~ ARIS.-Premier Benito MuSSolini S
- rather heavy and clumsy irony
at Milan, replying to the world
4 almost unanimous condemnation
of his sword-rattling speeches at
ieghorn and Florence, completely misses
the point, and doubtless Intentionally so.
What the Duce's critics deplore is not
Italy's military preparations, but the
aggressive and provocative tone adopted
by the Italian leaders and press.
The real danger of such utterances
lies not so much in the risk Of creating
ill-feeling, as in the tendency they have
to quicken q bellicoSe spirit in the
italian people. Everybody remembers
how Tom Sawyer's gang finally broke
up because the members got tired Of
sticking up their guns and swords with
out ever getting a chance to rob or
kill anybody.
Duce Wildly Acclaimed.
Is there not danger that the Italian
people will ultimately become exasper-
ated IL their chiefs keep on forever
clustering without doing anything, and
rafting the sword without drawing it?
May not Mussolini some day be forced
to choose between q foreign and civil
war?
The Duce was wildly acclaimed during
his recent tour and even making allow
ances for Fascist discipline, which makes
IL possible Ill Italy 10 make popular
demonstrations to order, it is certain
that the Italian temper today is sufh-
GENTLY warlike to constitute real peril.
It Is not hard to imagine what a grave
situation might be created II some de-
mented Serb should assassinate the
Italian consul and Italy should feel
obliged to demand humiliating capitula-
tions from the Jugoslav government.
At Mercy of Chance Incident.
France and Jugoslavia have de-
fensive alliance and it can be stated
with confidence that. with BRAND at
the Quai dOrsay, France would 60 to
almost any lengths to obviate war; But
there are limits In everything and one
cannot feel certain that the Italians in
their present state of mind would know
&vhere to stop. Thus Europe is, indeed,
Nt the mercy of some chance incident
that it is quite impossible to guard
against.
Information was Forthcoming today
that orders have gone out to the entire
French press to pay as little attention
Is possible to Italian provocations, and
officials here affect to consider them as
eantended purely for home consumption.

GRANDI'S SPEECH

Italian Minister Takes Different
 View From MuSS0Iini

Rome June 4 lP - What were considered as conflicting statements of Premier Mussolini and his for eign minister, Dino Grandi, with re- gard 10 the Italian navy excited some attention here today
 Grandi, speaking in defense of the Italian naval program at the conclusion Of a budget address yes- terday said:
 The Italian government is dis posed 10 postpone laying down it's program for naval construction in 1230 provided the French govern ment does the same for the program for 1880. Considering the relative strength of the two fleets such a concession would have a greater eff feet on the Italian navy than on the French"
 To Do Work Regardless
 Premier Mussolinl in q speech at Florence q few days ago declared:
 There has been some doubt aboard that Italy would carry out her naval program, but 1t will be constructed ton for ton with mathe- matical precision to the pride Of the Italian people"
 In his speech Grandi defended at considerable length the Italian de- mand for parity with France, and maintained that the stand was an old one and not one of the fascist administration alone. He cited min- utes of the Washington naval con- ference to show that Italy's claim for parity had been cedcd for the classes Of ships treated at that meet ing.
 He asserted that Italy had asked France 10 continue the naval con- versations begun at London at a special meeting of ltalo-French rep resentatives and experts. but that France had refused, contending the

Marshal George YoX questioned validity of the warrants issued by |. s. Com missioner Edward F. Bootey Of Jamestown.
