Italy’s possession of Abyssinia changes the situation in the world. England, powerful ash she is, is fighting for her existence. The Arabs in Palestine are rising against their British protectors, and Islam will he a world power in a few decades.” Dr. Goebbels (Minister of Propaganda), speaking to Potsdam |Nazis. said that the League had been unable to terminate the Abyssinian war, which was decided with bombing squadrons. Germany, not desiring a similar settlement of a future conflict provoked with her. had provided her own bombing squadrons. The Frankfurter Zeitung appeals for co-operation between England. France and Germany, and welcomes Air R. A. Eden’s declaration that Britain wishes to work for peace with Germany, also Air Baldwin’s .announcement of his willingness to try out Herr Hitler’s wish for peace. EXTREAIISTS TO THE FORE. SIGNIFICANT CHANGES. (Times Cables.) LONDON. June 22. The Berlin correspondent of the Times spys that Herr Himmler’s appointment, as general of the German police coincides with a change in the police uniforms from blue, which reminds Nazis of the democratic system, to grey-green, similar to General Goering’s militarised constabulary. Facings will be brown, harmonising with Nazi uniforms. The changes show the rapid ascendancy of Nazi extremists.
