The correspondent of a neutral newspaper in Berlin says that Herr Hitler was pale with anger when he left the conference on Thurs- day after an exchange of opinions with his advisers.
Another neutral correspondent reports that responsible German circles still hope that disaster may be avoided by neutral efforts.
-Anxiety is reported to be felt by German army, navy and air force chiefs at the Soviet push in the Baltic, and the Soviet-Finnish de- velopments have added to these fears.
