WARNING NOTE
HITLER OLIVE BRANCH REJECTION ILL-ADVISED FUTURE OF ALLIES POSSIBLE REVERSES (Reed. Oct. 17, 9 a'.m.) NEW YORK, Oct. 15. . The Rome correspondent of the New York Times states that the Italian press attempts to convince the British Prime Minister, Mr. Neville Chamberlain, that he should not reject HenHitler’s olive branch, and warns him that rejection will mean a' war without quarter, which, may end possibly in defeat for the Allies. The correspondent says that the Resto del Carlino even states that il the German submarine campaign continues at the present rate the entire British fleet will be destroyed by 1940. No mention is made of the 17 submarines the British and French navies are reported to have sunk, nor whether Germany is able to replace them. Conservative circles in Italy, maintain that the Allies have not explained their real desires, and express the opinion that the demand that Germany should evacuate Poland means that the British and French wish to solve in advance the very problems which should be the object of the conference Herr Hitler proposed.
