Greece and Turkey
Must Side With Axis
Or Else, Nazis Say
Reports Of Demands Upon
Athens CoteeoricoIIy
Denied in Berlin
BY LOUIS p. LOCHNER,


BERLIN, Oct. IAN authorized
Nazi commentator declared today
that II Greece and Turkey don't
see that their bread is buttered on
the side of the axis, it Is just too
bad for them.
He added, however. that Germany
does not need to get excited or to
exert pressure on these British
guaranteed nations.
In the Wilhelmstrasse, reports
that Germany and Italy had made
territorial and other demands upon
Greece were denied categorically.
why should we put any coun:
try under pressure?" the German
commentator countered to the in
quiries of foreign correspondents.
1T is already evident, with the in
exorability Of Z natural law, that
the new order in Europe will be
determined by Germany and Italy
Whoever sees that and arranges his
nations affairs accordingly can lead
q sovereign existence In peace and
quiet once this war is over"
Believe Greeks See Transformation
Then he warned:
But nobody who remains alooi
from throwing in his cause with the
axis need be surprised If he finds
afterwards, that he has missed the
boat"
The commentator expressed be-
lief that the Greeks-"A clever, wise
people"-realize what a transfer
nation Europe Is undergoing"
As for Turkey, on-belligerent
ally Of Britain. he said: There is no
indication Of any kind that Turkey
intends to play = role similar to
Polands."
Reports that the British wa,
secretary, Anthony Eden, might
proceed from Egypt to Istanbul drew
this:
I'VE can only smile at such an
! ignoramus as If we could be
influenced in any way by such a
maneuver!"
Larger Issues at Stake"
Wilhelmstrasse ofiicials themselves
professed to be surprised at world
interest in the Balkans and in
sisted events in Greece and 'Tur-

vations that chill the ardor of their
zeal and put stumbling blocks in
the path of their holy and chari-
table ambitions.
With eyes and hands of praise,
they look to you and with them both
the faithful and their flocks and
those others. too, who have yet to
hear the shepherds voice while
they wander and sit in the shadow
Of death knowing nothing of Him
who has redeemed them and who
has promised them eternal life and
peace. Pray that the master of the
vineyard send workers for these,
your brethren, too; for they also
have been called to be born again
in Christ. Prayer is sword that
pierces the heart of God and let's
fall his love and mercy; it is the
offering made by your lips, by your
hearts, loving interest in the mis-
sioners of Christ in those lands
that have strayed from the fold
and those pathetic sufferers who are
bearing the burden and torments
Of our calamitous age.
Men Far From Peace.
That offering of prayer, rising be-
fore the sacred tabernacles where the
Divine Shepherd of His redeemed
flocks lives encourages and associates
himself with His apostles in the
fields and bypaths of their wearying
toll. will not fail to be accompanied
by the gift of your hands. They will
offer it in this sad and distressing
hour to help the spouse of Christ
in the propagation of the faith.
They will help her to push on the
good work begun, to rebuild what
has been damaged or destroyed:
to reasure the faint-hearted and
discouraged to multiply the scant
resources, to increase and advance
the whole missionary movement on
toward the ultimate triumph of
that kingdom of God on earth
which is the subject of our daily
petition to the Heavenly Father in
that prayer taught us by Christ:
Thy kingdom come This is the
kingdom of peace between our souls
and God: it is the kingdom of peace
between brothers founded on their
mutual affection, peace between
the peoples and the nations of the
world based on the equitable ad-
justment of differences in a glad
union that comes with right order
At the present hour men are far
removed from this peace: the in
innate sense of common values both
in the natural and supernatural
order threatens to abdicate in many
hearts to opposing principles: so
much the more comforting and in
spring will be your eff1cacious fdel-
ity to the Catholic missionary spirit.
For after all the peace of the world
is also a missionary aim of the
church. On the tranquility Of order
among men depends her life, the
conquest and the salvation of souls,
the diffusion of the precious gift
of faith, the triumph over evil-all
leading to that goal of unchange-
able peace in eternity.
Lord Will Recompense You"
In these sublime and holy
thoughts will your purse and your
generosity find their support. The
money you give to help the poor
missions is a long way to the Lord
and the Lord will recompense you
for it proverbs 19:10. Christ, who
speaks and works in the champions
of IJic ooSpe1 will grant WI, RI Sbare
in their merit; He will consider it
given to Him what you give to them.

According to 'Hammerin' Hank
Montanez is honey of fighter
and when the two of them tie up
soon it should be a bell-ringer OF

Asked about his education, Arm
strong said he had finished high
school and, at the time, held as
pirations of being a doctor, but
had to abandon such fancy ideas
because he was the thirteenth
child of family of fifteen and
had to help support his 63-year-
old father, an aged mother, and
the many brothers and sisters. Hc
said his mother was all eX-slave
and that she said she distinctly

Henry Armstrong gave We

he is today. He said that when

fights and had no hope whatever
