ITALY NOT TO STAY
* PRISONER, SAYS DUCE
FASCIST NEWSPAPERS AVER
SPEECH BY DALADIER
WIDENED BREACH
ROME, March 31.—Premier Mus-
solini served notice Thursday Italy
“does not intend to remain a pris-
oner in the Mediterranean” but fail-
• ed to indicate how far she intended
to expand.
Fascisms newspaper spokesman,
Virginio Gayda, meanwhile sounded
the keynote of Italian reaction to
French Premier Daladier's address
Wednesday night by declaring Dala-
dier tended to “shut tight the hall-
closed door” to negotiations over
Italo-French differences.
II Duce spoke briefly in Cosenza.
. where he laid the cornerstone of a
new normal school.
Earlier, on the Calabrian coast, he
had placed a wreath at the tomb
of Michele Bianchi, one of the Fas-
cist quadrumvirs who led the march
on Rome.
In his speech he recalled Bianchi's
words:
“When one man has given all to
the Fatherland, he has not yet giv-
en enough.”
^ He concluded his address with the
injunction:
“Comrades, be ready in every in-
stant of your lives, as Fascists and
as Italians, worthy of and faithful
to his memory.”
Gayda in his editorial declared
that despite the fading hopes for
Italo-French negotiations “Italy is
not impatient.”
“It is very clear by now,” he con-
tinued, "that the French govern-
^ ment does not wish to discuss fur-
ther either territories or rights. It
wishes to separate itself from Italy
and stiffen itself with its ‘—never’.”
II Resto Dei Carlino, important
Bologna newspaper, said the chasm
between France and Italy had wid-
ened.
“France therefore has assumed
the very grave responsibility of all
inevitable consequences of policy
which Daladier’s speech seems to
b stiffen still more,” II Resto said.

Several people have inquired of
us this morning just who does write
this column and it’s all because a
staff member on the Pampa News
gave the publisher credit for this
feature in his column yesterday----
it was certainly a blow to our pride
all right and we feel just as Insulted
as if he had accused us of writing
JAUB____a chatty column of this
kind takes a sharp intellect, keen
mind and steady nerves.
We’ve always had a fondness for
chocolate rabbits and chickens such

generosity for the child we took a
choice piece out oi the sack and the
child, who had fully expected us to
refuse, looked grimly at us and cried
“You took the very piece I was get-
ting ready to eat!” . . . the mother
looked slightly surprised and we felt
like a perfect bully.
