ITALY CONDEMNS NOBILE.
POLAR DISASTER RESPONSIBILITY.
Rome, Feb. 16. The Italian Government has published the full report of the Nobila Polar Expedition Commis ston of Inquiry. In it the work, ability, and character of General Nobile are ruthlessly condemned.
To-day General Nobile said to
me:
"At last, after a year 1 am able to see for the Arst time the criticisme levelled against me. Not only are they calumnious but they are ridiculous. I was never called before the Commission to hear the LAMMERT BROS., ovidence against me nor was I Auctioneers.given an opportunity of question- ing witnesses. Now I can answer these falsifications point by point, and latend to do so for publication in Italy, or, if that is not allowed. elsewhere. The truth will prevail."

Followers Blamed,
In the published report on the Italia-disaster General Nobile is criticised as having on his return to the base on board the Citta di Milano, and late in Italy, tried not only by his attitude but by utter- ances and newspaper articles to in-f criininate his followers. His at- titude
towards Commanders Mariano and Zappi, the report says, practically gave it to be understood that they had started on their ex- pedition in search of help without his consent.
He also attacked the captain of the Città di Milano and the wire- less operators to whom the estab lishment of communication between the outside world and the tent on the ice were exclusively due. Finally ho criticised and under- estimated before foreigners the splendid work done by the Italian airmen who made great sacrifices in the attempt to bring him help.
Of Commander Mariano it is stated that, though he was entitled by his rank in the Italian Navy to the position of second in command, he was never given any instruc- tions to that effect. It is em- of this, phasised that, in spite throughout the flight of the airship and the culminating disaster, he displayed magnificent qualities of Kow-leadership and eminent knowledge
of technical matters.

After describing the death of the Swedish scientist, Dri Malmgren, asi related by Mariano and Zappi, the report states that.. their word of honour, as officers of the Italian Navy of many years' service, was accepted by the Commission as a complete refutation of the accusa- brought tion of cannibalism against them in certain quarters. In this they are supported by the mother of Malmgren.-Reuter.
