U.S. NOTE IMPRESSES FINNS
Government Meeting
LONDON, February 9. The Finnish Government held a secret session last night to examine the threatened break in relations with the United States if Finland remains in. the war, says the Geneva newspaper ‘La Suisse,” quoting a report from German diplomatic circles. . The German-controlled Scandinavian Telegraph Bureau distributed a dispatch from Helsinki in which a Finnish newspaper is quoted as saying: “It is high time we ourselves investigated peace terms. We must have the courage to discuss peace problems openly.” Another Finnish newspaper is reported to have said that the Finnish Foreign Office has no knowledge of the reported statement by a Finnish Legation official in Washington (reported yesterday) that Finland will not capitulate. Observers in Stockholm regard this as an indication that the Finnish Government does not want to take responsibility for the statement.
