BERLIN, May 3.-Chancellor Hit
Ter today sought to form neutral
bloc of at least six nations extend
Ing across Northern Europe.
He offered identical non-aggres-
sion pacts to Denmark, Norway,
Sweden and Finland, made similar
approaches to Latvia and Estonia
and there were strong reasons to
believe that proposals Of like ma
ture had been submitted to num-
ber of other European countries.
Lithuania was not included in the
Reichsfuehrer's projected northern
combination because her relations
to Germany are regulated by sep
arate treaty which contains non
aggression pledges.
The government agreed to pro-
posals of the Swedish and Finnish
governments for fortification OF the
southern group Of the Aaland
Islands, but attached condition OF
neutrality by Sweden and Finland
In the event of possible warlike en-
tanglements" involving the Baltic
Sea area" The Aaland Islands DOM
mate the entrance to Bothnia Gulf,
northern extension of the Baltic.
Aim to Isolate Poland.
One object of this diplomatic ac-
tivity is to isolate Poland. Hitler
already feels assured that Hungary
has cast her lot with Germany, even
to the extent of forsaking his
toric friendship with Poland, as a
consequence of the Berlin visit OF
the Hungarian premier and foreign
minister last week.
Another objective of the present
maneuver is to prevent further
"encirclement," as the Germans call
the British French system OF al
Iances.
A third object is said to be to
show that the Nazi government is
animated only by peaceful inten-
tions.
Hopes were high in German
quarters, meanwhile, that Poland
would have to come to terms ac-
ceptable to Germany.
The press started at noon to bring
reports from England and France
indicating that the British and
French publics were criticizing the
Polish press for exaggerated de-
mands for territory now German.
These hopes were further nur-
tured by belief that Hungary will
stick to Germany through thick
and thin.
Position of Hungary.
From man in a position to know
what Hitler and the Hungarian
Premier and foreign minister
Counts Teleky and Csaky-discussed,
the writer ascertains that the Hun
garian position is as follows:
Hungary and Poland have been
traditional friends.
Sentimental scenes on the Polish
Carpathian front last March, when
Hungarian troops were battling their
way across Carpatho- Ukraine to
establish a common frontier be-
tween Poland and Hungary, were
genuine.
But sentiment and tradition can
not stand in the way of the hard
facts of politics. The fact is that the
Poles have rejected an offer from
Hitler which the Hungarian govern
ment considers to have been
magnanimous.
Feels Sure of Reich's Amity.
Hungary feels secure in her friend
ship with Germany. She does not
know what mistakes" Poland may
make next. Hence, if choice must

NEW YORK, May 3.-John l..
Lewis United Mine Workers dele
cation resumed contract negotia-
tions toeay with soft coal operators
after morning devoted to exam
lining with union counsel the OPERA
tors compromise proposal for ending
the monthlong Appalachian shut
down.
Mr.. Lewis had called the U. NJ
w. Policy Committee to meet at
noon, but subsequently postponed
the meeting indefinitely. Mr.. Lewis
then conferred with his attorneys
as to the legality of the operators
offer to grant the union sole COL
lective bargaining rights and to in
stall as well a checkoff system to
collect union dues from union and
non-union miners alike.
There was no indicataion as to
what advice Mr.. Lewis had been
given on this point.
The operators offer to make the
check-off apply to all miners was
represented as designed to give to
the U. M. w. the protection from
rival unions which Lewis had insist
ed should be conferred through an
outright union, or closed, shop.
It was put forward shortly after
James Walter Carter, spokesman
for a group of powerful Southern
operators and an insistent opponent
of the closed shop, had withdrawn
from the conference.
Dues under the check-off average
81 a month, but non-union men
would be exempted from special as
sessments and the $40 initiation fee.
