ITALY WILL WITHDRAW
PREMIER SAYS TODAY
Continued from Page y
Premier dives Views

ROME, Sept. II (By The Asso-
ciated Press):-Premier Mussolini
today addressed the council of min
listers, summarizing all phases of the
Greeo-Italian conflict and the sue
cessful results he had obtained in
the diplomatic battle at Geneva and
Paris.
The minister of war, General Diaz,
and the minister of marine, Admiral
Theon De Revel. expressed to the
premier their great satisfaction for
the energetic manner in which he
had conducted the affair, which they
said had given to foreign countries
signal proof of Ita1y's power and
moral soliditys and its readiness al
ways to defend its interest and its
honor.
The council of ministers unani-
mously approved the decisions which
had been made by Premier Musso-
inl throughout the course of the
crisis. i
The semi official reports reaching
here on the action OF the council of
ambassadors at Paris emphasize the
ucces obtained by Italy. They state
that Greece had asked for an imme-
date evacuation of Corfu, which the
council of ambassadors refused,
holding that the evacuation would
be carried out only after the repara-
ton to Italy had been carried out.
Also it is stated in these advices
that the council of ambassadors
held that the payment of SO, 000,-
000 lire to Italy should be inflicted
as a penalty on Greece, and without
any Intervention of the internation-
al court of justice at The Hague,
which Greece has sought to invoke.
Italy's rights OF resource r also
preserved as to requiring repayment
from Greece of the expenses of the
Italian occupation Of Corfu.
The messagero says the decisions
at Paris constitute a notable sue
cess for Italy. 1t disclosed Musso-
lini firm and unyielding when Italy's
national pride was touched, and
yet conciliatory and prudent when
the outside world spoke of 1.-The Ital-
ian menace in the Mediterranean
1t declares that Europe has learned
a lesson from this episode, of a
policy that can be strong without
being violent.
