NEW ORDER IN EAST

AMPLE LIVING SPACE RETURN OF COLONIES “NO MORE DEMANDS” (Elec. Te). Copyright—United Press Assn.) (Reed. Oct. 26, 9 a.m.) LONDON, Oct. 25. “Germany takes up the British challenge. The end can only be a decisive German victory,” said the German Foreign Minister, Herr von Ribbentrop, during his speech before the Nazi rally at Danzig yesterday. The Nazi Minister spoke for an hour and a quarter.

He declared that the new order in the east gave Germany colonising space for generations. Then, he said, with the exception of the return of colonies, to which every great Power was entitled, Germany had no demands on France and Britain. British “Perfidies” He detailed the British “perfidies,” including the 1915 Italian agreement; secondly, promises to the Arabs last year; thirdly, '.non-payment of war debts to America; fourthly, promises of Dominion status to India; and finally, the agreement between Herr Hitler and the British Prime Minister, Mr. Neville Chamberlain, in 1938 in which Mr. Chamberlain promised not to make war on Germany.

Berlin messages state that the German press harps on the theme that Britain rejected the Fuehrer's “magnanimous and unselfish offer to preserve the British Empire, but Britain wanted to keep Europe divided, because it would be easier to dominate it, just as British envy persecuted Japan.”
