FASCIST BLOC
NEW AGREEMENT BERLIN, TOKIO AND ROME ANTI-RED MOVEMENT Hy Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright Times Cable LONDON, Nov. 17 The Shanghai correspondent of the Times says advices from Tokio refer to the adherence of Italy to the anti-Communist agreement between Japan and Germany and state that Italy under the agreement will recognise Manchukuo in return for Japan recognising Abyssinia. This would involve an Italian break with Geneva, hut Signor Mussolini is prepared to give the League of Nations the alternative of losing Italy or recognising realities regarding Manchukuo and Abyssinia. The agreement is a combination of a pronouncement against Communism and a trade agreement based upon the principle ol barter, which will provide for an exchange of raw materials from Manchukuo in return for German manufactures and soya beans in return for arms and munitions. it is believed that what the Japanese Army principally wants is an exchange of information whereby it can .share Germany's technical skill and new inventions.
