Italy and Germany.

The repression of Germany has squeezed Hitler to the top, and has resulted in the apparent abrogation in that country of allnatural rights, but this apparent insanity is all in furtherance of an ideal-growth. Reeently Germany occupied a pieceof land which was her own. Similarly Mussoliniis bent on the conquest of Abyssinia which, unfortunately, liesin the way of British communications to the East. To protect themselves against these outburstsof strength Britain, France and Russia, the old combination, cling to the policy of collective security-they cleave to the League.

Secretly, this apparently clearcut position is complicated by the crooked ways of capitalism which has financed German and Italian re-armament.
