Italian demands A plan for softening of conditions imposed on Italy are likely to be presented to the 12 natfon North Atlantic treaty conference opening Saturday in Ottawa There are many arguments in its favor Japan has been forgiven Pearl Harbor the "day of and many other war acts which stirred the free world It has been restored to the family Of nations The foreign office and diplomatic corps of western Germany were restored at the Big Three conference the past week at Washington and other concessions were made in order to gain co operation in building the European army being organized by Gen Eisenhower to' hold off the Communist hordes While German participation in this defense force still offers many complications great forward steps have been taken in bargaining which will make western Ger many an ally of the West All this invites new Italian demands They may well argue that if we can "forgive and forget" in the cases of Japan and Germany then surely the same can be done for Italy with far less risk Italy occupies an unquestioned strategic position in the Mediter ranean Her leaders are likely to remind those at Ottawa that Italy boasts a remarkable record in dealing with the Communists and that she has grasped every opportunity offered to contribute to the defense against communism Italy thus has many reasons to petition that her sovereignty be restored so that she may control her own economy and rebuild her armed forces concessions granted Japan She has much to sup port her desire to be allocated sufficient defense production orders so that she may give new life to her industries and reduce unemploy meninternational events in recent days as they affect Japan and Germany have been of great significance The program of strength ening the free world may well be
