SERIOUS STUDY
OF ROOSEVELT’S SPEECH HITLER AND RIBBENTROP BUSY. FORMAL REPLY POSSIBLE. I By Telegraph—Press Assoclation—Copyrightl LONDON. January 2. The correspondent of “The limes on the German frontier says 1 hat Herr Hitler and his Foreign Minister, Herr Kibbenf imp, have been in almost continuous conference after receiving the text of President Roosevelt's speech, studying its purport from every conceivable angle.
The Wilhclmstrasse spokesman told foreign correspondents that a formal reply was possible. He added that Mr. Roosevelt’s pronouncement was such a momentous challenge that Germany would have to reply, otherwise it would bo tantamount to Herr Hitler capitulating on uncompromisable fundamentals.
The threatening note with which the spokesman had warned the United States on December 22 was absent from the Wilhelmstrassc’s latest semiofficial statement. Sorrow and disappointment instead of anger is now the keynote.
