Nazis Object

Two Nazi diplomatic protests were made to the Argentine Foreign Office last week. The first, coldly furious, objected to an expose of Nazi fifth columners in Argentina, published in the well-edited, pro-British picture magazine Desfile. The second objected to the same magazine's reprinting from LIFE (Dec. 9) the speech allegedly made to a secret Nazi council by Nazi Minister of Agriculture Richard-Walther Darre ("We will introduce . . . a new aristocracy of German masters. . . . We actually have in mind a modern form of medieval slavery which we must and will introduce because we urgently need it in order to fulfill our great tasks").

Before the Argentine Foreign Office made any reply, La Prensa, great Argentine daily, declared: "If the Argentine Government heeds this German protest, we'd be accountable for printing such news as Secretary of War Stimson's [Navy convoy] speech."
