NO TRIPLE ALLIANCE.
HERR HITLER’S MEMOIR.
FORCE USED IF NECESSARY. LONDON, June 5. An alliance between Britain, Germany and Italy is regarded bv HenHitler as impossible, according to the noted French journalist, Madame Tabouis. She states that this view was expressed in a memoir drawn up by Herr Hitler after his Italian visit. The memoir is being circulated among the most important Nazi officials, the copies are numbered and their circulation is strictly controlled to ensure secrecy. The moves indicated Madame Tabouis adds, are: — (1) The final occupation of Spain by Italy and Germany. This presupposes that the agreement between Britain and Ttaly is collapsing, as it is dependent on Italv’s withdrawal from Spain.
(2) Protection of the Romc-Berlin “axis,” as against Russia, by taking over Bohemia, including Prague, and the creation of an alliance between the Baltic States, Poland, Rumania and Yugoslavia. (3) Preparation for an attack on France and f/rcing the unconditional return of the colonies and Alsace-Lor-raine, also Savoy and Tunisia. Tho memoir says every effort will be made to carry out the programme without war, but, if difficulties arise, there will be no hesitation to use force.
