MUSSOLINI VISIT MAY WORRY BERLIN Situation Involving Welcome Would Be Hard for Bruen- ing, Hitler Foe. By the Associated Press. | BERLIN, October 1.— Mussolini | himself is the most ticklish problem in- | volved in his proposed vis't to Berlin. | Crice on German sofl the problem be- comes & domestic one for the Bruening | government, he being to millions of National-Socialists the embodiment of militant fascism. i Adolf Hitler and his followers, who adopted brown shirts as uniforms in imitation of Mussolini’s black shirted | legions, and who have been agitating | for years for a dictatorship of the Mus- | solini type, would consider the appear- | ance of 1l Duce in Berlin as a veritable incarnation of their slogan “Germany awake!” ‘When the Bruening government in- vited Italy's dictator to return the visit which the German chancellor and Julius Curtius, foreign minister, made to Rome, the Hitlerite press pointed out the “ridic- ulousness” of a government trying to stifie the German Fascist movement with one hand and extending the other | in friendship to the world's chief ex- ponent of Fascism, Reds Also in Picture. | Not that Hitler's men would try to spoll Mussolini's visit; the danger is rather that they might welcome him too enthusiastically. Both Mussolini and Bruening might fell embarrassed if they were met by crowds of “nazis” shouting “Down witn Bruening! Long live Mussolini!” Equally serious, moreover, might be the reaction of Germany’s Communists to such enthusiasms. To the Commu- nists, too, the Italian statesman is the symbol of Fascism, but as su-h he is) hated by many who might othe.wise be | willing to cheer lustily for Italy. ‘The Communists would object o Mussolini_and, even more violently, to the “nazi” enthusiasm for him. | Mussolini might be willing to take | any personal risks (he has been shot at | in Italy), but probably he will delay | his ‘arrival until the politico-economic | situation in Germany has cooled down | so that his visit would not embarrass his official hosts. | | French Returning Call. In any event, there are between Italy and Germany no great difficulties to be | smoothed out. The visit, therefore, when and if it comes would constitute a gesture of friendship between two governments which already are on cor- dial terms. In this respect it would differ ma- terfally from the forthcoming visit of Aristide Briand and Premier Laval of France. That, too, is a return call, but when Bruening and Curtius went to Paris the air was full of such subjects s vest-pocket battleships, the Austro- | Gezman customs union and the ever- hdlering ghost of war reparations re- | vision. Sighs of relief arose on both sides of the Rhine as the German statesmen went on to London without attempting much more than a friendly shike of the hard. There will be equal relief if the Laval-Briand pligrimage turns out as happily. PAGES ARE APPOINTED- FOR U. D. C. CONVENTION | Virginia Division Will Hold Par-| ley at Lynchburg Four Days Next Week..

ROME, October 1.—Things are great- ly changed in Albania since the Sultan Abdul Hamid kept a last detachment of ietnuchs at Durazzo and administered |all the tribes in the mountains and on | the shores around Scutari by a single | bey, who saw that he enriched himself | and the Sultan, The tribes of Albania | have become a nation and have a King of thelr own without the help of the fvu‘rzpeln powers or the gpurt or Prince ed. King Zog is the man who is doing it | all, with the help of Mussolini, and this | Is why he writes to him as “My dear and greatest friend.” | Albania has become a kingdom chief- ly by the will of Muasolini. It has also become an ally of Italy on the other | side of the Adriatic, and the alliance, if occasion should offer, would not be an idle thing. King Zog can gather an army of 50,000 or 100,000 men, and all he wants is rifles and ammunition. | These he can have from Italy; in fact, he has them already. The friendship, | therefore, is not without significance. Zog's Gratitude for Loan. Some time ago King Zog found that his country was going through a crisis, just like the big countries of the world His treasury was empty and he needed | & loan, for which ne applied to his dear and greatest friend in Italy, and Musso- lini said he should have the loan. It was granted in less than a week and the coffers of King Zog are once more full. Hence he sent his grateful acknowl- edgment in the following words: “To His Excellence, Head of the Itallan Government: “My Dear and Greatest Friend—The magnificent act of the Fascist govern- ment in granting financial aid to Al- bania, without which it was impossible to realize its ideal of progress, of labor, | of national organization, has aroused in the entire nation a feeling of profound gratitude toward your person, your gov- ernment and the noble Italian nation. I am happy to make this known to you, and to assure you that it will help strengthen the indissoluble ties whicn “An Hour of Work Is of Dole”—Paint Up This Fall! THURSDAY, unite our two friendly and allied coun- tries.” Mussolini's Reply . If the first sign that & nation is progressing is that it is able to borrow money, then Albania has proved that it Is progressing. Of course, Italy does not make loans for mere pleasure. Much of it will come back in the shape of salaries to Italian engineers who are building roads and creating industries in Albania, and & part of the loan will be used also in making purchases of material in Italy. Mussolini therefore with justice re- plied: “Your high message directed to me is grateful evidence of the spirit in which the act of the Fascist government was received, and it finds a pleasant and grateful response in me and in the Ital- ian people, It seals ths harmony of sentiments and interests by which the two nations on each side of the Adriatic are strongly bound together by solemn treaties, ani it is with great pieasure that we note the progress of the A% banian nation, our neighbor and ally.” ‘The protectorate of Italy which Giolitti renounced in 1919 seems to have come back and to be stronger by the treaty of alliance solidly established Ly Mussolini, (Copyright, 1931.)
