NO PEACE PROPOSALS
RECEIVED BY MR WELLES
AND NONE CONVEYED,
GERMAN AND ITALIAN COMMENTS.
(Received This Day.- 1,5 p.m.)
LONDON. March 19.
Mr Sumner Welles disclosed that no belligerent or other European Government had placed a peace plan or mediation proposals before him. He added emphatically that he had not conveyed suggestions for peace to any Power.
A Wilhelmstrasse spokesman told neutral journalists that there was no question of Germany making peace proposals. On the contrary. Germany was resolved to carry on the war until the Allies were completely defeated' and Germany's vital needs secured for all time. Hitler's peace offer of last October no longer exists, owing to its rejection by England and France. Signor Gayda, writing in the "Giornale d'ltalia." says it is ridiculous to consider Signor Mussolini as running between the capitals of Europe on behalf of pacification for which no government is asking. Signor Mussolini has not sought a further conference with Mr Welles.
