...strange that in this period of European turmoil so many voices should be raised in behalf of Czechoslovakia and against Chamberlain. That a skilfully-run democracy alone in the center of Europe should collapse because of the bluff and power of a Fascist state and the acquiescence of two allied democracies is an event unprecedented. Discouraging are reports from the outraged Czechs when they heard how their former protectors and allies had backed down, those of Hitler's apparent willingness to throw the world into a war.

S. debt accord. Swank Countess Volpi is a Jewess and so is the old mother of Fascist Minister of Education Giuseppe Bottai. Indeed, so many Jews of long standing in Italy hold places in or close to the Regime and seem to be such loyal Fascists, that intimates of Il Duce have figured from the first that his anti-Semitism was chiefly a bluffing gesture to impress...
