not In the east but in the west"
DREM1ER MUSSOL1NI is highly
1 skeptical of the success of efforts to
persuade Germany to enter into gen
eral peace plans for Europe. In his
newspaper, Popolo d'Italia, appeared
an editorial, probably written by IL
duce himself, warning his fellow
countrymen that no miraculous results
may be expected from the conference
Of foreign ministers in Stresa. It as
serted that the western European pow
ers must stabilize their line of COM
mon action against several e~ventuali-
ties which can be %foreseen, and they
must take definite responsibility"
1t then charged that the French and
British are impeding Mussolini's wish
to take action against Hitler because
Of their p~reoccupation about their own
internal policy.
Premier Flandin and Foreign Min
lister Laval of France were reported to
have devised a vast, new, flexible plan

embroglio. though she remains friend

Captain Eden's visit to Warsaw was
as disappointing as was that Of Sir
John Simon to Berlin. The Polish
government is determined to sign no
pact that would commit the nation
to fight for Russia against Germany or
for Germany against Russia and
France, nor will it permit either Ger
man or Russian troops to be trans.
ported across Poland. The Polish
statesmen say they will sign a series
Of bilateral pacts, and will 60 as far
