‘WAR’ TALK OF ITALY'S CHIEF . IS UNDER FIRE European Press Heaps Coals on Dictator for Speech. PARIS, May 19.—Most Parisian newspapers refrained from commenting today on the speech of Premier Mussolini at Florence, Italy, in which he promised fulfillment of his government’s naval building program and declared that Italy’s friendship is precious but her enmity is hard. newspapers which did comment,' however, seized the opportunity to picture Mussolini in an unfavorable light, by comparison with Aristide Briand’s move for peace through the United States of Europe. “If any one attached importance to the Florence speech, then the chances of establishing a moral union and a psychological security will be greatly reduced,” Le Journal Des Debates said. “Mussolini tears down the principles on which most modern states •re established. What presages this thundering query?” “As it i6 necessary to justify his armaments, II Duce again pretends that Italy is menaced by aggression,” Le Quotidien said. “His methods are ridiculous and dangerously reactionary." The newspaper Populaire called Mussolini a “ little man who can stand on his toes, and look bigger and raise his voice and sound fiercer, but ha still is ridiculous.” See Threat to France Bn United Brets LONDON, May 19.—Although Premier Benito Mussolini’s speech at Florence, Italy, Saturday was interpreted in many quarters here today as partly intended for home consumption, it also was considered an attemptto intimidate France on the parity question at the forthcoming post-naval conference negotiations. The latter possibility was believed to explain the reluctance of official circles to comment, on the theory that to do so might jeopardize An-glo-Franco-Italian conversations. It was remarked in some quarters, however, that the fact that the speech coincided with Aristide Briand’s United States of Europe circular may have influenced Mussolini’s enthusiasm, the idea being that Italy might have desired to assert herself on the eve of any possible negotiations for an European union. Mussolini’s reference to Italy’s population, it was believed, was a clear indication that he intends to seek European recognition of Italy’s rank as a European power based on the , number of its inhabitants as compared with other European total populations. German Press Is Mute By United Brets BERLIN, May 19.—The German press published a brief and incomplete summary of Premier Mussolini’s militai'y speech at Florence, Italy, and omitted editorial comment today.

COOL GREETING TO PROPOSAL OF UNITEDJUROPE Survey of Opinion Shows No Enthusiasm for Briand Plan. By United Pres* LONDON, May 19.—The first unofficial reaction to the definite plans of Aristide Briand, French foreign minister, for a union of European countries was hesitant, if not unfavorable. A survey of opinion in Britain and continental countries indicated little enthusiasm for the plan, and many observers were pessimistic in view of several striking nationalistic occurrences of the week-end. The speeches of Premier Mussolini of Italy, and of Premier Andre Tardieu of France—both strongly chauvinistic—were contrasted by observers the Briand scheme for an international union by which Europe could ‘‘unite to live and prosper.” The press of Great Britain indicated belief that a federation such as Briand’s questionnaire of Saturday proposed was not desirable at present, and probably would not attract England later. Both empire affairs and Anglo-American relations caused British hesitation. Germany’s desire to see the league of nations bind European countries and the ever-present fear of her conservative elements that France would dominate any European union at present, prompted reserve in press comment in Berlin. The press of Rome reserved comment but the general opinion of observers there was that the plan would be received without enthusiasm. Other European countries were reserved in comment or altogether silent, some of the small nations still fearful of being dominated by large powers in any United States of Europe.
