POWER ON THE WANE?
HITLER AND MUSSOLINI A JOURNALIST’S VIEWS AUCKLAND, Dec. 7. After discussions with well-inform-ed people on the Continent and in England, Mr. Frederick Howard, of Melbourne, author and journalist, is convinced that Mussolini’s dictatorship in Italy will end within a year, and that Hitler’s fall will occur shortly afterward. Mr. Howard, accompanied by Mrs. Howard, passed through Auckland on the Mariposa on his return to Australia after a nine months’ tour abroad. “Mussolini will not last a year,” said Mr. Howard. Unrest in Italy, he continued, was growing, and Mussolini was finding many financial difficulties in his path.
“Hitler, too, is meeting with many problems in Germany, and he will last only a little longer than Mussolini,” said Mr. Howard. “The Nazis have diminished greatly in numbers, and Hitler is now left with a comparatively small group of followers, with the assistance of whom he has been putting his policy into effect. The people, however, are still afraid of him.”
