HITLER WANTS JAPS
TO ATTACK RUSSIA
LOS ANGELES — The noted
French journalist, Madame Gen
evive Tabouris, a former foreign
editor of a Paris newspaper told
1 a Los Angeles audience last night
, that Hitler will attempt to induce1
; Japan to attack Russia from one ;
i side this spring, while the Ger-j
j mans hurl another attack from
J the other direction.
She predicted Japan will re
fuse to attack Russia because she
already has spread her forces too
thinly.
The woman journalist believes
that a democratic revolution that,
will overthrow Premier Musso-'
lini and break with the Axis may
come soon in Italy.
