In Czechoslovakia there is a
wish that Hitler fail, coupled
with a concession that he is
entitled to a chance to show
that he can rule. There is
jubilation in Italy, which
sees a victory for Fascism.
And in Washington there
is optimism based upon the
hope that the new arrange
ment may make for stabil-
ity; but in New York there
was a drop of five points in
the mark. 1t was Hitler
who sought to arouse the
German people against the
acceptance of the Young
plan. That does not make
for optimism in banking
circles. We have a stake of
about $2,4SO,OOO,OOO in Ger

least. It does not mean at
this time an attempt at the
suppression of the commu-
nists by force. 1t dees not
intend an experiment in fl
nances or an indulgence in
any economic adventures. 1t
does not mean the incOrpOra-
tion of the Nazi army into
the German police as Musso-
lini incorporated his Black
Shirts into that of Italy. 1t
does not mean a revival of
militarism in the old sense.
Much of this is contrary
to the popular conception Of
Hitler's purpose and philoso-
ply. That is the reason there
is grave concern in France,
where his elevation promises
a speedy ending to the minis
terial crisis. There is some
anxiety in England, which
believes that Hindenburg has
taken "a great risk. " There
is a genuine fear in Poland,
which is now looking eagerly
to the move of France-with
whom she has an alliance.

to live down his past" but a
wife is always bound to cramp
. his future.
The average matrimonial
drama would make a bigger
hit and have a longer run if
the leading man would not so
quickly forget all the lines
that went over big with the
leading lady, during the little
rehearsal called "courtSnip."
A man has been known to
give a woman up because she
was "too good for him"-but
never to relinquish a fascinat-
ing little vamp because she was
too bad for him.
Before marriage, a man goes
seeking a woman who will be
different" from all other
women; after marriage, he
sometimes thinks that he would
be happy to find almost any
woman different from HER.
When girl tells a man he
mustn't say such things" to
her, the only point that seems
to impress him is whether or
not she keeps on listening.

away from it all!
That's what they wanted,
those poor, bewildered creatures
whose names you've just read.
That's why they took that des-
perate step toward peace.
Were they, wise? Did they
find the peace they sought?
You catch yourself thinking
about it-turning it over and
over in your mind. Presently,
there you are, up against the
reality of it, saying to yourself:
DO I WANT TO DO-THAT?"
And instantly you know you
don't!
No matter how hard life is,
you know you want to hold on
to it. Regardless of what the
coming year may bring, you
want to live it all.
Tough breaks? Sure, you've
had them. Yet, at the very
thought of suicide, a flame leaps
in you; a hunger races through
you! Never mind the pain!
Never mind the struggle! YOU
WANT TO LIVE! WHATEVER
1T COSTS, LIFE IS WORTH
WHILE!
With every drop of your blood,
with every spark of your intelli-
gence, you know that blazing
fact-LIFE IS WORTH WHILE.
If they could only have felt as
you are feeling now, those pitt
full five; if they could only have
been filled with that flame and
hunger, even for a second-they
would never have taken that aW-
full step. They'd have hung on
a little longer-a little longer
and then courage would have
warmed them again, and hope
would have returned, and they
would have been safe.
If they could only have felt
what you're feeling, they would
still be here. But now they are
gone, and nothing can bring
them back.
BUT THERE ARE OTHERS,
STILL LIVING, WHO ARE IN
AS DESPERATE NEED.
Hundreds of other human
beings are facing despair today.
For months they have been
growing more and more discour-
aged; more and more bitter and
bewildered. And now the dark
ness is closing around them, and
the light is fading. and they
know but one longing-longing
to escape.

