NAZI VICTIM
LONDON, Dec. 18 (Reuter)- The ponalbilly of a Nazi seizure of Italy is discussed in a Times leader to-day, which states.---.. For two years past and more than ever since Uie war began Italy has been honeycombed with Naxi ogenis of overy. description, known and unknown. The Nazi pre-invasion methods of in- Altration and permention ulitised ko successfully in Norway and Holland have certainly been practised in Italy,
"In place of the
much- canvassed drives against Gibral- tar or Constantinople Hitler may seek to reach the Mediterranean by a less devious roule. If the Italians do not move quickly against the menace from within-
and it is difficult to see from what quarter the initiative can come they may wake up morning to find that Italy bax become occitaled territory and that Mussolini hold the rank and status of a` Quisilug.”
