press the firm resolve of all the al
lies" said the Italian cabinet MEM

'The peace to which the whole
world aspires after so many horrors
and sacrifices, must be real and last
irg. not a mere truce. Civilization
must safeguard itself against attempts
similar to the one against which she
is now reacting with all her strength.
This means that we must create in
Europe such conditions as to render it
impossible for Germany to resume her
criminal designs. 1 therefore think
that any state or states of the entente
who would today harbor the thought
of peace would be guilty of an act of
treason. Rather than accept a peace
contaminated by the germ of other
wars. it would have been better not to
embark on the present war at all.

be killed by destroying Austria as a
