ATTACK ON INDIA
JAPANESE BID SOON AXIS LINK-UP PLANNED SIR B. STEVENS’ VIEW (10.30 a.m.) SYDNEY, July 2. Sir Bertram Stevens, Australian representative on the Eastern Supply Council, has returned here from India and from a visit to America. Sir Bertram Stevens said there was little doubt that a Japanese attack on India would come soon. Should Japan conquer India, she would control more than a billion Asiatics with whose labour she would set out to conquer the world. v “In my view Germany and Japan intend, if -possible, to link up with one another this year. The junction may be through Russia, India or the Middle East.”
