YANKS MAKE HISTORY IN BASEBALL Hitler SOVIET CHANCELLOR, IN SUNDAY SPEECH, IS AGGRESSIVE Declares lhat—Nazi Nation Will Continue Defen- sive Preparations IS WATCHING THREE BRITISH STATESMEN Observers Interpret Views to Mean Invasions Contemplated BERLIN, Oct. 10.—Informed Nazi circles interpret Hitler's speech, made yesterday at Saarsbrucken, as a warning not only to Germany but to the world, that the future still carries war dangers. The Chancellor, who has stated that the Czechoslovakia conquest was won easily from Great Britain and France, declared in his speech yesterday, that Germany is ready “for a policy of understanding with our neighbors but Germany is pre- paring herself defensively, more than ever. Eying Britishers Chancellor indicated that Ger- many will continue, especially on a defensive program, and incidentally will keep “an eagle eye” on three British statesmen, former Foreign | Secretary Anthony Eden, former First Lord of the Admiralty Alfred | Duff Cooper, who resigned last week because of the British Foreign poli- cy as regards Czechoslovakia, and Winston Churchill, First Lord of the Admiralty during the World War. The Chancellor described the three named as “leftovers from Ver- sailles.” Security First The Nazi Chancellor said the ex- perience of Germany during the past eight months shows “we must strengthen our determination to be careful and leave nothing undone for our security and rights. There are those abroad who do not want peace constructed in their states. Such men can be supplanted at any time by others.” The Chancellor said he was de- where he is serving life for the 1916 baseball for the past 20 years, cided Germany will continue to build up fortifications with increas- ed intensity.

Charles A. Li bergh for a statement they accused him of making, @ eading lies MOSCOW, herel nces Soviet air trength in order to give British Prime Minister Chamberlain argu- ments to surrender Czechoslovakia. The statement apparently arose out of unverified reports in two Lon- don newspapers that Col. Lindbergh had been critical of the Soviet Air force. Col. Lindbergh himself, it is un- derstood here, has made no com- ment on the reports. The Moscow statement is signed by eleven Soviet airmen, including Civil Aviator Chief Vasily Molokoff. Ten of the group are des ficially “heroes of Union.” The statement, published in the Communist party newspaper Prav- da, called Lindbergh a “stupid liar, as the Soviet gnated of- | lackey, and flatterer of the hu‘nm IL accused Lindbergh of (\llm" guests of Lady Astor in London that fleet was powerful l'l‘(\u"h to defeat the combined air strength of France, England, the Soviet Union and Czechoslovakia. Further, the Moscow article said, Lindbe: ’s purpose in making the statement was to give Chamberlain basis for arguments for handing over parts of Czechoslovakia to Hit- ler. Lindbergh, characteri in the Pravda story, is as a “has been” omong aviators, who recently took advantage of Soviet hospitality toward Americans by barging into Moscow without an invitation. .
