A GERMAN'S COMMENT
NATION'S FIRST OBJECT
WEAKENING FRANCO-SOVIET
PACT
LONDON, September 12.
Commenting on the anti-Russian tirades of the .Nazi leaders at the Nuremberg gathering, a personage of high position in both old and new Germany admitted to "The Times" special correspondent that these would have meant war within twenty-four hours in the days before 1914. How far the campaign- would be allowed to go would depend to some extent on world reaction to yesterday's outburst, but it would not be surprising if Herr Hitler brought his crusade of anti-Bol-shevik fury to a crescendo' With some startling • announcement. _ Germany's .first object, he says, is to secure a weakening of the FrancoSoviet Pact. In any case, he hopes to win Britain's adherence to an antiBolshevist crusade under German leadership. Thus financial and economic support might be ensured for Germany where other arguments failed.
