Foreign News Notes, Sep. 22, 1924

Benito granted an 80-minute interview last week to King Vittorio Emanuele III, on the latter's return to Rome. Benito told his Sovereign what conditions were, and later issued a manifesto stating that order must be maintained.

Following an interview with Benito, Alexandre Constantinescu, Rumanian Minister of Agriculture, declared that Italy and Rumania must cooperate. The usual alluring remarks were made about Italian development of the riches of Rumania and the hopes for an Italo- Rumanian Treaty. In conclusion, Constantinescu said that the Rumanian monarchs, "King Marie and Queen Ferdinand," would visit Italy in the near future.—

—A former visit was postponed (TIME, Apr. 7), following Benito's "insult" to Marie and Ferdinand by objecting to Rumania's attempt to repudiate all foreign commercial debts.
