Italian trust administration and S.Y.L. reconciled by 1956

Evidence

By this time, little trace remained of the earlier antagonism between the Italian Administration and the League; a good working basis of agreement had now been reached between the two sides, which was strengthened with the appointment in 1955 of the highly respected liberal Dr Enrico Anzilotti as Administrator. Henceforth, in so far as it was in a position to do so, the Italian Administration confined its participation in Somali politics to seeking to encourage those elements within the S.Y.L. which it considered most ‘moderate’ and favourable to a continuation of the Italian connexion. — I.M.
