EUROPEAN WAR TO GROW, PREDICTS POLYZOIDES
“The Russian war with Finland is over, Under-Secretary Sumner Welles’ trip to Europe is over, and the only thing that remains is this strange war now seven-months old,” writes Adamantios Th. Polyzoides, lecturer in international relations, in the April edition of the Alumni Review.
Lecturer Polyzoides says that the -
Eurcpean war is still retarded in growth, and it is a mistake to think that the muddle will not develop into a full-fledged struggle for supremacy, especially since the recent statements of all belligerent governments to President Roosevelt's emissary were very plain and to the point.
