Italy Warns
Derlocracies
Of ar Risk
Fascist Grand Council
Gives Notice of Loyal
ty to Rome Berlin
Axis

Rome, March 22-(AP)-Italy, in
effect, warned the democratic pow
ers today that joint action to check
the Rome-Berlin axis might incur
the risk of war.
The Fascist Grand Council, Pre-
mier Mussolinis council of war, is
sued a strong statement today after
long discussion of Adolf Hitler's
push eastward. Fascists interpreted
the statement as meaning that the
axis was prepared to fight, if neces-
sery, to realize Italy's aspirations to
colonial concessions from France.
1t is the general conviction among
fascists here that the furtherance of
these claims is the next task to be
taken up by the Rome-Berlin collab-
orators presumably after German
agitation for Mcneil is resolved into
action, possibly this week-end).
The Grand Council statement said:
"The Fascist Grand Council, in
the face of the threatened forma-
ton of Single united front of the
democracies associated with bolshe-
vism' directed against the authori-
tartan states-a united front which
is not the harbinger Of peace but of
War-declored that what has hap
pened i, c4ntral Europe has its ORR
gin in the Versailles treaty, and re-
affirms in this moment it's full adj
herence to the policy of the Rome

BY HENRY AVERILL.

Raleigh, March 22-General AS
sembly members hope to get out of
the legislative trenches by All-Fools

Yesterday both branches adopted
a joint resolution, sponsored by
House Appropriations Chairman
John Caffey, setting March 81 as
deadline for introduction of bills and
proposing sine die adjournment on
April 'as as soon thereafter as pos
Sible."
1t was the usual sine die resolu-
ton which is always introduced at
every session. Usually the Assembly
manages to 60 through with it and
quit by the date mentioned in the
resolution, though as often as not it
does so by completely ignoring i'm
portant statewide measures, many Of
which fail of passage in the STAN

On the other hand, the closing
days offer the opportunity of passing
much half-baked or "sneak" legis-
lation under cover. of the inordinate
desire to get things done and get
away from Raleigh.
AS matters now stand, there seems
no great or outstanding reason why
the Assembly can't finish its chores,
pack up its bag and go home week
from this Saturday.
