- 4 - 206 The British fleet can now use Greek bases and there is also the possibility of a collision of the entire British and Italian fleets. The British naval forces are now closer to the east coast. Italy's approach. In addition, the axis has made 1 million tons of Greek ship space a gift to England. Measures were taken to prevent Greek merchant ships from falling victim to the Axis powers. Today, 22 German aircraft were fired in air combats over England. 7 rit. machines were lost. Reports from New York say that German agents seem to have received the order to describe the Rólle, which could now be played by the USA, in the most tempting colors. This is understandable and shows that Hitler is aware of the important role played by increasing US aid to England. These agents claim that Hitler would be very pleased if he did not have to destroy the British Empire. If Roosevelt took advantage of this situation to mediate, he would find his sympathy in Berlin. However, if the US continued its aid to England, Hitler would immediately begin the invasion of England, which is tantamount to the destruction of the British. But no one falls for this clumsy maneuver of the German agents anymore, it is only a sign of Hitler's weakness. USA will be stronger than Germany in its war effort and will break with Hitler' s power. Lecture Publicist Fraser: The German Propganda ih USA is a drama in four acts: l. Act: Goebbels wants to convince the USA that it is not a real war, therefore he does not have to interest the USA. But when Hitler invades a number of neutral states, America knows that Hitler is also a danger for America. Act 2: Germany declares it is too late for America to intervene, since France has already fallen. But the invasion of England fails, and the air terror has no effect. America is sending more and more help to England. Act 3: The axis is fabricated to bring its plan of reorganization under roof and subject. USA is to be put before a fait accompli. The pact with Japan is to frighten Uså. Act 4: Hitler hopes a change from the outcome of the election in the USA. But no matter whether Roosevelt or Wilkie, everyone will help England. This last week before the Wahi is also the last chance for Germany. Yesterday the American war minister drew the first lot with which 5 million men among 1 7 million registered persons are to be used for one year's training. Roosevelt gave a speech to the conscripts, in which he explained that the recent events had proved that only the Strake could live in freedom and peace. The new soldiers will be the heirs of a proud tradition, which should ensure the fundamental rights of all people in our country. - 5-