Love-Artists and Artisans

Somehow, an attractive man
never can understand that,
while woman may admire
his as a work of art. she may
have no more vital interest in
kissing him than she would in
kissing the statue of the Apollo
Belvidere.
The modern young couple
appear to enter matrimony as
they do the theater; the first
thing they do is to look around
for the nearest exit.
One reason for so many shat
tered romances is the woman'S
insiStence upon detailed "eXpla-
nations" Because, while the av'
erage man may be an artist at
lying, he is only an artisan at
explaining.

but the trouble, in these days,
is that you never know what

ONCE OVERS
The Present Generation

The Present Generation
There seems to be more sentl'
ment and brotherly feeling
abroad in the world today than
for many a year.
More people are living on the
same level, socially and tlnan-
cially.
Thousands who never until
now could sympathize with
those in trouble or financial
distress, because they had
never experienced it, have been
reduced to the same afflictlon.
It is doubtful if the present
generation will ever forget the
lessons it has learned, nor will
it be as unsympathetic and cal
louS as before.
Even if those in financial
straits who have seen pros
porous days should regain their
wealth, they will not forget the
plights of the unfortunate.
Suffering and privation bring
people closer together.
And a certain sweetness and
generosity of heart come to the
surface in many cases, which
the persons themselves did not
know they possessed.
People have a more humane
view of life and that is one of
the good things that has come
out Of the depression, certainly.
The improvement may not be
worth what it has cost all
around, but it has made some
people more thoughtful and
kindly and there is genuine
striving to divide with the less
fortunate on all sides.

Hitler Is an Enemy
Of Democracy

One thing we know-Hit-
ler is an enemy Of democracy.
Another thing we suspect
Hitler is not a friend of the
republic.
Another thing is feared in
many quarters-that Hitler
will manage to get supreme
power and adopt extreme
nationalistic policies that
may disturb the none too
secure equilibrium of the
world.
But there is another thing
that cannot be escaped
that Hitler is the symbol Of
youth in revolt against the
\ plan adopted in the peace
congress for the crucifixion
of Germany and the perma-
nent reduction of the Ger
man people to the status of
hewers Of wood and drawers
of water for the rest of
mankind.
From the moment the
German representatives were
forced to sign on the dotted
line at Versailles Hitlerism
was inevitable.
Woodrow Wilson knew
the terms were inhuman and
impossible, but thought that
the League of Nations
would make possible and
certain the revision of the
treaty. And nothing has

TIE WAS an Austrian, not
III a German, and because
Of the poverty Of his family
he was street cleaner.
Cleaning streets is not the
usual avenue to power IN
Europe.
When the war broke, he
entered the German army
and fought as a foreigner
and the highest military rank
he attained was that OF a
corporal.
Two and a half years ago
he was not even a German
citizen.
This week, one day, great
parading by the old chancel-
lory in Berlin shouting his
name-"Hail Hitler" and
the marchers turned their
faces as they passed to an
unlighted window where, in
the red flares, could be seen
the strong face Of one Of the
greatest men Of all time
Hindenburg. The crowd

!, been done by the League;
and something has just been
done by the Germans.
Hitler Is Not
Yet Master
Hitler is ch4ncellor-he
sits in the seat of Bismarck,
Caprivi, Won Bulow, but he
is not yet the master. But
the camel has it's head in the
tent. Within the tent, there
may not be room for the
camel and it's keepers.
Not long ago, Hindenburg
defeated Hitler overwhelm-
ingly for the presidency, but
it is probable no other man
could. Hindenburg is an
institution, he is a race, he
is a country.
And Hindenburg, noted
for his fidelity to oaths,
stands for the republic. He
once declared he would not
name Hitler chancellor-that
he would resign first. But
Hindenburg is a realist and
he has called Hitler to
power.
In calling him to power
Hitler had to take an oath
an oath of allegiance to
the republic. That was not
enough: Hindenburg has
packed the ministry against
his chancellor. The majority
of the new ministers are
conservatives; some are re-
dictionaries; one IS thought
to be a restorationist, per-
haps two. The erstwhile
corporal sits surrounded by
personages he once had to
salute.
But he eats no humble pie.
Thus emerging from his tri-
umphs, he issues a defiant
statement:
1.-THE National Socialist
party knows that the new
government is no National
Socialist Government, but it
is conscious that it bears the
name of its leader, Adolf Hit
ler. He has advanced with
his shock troops, and has
placed himself at the head of
the government to lead the
German people to liberty"
But he adds a word for
Hindenburg to which he has
been unaccustomed:
''In this hour we wish to
thank President Won linden
burg whose immortal fame
as a field marshal in the bat
tlefields of the World War
binds his name perpetually to
that of young Germany,
which is striving with burn
ing heart to gain its liberty"

does not mean-just now, ct
