HITLER TALKS

ROME, May 4 Q.N.S.).-For an
hour and a half, the absolute,
autocratic rulers of Germany and
Italy discussed the immediate fate
of Europe in privacy today and
emerged apparently well satisfied
with the progress Of their delib.
erations.
Beneath a bust Of Julius Caesar
in II Duce's workshop in the
Palazzo Venezia, Reichsfuehrer
Adolf Hitler and Premier Benito
Mussolini held the first Of their
Ieart-to-heart conversations, de.
signed to strengthen the Rome
Berlin axis and possibly evolve a
military alliance aimed at Soviet
Russia.
HITS RED MENACE
With completion of a round Of
picturesque ceremonies in streets
packed with cheering thousands
who stood patiently in a drizzIing
rain, the two dictators launched
their momentous discussions and
the Fuehrer lost no time in beat
ing his favorite drurn-the menace
Of communism.
MusSolini, according to all in
dicationS, considers a military al
lance less urgent than Hitler
does. He devoted his oratorical
abilities to furthering the idea Of
a European fivepower pact Of ap-
peasement but apparently admit
ted the possibility Of a military
agreement within the framework
OF an anti-Bolshevik front.
FRONT AGAINST RUSSIA
The Fuehrer, on the other hand,
wants to know exactly where he
and Mussolini stand on the sub
ject Of communism. If he has his
way and a military alliance is pro
claimed, it will probably be based
on the assertion that a Steel-and-
iron front is needed against Boil
Shevist encroachment on Western
Europe.
With this in mind, it was under

ing for their lives.
IN FULL RETREAT
Shattered Japanese divisions be.
yond Pinsien are in full retreat,
but are staging furious rear-guard
actions.
Generalissimo Chiang's big ma
tional push will involve widespread
fighting in Shantung, Honan,
Shansi, Suiyuan and Anhwei prov
inces, and probably on still other
fronts.
It was notable that Chinese re-
ports have been cautious in Ie-
framing from claiming great VIC
tories, but it was officially stated
the Shantung offensive had sue
ceeded in forcing back the Jap
anese left, or eastern wing.
GAIN Is MILES
Advances were also made against
the japanese center and right,
sometimes as much as IS miles.
The surprising success of three
Chinese columns fighting toward
Hangchow are also believed to
constitute a grave threat, since It
keeps the Japanese from sending
requirements from the Shanghai
zone northward.
Japanese silence regarding Shan
tung is significant. The Nippon
csc report only that all fronts have
remained stable, and make no
mention of Chinese attacks.

The only indication superficial.
ly of foul play was a rip in the
flesh'colored stocking on the
woman's right leg.
Black-haired. of medium height
and build, the woman was about
30. She was dressed in a blue
blouse and a lowered skirt. On
her left wrist was a gold watch.
The hands were stopped 1875.
A thorough canvass of the
neighborhod and study of reports
OF missing persons failed to yield
a clue to the woman's identity.
Laundry marks ON her under.
clothing were being checked. She
wore athletic shorts and a mark
on this apparel was expected 10

Homicide-squad detectives and
morgue officials were confident
the Woman's body had not been in
the reservoir. used as an emer.

An earlier theory the woman's
body may have been carried
through a large conduit from the
Dalecarlia Reservoir was dis.
carded when reservoir employees
pointed out a heavy wire netting

FENCE AROUND RESERVOIR
Police said it seemed out of the
question that the woman could
have become i'll and fallen into
the reservoir, which is located at
