RETURN TO GENEVA URGED ON HITLER
(SPECIAL TO “TELEGRAPH”)
(By Telegraph. Copyright, Telegraphic Messages Ordinance, 1894. Received, June 15, 8.56 a.m.)
Vonice, June 14. An air of drama pervaded the meeting to-day of Herr Hitler and Signor Mussolini. The two outstanding Fascist statesmen had never before come face to face and their faces and actions were closely studied during the day for signs of antipathy or a ready friendship, The absence of any real information of the trend of the actual talks accentuated the common interest as to whether. Hitler and 11 Duce would find common sympathies. Observers were completely satisfied. When they first met, both seemed to take stock of the other, and their handshake was long and cordial. Their association later added to the conviction that no personal dislikes will mar the conversations. Only one important fact has leaked out concerning the talks. It is reliably learned that Signor Mussolini urged Herr Hitler to return to Geneva and to com- plete the application of the Four-Power Pact.
