LONDON, Oct. 14 (Ur) Great
Britain and France tonight d's
cussed a proposal to extend the
Nyon "antl-plracy" patrol In an
effort to prevent Italian military
forces from occupying the Spanish
Balearic island of Minorca.
Premier Benito Mussolini, who
at first refused to Join the hunt
for "pirate" submarines alleged
to be from his navy, will be asked
to participate In a Joint naval oc
cupation of the fortified loyalist
island, it was stated. ' - -Troops
Massed'"
It was disclosed tonight that
Mussolini has not yet actually
turned over any of his warships to
the "anti-piracy" patrol, the full
responsibility for which still rests
with the British and French fleets.
France, alleging that Italy has
massed nearly 20,000 troops and
200 airplanes on neighboring Ma
jorca island which la held by the
Spanish insurgents, is alarmed by
what she regarda aa a serious
menace to French mobilization
plans.
Hits Defense
A foreign power In seizing the
Baleartcs. only 200 miles from
Italian Sardinia, could seriously
affect France's mobilization sys
tem and military defenses. A hos
tile occupation of the Islands
would prevent France from bring

Mediterranean from French North
Africa In event of a continental
war.
