GERMANY'S THREAT
NEW WEAPONS OF WARFARE BRITAIN AND RUSSIA WILL ASK FOR MERCY (Rec. 11 a.m.) LONDON, Mar. 7. " Germany is preparing for a terrible sharpening " of the methods of warfare, says the Swedish newspaper ' Svenska Dagbladet's' Berlin correspondent. It is being said in Germany that " new weapons will be used, until Britain and Russia ask for mercy." The correspondent asserts that before 'employing these weapons Germany will denounce all international contentions. He quotes a Berlin spokesman as saying: " England makes warfare against international rules. She will be given the corresponding answer." Dr. Goebbels, as gauleiter of Berlin, in a message to Berliners, said: " The last British terror raid placed the population under a heavy test. Obviously there was great damage, but it will be 'repaired as soon as possible. I have ordered generous compensation for all dependents of the dead or< injured. Our enemies believe they can weaken us with terror raids, and that Berlin is unable to stand up to raids in the same way as London. You Berliners have answered that."
