Rome Views FDR's
Speech as Gravest
Ever Short of War

ROME. June II. tUP)-Authori-
tative Italian circles today said they
regarded the speech of President
Roosevelt at Charlottesville. Va,
last night as the grayeSt criticism
of Italy ever received from the
head of a state which was not at
war with Italy.
President Roosevelt had charac-
terized Italys action in entering
the war dagger thrust in the back
of neighbor and had promised
to give all material aid to the
Allies.
In Fascist political circles, where
the speech was heard over the ra-
dio. the feeling was prevalent today
that any hope the Italians had of
maintaining friendly relations with
the United States had vanished.
Italian quarters described MT.
Roosevelt'S reference TO "Stabbing
in the back" as an insult to the
Italian people.
The conviction in italian circles
is that the United States entry
into the war is inevitable.
Apparently. the Italian German
plan is TO move swiftly and conclude
the war before the United States
can get underway in the program
of full speed ahead" in war ma
terial production for the Allies.
