Frankly amorous waxed Das Schwarze Korps, newspaper of Heinrich Himmler's Elite Guard. The paper invited the U. S. to join the "new strong powers," presumably sit by while Germany licks Europe, and afterward easily and gently seize Canada, Bermuda, the Bahamas, other Imperial leftovers. With Teuton historicity, Das Schwarze Korps recalled such German friends of the U.S. as Baron Frederick William Augustus Henry Ferdinand yon Steuben, who assisted in the Revolution as a topnotch troop-trainer (but who, the paper neglected to mention, had been persuaded to help the U.

Reykjavik meanwhile suddenly sprouted an Icelandic Nazi Party of native stooges with German paymasters.

Each morning last week, in his monstrous office, Il Duce's heart was not cheered by the reports on the country's state of mind given him by Chief of Italian Police Arturo Bocchini. Italy's Himmler-an efficient, honest, courageous, unpublicized bustler who hangs a sign over his desk which says: "Please make it snappy"-daily reported the findings of his intricate wiretapping, eavesdropping machine, and the sum of the findings was not to Il Duce's taste: Italians want peace...
