International Conference

APPEAL FALLS ON

DEAF EARS

ROME, June 15.

THE HUNGARIAN Regent's suggestion that the Pope should call an international conference apparently fell on deaf ears in Italy because no newspaper; even the "Observatore Romano," has made any reference to the suggestion.

Official quarters have also professed complete ignorance of such a suggestion having been made, which leads observers to two conclusions-firstly, either Italy wishes to await the Anglo- French reaction before support- ing their ally's suggestion or, secondly, Admiral Horthy spoke without consulting the Axis partners.
