Tended the governments action. He said
Italy had for many years been the friend

Great Britain was concerned, If. by
diplomacy. Italy could persuade China to

that Italy has not delivered an ultimatum
to China. On the contrary. the Italian
government has disavowed the action OF
Signor Martino regarding the Sanmun bay

at Picking until the successor of MARITIME
arrives there.
The news of Sgnor Marines recall came
as a complete surprise to the public 1t
Is understood his note asking China To re-
accept the first Italian note was regarded
by the Italian government as too concilia-
tory, but the general belief is that China
will interpret the recall as a sign OF weak
ness.

Tokyo. will be appointed to succeed Signor
