In the event that Halifax Is named foreie.il secretary, the prime minister himself was expected to take avor foreign affairs in the House of Commons.

Tlalirax sits in the House of Lords. The Eden who had been foreign secretary for two years and two months acknowledged bis dlrrer-euces with Chamberlain in his leKer of resignation. He was (he youngest man in years to direct British foreign policy. The breach was opened when the prime minister started Anglo-Italian friendship nesotiatlons with the Italian Count Dinu Grandl, lo. "It cannot be in the country's Jn-tere3is that those who are called upon to direct Its nffalrs should work in uneasy partnership, fully conscious of differences in outlook yet hoping they will not reciir," Eden's letter to Cbain-herlain said.

"This applies with special force io the relationship between the prime minister ami the foreign secretary." Wrole, addiu: "I cr.n Lever foreet the help and counsel you have always so readily giver, me both before and since you became prime minister." Chamberlain, in replying, said both their uJlfmatn aims ana fundamentals uf policy were the same and that the difference developed on une phase of policy. "The decision which you find yourself unable fo accept," Chamberlain write, "is whether the present moment is nr.nraprlate for cotntisencetnent of Anglo-Italian conversations." Th-js Italian pnllcy brought Eden into office as foreign secretary and forced liliu out- Twtjnty-six months ago Eden succeeded Sir Somuel ffoare because Hoare, with Pierre Laval of France tried to make a deai with Mussolini io gtve Italy a slice of.

There also was command on the fad that Hitler bitterly attacked (he Lea-gue ot through which Eden rose to prominence as Ihe "white knight of Geneva."

Abstract TrMidatcd From Hitter Address (Continued frotu Page One) on his bead, i The vrtj controls tbe Jllcb politically and the armed forces defend this Rlch In th military spliere. "Every Institution in this Reich lias its appointed taalts and there is no one in any responsible position lu this state who doubts I the authorised leader of this Miller said the reason he took over tho direct eotnmanil of the armed forces at this time was that "problems ot the future demanded stronger concentration of political and military might." Germany was peaceful but not cowardly, Hitler emphasized, adding; "If ever international agllallbn poisoning public opinion should see to destroy tho peace of our Reich, then steel and iron will protect the German people and their German homeland and the world uuickiy will see how thoroughly this Reich, ttila people, party and armed forces are filled with one spirit and how fnnut-kaliy motivated by one will-" He expressed the opinion that if Britain were suddenly to dissolve the empire and England had to support itself by her own resources, Englishmen would have far more understanding of Germany's problems. Hitler said "although Germany has achieved the impossible In managing to get alony within her present boril ers so fur, the world cannot expect us to go on forever from year to year.

"Therefore, there will be an increasing demand for those colonial poasesslons which Germany did not take away from other powers and which' for these- powers todaj are practically useless yet for our own people seem Indispensable." Offers-of loana Instead of colonies nre not wanted. Hitler said. "I hare a deep-seated distrust for conferences." 1 Hitler also reiterated at some length his dislike for the League of Nations and spurned any suggestion Germany might vet return to the league. Germany does not Intend to let itself he dragged Into anyone else's rjuarrel nor dues it intend to deny the existence ot ubyious facts. "Let roe repeat again thfll.U-erinaay especially alter the departure ol Italy from the league--does not eveu dream ot ever Eotng back, into Unit institution," He said, however, that rejection ot the League did not mean unwillingness to cooperate with other powers.

Soviet Russia, Hitler declared, Is tbe only slate with which Nazi Germany has no desire to cooperate for Soviet 3iussia trying to Holshevlze the world. If England was really anxious to defend her slRtua iUO. IBtler remarked, she would energetically oppose the Bolshevization uf other countries. "Fur such Bolfthevlzed regions, are then no lunger states with a national life of thelr own but Only sections of the Moscow revolu-tionarv center. "I know Mr.

Eden (British foreign fecretary) does not share view. Stalin does and openly admits it." Elaborating his theme In cennee tion with the war in China, Hitler said "I ain afraid Japanese defeat In Eat Asia never would benefit Europe or America but solely Bolshevist Soviet Russia. "1 do not think China spiritually or materially slrowg enough lu resist a Bolshevist ullensive alone. But-1 do the most sweeping Japanese Ticlnry would be infinitely less dangerous for civilization anil the en oral peace of the world than a Bql-i bevist victory." Hitler said Gcroiany remained ani-ious for a resumption ol peaceful relations between Japan and China and believed there might, bave beeu peace LiTore. this It others "lusl an ia tee case of Ethiopia" hadn't mixed tt.

lu any ease "Germany, in defuse aaainsl communism, will always rft gard the value of Japan as an ele-. ment of security, "Germany has no territorial interests in Fast Asia, it has n'n dcslri: to. engage in and trade. This doeE not put us vmiii-r anv obligation to lake sides with either party. Rut it does oblige us to recognize that a Bolshevist Vic lory would annihilate the" last possibilities (or.

He said Germany likewise has no tei rltorial Interest" In Spain. "Much baa been said and even more written In recout years about tbe basic differences between France and England on tbe one hand and Germany on the olher," he said. "It is not exactly clear to me just what these differences aie supposed in be. Germany, as I more than once have emphasized, hns no further territorial demands against France lu Europe. It is our hope that with the return ot the Saar, the period of FrRnco-Gcrman territorial disputes is deri-nUelv ended, "Nor has Germany any quarrel whatsoever with England aside from our colonial desires.
