FINAL DECISION ON EX-ITALIAN COLONIES
London, Aug. 11-Britain is determined to reach a final decision on the disposal of the former Italian colonies when the United Nations Assembly meets in Lake Success next month, diplomatic sources said tonight.
They said the Foreign Secretary, Mr. Ernest Bevin, might, to force the issue, decline continuation of Bri- tish administration of the territories beyond the set date. Such procedure was applied by the British Gov- ernment over termination of the Palestine mandate.
