ROME. (UP)—Premier Benito Mussolini took Italy’s
45,000,000 people into the European war today in a bid for a
new Roman empire around the Mediterranean.
Declaring war on Great Britain and France, the Fascist
Premier told a madly cheering throng before Venice Palace
that Italian forces were marching with Germany to “break
the chains’’ that bind her in the Mediterranean and to obtain
free access to the sea at Suez and Gibraltar.
But, he said, Italy does not desire to “drag other neigh-
boring nations” into the war and he named in this connection
Switzerland. Jugoslavia, Greece, Turkey and Egypt.
An official announcement after Mussolini’s speech said
that Foreign Minister Galeazzo Ciano had handed the British
and French Ambassadors a message saying that “his Majes-
ty the King and Emperor (Victor Emmanuel) declares that
Italy considers herself in a state of war as of tomorrow
(Tuesday.)’’
Both Turkey and Egypt are allies of Britain and Greece
has beengiven an Allied pledge to protect her independence.
Thus, Mussolini appeared to be trying to limit the war to the
British and French although Turkey has a mutual aid agree-
ment to aid them if conflict spreads to the eastern Mediter-
ranean.
Furthermore, the Fascist Premier indicated that Italy’s
first effort would be on land (against French Nice and Sa-
voy) in a drive to support the German legions pushing down
from the north.
Mussolini wore a black Fascist uniform with the red
stripes of a corporal of honor on his sleeves as he spoke from

At some points, the High Com-
mand said, the German advance
turned into a “pursuit” of the
enemy. The official press said
that the Germans were smashing
nearer to Paris, Rouen and Le
Havre and had taken huge quan-
tities of food, ammunition and

in position to replace both the

Rome officials estimated that 15(1,000 persons were jam-

lions who heard Ihe Premier speak by radio throughout the
country.
“The hour of destiny has arrived for our Fatherland,” _5
Mussolini said. "We are going to war against the decrepit
Democracies ... to break the chains that,tie us inx,theMediter-
ranean."
The Premier, speaking in a strained, powerful voice, said
that there is but one watchword for Fascists:
“It is to win!”
"We salute the Fuehrer of Germany,” he added. “Fascist *
Italy is on her feet and prepared to strike.”
The Premier, who once said that Italy had 10,000,000
bayonets ready for action, declared that “this gigantic strug-
gle is a logical part in our revolution.”
"This revolution,” he continued, "asserts itself against
those who control the riches of the earth.
“It is a struggle of one century against another.”
“We take up arms to solve the problems of our continen-
tal frontiers and our maritime frontiers,” the Premier said.
“We shall win and we shall give a long period of peace
and prosperity to Italy and the world.
“People of Italy: To Arms!
“Your tenacity, bravery and courage will prevail.”
The Premier announced that the Ambassadors of Britain
and France had been informed of the declaration of war.
“In this hour, we turn our thoughts to the King-Emper- j
or,” Mussolini said of King Victor Emmanuel.
“As always, the King has interpreted the soul of the “
Fatherland.”'
- The Premier said that the King had correctly viewed the
attitude of Italy as sympathetic toward Germany and that
“for the third time Fascist Italy enters war as one man.”
Italy wanted to keep the conflict from spreading to other
countries, he said, but a great people cannot permit others to
hamper its development.
Britain and France, he said, had tried to halt the prog-
ress of the Italian people and Italy has decided to accept the
sacrifices and hardships of war together with the Germans.
”I solemnly declare,” Mussolini said, “that Italy does not
intend to drag other neighboring nations into the war.
“Switzerland, Jugoslavia, Greece, Turkey and Egypt
must take note of my words, which will be maintained.
“Italy, Proletarian and Fascist, is strong, ready and
united as never before.”
Mussolini put emphasis on his contention that the Allied
powers should have joined in correcting the World War
treaties for the benefit of Italy and Germany.
