Foreign News: Italian Siberia
The Bureau of the Socialist and Labor International in Zurich, Switzerland, enumerated last week the names of 15 Italian Deputies of the Opposition whom Premier Mussolini is alleged to have ordered and sent into exile on the barren islands off the coast of Sicily. The Bureau, which made these charges in a dispassionate report, alleges that over 1,000 antiFascists are in political exile on these Islands, imprisoned in company with common criminals, insufficiently nourished. . . .
Leading U. S. dailies recorded the belief of their correspondents in the genuineness of the Zurich report, described the isles of exile collectively as "The Italian Siberia."
