“National Socialism, Fascism and Communism may be good for Ger- many, Italy anu Russia," he said,‘

The Presidents message to thet United States Congress, he went on, "unquestionably is an indication of a long war which is likely to spread to other parts of the world.

The aims of Bulgarian foreign policy, he said, are "to guard the l eople from the terror of war and n general keep Bulgaria and all the Balkans at peace." but he add- ed: "To keep the peace does not depend on Bugaria. We must real- ize that one dav we may have to enter the war. _ stressing that “the peope must be prepared to defend their vital interests." the Premier thanked. It- aly.

tion, was returned to Bulgaria by Romania some weekg. ago.

He spoke in friendly iashion of Romania and said Bulgaria hopes to obtain her other revisionist claims by peaceful means.

The general impression among

Bulgarians was that Philoff foresaw that a power such as Germany might enter Bulgaria but it would be under Bulgarian Drotest.
