not with the help of Henry P.
Fletcher, new chairman of the
national committee.
AS a matter of fact, Henry's
first job as No. 1 salesman for
the G. o. P. was a sad flop.
Having read newspaper re-
ports that the golden tongued
statesman from Idaho planned
considerable stump speaking this
summer, Fletcher hied himself to
Borah's office. 1t has been a
long, long time since the latter
has been waited on by a nation
al Republican chairman, and he
was not unaware of the coinpli-
ment. Nor of Fletcher's willy
fineSse in making it.
The personal greeting between
the two was cordial. But that
was ALL
When Fletcher explained that
he had called in the warm hope
that the senator would see his
way clear to make several ad-
dresses under the auspices of the
Republican national committee,
Borah froze.
Politely, but with terse blunt
ness, he informed his distin-
guished visitor that he had abso-
lutely no intention of doing so. He
was going TO talk, he said, but
strictly on his own responsibility.
What he had to say would find
favor neither with Republicans
nor Democrats.

"A quietly, looking Fletcher
squarely in the eye, the Republic

VIENNA, July 80 G.N.SO.
Austria has a new government
today. Dollfuss is buried. The
Nazis Of this country are crushed.
But confidence and peace have
not yet been restored to Europe
and the attention Of the conti-
nent is turned now, six days
after the murder Of Dollfuss, to
the anxious question:
'What Of war;"
War Peril Wanes?
Against the chances Of war
speak the following considera-
tionS:
First, the independence of Aus
tria is safe for the time being.
BY his death Dollfuss secured
his country's liberty. War was
most likely to come if Germany
took Austria. But that is now
remoter than ever.
Second, important elements of
the French government believe
that Hitler is driving Germany
rapidly to bankruptcy and break
down. They consider Hitler is
doing Frances work for her.
Therefore, war is unnecessary.
Third, fear is still paramount
that the next war, whether it be-
gins today or tomorrow or in 10
years time, will bring Commun-
ism to the whole continent and
there are reasons to predict even
now that war is. not imminent.
On the other hand the factors
that speak for war are disturb
ingly strong.
For one thing, there are power
full elements in France that want
to fight Germany now when they
think they can win in order to
prevent war tomorrow when Ger
many will perhaps be strong
enough to win. These elements
see their chances to attack Ger.
many with the approval Of the
world greatly improved today.
This is by far the most menac.
ing factor in the question of war
or peace at this moment. There
are many reasons why France has
not yet attacked Germany. The
most important reason was be-
cause Italy'S attitude was uncer-
tain. Today Italy has become
the leader of European public
opinion in condemning Germany
and there is no longer any ques-
ton Of Italian support for Hitler.
Thus, although there is no
occasion for war to preserve the
