 Premier Philoff has hastened to Vienna and conference is expected there with German leaders.
 The pro-Nazi Minister of the In- terior is temporarily in control of the Government
 Diplomatic circles expressed the belief that the Premier, whose train rolled through Belgrade during the night is seeking to learn in Vienna just what Hitler plans to do with his NaM troops in the Balkans and what part Bulgaria will be asked to play.
 Observers said the stage seemed set for German drive through Bull garia toward Greece or the Dardan- elles if the Nazis desire to make such move.

 The Rome radio broadcast also noted the newly arrived German fliers and stated they have already been stationed at several Italian bases to take part in aerial attacks with the Italian planes.

Nippon Press Urges CIdri- fieation Over ReIa-
 lions with Soviets

TOKYO, Jan. 2.-Japan'S fish cries, treaty with Russia expired without renewal on December 31 and reliable foreign observers see therein evidence that Moscow is following a shrewd diplomatic policy in her rela- tions with Japan and Germany.
 The fact there was no announce ment of a renewal in relations with Japan in the fisheries pact before the end of 1940 caused surprise.
 If the delay continues beyond the New Year holidays, observers said this may indicate Berlin is unable to persuade Moscow to come to terms with Japan which has held fishing rights in the Russia Far Eastern territorial waters since her victory in the Russo-J Japanese War
 Since 1886, detailed regulations concerning the use of these rights has been embodied in single year agreements and difficulties have arisen each year end over the re- neWal.
 The 1940 pact called for negotia- ton for permanent" fisheries con- vention within years time, but this has not been done.
 The Japanese press has been urg- ing for weeks that relations with Russia be clarified.

Possibly seizing on the weakness of the Axis offensive forces across the English Channel as result of Hitler sending warplanes and crews to help out the losing campaigns of the Italians. against the British in the Mediterranean area, British Royal Afr Force bombers have car ried out very intensive overnight raids.
 The British- official report de- clares that the bombers slashed at the, German. port of Bremen, Nasi Invasion ports, U-boat bases and other targets and great damage has been done as the returning fliers re- port disastrous fires are seen and great debris heaped up, caused by explosive bombs"
 The British Press Association said the attack on Byemen is in partial retaliation of the Germans devastat- ing fire raid last Sunday night on the city of London. The associations report declares that RAF incendiary bombs paid the Germans back in their own coin.
 Berlin admits heavy damage and many fires as the result of RAF raids at night.
 Late this afternoon. the British Air Ministry in an official state ment, said the RAF bombers show cred fire bombs and high explosives on the big north German port of Bremen for three and one-half hours. The attack last night is described as highly successful
 Flushing, Ostend and Brest were also successfully attacked.
