MUSSOLINI'S SPEECH

French Press Comment

(Special to the "Hong Kong Daily

· Press" (Copyright.)] ·

*Paris, Oct. 7. Mussolini's Milan speech is meet ing, on the whole, with a favour- able reception from the French press, the Excelsior" characteris- ing it as doubly, dexterous in that it does not expose itself to critic- "ism and at the same time leaves the door wide open för further ne- gotiations with France, Yugo-Sla- via, the Little Entente and even Germany.

"Le Journal" considers the speech to be one of the more nope- ful symptoms in European politics, and other papers express them- selves in a similar vein. "Pertinax" in "Echo de Paris," however, is more critically inclined, expressing the opinion that Mussolini's utter ances, on the eve of Barthou's Journey to Rome, is not affording Lts.-G. O.
