British TO Reject
Hoover Plan for
Food to Belgium

LONDON, Feb. IT, (UP)-Author-
itative quarters indicated TODAY that
Great Britain would reject former
President Herbert Hoover's plan to
send food to Belgium.
The Hoover plan found no favor
IN authoritative quarters which said
it contained nothing that might
lnduce Britain to change her pres
ent policy of refusal to relax her
blockade against anything except
medical supplies.
Hoover suggested in an address at
Chicago last night that an expert
ment in supervised feeding be made
IN Belgium under control of a nell
tral body
Iaklng the plan point by point,
authoritative quarters said thev were
certain Hoover was thinking of
Switzerland as the neutral control
and pointed out that Switzerland
almost entirely surrounded by Axis
territory. was subject to German
pressure.
They claimed also that Belgium
hardly was suitable for experiment
since it was being used as one of the
main bases for assault on Britain
and Belgian workers were being
pressed into German service.

Greeks PRESSING
Attacks Against
Mountain Forts

ATHENS, Feb. II. CUP)-Greek
troops pressed attacks against Ital-
ian mountain positions in Albania
today despite counter-attacks which
have resulted in heavy Fascist losses,
according to a government spokes-
man.
The spokesman said there had
been more than 1000 italian cas-
ualties and the capture of 200
prisoners since Saturday. Two
Blackshirt battalions totaling 1900
men were reduced to 200 men when
counter-attacks against advancing
Greek troops failed, the spokesman
said. The Italians were said to be
covering their retreat with barbed
wire entanglements and persistent
counter-attacks.
A war ministry communique re-
ported successful local actions in
which Greek troops repulsed enemy
attacks and captured $50 Fascist
soldiers and much material.
The communique said that Greek
bombers had been active and re-
ported that one Italian bomber was
doWned.
The ministry of public security said
one person was wounded in an
italian raid on Prebeza.

Ex-Spanish King
Issues Manifesto
Renouncing Claim,

ROME, Feb. II CUP) - Former
King Alfonso XIII, seriously il
after a second heart attack, made
public today a manifesto renounc-
ing his claims to the Spanish
throne in favor of his hon, Juan
PPPrincc of ASturiaS.
Alfonso made the manifesto pub
lie on the return from Spain of his
court chamberlain, the Count Gle
Les Andes, who had given copies
of it to Spanish royalists and to
Generaiissimo Francisco Franco
the Spanish chief Of state.
Asserting that he was address
ing the Spanish people for the
last time, Alfonso said that he felt
the time opportune, in view of the
post-civil war political reorganiza-
ton in Spain, to clear the way for
restoration of the monarchy.
Alfonso said that he believed he
might be considered an obstacle to
restoration and that his duty is
to sacrifice all personal considera-
lions and serve the great cause OF
Spain for which thousands of Span
iards have SO generously offered
their blood
A physicians bulletin said today
that Alfonso had spent a good
night and there were signs that the
gravity of some of his symptoms
was lessening.

struck into Poland for the frs,

irrational flight of 1902 miles tc

the air ministry revealed today.
The longest previous raid was tt
1000 miles round trip to bcmt

The air ministry said British
planes dropped leaflets at Kadowice

night.
Although the air ministry re-
ported the raids matter of factly

in communique to them, they were
considered an indication of Britain g

tances at important enemy OBJ

The ministry's communique did
not say what type of plane was
used in the leaflet raids. The Brit
ish have developed two new long
range bombers. one which is the
Wellington, and at least two new
types have been obtained from the
United States.
There was no indication whether
the leaflet raids were preliminary
to bombing attacks on Poland. The
British frequently have followed up
leaflet raids with bombs.

Hitler Working to
End Greek War
BY J. w. T. MASON
United Press War Expert

Hitler's hesitations and confer
ences concerning a military often
sive in the Balkans undoubtedly are
due 20 his deep desire to bring about
peace between Greece and Italy
without having to risk uncertain
complications of extending the war
in southeastern Europe. If the
fuehrer does strike against Greece,
it can be assumed he has been fore
ed to do so in an effort to counter
act peace propaganda in Italy
There can be no actual military
gain to Germany by sending an
army through Bulgaria to attack
Greece. Only Italy's predicament
and the urgent necessity for keep
ing Italy in the war could Justify
Hitler in spreading the war so far
afield.
If the Germans were to reach
Salonika a nd the northeastern
Greek coast, they could not dis
rupt British power in the eastern
Mediterranean. The Great British
naval base at Alexandria and the
Suez canal are about 800 miles away
from northern Greece, making a
round trip journey of 1.50O miles
necessary for German bombers.
Such raids could have only nui-
sance value. Malta is only rs miles
from Sicily. 1t has been bombed
repeatedly by Italian and German
planes but without interrupting its
use as a British naval and air base.
Possession of northeastern Greece
might be of moderate assistance TO
the Germans if they intended to
attack the Dardanelles and under
take the hazardous march of 1000
miles southwark through Turkey
toward Suez. But, with the Ital-
ianS in North Africa defeated so
decisively, it hardly can be ex-
pected that the Fuehrer vii, risk
a direct offensive against Suez by
himself.
furthermore, Russia must neces-
sarlly regard any expansion of
German military power in south
eastern Europe with the gravest
suspicion. However reluctant Stain
may be to challenge the Germans
immediately, Russo o-German rela-
'lohS m ust automatically become

With Bulgaria added to Rumania

would be in the fuehrer's control
POSSESSION of northeastern Greece

an important defense factor.
He continued to say that strength

was then that he asked support OF
the people for the importation OF

He added that the military COM

Excited press dispatches reported
that American ship captains in the
Pacific were now carrying sealed
instructions on what to do if war
broke out, that Britain had con-
centrated 10000 men on the Thai
land frontier and that Britain was
working out joint campaign plans
with China against Japan.
