Newspaper Page TextMEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON. TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 3. 1940. PAGE FIVE Pay -Off Coming in Balkans In Opinion of A. P. Analyst Br DeWltt MaeKensie The hot-spot of the European war today apart from Hitler's Intensified bombing of England In an effort to make a quick kill before the bad weather over takes him is Rumania where the nazl chief bids fair to achieve a notable gain as the result of the axis "settlement" of Hunan-Rumanian territorial dispute. garian-Rumanlan territorial dis pute. Announcement that Germany intends to send troops of occu pation to safeguard Rumania's frontiers sheds a lot of light on the situation growing out of the axis award of about half Ru manian Transylvania to Hun gary. This means that Herr Hitler is establishing what nazidom calculates to be a protectorate over the strategically important domains of King Carol. Wedge To Black Sta With the military occupation of Rumania Hitler will have driven a great wedge clear through from Germany to the Black Sea. since Hungary must be considered as working along with the relch. This will at once increase Germany's politico-eco nomic domination of the Balk ans and tend to stymie Russia's efforts to extend her own in fluence over the peninsula. The tense situation in the Bal kans was further complicated by the threat of Rumanians in Transylvania to resist by force transfer of this territory to Hun gary. Already there have been considerable disorders, but the only result of this thus far has been a semi-official nazi threat to occupy all Rumania unless the agitation Is .stopped. Com plete occupation would, of course, serve Germany's pur pose even better than the ori ginal proposal of sending troops to protect the borders. Moscow's view of this Ger man operation naturally is of vast Importance, but the bolshe vists have been watching the move through their army binoc ulars without doing any talk ing. Whether the Soviet has giv en tacit acquiescence or not, it has made no move as yet to hin der Hitler's opportunist coup. It wouldn't surprise most observ ers, however, to see Russia stick her thumb into the pie and pull out a plum to match the nazis Be that as it may, in my mind we have one fundamental fact which we can use as a yardstick in measuring Russo-German re lations. This is that their inter ests clash heavily, and especial ly in the Balkans. The fact that they haven't come to blows can not alter this situation. In my view there will be a pay-off sooner or later. oniinm o nr niTW l HI II II III- I II T uuiiuulu ui un I TO OPEN MONDAY rnn nil Trnn rl IK I-nil IhKIUI I Ull I nLL ILIMII (O unud truta Pat One.) past year or two and It may be , erine Campbell who resigned on found necessary to transfer account of her marriage. some pupils to the Jackson and tn u,, jun0r high and ele- Lincoln, ho transfers will belmenUrv chools a number of made, however, until schools transfers have been made, but open and the exact conditions , one new teacher has been high school r ARISTOCRAT OF i r I.J pints OSrlj . , W.40 ';;fg 1;,;; Quarts .V 92.70 JZ m - ' mm 3 Meteorological Report Be C. .
