ITALIAN UPROAR
SCENE AT SYDNEY FUNCTION FESTIVITIES OR MOURNING? (United P.A.—By Telegraph — Copyright) SYDNEY, To-day. Uproarious scenes occurred at a social gathering at Paddington Town Hall, at which the Italian community was welcoming the new Italian Consul-General last evening. All was serene till about midnight, when two men, in Fascist uniform, entered and shouted protest against the holding of social festivities while the fate of the airship Italia was in doubt. An angry disturbance followed, and the police were called in, and tactfully announced that the Town Hall authorities had decreed that the gathering should cease.
The festivities immediately terminated before damage occurred to anybody or anything.
