MOSCOW. May 16. (U. Government-controlled newspapers accused Great Britain and Prance today of furthering an "imperialist war" and suggested that the con flict not only could conceivably spread to the Balkans and the Mediterranean, but also to the Far East. The official Tass agency circu lated editorials carried by the news papers Izvestia and Pravda which supported the German view and charged that Britain and France were bent on bringing additional neutral countries, and possibly the United States, into a new world war.

At the same time, the Kosmol-skya Pravda emphasized that the Soviet Union "'pursues a policy of genuine neutrality and unpartici- pation In imperialist war, thereby preventing spread ol tne war wj other areas and serving the peace interests of all "One may assume that In the near future the Mediterranean basin and the Balkan peninsula will become a new war theater," Izvestia said. "The war danger also grows in the Pacific. Contradictions between the United States and Japan are sharply aggravated in connection with the beginning of the struggle for 'Dutch inheritance in the Netherlands East Indies. Involves Half of Mankind. "The European war thus turns Into a world war.

The fields of Belgium and northern France have become the scene of a life-and-death struggle. The Imperialist war begins to demand millions of victims. Already 1,250,000,000 men, or over one-half of mankind, has been drawn Into the orbit of war In Eu rope and the Far East." Izvestia charged Britain and France probably would exert every effort to draw new countries into the conflict, adding, "one must reiterate again and again that the policies of certain small neutral countries assisting In further fan ning of the war can be described only as suicidal." Pravda said that after Germany had frustrated British-French plans in Scandinavia, the Allies turned to the Netherlands and Belgium and there received sympathy in "bour geois circles" which helped spread the war to the low countries. Ger many, however, took the initiative and beat the British and French at their own game, the newspaper added. Advantages Felt.

"At this new stage," Pravda com mented on the fighting, "the advan tages obtained by Germany because she took the Initiative in the of fensive already are felt. Having approached directly the Belgian and French frontier, and In some places crossed this frontier, Germany now can threaten the most important life centers of France and reinforce her bases of aviation operation against England. "This brings near a direct clash of the main warring forces and that is the very thing which the Anglo- French bloc persistently evades." Pravda said Britain and France could boast of only "one success: They succeeded In hurling two more small countries into the flames of the imperialist war." Seizure of Islands Cited. "The lamentations of the Anglo-French bourgeois press regarding the fate of the small neutral countries drawn into the war and regarding violation of international law will hardly lead anyone astray," the newspaper said. "As soon- as the hostilities extended to Denmark and Norway Britain seized the Faroe and Lofoten Islands.

No one can tell on the strength of what International law this was done. "Recently British troops landed in Iceland and it is significant that they reached there considerably earlier than the British landing force reached Holland, although Iceland is much farther away from the coast of England." Pravda concluded by saying that as the war menace spreads, "one should assume that the lessons of Norway, Belgium and Holland will have an effect on countries with whose hands the 'guarantors' now intend to pull chestnuts out of the fire and they will understand how great is the risk of getting burned."
