Berne, May 5.
Some nervousness prevails in Berlin over the situation in South-East Europe.
Reports received in the German capital announce the arrival of British engineers in Ankara and the presence of a number of British warships off the coast of Greece.
Berlin has also been informed that Great Britain is sounding out Bulgaria to get her permission to allow the passage of Allied troops through her territory, and that British nationals in Hungary have been ordered to leave that country. It is still asserted in Berlin that the Nazi leaders are viewing developments in the situation calmly and are determined not to lose the initiative in future operations Havas, Moscow Press Turns Anti-British Moscow, May 6, The British Fleet has been compelled to abandon the naval base of Scapa Flow and shift to the Mediterranean, the Trade Union organ, "Trud," said today in a bitterly anti-British editorial which marked the first Soviet comment on the Allied retreat from Norway.
