budget Of any major symphony in

the risk that the allies will inter-
vene to the detriment of Germany's
strategic and economic position: If
the Reich itself intervenes, it in
evitably causes certain amount of
disruption which also interferes with
German economic interests and 1t
further acquires a new front. a
new flank. and new and prolonged
lines Of communication to main
tain. none of which the Nazis want.
2 The dilemma is painful one and
there is no way of telling which
choice Adolf Hitler will make.
What Germany most wants in
Southeastern Europe is peace and
quiet. Only under these conditions
can the raw materials be produced
and shipped to the Reich which the
German war machine must have in
the long run.
Allies Have Initiative.
But so long as Germany itself is
not in control of the situation of
the southeast, it is always possible
for the allies to create a good deal
Of confusion, and perhaps even
chaos, at relatively little cost to
themselves. A small-scale allied in
tervention in Greece, for example,
might be expected to bring down
the precarious structure of peace
in that part of the world in ruins.
Italy would very likely feel that 1t
must protect its position In the
Adriatic and the Aegean, Russia
might move against Rumania. There
would be conflicts among the Bal
kan powers themselves, and the
Reich would have to take the
initiative to protect its raw-mate-
rial sources. The resulting confu-
sion would be bound to interfere
with production and transport, per.
haps seriously and perhaps for some
time.
For these reasons 1t would appear
to be clearly in the interest Of the
Reich to be prepared for operations
IN the Balkans.
May Move First.
Yet the only way Germany can
block allied action of this sort is
to move into the southeast first
and this, in turn, would certainly
bring about precisely the confusion
and chaos which 1t Is the Reich {
vital interest to avoid at all cost
Such . German initiative, further
more, would divert still more men
and materials from the western
front, where the real decision OF
the war must be reached, and would
oblige the Reich to maintain long
lines Of communications requiring
considerable transport, supplies ano
materials to maintain.
Precisely this same problem faced
Hitler In Scandinavia. There the
Chancellor took the bull by the
horns and intervened. The long.
term strategic results remain to
be seen, no matter how clear the
tactical results have been. It Is still
arguable whether Germany has not
lost more than 1t has gained by
going into Norway.
Hitler himself, however, seems tc
be convinced so far that he ha,
won important advantages at rela.
lively little cost by his Norwegian
campaign.
