PEACE OFFENSIVE
ITALIAN PRESS SUPPORT [by CABLE —I‘IIESS ASSN.—COI’YBIOHT.] LONDON, October 15. A message from New York says that the Rome correspondent of the “New York Times” states that the Italian Press attempts to convince Mr Chamberlain that he should not reject Herr Hitler’s olive branch, and warns him that rejection will mean a war without quarter, which may end possibly in defeat. _ “Resto del Carlino,” in Bologna, even states that if the German submarine campaign continues at the present rate the entire British Fleet will be destroyed by 1940. No mention is made of the 17 submarines the British and French Navies are reported to have sunk, nor whether Germany is able to replace them. Conservative circles maintain thqt the Allies have not explained their real desires, and express the opinion that the demand to Germany to evacuate Poland means that the British and French wish to solve in advance the very problems which should be the object of the conference Herr Hitler proposed.
