War Moves Today

Today’s meeting between Hitler and Mussolini, is the fifth in the last 10 months. The series shows
the height and
the gradual decline of the Axis of-

itarianism.

il
Italian ambitions were at their highest points/ of anticipation.
On June 18 there was another meeting,
France's request for an armistice. vinced the war had been half won and it would require only the operation of Germany’s long prepared air offensive to overwhelm Great Britain and open the Channel coast to invasion. The meeting occurred when the fortunes of Great Britain were at their lowest and the plans of the Axis appeared in German and Italian eyes to be irresistible. But, thereafter, the uncertainties of war=fare began to shake the supreme confidence of the Axis.
Air Blitzkrieg Failed
The next meeting of the dictators took place on Oct. 4, again at Brenner Pass. At that time, Germany had attempted to beat the British to their knees by the air blitzkrieg but had failed. The expected invasion of the British Isles still was in abeyance with no prospect of its start, The triple alliance, inveigling Japan into:the "Axis net, had been signed one week before, designed as a threat against the United States, and Russia as well. The totalitarian rulers, disquieted especially by American aid to Britain, had been forced to appeal to the Orient for potential help. The original design for a quick, overwhelming ' victory had failed. The war seemed likely to be prolonged indefinitely. The Fuehrer initiated a new drive immediately after the second Brenner Pass meeting with II Duce, trying to get Spain and France into the same circle with Japan. Failed to Convince Franco Traveling into France, Hitler met Gen. Franco on the Spanish border
and also - conferred with Marshal Petain at Montoire. The purpose

At that moment, Mussolini decided the {ime had come to ¢emonstrate Italy’s military greatness by invading Greece and giving the initiative once more to the Axis. The Fuehrer, returning home from his diplomatic failures in France and Spain, was informed of II Duce’s impending imperialistic gesture. He hurried to Florence and there the two dictators met on Oct. 28, the day the Italo-Greek war began. His

Anxiety Creeps In
It was a [short meeting and reports circulated that Hitler was not favorable to the new Italian adventure. Whether he said so af the
reonference has not become kiodwn,
but subsequent events would have justified any objections, however strong they might have been. Now has tome the fifth gathering between the two, with conditions approaching disaster for Italy in Greece and North Africa, and Germany becoming increasingly eritical of American aid to Britain which at first had been scorned as too late. Eerlin’s official announcement of the meeting speaks of the spirit of (cordial friendship’ and “close comi'adeship of battle,” which prevailed. But, more than anything elise, the prevailing spirit must have been one of anxiety, The two dictators. cannot have (helped thinking of the great charige in their fortune: that has taken place since their previous mee}ings.
WASHINGTON, Jal. 20—Wendell Willkie urged in an interview today that there be a revival of tol erance; among all Americans, considering questions of national ‘policy. “Regardless of the ‘form of the
1loan-lease bill as it is finally passed
by Congress,” he sai¢, “a united America not only must, but will support it. Foreign nitions will do well to remember this “Meanwhile the right of every citizen to voice his opposition or his support must not be challenged cr abridged. Orderly debite and oper: -
FLAG “INSULT | ANGERS BERLIN
Sailors Tear Down Swastika in Frisco, Touch off U. 5.-German Eruption.
By UNITED FRESS A German spokesrian in Berlin hinted today at further political ard diplomatic developments growing out of the Nazi flag incident Saturday in San Fraacisco during which two daredevil sailors tore down and mutilated. the. Germ:zn Consulate’s emblem frame a crowd cheered. The two sailors folce a Superior Court judge today oh a charge of committing malicious mischief. The most they can get is six months in the county jail. The incident “made the worst possible impression,” the German spokesman said. “Its regarded as a moral incident and not otherwise. I don’t want to rule out further
political and diplomatic developments in connection with it.” i
U. S. Expresses Regret
The State Departriient in Washington expressed regtet to the German Embassy yesterday. The spokesman was asked if the State Department's eXpression closed the incident, replied: “I don’t know how the Governmeni wili react lo the State Departmeiit’s regrets because I am not cogrizant of them officially and I don’t believe the Government is officially cognizaat of them.” The - spokesman said that Germany was “presente; with the fact of a scandalous incident—the violation of the holiest! symbol of the nation by a howling, agitated crowd in the presence of police authorities and in violation of the laws of hospitality which are respected even in the jungle.” {
Papers Denounce Act
He concluded: “Tle incident is a moral act which has produced only a moral reaction. I don’t want [to rule out the possibility of continued diplomatic and political developments from it. I believe the United States people can bé identified with this incident as little as with many other happenings.” Newspapers denotiiiced the in: ole dent as “an impudent insult to the German flag.” Editorially, they said it was the direct rasult of hatred against Germany stirred up by the United States Government. In San Francisco; two American Legion officials late last night obtained release of the sailors—Harold Sturtevant, 22, and E. G. Lackey, 20 —from City Prison in $50 bail each. Allan L. Graham, Judge Advocate of the 363d Infantry Post, and William KE. Barden, corimander of the Fred Bunch Post ancl presiding commissioner of Supericr Court, put up the bail and turned [the sailors aver to Navy officers. “The act of these men constituted a public service to. the people of California in that the display of such a flag is contriry to the form, force and effect of its statutes,” the

