GENERAL SAVEY
DEPLORES ACTS
AGAINST ITALY
Rome, Sunday, July 6 General
Savy, commander of the French
troops at Fiume, says in an interview
with the Giornale D'ltalia that the
act of some of his soldiers who re
cently offended Italians in that city
by cheering- for Jugo Slavia -was
"most deplorable." He points out,
however, that it would be a "mistake
to generalize and make the fault of
a few that of the whole French con
tingent." General Savy says he did his best
to be neutral in the question of Fiume,
especially as he has in his command
some Serbian troops, but he adds
that he understands the position of
tWe Italians and that "if he were in
their place he would have acted like
wife." Expressing his regret for the
incident, he says:
"I am sorry there should be any
feeling between two people who have
faternized at the front against the
common enemy. Italy ought to be
compensated for her sacrifices, and
when Fiume is assigned to Italy, I
shall be the first to rejoice" from the
bottom of my heart."
