A surprise meeting between the U.S. Secretary of State Mr John Foster Dulles and the Soviet Foreign Minister Mr Molotov will be held in Berlin today, it was announced officially.

France Presse says Mr Dulles and Mr Molotov will attempt to settle technical matters-concerning the conference which four power officials did not succeed in settling last week.

When the meeting was first announced all sorts of that was suggested

hypotheses were ventured. It

Hitler Not To Blame

For British

Escape At Dunkirk

London, Jan. 25.

Hitler was not to blame for the German Army's failure to wipe out the British Army during the Dun- volume de- kirk evacuation in 1940, an official war clared today.

The volume, second of a series of war histories written with Government approval, said German military apologists claimed that Hitler's "amateur interference" in the German campaign allowed the British to escape.

"I Don't Believe Atlantis Ever Existed"

Says American Scientist

Boston, Jan. 24.

An American scientist said today he did not believe the so-called "lost civilisation of Atlantis” ever existed.

For years archaeologists have stated that in the depths of the Atlantic Ocean they believed there existed the remains of the lost city. Expeditions have attempted to locate it. Relics have even been re- covered from the Atlantic and offered as proof of the existence of the lost city.
