EUROPE WATCHES DUEL
OF DUCE AND HITLER
Winning of First Trick in
Austrian Conquest Jeopardizes
Ultimate Victory.

merely to have Italy destroy the
French foundations within Austria
the SocialiSts-but to destroy the
little entente as well. For his part
he cleverly won Poland away from
France. thus breaking down one of
the pillars of French influence in
Central Europe: even before Mus
solini, through Dollfuss, upset another
in Austria.
Once the little entente is split and
dissolved, of course, it becomes bat
tie between Germany and Italy for
the succession to French influence in
Belgrade, Bucharest and Prague.
Mussolini believes that, with France
gone, he can set up a bloc made up
Of Austria, Hungary and Rumania to
which Yugoslavia will have to adhere
and thus insure the arrest of German
advance down the Danube to Vienna,
Budapest and Bucharest.
Italy Would Be Master.
italy will then have replaced France
as the master of Central Europe. At
Geneva Italy will have the support
and influence which has hitherto be-
longed to France by reason of her
control of the little entente. Thus,
at least, the Duce's ambition to make
Italy in fact great power in Europe
will be achieved. And obviously Mus
solini calculates that France, fearful
Of Germany and isolated by reason
of the loss of her allies, will have to
follow italian leadership.
Germany's calculation on the other
hand Is no less unmistakable. Hitler
has already disposed of Poland by
non-aggression pact; knowing he can
not fight a first-class war for 10
years, he has agreed for that length
of time rot to attack Poland. He is
prepared to offer Czechoslovakia the
same sort of bargain, which, If France
remains in her present quiescent state,
will leave Prague with no choice but
to accept. And with France and her
Polish and Czech allies thus disposed
of. Hitler will be ready to do battle
with Mussolini for control Of Austria.
There the cards are already stacked
against Mussolini. Faced by the hos
tility Of the Nazis and the resentment
Of the Socialists, he has only the
Oollfuss government and small num-
ber of Austrian Fascists to back him.
At a given moment the Dollfuss gov
eminent can be overthrown as a
minority government and a Nazi re-
gime can be set up which will be
both representative and nominally in
dependent, although actually con-
trolled from Berlin.

Shanghai Has Color
Despite Its Poverty

SHANGHAI, China-Notwithstan
ing the drabneSS of Chinese Winter
clothes in Shanghai and the appar-
ent poverty of the masses, Shanghai
is anything but drab city.
The Chinese love color. They love
brilliant decorations for their shops
and shop windows. Consequently, re-
gardless of how chill Is the wind
blowing upon the cotton-clad Chinese,
there is usually gayety in the charac-
ter of their streets.
Walking or riding through the
winding thoroughfares Of the inter-
national settlement side of the me-
tropolis, one finds shop after shop for
blocks. Some of these marts Of Chi
nese trade are dirty, some clean. But
most have colors bright and varied.
A newcomer cannot feel dull In their

ations must obviously enter into the
struggle.
So far there has been a common
purpose in the strategy of both the
Duce and the Fuehrer-to eliminate
France as the dominant influence in
Central Europe. French influence
has rested upon the little entente
and Poland. Italy, for her part, was
assured of the support of the present
Hungarian government, while Ger
many had no direct ally, although
under the surface she counted or
the sympathy of German elements in
the populations of all Central Euro
pean states.
In Austria this three -cornere6
struggle between Germany, Italy and
France was illustrated by the sup
port given to the three foreign ma
tions by the Nazis, the Fascists and
the Socialists. As long as the Social
lists controlled Vienna and were
backed Immediately by the neighbor-
ing Czechoslovakia, itself an ally o1
France, Italys role as the defender Of
Austrian independence was compli-
Gated. For Dollfuss, Italy's agent
depended upon the Socialists for his
existence, and the Socialists repre-
sented precisely those liberal elements
most disliked and despised by Musso-
lini. And these Viennese Socialists
were similarly antipathetic to the
Nazis Of Germany.
Hollow Victory.
Mussolini won the first trick in
Austria by compelling the Dollfuss
regime to crush the Socialists. Once
they were gone, France was without
a representative in Austria. But Hit
ler profited indirectly, because in
smashing the Socialists, Mussolini,
acting through Dollfuss, drove them
over to the Nazi cause. And the COM
bination of Nazis and Socialists as
sured an overwhelming majority In
Austria against Dollfuss and his 1tal-
ian support. Thus, while Dollfuss
momentarily dominated the field after
the recent massacres Of Socialists, he
actually found himself in q hopeless
minority and dependent for his very
existence upon Italian backing.

shown himself far more adroit than

FISH PACK FOR s. E. ALASKA| IS
 ALMOST 100000
Total of All Varieties to August II, l,836,232
 Cases, Reports Show

The Southeast Alaska salmon pack up to last Saturday night aggregated 1,836.232 cases of all varieties, according to figures made public today at local headquarters of the United States Bureau of Fisheries. This is well above the pack on the corresponding date last season, due principally to a heavy pack in the Ketchikan dis trict which is double that for the same date in 1883.
 For the week ending August 4, that area had very heavy run. This slackened last week but the pack last week was 40 per cent ahead of the pack for the cores bonding week last year.
 In the Wrangell section, the run dropped off in some sections and continued good in others. All streams were very low and the outstanding need was for a south easter and heavy wind as the fish were evidently standing off shore.
 Takes were appreciably heavier in the northern Chatham Strait district and the run apparently was Increasing in size. That dis trict will close down at 5 D. m. today.
 Southern Chatham will continue operations until August 1 |. The Eastern district, comprising Ste phenS Passage and Frederick Sound remained unchanged. Operations come to an end there next Thurs day night.
 The pack to August II, by dis tricts in the Panhandle follows:
