BRITAIN & ITALY
PROPOSED AGREEMENT EFFECT ON RELATIONS WITH FRANCE. MR CHAMBERLAIN ANSWERS QUESTIONS. (British Official Wireless.) (Recd This Day, 10.50 a.m.) RUGBY, July 18. No representations have been made by France to Britain that the entering into i force of the Anglo-Italian Agreement before the conclusion of a similar accord between France and Italy would be regarded as an unfriendly act, Mr N. Chamberlain (Prime Minister) told the House of Commons. Asked if he was aware that allegations to that effect had been published in Rome and if he would convey the facts to Italy, Mr Chamberlain replied: “Italy is quite aware of the facts.” In answer to another question, in connection with a- preface written by Mussolini to a collection of minutes of the Fascist Grand Council, Mr Chamberlain said that, as he had previously stated, the Government was not in a position to give full effect to the Anglo-Italian Agreement until it could regard the Spanish question as settled. It was the Government’s sincere hope that acceptance of the plan for the withdrawal of volunteers would accelerate such a settlement.
