Italy Asks Commission

Decision On Ships To Go To Russia

Rome, October 8. --

Italy has tossed the problem of deciding what naval warships she should delivar to Soviet Russia back to the Allied Naval Commission for the Italian Peace Treaty in Rome after the brook- down of direct negotiations with Russia.. This disclosure was made by an Italian Foreign Of- fice spokesman yesterday following the new de- mand by the Soviet Foreign Minister V., M. Molotov for the delivery of Italian ships due to Russia under the treaty.
