Claim Muss0lini Would
Be Napoleon the Second

Sor peace will depend on the italian
view of the communication.
Great Britain, for the moment, is
not directly concerned in the dis
pute and there is. little likelihood
she will be personally involved, al
though statesmen realized the
|. dangers of new general European
cOnflagration.
France is in the most delicate pos
ition of the outside powers, since
she has close ties with both the
little entente and Italy and is sure
to- create bitter resentment which
ever side she supports. 1t equally
is impossible for Premier Poincare
to remain neutral. ..
The chief danger, as viewed by
statesmen here, lies in the unre-
strained exercise of Premier Musso-
lini s enthusiasm for entrance into
II campaign of Italian prestige and
expansion. This is the program
France wants to curb.
Some British circles charge Mus
solini with imitation of Napoleon IS
policy of bolstering up his position
at home by external wars.
