MR. CHURCHILL THANKFUL
AMERICA FOLLOWING EVENTS IN EUROPE (Independent Cable Service.) Received Feb. 3, 1 a.m. LONDON, Feb. 1. Mr. Winston Churchill, speaking to his constituents in Essex, declared that he was disquieted by Herr Hitler’s encouragement of his fellow dictators and the extraordinary claims on France. “I wish I could be sure that the dismissal of Dr. Schacht does not mean a further screwing down of the safety valve,” he said. “I wish I could be sure that a steady flow of munitions supplies is not moving forward from the recently conquered and dominated German territories to Hungary and perhaps beyond, or that a similar stream is not moving southward into Italy; also that the German troops mobilised in September have all returned to their homes. We must be thankful that the United States is closely following events here and rearming on such an immense scale.”
