Berlin, Mar. 20.
"Germany has nothing more to say on the question of peace after the rejection of Herr Hitler's offer of October 6, 1939, an offer made only once," declares an inspired statement denying rumours of a peace plan.
's slogan, it is added, is "war until victory is won."
Reports of an eleven-point peace plan put forward by Herr Hitler are described by German political circles here as "foolish propaganda man-œuvres" attributed to "fear of the future on the part of the pluto-crocies,"
A spokesman of the Wilhelmstrasse told neutral correspondents that people abroad still did not seem to understand that the German Government had taken two decisions:
1.: To continue the war until complete victory had been achieved.
2. After victory, to secure Germany's vital interests once and for all, and to end the eternal menace of the plutocratic Democracies.
The Wilhelmstrasse is said to be openly discussing the desirability of a better understanding between Russia and Italy, and it is understood that a visit by Herr Joachim von Ribbentrop, German Foreign Minister, to Moscow is still possible—Reuter.
