Paris, Oct, 17.
A scathing reply to Herr Hitler's letest propaganda effort, asserting that it "is in the interest of the Allies to end the war because Soviet expansion is creating an international Bolshevik danger," is made in a semi-official statement issued here.
These propaganda moves, the statement declares, have even gone so far as to suggest that only peace will give Herr Hitler time to turn his attention to this Soviet drive.
It adds that in Paris it is considered that this argument is intended solely to hide a most complex reality, and to fit in with the game which Herr Hitler has in mind for the immediate future. It is emphasized that it is Herr Hitler himself who broke the Anti-Comintern Pact, with grave consequences for Germany in Japan, Spain and even Italy. Therefore, the statement asserts, it is obvious how much it would be in Herr Hitler's interest to repair the damage done to his former system of friendships.—Reuter.
