DANUBE PLANS
DEVELOPMENT OF GERMAN POLICY NEGOTIATIONS IN PROGRESS WITH YUGOSLAVIA. VISION OF EASTERN TRADE ROUTE. By Telegraph—Press Association. Copyright. LONDON, October 5. The first concrete indication of the early implementation of Herr Hitler’s visionary policy on the Danube becomes evident in a visit by the Economics Minister, Herr Funk, to Yugoslavia and Turkey. The Belgrade correspondent of “The Times” says Herr Funk declared that a mixed German and Yugoslav committee had been formed and was drafting a new trade treaty. Germany, he said, was able to negotiate for a longer term and offer better prices than others. Germany could absorb one-half of Yugoslavia’s production. Herr Funk added that Germany desired a settlement of economic relations in this part of Europe.
The Angora correspondent of the “Daily Telegraph” says it is understood Herr Funk’s mission in southen Europe is the creation of a new trade route from India, via the Near East, Turkey, the Black Sea, the Danube, the Main, and the Rhine, by which she will regain domination in the Balkans and increase her economic influence in the Near East.
