The British press denounces Italy's
action in unmeasured terms, asserting
that Italy's ultimatum sets forth no
reason for the step, which Turkey can

general view expressed is that Italy
evidently is bent upon forcibly selling
the Tripoli coast, and has ruled dlplo-
macy out of court by her precipitate
action, which gives Turkey no chance
to negotiate terms.
