Italy's former allies, he declared, had no right to say that Italy betrayed them for she never dis guised her views on Austrian aggres- sion against Serbia. In support of his argument he read a despatch sent to the Duke of Acarna, ambassador to Austria, on July 25, 1914, by the Marquis San Giuliano, the late min ister of foreign affairs, detailing an interview he had with Signor Salan- dra and Hans Won F7otow, then Ger man ambassador to Italy.
 At this interview, the speaker de- c1ared, it was pointed out to Herr Won F1otow that Austria, under the triple alliance treaty. had no right to take the step she had taken at Belgrade without previously coming to an agreement with her allies and that Austria's action clearly showed she desired to provoke war.
