Stark, Associated Press Staff Writer) | HAVANA, July D-(AH-The United States offered Latin Am- erica its leadership and dollars to- clay in a bold fight against the w- talitarian system of self-sufficient leoonomy, and called for joint trusteeship over any Eturopean colonies in the western hemisphere threatened with transfer to any other European powers. . State secretary Cordell Hull, de- fining the program of his country ibefore the second conference of [American foreign ministers, put the plan 0c a cooperative basis but clearly indicated the United States was ready to throw its full resources behind its execution. l In his speech, expected to as-‘ fume the status of a policy-guid- ng declaration for the conference. Hull condemned "forces of ruth- less conquest which shrink from no means of attaining their ends." Polntecllyr, he served notice that, the United States would not coun- l tenanoe filly effort, to "modify the existing status" of European one. [sessions in the western world, “whether by oesslon, by transfer, ‘or by any impairment whatsoever ‘h; "the control heretofore exercis- e . - I It would be "suicidal." he said for the American republics to fail to "recognize iii time and not to prepare to meet fully and decis- lyclrig’ the dangers confronting l? . "Decisive remedial action" is im- perative. the secretary declared, to combat subversive activities which: he termed "an attempt to acquire domination of the American Re- publics by foreign governments in their own interests." He gave the United States‘ en- dorsement for a protectorate by all the Americas over any threat- ened European holdings on this side of the Atlantic and pledged its cooperation “should the occas- ion arlsc. in its execution." Hull counselled that such u. trusteeship should be free of any idea of “special interests by any American Republic" and that "as soon as conditions permit, the region should be restored to its original sovereign or be declared independent when able to estab- _lisli and maintain stable self-gov- eriiment." His words, gravely spoken, gave further emphasis to an already formally presented note warning Germany and Italy the United States would resist, alone if ne- cessary, any attempt to lay hands on French, British or Netherlands colonies in the new world. Hull urged creation of facilities for temporary marketing of sur-I plus commodities and the develop- ment of agreements to assure equity for producers and consum- BIS. The first step is designed to thwart any attempt by Germany or others to gain economic, then political domination of any Am- erican country through individual barter dealings. The second step is intended more for development of special com- modltv agreements or pools, ap- parently patterned after the in- ternational rubber and tin cartels. This plan is broad enough to take in any important commodity such as coffee. wheat. meat and min- erals which some countries must export to live. Hull indicated one method of disposing of present large sur- pluses miglit be relief distribution. N. Y. Times Sees llitler Having Trouble Y RK. Julv 23 (Tuesday)- l l effects.

Long before Lord Halifax pro- claimed that Great, Britain would go on fighting "until frccdom for our- selves and others is secure," in fact. before Hitler made his "last chance” bid, it was obvious that. no compro- mise would be accepted. The expectation voiced in Berlin that the Halifax broadcast would be accepted by Hitler us Britain's an- l swer could mean that the assault would be unleashed soon. Yet the actual "zero hour" Is ii matter for; determination oii military groundsl Whatever the nature of that at- tack, weather conditions and pros- pects must go farther to set the mo- ment of its initiation than Hitler's whim. Germany has assembled experteto weigh weather prospects not only for any clay, but for weeks ahead. Interruption of the assault b storms or fogs, once it gets llll or way, would seriously impair its effective- nass Under normal conditions tlie rest of July all of August and much of Septem er would afford conditions- for the sort of attuck Hitler pictur- ed in his Relclislag speech. British nerves arc keyed to a ten- sion never known before Neutral observers testing British reactions by every means at their command, find nothing to suggest waverin8- This is a factor with which Hitler still must reckon. is a significant circumstance that as the rezo hour near; for Britain, the dangers of immediate invasion appear to lessen in British eyes, to be repiaced by anticipation of a wholesale airattac-k on England, and a simultaneous alr-and-submar- ine assault on British shipping, naval bases and warcriift. Against long odds, Britain's air force denied the Germans‘ air mas- terv at Dunkerque long enough to embark a third of a million men from the beach. Except for naval units with the fleets and detach. merits in tlie near east, the whole strength of the Royal Air Force ls now concentrated ln Britain, Some neutral observers believe tilt Ger- man numerical superiority in the all‘ is still far from ensuring the de- gree of air mastery over Britain or her home waters essential for the quick victory Hitler has prophesied.

Lord Halifax will make a short speech late today, presumably in IOIIII reply to Hitler's throats lest Friday, but the British press and Che people generally considered that Mr. Churcliil had answered them in advance when he made his radio Mr. Churchill reaffirmed Bri- tain's determination to flgnl; from town to town, from street to street and if necessary from shore across the Empire until Nazidom is van ulshed and free- dom re-establla ed in countries which enjoyed it before the Ger- man menace began its sweep ac- ross Itirope. . Noll Mentality Whether or not. the German Government aQuelly believed it could influence British opinion favorably by this new "peace oi- fenalve" was not clear. but it was considered possible Berlin might think so in view of the complete lack of understanding it has shown toward the British mentality on other occasions. The Nlll regime which was founded on terror seems to find itself in a position of acute un- coolness when it. la confronted by a. nation which shows no exhibi- tion of fear. llitler and his colleagues have been fulminating against Britain and threeteiiin her with deatruo- tion for mcu u. without being able to cause any very effective damage.
