President’s Pledge
to Italians
New York. — Adolf Berle,
assistant secretary of state,
told the Italian-American Lab-
or Council that President Roo-
sevelt had authorized him to
say that no government will be
imposed on Italy, and that its
government should be one ac-
ceptable to the Italian people,
derived from and responsive to
its free will. Berle said that
Count Carlo Sforza gave an ex-
cellent example for all anti-
fascists when the noted Italian
liberal declared that “so long
as Badoglio was fighting the
common enemy, it would be
criminal for any Italian to
weaken his hand”.
