Turkey 10 Receive
Demands Of Axis,
Rome Paper Hints
Reports of Nozi-Foscist
Pressure on Greece
Held Premature
RH the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
ROME, Oct. 19-German and
Italian demands on Greece and Tur-
key to bring their governmental
policies in line with the axis were
indicated as imminent today by Re-
lazioni International, often authori-
tative Fascist weekly.
italian influence on the Balkans
and Mediterranean countries
is destined to have future develop
ments." the paper said. This in
f1uence, in relation to war necessi-
ties. is henceforth not to be re-
strained"
Cairo Reports Held Premature.
Diplomatic circles in Rome re-
garded as "at least premature" re-
ports from Cairo that the axis al
ready has made extensive demands
on Greece, and italian authorities
said they knew nothing of such re-
ported demands.
"The Italian people are making g
war of natural aspirations, the Re-
lazioni International asserted. "The
Italian people also are following q
policy Of natural precautions.
"It, therefore, is evident that
wherver obscure points still survive
in the Balkans. these points must
clarity themselves decisively and II
will be done with firmness."
The periodical said "any scruple
is unjustified and any delay i'm
moral in attainment of the su-
preme objective, the "subjection OF
England"
Russian Talks Forecast.
Negotiations between the axis
powers and Russia for an under
standing over future policies prob
ably" will be launched in the near
future, usually reliable circles said
If such negotiations take place
some foreign observers say, they
may envisage fixing Russia's sphere
of influence in the Near East in the
event of trouble between the axis
and Turkey.
Germany, in such an event, sup
posedly would seek Moscow's assur-
ance that Russia would not interfere
in the Dardanelles in exchange for
a free hand in Iran and Afghan
iStan.
An authoritative source said today
there was no information here to
confirm reports abroad that Foreign
Minister Count Ciano was planning
another trip to Berlin within the
next few days.
Italian authorities said also that
they knew nothing of reports of
four-power conference of Germany
Italy, Japan and Russia.

ALONG THE ROAD
By
JOHN RANDOLPH SrIDMAN

Referring to an editorial, written
one hundred years ago, appearing
in the Baltimore Sun, in regard to
a reform movement of that city, il
was noted that the fire companies
were leaders in the glorious re-
FORM, by uniting and "burying the
Ratchet" rather than fighting and
holding drunken brawls" like fire.
men of New York. According to
the history of the old fire COM
panies of Baltimore, it might be
said that they were often detected
in "burying the Ratchet" in the
heads of other firemen.
Senator Styles Bridges, New
Hampshire Republican, advocates
putting the unemployed back to
work, expanding the workers wages
by expanding business and reviv-
ing initiative. 1t is as simple as
all that. Why didn't some one
think of this before?
The Hatch Act, which prevents
Federal employees from entering
into any campaign for public office
is resulting in many telephone
calls in the Justice Department.
The Washington job holders are
wondering just how they stand in
regard to its workings. The ordi-
nary citizen hopes that the Hatch
Act will not interfere in any way
with the old fashioned setting hen

Food And The War

There has been bitter fighting in this war-but the
armies have been hardly involved in it yet. The
weapons used have been economic and diplomatic. And
now the enters its second haf-year, the ques
ton of food begins to overshadow all others.
Well known are the spartan measures taken in Nazi
Germany to her meager food suppies-typcal
German diet, judged by American standards, is at
bare subsistence level The Allies moved slower in
sticng food but they too have recently been forced
to take drastic steps. England which must import
die, has clamped down hard on the nations dining

ten week (about 40 cents) pork, beef mutton.
Whiskey production has been decreased two-thirds.
Across the channel in France, home of the gourmets,
still restrictions have gone into effect
restaurants only two-course meals, pastry
shops must close three days weekly etc. And spoken
for the allies have intmated this is but the start
Fear that the Allies may be shut off from essential
supplies has caused to forecast their probable
defeat-U. S. Ambassador to Britain Kennedy is

THE GRAND JURY

We listen to the sordid tales
Of husband and of wife,
Of petty sins that mark the trails
Along the road of life.
At times the truth will make its
way
From out nest of lies,
And honor strut it's little day
Before our wondering eyes.
Here, often falls the futile tears
Designed to make US pause;
A trick to raise within US, fears
That we have missed the laws.
We hear of british deeds of shame
By some who drink their fill,
Of human scum with furnished
name,
And those who shoot to kill.
They tell of Standings in the dark,
OF theft and trust mislaid,
Of bitterness that leaves it's mark
Upon the lives betrayed.
And SO for either good or ill,
We give each point its due.
We sum it up, return the bill
And pray that it be true.
