Nozi Circles Minimize
BuIqor Premier's Trip

BERLIN, Jan. 2 (P)-The fact
that Bulgarian Premier Bogdan
Philoff is on his way to Vienna for
his health" excited speculation in
political circles today, but German
authorities declined to attach any
political importance to the trip.
Even the circumstance that the
German Minister to Bulgaria Baron
Herbert Won Richthoffen. was ac-
companying NJ Philoff met with no
comment beyond the statement that
the Bulgarian is going to Vienna for
health reasons.
One reason for the widespread in
terest in Philoff's movements is the
fact that authorized German sources
consistently have declined to COM
ment on secret address which the
Bulgarian Premier is reported to
have delivered behind closed doors
before Christmas.
One opinion frequently expressed
in non- official circles is that the
German government wants to know
Just what Philoff said on that Occa-
sion and what, in consequence, Bull

to be.
Another unconfrmed rumor is
that Franz Won Papen, German Am
bassador to Turkey. has been In

be. the fact remains that Bulgaria S
position in the scheme of things IN
Southeastern Europe has command
ed attention in foreign diplomatic
quarters in Berlin ever since the
Bulgarians failed to join the three

gary and Rumania did.

|Vandenberg Renews
Plea 10 Explore
Peace Prospects
U. S. Action Before TotuI
Destruction Sets In.
Urged by Senator
BY the Associat ted Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Senator Vandenberg, Republican,
of Michigan, asked today that pos
sibility of negotiated peace" be
explored in order to make plain
the alternatives involved in the
program of greater aid to England
He told reporters that with
new program of greater, overall
aid to England officially pending"
he thought it IAN opportune time to
ask whether a negotiated peace is
impossible"
Such a move, Senator Vandenberg
said, would force consideration from
belligerentS in the present war
before total destruction sets in,"
and further, "the American people
would feel differently about the
new, larger aid to England pro-
gram if they got final proof that
this present conflict must go to
military conclusion"
Il have said that our participa-
tion in a negotiated peace might
prove preferable to our unprepared
participation in the war, but I in
sist that our participation in the
war is unnecessary" the Senator
said. He gave this as his creed:
Il believe it is to the advantage
of America to have intrepid Britain
win. believe we must, in the
first or in the final analysis, defend
America by defending America
which emphatically includes Can
ada. I do not believe we should
diSsipate our own essential defenses
in order to aid England I do not
believe we should repeal either the
Neutrality or the Johnson Acts. 1
do not believe IN American conveys.
Il do not believe in acts that
would inevitably take us into this
war. I think we should stay out of
the War-not only for our own Sakes
but also for the sake of our COM
mitmentS under the Monroe Doc
trine"
Holt Predicts New A. f. F.
In a speech on the floor, retiring
Senator Holt, Democrat. of West
Virginia attributed Hypocrisy" to
President Roosevelt in foreign
affairs and predicted that the next
Congress would send American BOYS
to Europe in another needless,
SenSeleSS war"
L am not afraid to stand here
and say the President of the United
States wants war" Senator Holt told
! his colleagues. The Presidents
policy has been toward war since the
war began"
When Senator Lee. Democrat. of
Oklahoma interrupted with the pro-
test that the President had said the
administration did not intend to
send an expeditionary force abroad,
the West Virginian replied heatedly
that he would prefer to determine
what the President of the United
States is going to do by his actions
rather than by his words"

Italy Halls New Year
Message Of Roosevelt
By the Associated Press.


ROME, Jan. 2-Italian political
circles said today they interpreted
President Roosevelt's wish for "a
righteous peace for Italy in 1941
as meaning peace with justice" for
which, they said, Italy is fighting.
Hence. these circles said. the mes
sage which the President sent King
Victor Emanuel Tuesday in answer
to greeting from the monarch has
created favorable impression"
here.
The President expressed his hope
that during the year to come the
Italian people may be enabled to
enjoy the blessing of a righteous
peace"
Italian newspapers failed to re-
port the exchange of messages. but
FasciSts said the omission was with
out significance because italian
papers never publish such kilograms
which it is customary to exchange
in accordance with etiquette"
"A righteous peace" foreign cor
respondents were told, would mean
from the Italian viewpoint the
freedom of our empire, freedom of
our sea (the Mediterranean and
Europes freedom from meddling by
other powers
