The exchange of letters between Mr. Neville Chamberlain, British Prime Minister, and Signor Benito Mussolini, the Italian Dictator, has created a new 'atmosphere in Anglo-Italian relations, it is hoped in London.

Berlin, Aug. 8.

A report from Tientsin, alleging that the German Consul there, Dr. Storer, was in negotiation with Ja- panese circles to hand over the German "concession" to the Japa- nese authorities, is denied.

GERMAN INTEREST

IN ANGLO-ITALIAN

RAPPROACHMENT

Bertin, Aug. 3. The German Press connues to show interest in the attempt of Britain and Italy to settle their differences, and the Press is un- animous in expressing satisfac- tion over the new line of policy.

Regarding the British desire to proceed to the elimination of the Abyssinian question, the London correspondent of the "Deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung alleges that the question of granting some compensation of a personal char- acter to the Negus is playing a part in these matters, adding that it is quite possible that it will open up a way for financial quarters of the city to lend support to the development of Abyssinia.
