Britain Moves to Stop Sub Attacks (Continued From. Page 1) submarine "pirates" molesting British ships. Both steps were interpreted In well-informed quarters - as- evi dence that the British foreign of fice intends to force a showdown. The British are aroused by the sinking of the British tanker Woodford and an effort to tor pedo' the destroyer Havock, both by unidentified - submarines - off the; Spanish-coast. - Authoritative sources- said the situation in, western EuroPe aa a whole might be discussed at Gen eva, taking in Italian . Premier Mussolini's determination to "ex terminate- bolsherism." Assertions by authoritative Italian sources that Rome will not attend the parleys, after prev ious indications that Italy would be eager to be there, brought no official British comment. But sources close to authority expressed belief that the guns of British diplomacy have ammuni tion enough to try to m a k e H Dnce change his- mind and attend in order to refute popular sus picion that Italian submarines are to blame. j 5 Pacific Highway Job South Done - . . .
