eee Fanfani Resignation Refused | Amid Italian Political Storm

ROME (AP)—Amintore ¥an- fani, criticized for his role in a purported North Viet Nam peace feeler, offered his. resig- nation as foreign minister Tues- day in the midst of a new Ital- jan political storm. Premier Aldo Moro rejected it.

Fanfani acted to dissociate himself from anti-American re- marks made by his friend Gior- gio la Pira at a Dec 20 party given by the foreign minister's wife: _

La Pira had visited Hanoi. the North Vietnamese capital, and. \reported President. Ho Chi Minh told him he would go anywhere to meet anyone to bring an end to the war. After Fanfani passed this on to U.S. President John- eon Hanoi denied any- peace overtures were made. But la Pira ‘stuck to his version.
