'S& enlisted. 1t was ar
rremier ranged that Chancel-
mussolini lor Hitler should go
to Venice and that Premier Musso-
lini should fly to that city to confer
with his fellow dictator, whom he had
never met. Later Louis Barthou,
French foreign minister, is expected
to go to Rome for a talk with Mus

between their countries may be ironed
out.
Mussolini and Hitler were to discuss
European policies generally, and, spe-
cifically, the German claims to full
armament and the Austrian question,
involving Nazi propaganda in the lat
ter country.
This Anglo-French compromise was
a diplomatic setback for Russia, but
the Soviet republic countered with the
announcement that it had been recog-
nized by Czechoslovakia and Rumania.
Recognition by Jugoslavia was expect

announcement was taken to mean that
the Russians intend to go ahead with
their policy of encircling Germany.
The recognition was effected by an
exchange of letters between Litvinov
and DR.. Edward Benes, foreign min
lister of Czechoslovakia, and Nicholas

~ Winston Churchill, former British
chancellor Of the exchequer, obtained
n infaracfin0 fnf
mer Kaiser Wilhelm. The seventy
five year-old ex-emperor gave his ap-
proval to the Nazi regime and hinted
that Hitler's work may be crowned"
by the restoration of the Hohenzollern
monarchy. He did not say whether he
himself sought reinstatement, declar-
ing: "The German people have turned

putting new life and soul into the
German nation" the former Kaiser
was quoted as declaring. eff ever
they felt it right that his endeavors
should be crowned by return to a
constitutional monarchy, am sure
that my family would not fail in their
duty"

pressed contempt for "the talking
circus at Geneva" and said the League
of Nations "does nothing but bring in
ternational cooperation into ridicule."
