Agreement Between Italy,
Germany, Japan Bind
Them To Future Action
Officials Say Pact
Aims At No Power
ROME, Nov. 6. - (A) - Fascists
warned the world tonight that the
military forces of Italy, Germany and
Japan were prepared to back the tri-
power anti- Communist pact signed
today.
They intimated that the brief
agreement, which makes Italy a char-
ter member of the German-Japanese
anti-Bolshevist front, binds the three
powers to "collaboration" which goes
beyond even the fight on Commu-
nism.
At the same time, officials empha- I
sized that the pact was not directed
against any country - not even
Russia, "which may have all the
Communism she wants as long as she
keep it at home."
Add Up Military Forces
Italian writers interpreted the
agreement in terms of the military
forces of the three powers. Virginio
Gayda, leading commentator, said
that 2,000,000 tons of warships and
20,000,000 men were now at the dis-
posal of the anti-Communist front.,
Newspapers glowingly described Ja-
pan's naval strength.
The agreement contains no mili-
tary clauses, but binds the signatories
to full exchange of information on
the world spread of Communism and
the means necessary to combat it.
The protocol signed today brought in,
Italy as though she had been an
original signatory to the German-
Japanese agreement of Nov. 25, 1936.
Ja.pan, "which is engaged in a hard,
Asiatic anti-Communist struggle,"
was especially lauded by Fascist com-
mentators.
.Cite U.S. 'Withdrawal'
The United Sates' "gradual with-
drawal from the western shores of
the Pacific" was given in the sum-
maries of Japan's naval position as a
factor affecting the Empire's strength
since the Washington Treaty of 1922.
Japan was described as working
"for a new form of life more human
and at the same time more virile,
and for a more just organization of
international affairs." Thus, the pjyess
stated, Italian-Japanese interests co-
incide, opposed to those of the "big,
reactionary democracies."

Detroit's Large Vote Attributed
By Editors To Press Campaign
Strenuous campaigning by Detroit
newspapers in the recent municipal
elections caused a large total vote, but
had little effect on the direction of
that vote, in theopinion of two Mich-
igan editors and a member of the
State Legislature, here for the Uni-
versity Press Club Convention.
They expressed the belief that the
main effect of the press campaign
against the CIO slate was the clar-
ification of what they termed the
only real issue of the campaign-
whether or not to preserve non-par-
tisan and non-factional government
Both Mr. Averill and Mr. Brown
believe that to differing degrees thel
Detroit newspapers threw objectivity
to the winds in their news columns.
Editorial opinion was not* reserved
for the space labeled "editorial" but
spread through "news" reports of the l
campaign.
This practice was criticized by Mr.'
Brown, while Mr. Averill condoned it
in cases where a paper feels a loom-
ing danger threatens society-as in
the Detroit elections. Both, however,
emphasized the difficulties involved in
presenting an objective description of
