German Newspaper Comments on Mus

soIini's Speech on Fascism.
BERLIN, october % CP.-Premier
Mussolini's address in Rome yesterday
concentrating the eighth anniversary
Of the Fascist march on the Tiber City,
in which he predicted eventual con-
quest of all Europe by Fascism, filled
considerable front page space In all
newspapers of Germany today.
Many papers recalled a previous re-
mark of the Duce that FaScism was an
unexportable Italian article, and prac-
tically all coupled the speech with
notable Fascist gains in the September
Reichstag elections.
The italian premier's statements,
which the press agree are definite and
uneouivocal, have not yet drawn COM
ment from any paper except Germania,
organ of the Catholic Center party,
which said:
1.-The presence of italian Blackshirts
at German National Socialist (Fascist)
meetings hitherto have been regarded
as a mere friendly gesture, and sug-
gestions of active support by Italian
Fascist headquarters always have been
denied from Rome.
I'VE have already pointed out that
italian hosannas over victory at the
Reichstag polls of the anti-Constitu-
tional party were tantamount to an
unfriendly action toward Germany.
We must now reaffirm that view.
I'VE are surprised that Mussolini,
the cool, calculating politician, dreams
of seeing all Europe dominated by the
lictor's bundle. 1t is a dream not to
be realized
