...were tackled next. Germany's ambition is to see a solid Fascist wedge driven between the two, to dominate central Europe as she did before the War-with this difference. Before the War, Germany was the central figure of Mittel-Europa, scheming for a pan-Germany from the Baltic to the Persian Gulf. Then Italy was a wavering German satellite. Now she is the virtual Boss of central Europe and pan-Germany must wait upon Italy's permission even to penetrate the Danube basin economically. To sell their new solidarity to Britain and France, Mussolini and von Neurath...
...from resplendent London after the Coronation, an airplane was to take off late this week and, soaring eastward over the North Sea off the low coast of Europe, skirt that continent up to the jigsaw peninsula and archipelago which separate the North Sea from the Baltic. Over Germany's sandy Frisian Islands it would pass, over the fat fields of Schleswig-Holstein, over the belts (straits) of Denmark to tidebitten Zealand Island on whose eastern promontory, only three miles from Sweden across the Sound, lies clean, quiet Copenhagen.

...Nazi is a Balt, Dr. Alfred Rosenberg. This Balt edits the Völkischer Beobachter, personal newsorgan of Adolf Hitler. As a Balt he wants Der Führer to conquer with all speed his native Baltic lands as well as the Ukraine, this Nazi program being the famed "Rosenberg Plan." The Balt is a specialist not only in journalism and foreign affairs but also in religion. He regards Christianity with suspicion but feels that the Son-of-God concept has its points. Last week Dr. Rosenberg addressed himself to Germans who believe that Adolf Hitler...
