The king referred to Metaxas as "He, who with my consent said a proud 'No' to brazen Invaders on the historic dawn of Oct. 28.' The government ordered a na- Uonal mourning. The funeral was scheduled for Friday and a communique said that "every honor shall be paid him as befits a cardinal figure in the history of the land." King George went to the Me taxas residence to pay his re spects and offer condolences to the family. - Pledging himself to follow Metaxas domestic and military ' policies, the king in bis procla mation declared: , "I am convinced that, inspired .,: by the high example of the re- ' cent bright pages of our national lift and tightly unified around tj my ' throne, we shall bring the 'gigantic struggle now being ' wagea oy ine neroic ureex army on the battlefield to a successful V esselusion."

Gayda said "Cordell Hull must have known that the policy of the North American government long has been vio lating the elementary principles of neutrality. "Violation of neutrality with out provocation becomes ag gressive. As such it exposes one to the legitimate danger we say legitimate of reaction from the offended powers." Gayda asserted that transfer of American destroyers to Brit ' ain was an example of "open violation of International law." The editor drew a distinction between Washington's position ana the Tion4eIHKerencv" which Italy used to 'define her position before she declared war last June 10. The Italian policy, Gayda said, was Justified by the axis alliance with Ger many and controversial ques tions pending between Italy and the allies. "These two reasons do not exist for the United States," Gayda asserted. "But North American policy already is far beyond that of non-belligerence. It already is on the edge of waging war."
