ITALY AND THE DREIBUND.
GERMAN COMMENT ON THE NEW ATTITUDE AT
ROME


ROME.
Berlin, April 13.-The German press and Govern
ment are considerably worked UP about the
tinued Italian campaign against the Dreibund,
especially since the campaign has increased in i'm
portance. 1t is true the Government here
tinues to charge that France has lately redoubled
her efforts to influence the Italian press and that
the secret funds spent for this purpose being
enlarged; but ii is here denied that several of
the most influential papers close to the italian
Government like the "Popolo Romano" and the
Rome "Tribuna, have taken up the assault
against the Dreibund. The italian press particu-
larry denies the German claim that Italys strong
Mediterranean position is owing to the Drebund's
backing. and that without the Dreibund Italy
therefore would only be the voluntary involun-
tary tool of France.
The Italian press also points out that the Drei-
bund remains sterile economically and that, in
deed, trade with Germany is retrograding instead
of advancing
The "Tageblatt" today in an inspired article re-
peats in detail that Italy without the protection
which the Dreibund affords never would have at
tanned the powerful attitude in the Mediterranean
which she has, and never would have weathered
such crises the Adowah defeat and the Milan re-
volt without injury.
