The war of headlines Is on again In the Medi terranean and the Par East. Btg Gun Mussolini Is fir ing blank cart ridges at Britain. The Japanese are going him one better In Tokio, leveling a diplo matic barrage over the heads of the entire world. But, If you will notice, their troops are mov ing In a direction opposite to their word s. Musso lini's are getting PA I I MALLON ready to grab the rest of Ethopta: the Japanese are moving to demoralize a growing resistance to their domination In China. The guiding spirits of American di plomacy are silent but unexcited. They have catalogued both steps def initely In their own minds as further "bulldozing diplomacy." Herr Hitler Is making similar bull dozing threat against Russia. His purpoea la precisely the same as that of the Italians and Japanese. He wants to frighten the world into si lence while he prepares the way for colonial expansion eastward. Al though you hear little about It In this country now, you will later. The reds have become so excited they can almost. hear the Naai legions goose stepping eastward to the strnlns ot the "Horst Wessel," which sounds as If It might be a horse whistle, but Isn't. Even diplomats have to smile when they think of the latest Hitler moves. He turned a honeymoon into a diplo Tnatlc"threat. The honeymoon was not his, but that of his first lieuten ant. General Ooeilng. The general was sent off to lead his bride In the same direction which may some day be taken by the great German air force which he built up. The honeymoon party Included two secretaries of aviation, and confiden tial officials from several minttries, as well as Prince Philip of Hesse, a brother-in-law of the king of Bulga ria. Incidentally, the bride also went along. The honeymoon party visited all the countries which Germany la trying to win over. It is not the first time that Mars has been disguised as Cupid. No authority here doubts that all these steps are more or less Impor tant Incidents leading up to war. Nlether la there any doubt that a major war will be avoided for the present. Japan will extend her emprie through China by degrees. The So viet will not fight; both Britain and the U. S. are too busy. Mussolini will crush Ethiopia and extend his imperial colonization there. Britain will not like It because It places him more threateningly on the trade route to India, but will not cause a war. Hitler will absorb and colonize the states to the east toward Russia. The reda will view with alarm, but keep their swords in their scabbards. . There continues to be much gosMp about Mr. Hoover being the power behind the "grass roots" convention: about the Hoover crowd getting back (Continued on Page 8lx SIDE GLANCES by TRIBUNE REPORTERS T.
