were invaded down to the fall OF France re-
tains it's original striking power. 1t has been
subjected to too many heavy assaults recently
for that.
Furthermore, an invasion of Greece might
draw Turkey into the conflict on the side OF
Britain. And, always in the background is
Russia. Stain is quite as shifty, as tricky as
Hitler, and infinitely more cunning thai MUS
solini. What the Russians, under Stain, would
do in any new situation, is as much on the
minds of the Axis leaders, we suspect, as on
ChurchilPs.
If might turn out that Hitler and Mussolini
did. in fact, decide to crack down on Greece
when they met in Bremen Pass. But it is not
al all certain that by doing so they could
bring Britain to its knees. Once a tide turns,
as the tide of war evidently has, it is beyond
the power of any mortal conspirators to re-
verse it.
The Wilmington morning star., 1940-10-06
Neville Chamberlain

We in the world today are too close to Neville
Chamberlain's laundering to form an accurate
opinion of it, its influence on current events
and its consequences. Only in the perspective
of time will that be possible. But we cannot
fail to recognize that had Britain under his
premiership taken a bold stand against Hitler
soon enough much of the world probably would
not today be engaged in history's worst war.
This is not based on Munich. 1t goes back
of that. 1t is not even necessary to bark back
to the German re-entry of the Rhineland, al
though it may be true that the war was con-
ceived then. Had Chamberlain backed France
when Germany and Italy sent troops into
Spain to support General Franco and imposed
the sanctions the Paris government then urged,
it is probable that the Berlin-Rome Axis would
either have ceased to revolve or its revolutions
would have been materially slowed down. Mr..
Chamberlain had allowed the theory of ap-
peasement to dominate his thinking by that
time. however, and could see no course save
to allow the Nazis and the Fascists to pour
troops and equipment and supplies into Spain
without protest and so encouraged their lead
ers to draft a program of world conquest.
Munich merely pointed Chamberlain's earlier
mistake in Spain.
This attitude of the former British prime
minister is the more reprehensible because
Anthony Eden laid the true state of affairs
before the premier and cabinet long before
Munich and warned that august body that
appeasement was the surest way to encourage
Hitler. Eden had seen the tremendous prep
%arations for war in Germany and foresaw as
clearly as if the picture were already painted
in blood, what would happen if Hitler were
not brought up short. So far from needing
Eden's warning, Chamberlain continued in his
effort to placate the fuehrer, failed to turn
England's attention to adequate war prepar-
atoms and declared war when Poland was
invaded without even knowing in actual figures
how unprepared Great Britain was for war.
To be sure, he then undertook the lob of
making Britain ready with feverish haste
even with suddenly inflamed hate for Hitler
and all he stood for, but even then was un.
equal to the task, as his half-hearted and un-
dermanned exploit in Norway proved.
History, we suspect, will assign chief blame
for the fact that Hitler caught Europe Mapping
to Neville Chamberlain.

this old mans face is written the
story of a life spent in c%easeless

painting tells only half the story.
the toll worn hands are vital and

1t May Be Greece

With Hitler's war on Britain virtually stale
mated, Italy unable to strike a crushing blow
in Africa, a hard winter ahead and supplies
running low, it is natural that the Axis chiefs
should meet to survey their situation and de-
ternlne where to strike next with a possibility
of improving their lot and placing a handicap
upon their enemy. The Bremen Pass confer
ence of Hitler and Mussolini undoubtedly was
devoted to this purpose and SO far as the cor
respondents have been able to pierce the veil
OF secrecy surrounding that meeting it seems
that Greece was chosen as the victim most
likely to yield them an advantage.
1t is the accepted theory that the fall Of
Greece would enable the Fascists, with Nazi
aid, to establish a thanking base against the
British in Egypt and SO promote the possibility
of a British defeat in Africa as well as create
a diversion which might weaken the defense
of Britain itself. Britain is committed to help
Greece if that country is attacked and could
not afford, not only from the military but
. from the morale viewpoint, to 90 back on her
word. A new battlefront, of course. would
compl1cate Brltaln's task, by spreading her
army and navy more thinly over a larger
territory.
At the same time, this thinning process
would work both ways. Not only Britain would
be affected, but Germany and Italy as well.
That is worth noting in forming any opinion
on the possibility of the war spreading to
Greece. Hltler's forces are already pretty
well scattered, as are Mussolini's. And Greece
is not without an army, though untried in
modern battle.
The outcome of a Battle of Greece is nm
practicable, certainly, but the odds are more
equal than when Hitler sent his fresh. fully
supplied and supplemented troops into Norway
and the Low Countries. There is no reason to
assume that the blitzkrieg which swept all be-

Gillette Transferred

The order instructing Lieut.. Col. George
w. Gillette to report at Fort Belvoir. Va, on
October IS is a shock not only in Wilmington,
where he has endeared himself to a wide
circle and labored faithfully and efficiently
for waterway, drainage and health better
ment, but throughout the entire engineers
district where his efforts have secured many
benefits for the people.
While here Colonel Gillette has used his in
fluence and power, both as army engineer and
citizen, for the development of the waterway
conservation of sea foods, for swamp drain
age, for mosquito eradication, and in every
way proved a constructive force in the area.
Wilmington has not so many men of equal
capacity for competent work, for leadership
and driving power that it can accept his with
drawaf with equinimity.
It is understandable that the army should
need him in larger fields of endeavor. His
transfer probably will bring promotion, for
which Wilmington will be grateful-no man
deserves it more-but we will not soon forget
the services he has rendered in this district.
nor, hopefully, allow the enterprises he
launched to be neglected. The Wilmington
area will be the better for his coming and
loser in his going. Wherever duty calls him
he will carry the best wishes of the entire
engineer district.
