League of Nations drifted and Mussolini’s Greece setback
The piece surveys new League enrollments by Axis-leaning states led by Adolf Hitler’s diplomacy with Bulgaria and Slovakia while noting Mussolini’s faltering invasion of Greece. It mentions Japan and Hungary under Axis influence, Bulgaria’s hesitation, and British help arriving in Greece as Italian advances stall. The tone blends diplomatic theory with war weariness and neutral commentary on recent campaigns.

Blood and arrests in Rumania foment fascist purge
Anarchy in Rumania sees the Iroquois Guard execute at least 64 political enemies. They raid a jail where political prisoners were held and executed during a rally at the founder Codreanu’s tomb. The government disapproves while factions claim Codreanu’s martyr status motivates vengeance. Strikes hit U.S. defense plants with wage and arbitration disputes, including Voltec Aircraft in Downey and Aluminum Company of America in New Kensington, drawing congressional attention and labor leadership interventions.
