REPLY TO MUSSOLINI
ACTS IN JUGO-SLAVIA. ITALIAN ALLEGATIONS. STATED TO BE EXAGGERATED. (United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph-—Copyright.) Received December 22, 11.20 a.m. BELGRADE, Dec. 21.
Replying to Signor Mussolini’s speech in tho Senate, M. Jevtitoh, Minister for Foreign Affairs, said that there had been a deliberate attempt on slight pretexts to arouse hatred against Jugo-Slavia throughout Italy. Jugoslavia would remain calm in the face of provocation, but would not fold her arms and refuse to defend her most sacred rights. M. Jevtitch declares that the Italian allegations are grossly exaggerated.
Signor Mussolini, addressing tho Senate, referred to acts of barbarism in Jugoslavia. He said that an official protest had beon forwarded to Belgrade against the demonstrations of unceasing hostility to Italy. Signor Mussolini added that certain ‘Europeans,” posing as pacifists had invented a ridiculous story that Italy was preparing an attack on Jugo-Slavia. Dospito tho provocation, Italy would not lose her head, but would watch events calmly.
