NEW PEACE BID FROM GERMANY EXPECTED SOON
Press Stresses Duce's Plea As Hitler Returns From Polish Front.
BERLIN, Sept. 26 (U. P.) —Germany, in co-operation with Italy, | may make a “final” peace move this week, diplomatic quarters reported today.

Daily there are new orders showing these preparations—further cutting of the already severely reduced number of private automobiles and taxicabs: prohibition of the sale of bar chocolate of all kinds; mobiliza- | tion of more classes of the women's labor corps. Orders such as these appear inconspicuously in the newspapers each day, while reports are displaved prominently of British and French rationing measures and allegations of “defeatism” and “depression” in Great Britain.
People Appear Confident |
Millions of Germans seem to helieve that the weight of the Nazi war machine has only to be thrown against the West to bring another quick victory Even well-informed Germans talk of a ferocious “antiblockade” and aerial ‘‘counter-at-tack” by Germany which would end the war in a comparatively short time, People who a month age insisted with complete assurance that Britain In no circumstances would fight! “because she is too weak and anvhow she is just bluffing” now said. with an equal show of conviction, that Germany could defeat Britain and France and dictate peace terms! within 18 mon ths {

LONDON, Sept. 26 Survivors of the torpedoed British freighter Hazelside, 4646 tons, of Newcastle, told today how their master had made a gallant race for safety under the shell fire of a German submarine which attacked without warning and, having sent all of his men he could into the only remaining boat, jumped into the sea and drowned as his ship was sinking. Twenty-three of the crew were saved; 11, including the captain, Joseph Davies, and the chief and third engineers, were lost. Men brought ashore said that the submarine appeared on the surface and fired. Two men were killed.
