new drive was the subject OF
speculation in legations in Sofia
and Belgrade and among politicians
of Bulgaria and Jugoslavia.
In Belgrade, it was rumored that
Bulgaria-poorly equipped and de-
pendent almost solely on Germany
for arms and munitions - had
agreed to line up with the axis
powers.
A Nazi leader recently in Sofia
allegedly spread the report that
Germany planned to offer Bulgaria
part of Macedonia in return for
Bulgarian assistance or benevolent
neutrality in event of axis action
against Jugoslavia.
This, Bulgarians regarded as
baseleSs propaganda. Until the Al

3. Announcement by Greece that
her independence and integrity
had been absolutely guaranteed
Although the announcement was
viewed at first as confirming a
British pledge to Greece such as
the London Evening Standard said
had been given, authoritative
sources said later that the Greek
statement referred to an Italian
pledge to respect Greek and Ju-
goSlav independence.
4 Indications that Chamberlain
expected TO announce publicly on
Thursday that Britain would fight
to preserve the independence of
both Turkey and Greece, which
are vital to maintenance of Brit

probably of Rumania.
5. A decision by the cabinet,
meeting this morning, to avoid
denunciation of the British Italian
1888 friendship treaty, which was
violated by italian conquest OF Al
bania, for the time being at least
in an effort to prevent further
strain on relations with Rome.
This decision also was under
stood to be due to uncertainty re-
garding the future of Nationalist
Spain.
1t was said that, despite Brit
aims earlier confidence that Span
ish Gen. Francisco Franco would
swerve toward London to get fin
ancial aid official circles were
understood to be increasingly un-
certain of SPANS future role.
The cabinet decided, after today's
uesday meeting but to gather again
on Thursday morning to approve
the statement Chamberlain will
make in the House OF Commons,
presumably regarding Greece and
possibly Turkey and Rumania.
Political quarters reported that
the cabinet considered sending a
British fleet to Greek waters and
landing British troops on the Greek
island of Corfu, near the Albanian
coast, as a direct warning to Pre-
mier Benito Mussolini that Great
Britain was prepared to defend
Greek independence and territorial
integrity by force of arms.
Alarming reports of the poSSibili-
ty of an italian move against
