TRAPPED BY POLICE
FORMER ITALIAN OFFICIAL MUSSOLINI’S ACCUSER (United P.A.—By Telegraph — Copyright) (Australian and N.Z. Press Association.) GENEVA, Friday. The Italian police arrested Commander Cesare Rossi and his daughter at Campione. Signor Rossi was formerly secretary of the Prime Minister’s Press Bureau. Campione is an Italian village surrounded by Swiss territory, and can be visited by persons without a passport, who even in wartime could visit it unmolested by the Italian police. The Swiss Press is therefore questioning their power to arrest Rossi. According to one newspaper Italian agents lured Rossi from Lugano, on the pretext of a motor excursion. When he arrived at Campione they declared him to be under arrest, and took him to Italy. It is recalled that while Rossi was taking refuge in France he accused Signor Mussolini of being accessory to the murder of the deputy, Matteotti, which Signor Mussolini strenuously denied.
