IMPETUS TO ROMEBERLIN AXIS
HUNGARY JOINS ANTICOMINTERN PACT WITHDRAWAL FROM LEAGUE PENDING CONFERENCE WITH GERMANY BERLIN, Jan. 13. It is officially stated that Hungary has joined the anti-Comintern Pact. The Hungarian Foreign Minister, Count Czaky, who is going to Berlin on February 15 for discussions with the German Foreign Minister, Herr Joachim von Ribbentrop, announced earlier that the Government Party at a meeting had decided that Hungary would join the* Anti-Comintern Pact if invited, which would involve her withdrawal from the League. The Daily Telegraph and Morning Post’s Berlin correspondent, commenting on Hungary's adherence to the pact, says that since there was at present no prospect of Poland joining further progress must be made either through Ruthenia and Rumania or Lithuania and Latvia. The Czech Foreign Minister, Dr. F. K. Chvalkovsky, and the Lithuanian Foreign Minister, M. Urbsys, are expected to go to Berlin at the end of January. Therefore by the beginning of February the lines of Germany's policy in East Europe should be more clearly shaped.
