TO PEOPLE OF ITALY ROOSEVELT DENOUNCES MUSSOLINI. SELF-SEEKING BETRAYER OF HIS COUNTRY. (British Official Wireless.) (Received This Day. 10.50 a.m.) RUGBY. June 11. Expressing high satisfaction at the surrender of Pantelleria, President Roosevelt declared that the people of Italy, once their Fascist leaders had been overthrown, would be given a free choice of government, says a Washington message. Mr Roosevelt reminded Italians that the effects of the Allied campaign against Italy were the logical and inevitable result of Mussolini’s ruthless and traitorous course. Mussolini had betrayed his country in a struggle for personal power and aggrandisement. After referring to Mussolini’s “stab in the back,” Roosevelt said the Allied nations had no choice but to prosecute the war against Italy until complete victory had been won.
