STRONG FORCES WORKING FOR PEACE
DANGER OF HASTY DECISION BY HERR HITLER MELBOURNE, 19th August. Sir Henry Gullett, Federal Minister of External Affairs, stated to-day that the radio announcement from Bratislava practically meant that the status of Slovakia had become little better than that of Bohemia and Moravia, and h very little military significance. He added that in spite of the gravity of the international situation strong factors and forces were still working in the interests of peace. The danger of an early outbreak of war “lies in the very limited time which remains to Herr Hitler during the European late summer and autumn. If Herr Hitler is to strike this year he will strike now at any time.”
