This doesn't mean that these nations

1t seems advisable to work economi-
cally with Hitler. Poland, for exam

the influence OF France in Eastern
Europe. 1t was the late Marshal Pill

called the turn in 1888.
I understand that he then advised
France to wage preventive war
against Germany, as he figured it
would have to be fought eventually.
France turned down the idea, and

Go where you will and approach

blunt story:
The vast influence which was ex-

friendship, has been transferred to
Hitler's knapsack like the proverbial
marshal's baton. and he has marched
OH with it to establish economic and
political domination over Central Eu-

immigration officials said "at the

have been set up If his political af-
nliations had been known. They in
dicated no action would be taken now.
since Roca plans to return to Cuba
in few days.
Strachey's deportation, first sched-
uled for Friday. was postponed yester-
day when Federal Judge Edward A.
Conser signed a writ Of habeas corpus,
requiring Strachey's appearance in
court Tuesday. The order was OBJ
tanned by Strachey's attorney, Arthur
Garfield Hays.
StrAchey's visa was Cancelled while
he was en- route here from England.
Upon arrival he said he believed the
action was based upon what he said
was misinformation that he was q
