Greenwich, Conn., Mar. 16

Nazi Germany's next move will be toward the west instead of the east and neither Germany nor Japan have any intention of attacking Soviet Russia, the "Greenwich Time" reported in a copyright article from Europe today. which has scored a number of journalistic "beats" on European news events in recent months, said the Totalitarian Powers are aiming their campaign solely against the Democratic states and hope to obtain raw materials and munitions from the Soviet Union for the probable war between the Totalitarian and Democratic states.

"The present redistribution' of interests in the Far East," the paper reported, "concerns largely the wealth of England, France and the United States and the possibility of securing raw materials and armaments from Russia in the coming war.

"The new Totalitarian programme. after the redis: ribu'ion of wealth in the Far East, calls for Japan to start pressure against the United States, Britain and France by threatening Indo-China, the first step being Japan's occupation of Hainan Island."

The paper said Germany will threaten British communications off the coast of Africa while Italy works inside the Mediterranean. Later Portugal will be forced to permit the establishment of German and Italian submarine and air bases along her west coast, the report said.

The Ludendorff Plan of 1927 will be revised to attack France from the south, coincident with terrorization of the population of France and Britain by devastating air raids, the Paper predicted. The German Army will not risk a frontal attack on France's, powerful Maginot Line the paper predicted.
