Foreign Minister.
~ the Associated Press.

ROME, June 4.-What we're eonsid-
cred as conflicting statements Of Pre-
mier Mussolini and his foreign minister,
Dino Grandi. with regard to the italian
Navy, excited some attention here to-
day.
Grand, speaking in defense Of the
italian naval program at the conclu-
sion Of q budget speech yesterday said:
"The italian government Is disposed
to postpone laying down its program for
naval construction in 1880, provided the
French government does the same for
the program for 1880. Considering the
9 concession would have q greater eff
feet on the italian Navy than on the
French"
Premier Mussolini In a speech at
Florence few days ago declared:
There has been some doubt abroad
that Italy would carry out her naval
program, but it will be constructed ton
for ton with mathematical precision to
the pride of the italian people"
In his speech, Grandi defended at
considerable length the Italian demand
for parity with France, and maintained
that the stand was an old one and not

He asserted that Italy had asked
France to continue the naval CONVERSE
tions begun at London at special
meeting of Italo-French representatives
and experts. but that France had re-
fused, contending the negotiations
should be made through TIE regular
diplomatic ambassador channels.
1t was in this connection that he
made what was considered in some
quarters as a new offer TO France to
match its reductions in the 1890 pro-
gram step for step, an offer which some
took to be In conflict with previous

France Reacts FavoAbly 10 Naval
Speech by Grandi.

PARIS, June (P-A decided lessen
ing of the tension between France and
italy today was noticeable following the
speech yesterday of Foreign Minister
Dino Grand concerning naval affairs
The first reaction was decidedly ia
vorable, although 1t was quickly pointed
out in political and military circles that
Minister Grandi's proposition was not
new, already having been made at the
London Naval Conference and found
unacceptable.
The feeling was aroused, however,
that France would receive cordially any
official proposal emanating from italy
concerning naval affairs In the same
spirit of Cancellation and endeavor to
reach an equitable agreement as 1t
greets all diplomatic communications.
No offlcial comment was forthcoming
today.

THE committee on lobbying, Of

REFRIGERATOR SALES
ARE 40 PER CENT HIGHER

Sales OF mechanical refrigeratorS,
especially of household units, have thus
far in 1880 made striking gains as COM
pared with results in the like period OF
1929, according to a current survey by
the Standard Statistics Co. Of New
York, which follow, in part:
Reports released by most of the
leading producers indicate that output
and sales on an average are running
some 40 to so per cent ahead of this
time last year. This condition in the
refrigeration trade is in marked con-
trast with the slow recuperation OF
industry in general, apparently indl-
eating that the growing demand for the
most modern methods in fresh food
preservation is such as to be little
affected by a widespread recession in
numerous industrial fields.
Vast potential strength unquestion-
ably lies in an industry which can make
a showing of this kind in the face o.
curtailed buying in the majority of lead
ing lines. Moreover, with the outlook
now becoming favorable for a seasonal
| uptrend of general industrial activity
| TO get under way at an early date and
to reach approximately normal proper
| tons even If considerably less pro-
nounced than in 1929, it is likely that
the refrigeration business will continue
to register marked expansion"
