ITALY D|SGRUNTLED
AT INDEMNITY SHARE
PARLIAMENT CONTENDS ITALY's
SHARE SHOULD FOLLOW
THAT OF FRANCE.
NOTE TO COUNT sFORzA
Foreign Minister Asked to Work
Against Export Tax as Harmful
to italian mporters-CanceI
Debts, Suggestion.

Rome.-Italy is far from being sat
isffed with certain terms of the agree
ment relative to German reparations,
as indicated by a note sent by the
parliamentary committee Of foreign af-
fairs and finance, of which Signor Luz
zati' is chairman. to Count Sforza. the
Italian foreign minister. at London.
The hote says that Italian public
topinion and the Italian parliament
look with disfavor on the share of 10
per cent Of the German indemnity as
signed to Italy They consider this
an injustice and contend that the Ital-
ian share should not have been less
than % per cent, as England, which
was not invaded by the enemy and had
no greater losses than Italy. Is to re-
ceive % per cent.
1t is further contended that Italy's
share should come Immediately after
that of France. which receives % per
cent, as France alone exceeded Italy's
losses. The note considers it absurd
to grant a share to Eerbia, whose,
damages were less than the value of
the Austrian government property ac
quired by Serbia. 1t also alludes to
the share Italy is entitled to have Of
state and private properties in the
German colonies.
The note explains the Italian oppo-
sition to the y per cent tax on Ger
man exports as provided for in the
Paris agreement. The other allies. it
says. compete with Germany in the
same products and the same markets
and are therefore interested in strik
ing a blow at German expectations.
Italy intends to buy German prod /
ucts, and. in consequence, the II per
cent tax on German exports would in
reality be paid by Italian importers
Emphasis is laid on the probability I
of italian financial difficulties so long |
as the question Of debts remains un- /
settled 1t would be to England's in |
terest. the note says, to cancel the in
debtedness of Italy and France and |
obtain the same. concessions from the
United States. this being necessary to
re- establish European production and
normalize exchange, without which,,
It declares, American commerce will
be injured.
