THE WAR':
WEEK BY WEEK
As the European war drewo::
ward theclose of its fifth week,
events on the military, the diplo-
male and the 'propaganda fronts
hinged upon the acceptance or re-
jection by Great Britain and
France of : Adolf Hitler's project-
ed, peace: Could the Fuehrer, with
.the .he.p�of• Mussolini and the im-
plied backing of the Soviet Union;:
swing it? What if he should offer
to abdicate as head of the German
state? Would the war' develop
,from a gigantic • "shadow -hexing" ,
•affair (as many • people . believed it,
,'. to. be} on the .,Western Front, into,
a hideous' conflict involving most
of the world, or would hostilities
• cease for the present to be follow-
ed perhaps in. -a few short months
by ,'worse crises, more • horrible
