Scope and Contents

Letter from Sir Leo Chiozza Money (The Old Quarry, Bramley, near Guildford, Surrey) to WSC, on his speech on Abyssinia [later Ethiopia, at the City Carlton Club]. He explains his own position, as part-Italian, and wonders why there should be a quarrel with Italy at all. He did appreciate the tone of WSC's speech, and adds that Italian friends tell him that Britain's position has only made the Fascist government stronger. He appeals to WSC to support a mandate for Italy in Abyssinia, as the easiest solution; otherwise he fears that Benito Mussolini will want more, or be driven into an alliance with Germany.
