English Translation

1ge -5= Laval agreed, the following are: Iuft- und Flottenstautpuikte and the French fleet to the disposition of the axis for their operations against England. Permanent German economic influence was given to the powerful French dndustrien. To Jtalien a part of the French Riviera, part of Tunis and Algiers. To Spain a large part of Karokko. To Ja an franz.-Jndochina, Der restige Beaitz under common administration. That the axis is close to the Bilgarian Blait Curentul, the next European event will be an attack by Germany and Jtalia on Turkey, soft the last British bastion in Europe. Last night the windows of the great Italian travel office in the center of Belgrade were smashed. The speech of Laval, iie he was supposed to bring to the press yesterday, was atoned. Rondfunkensprache Jan M a s a r y kst Liebe Frounde in der Heimat! Again a small country begged the attack of the laschists. Greece was as neutral as possible. Nioht in his dream it occurred to a Greek that he might want to attack Germany or Jtalien. For this good reason, Greece was attacked. The modus operandi was the same as in the previous stables. Greece should sign a change that could be passed on at any time and under every condition by the international blackmailers, remember only how it happened with the other marches. Mussolini said again that he would not want a war with Greece, but if Greece did not allow Jtalien to do what he wanted, then he had to put in there until the country of a Homer had come to its senses. The whole thing is so similar, vie if you stop at the stress of the night and say to Yhnen: "Excuse me, but I don't know what time it is, I'm saving my watch at home, you're about to give me Jhre clock now. I've also left my money at home and therefore I'd like to have Jhere bread bag!" Joh is convinced that my comparison is correct. The whole thing is very simple: if you don't want to follow, you will be beaten to death, then you will inherit everything at once. And the widow will be charged the funeral expenses as a reparation! Aurea prima sata st sotas quze vindicae nullo ...... and Ceterum ecseo, Cartaginem ess delendan .... What would these two great nömer Virgil wd Çivero say if they knew that this second modern Nerò has decided to anger the beautiful Roman culture? What would Dante say today, how deeply would Garibaldi be ashamed, all these great and noble men, what would they say? Sié would have to see how Mussolini of the people forces body and spirit into the Jnferno of Germany. My blessed father was happy in Jtalien and: Greek and especially Capri helped him. Br met with Gorki there, but perhaps they were forced to imprison him today and a blood court from Hitler, Göring, Kussolini, Himmler and perhaps also from Henlein would condemn him, because he liked Jtalienm but had the democratic Jtalia. - So much about the war in Greece. -6 -
