Seeks Air Bases Nearer England.
Hitler still cherishes dreams Of
destroying England from the air. it
is believed, and for this reason he
is looking for nearer air bases from
which to dispatch his aerial fleet.
Raids. in past weeks on England
showed German bombers to be easy
prey for the fast British machines,
especially the new pursuit planes.
Thus, for Arge-scnle raids the Ger
man bombers need fast German
pursuit planes to accompany them,
which would be made possible by air
bases in Holland.
Dutch soil, however. is not hard
enough for heavy planes and even
the ground at the chief airdromes,
like Shiphol, would give way under
the weight Of heavy bombers. But
the Island Of Texel, OF North Hol-
land, has q good bay for hydro
planes and this may be used a.
bases for pursuit ships.
Moreover, Hitler allegedly wants
the mouth Of the Scheldt and Meuse
Rivers, from which his new pocket
submarines could make raids on the
Belgian coast.
Hitler's generals and informed au-
thorities in Germany have opposed
this plan. They believe an invasion

Chicago Daily News Foreisn Correspondent.
THE HAGUE, Nov. 11.-While
high-placed Dutch today denied
that Germany had served an ulti-
matum on this little neutral and its
neighbor, Belgium, two vital ext
gencies led observers here to believe
that, II not an ultimatum as such,
Fuehrer Adolf Hitler has at least
served severe demands which II re-
fused would invite an invasion by
Nazi forces.
Hitler must have . victory to allay
passions at home. Dissatisfaction
within Germany over the war is
now taking dangerous forms and
German leaders realize this. Thus
they calculate that a foreign polit-
ical success may help and that
probably the easiest and cheapest
