Information recently received from despatches and cablegrams
indicates a deterioration in Anglo-Italian relations which is
causing grave concern to the Commonwealth Government. We feel that
implementation of Anglo-Italian Agreement [1] is of paramount
importance in the present international situation, and we would
like you to urge the United Kingdom Government that everything
should be done to bring it into effect at earliest possible moment
especially as it appears to us that slow progress in negotiations
over Sudeten question may lead at any moment to a crisis.