The Presidential campaign’s bitterness was abselt late yesterday when Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Willkie conferred for 31 minutes at the

German economic experts, headed by the famed Dr. Karl Clodius, were due in Rome today for the start of important “Axis economic consultations, It was announced that Roberto Farinacci, radical Fascist editor of the Regime Fascista and former Fascist Party secretary, will join the armed forces in ‘Albania. In the Mediterranean, German and Italian air forces made new attacks on Malta. The Rome communique reported new hits on the damaged British aircraft carrier .Illustrious and said that six British planes and five Axis planes had been shot down in the latest combat. The British reported that 15 Axis planes had been brought down over Valletta yesterday with the. loss of one British craft and that 10 had been brought down Saturday.

White House. But angry words flew in a radio debate a few hours later between friends and foes of the British air measure. Senator C. Wayland Brooks (R. Ill) asserted that the Administration bill was “a double time march into fighting, shooting participation in another European war.” Former Senator Ernest W. Gibson (R. Vt.) replied that dictatorship and war charges had been put forth “as a cover for those who really are opposed to aiding England at all, but. haven’t the courage to say so.” Mr. Willkie, confident that the British aid measure will pass because he believes it is backed by 90 per cent of Americans, proposed these three modifications: 1. A time limit on the powers— perhaps two years—to insure return to the people and Congress of the extraordinary authority to granted to the President. 2. A Congressional check of the measure, section by section, to eliminate any authority granted which is not necessary to accomplish the objectives of speeding defenses and rendering additional aid to Great Britain. 3. Congress to retain control of the “purse strings.”
Oppose Using U. S, Convoys
He said he opposed American convoys of supplies to Great.Britain because such a move might make armed conflict between the United States and the Axis powers inevitable. Mr. Roosevelt, in his shirt sleeves, was working on his third inaugural address in the Executive : Offices when he received word from Secretary of State Cordell Hull, with whom Mr, Willkie had talked for one hour and 40 minutes, that the two men would come to the White House, The President penned his longhand note to Churchill, put on his coat and vest and prepared to receive his political foe for the first time in approximately four years. On instructions from Mr, Roosevelt, Mr. Hull previously had given Mr. Willkie “all information” available to this Government on the European situation, and the 1940 contenders found themselves in general accord on foreign policy. Mr. Willkie received from Mr. Roosevelt and ‘Mr. Hull assurances that they would urge British Government officials to give him all! possible information. American | Federation of Labor President Wil-

Milk Issue Back
Milk control, that old bugaboo, is coming back to haunt the legislators again. The Milk Control Act, originally passed in 1935, was extended at the last session only after the House once had rejected it and then voted to reconsider. It runs out this year. The dairy industry can’t get together. The producers and. the distributors still are bickering— it’s reported they can’t even agree among themselves. The Farm Bureau, which helped in rescuing the act two years ago, 1s keeping hands off temporarily. “After considering the interests of all members, the Farm Bureau officials deem it inad.isable to sponsor the re-enactment of the present law or any other milk control law until such time as the organized dairy industry within its own ranks has agreed on a program,” President Hassil BE. Schenck said today. It looks like the lawmakers may. have to fight it out themselves.
