“Inspired Plans”

HITLER AND RUMANIA MINISTERS IN AGREEMENT ATTITUDE OF RUSSIA (United Press Assn.—Elec. Tel. Copyright) (Received July 30, 3.15 p.m.) LONDON, July 29 The Bulgarian, Rumanian and Slovak Ministers have returned to their respective countries. Dr. Gigurtu said: “We were received in the friendliest manner at Salzburg and Rome. Well-informed circles in Bucharest declared that the Council of Ministers will initiate discussions with Bulgaria and Hungary, dealing with economic and cultural relations, besides territorial disputes. It is added that there is a conviction that no territorial changes will be made until the end of the war. It is generally believed that the Russian-German policy of mutual understanding ended with the Russian occupation of Bessarabia, and henceforth the Soviet policy will be mainly opportunist, influenced largely by the degree to which Germany commits herself in the total offensive against Britain. M. Filoff, in Sofia, described the conversations with Hitler as extremely pleasant. He added: “Now everyone knows that Bulgaria’s are just territorial claims.” Dr. Sano Mach, Propaganda Minister in Slovakia, said: “We Slovaks were the first people co-ordinated in the struggle for the realisation of the inspired plans of the Fuehrer.”
