ANXIETY OF ITALY
COST OF THE SPANISH WAR. ‘■For all the flamboyance of her officialised press," says the “Spectator" “Italy has abundant grounds for anxiety—the Spanish war has already cost her more in men and money than the Abyssinian—and for all his public eulogies of the Anti-Comintern Pact Signor Mussolini knows perfectly well that it is his axis-partner and not himself who is going to dominate Southeastern Europe. He would be far less than the astute politician he has shbwn himself to be. if he did not welcome the chance of a little reinsurance in the shape of friendship with Great Britain. That is obviously a situation in which, as the Prime Minister would put it, out of this nettle, misunderstanding, may be plucked the flower, appeasement.”
