|TALO-SOV|ET WAR
IS HELD UNLIKELY
Conflict May Rage Beneath
Mediterranean, but Hardly
in Open.
BY SONIA TOMARA.
n lx GO b kln u rrhc

ROME, September 11.-At mo-
nent when the improvement in
Anglo-Italian relations seemed tc
augur well for Europe's immediate
future, a turn for the worse sud-
denly came with dispute between
Italy and the Soviets. Again fears
have arisen that war would be the
outcome of this dispute. Yet it would
only be necessary to look at Europe
map to see that such fears are vain,
Unless a general conflagration
breaks out as in 19l4-and there is
no reason to foresee one-Russia and
Italy can hardly go TO war. They
have no common frontier. If Rus
sian ships went out into the Mediter-
ranean. they would be overwhelmed
su Ita1y's navy and aviation Italy
would never send ships to the Black
Sea. A secret and insidious war be-
sween the two nations may rage under
the surface of the blue Medterran-
ean, but here the Italians would
naturally have the upper hand since
1hey have bases and supplies at hand.
Russia could hardly do anything
against Italy except try to arouse
public opinion or muddle attempts
made by Italy and Great Britain to
come to an agreement.
Deeper Cleavage in View,
But even if open war does not
result from the present Italo-Rus-
sian incident, it is distinctly another
step on the way to a deeper cleavage
between the u. S. S. r. and mid
European powers. Even before it

luton to keep the Soviets out of

certainly be strengthened and il is
olfncult to guess what IL will lead
TO. 1t is the fear of seeing COM

change his attitude toward the
