BALKAN UNREST.
EYES CN AXIS
HUNGARY’S STRATEGY
LONDON, Oct. 0The Daily Telegraph's Balkans correspondent says Hungarian and Rumanian relations show the Vienna Agreement was not a settlement at all. Big groups of Hungarians are left within Rumania, while Hungary has absorbed vast Rumanian populated areas. Moreover, Hungary has no intention of regarding the settlement as final.
It seems to ho dawning on the countries hitherto persuaded that an Axis victory was a foregone conclusion that, after all, there is a remote possibility of a British victory; also, the Axis is not likely to have things all its own way : when the time comes for peace-making. In a country like Hungary, therefore, there is a natural tendency to cash in as much as possible on the grounds that “If the Axis wins we keep, If the Axis is defeated or weakened, then the more W'e have the less we are likely to lose proportionately.’ Mussolini has begun a tour of inspection of the northern army.
