Europe Must Be Freed From Perpetual Threats QUEENS & ALHAMBRA
Of Violence, Says Hitler-And Names England! NAZI PROPAGANDISTS STEAL OUR THUNDER
LONDON, Jan. 28 (Reuter).-A review of Nazi propaganda during one of its the past month shows that it is developing steadily on fundamental principles-accusing the Allies of the weakness the Nazis suffer from themselves.
This principle went into operation when the Nazis realised how greatly German sources of news were discredited. So the Nazis now proceed to try to discredit Allied news.
NAZI "WAR AIMS"
One of the most striking features of this has been on the subject of war and peace aims.
Hitler decided to announce GALA PREMIERE
In the New Year message to the German people, the German war aims. So he took over the war aims of
the Allies!
Germany and Europe must be freed from violence and the perpetual threats which proceeded from England, he said.

Churchill's Speech Distorted LONDON, Jan. 28 (Reuter),~--Ger- man propaganda is already trying to distort the speech made by Mr. Winston Churchill at Manchester.
The newspaper, "Diplomatische Korrespondenz, which is in close touch with the Nazi Foreign Ofee, said that Mr. Churchill reproached neutrals for "shirting from what is alleged to be their war."
There is no attempt to prove this pont or back it up and Mr. Churchill himself would be somewhat puzzled' to find out where they got this idea except possibly from his reference to the fact that Nazi sympathy for neutrals has been chiefly shown by siniting their ships.
