RIO DE JANEIRO, October 11 (#).— | Government spokesmen declared today that there would be no compromise with the revolutionists who are operat- ing in the states of ‘Rio Grande Do Sul, Minas Geraes, Parahyba and other lo- calities. The government is prepared for a campaign of several months if neces- sary, is strengthening the army with the addition of reservists and volunteer battalions. Additional strength also is being given the navy with the conversion of commer- clal vessels into warcraft.

PARIS, France, October 11.—The key to the immediate future of Europe, perhaps of the world, appears now to lie with Germany. The utmost uncertainty, both in in- ternal and external politics as well as in business and finance, once more pre- vails in that country. Momentous de- cisions must be taken. If Germany decides for Adolf Hitler and Fascism and joins Italy, Hungry, Austria and Bulgaria in a Fascist bloc, allied also in mysterious ways new demands for Tevision of the peace treaties, under threat of war, are wide- ly considered to be a cortainty. If, on the other hand, Germany de- cides once more that the best course is_in understanding and co-operation to Soviet Russia, | HOP FRON TRESED |Completes Second Atlantic | Crossing Ater Overnight | Stop in Islands.
