Macdonald and Hitler.
(New York TimeD


 It is difficult to say in which country Prime Minister MacDonad's violent attack upon the Hitler regime caused more surprise-Germany or England. Germany both surprised and offended. She had long been accustomed to think of MT. Mac Donald her best friend among European states men Not during the was he bitterly anti German. After it he did everything in his power both in office and out of it. to bring about a great appeasement in Europe, with Germany taking her due part in it. But he has shown much sym pathy with the tyrannical Government having it's motto blood and iron, which has been in power in Berlin during the past two years It was one thing to work for peace hand in hand with Stresemann, but quite another to attempt it with Hitler.
 British opinion about the Macdonald blast against Hitler takes largely political twist. MT Lansbury for the Labor Party speaks of the Prime Minister sort of renegade, denying his old principles and changing his old position. The judg ment of Liberals appears to be that the Prime Min ster has yielded pressure from the Conservatives in the Government who have been forecasting Mac Donald's retirement before long, to be replaced by MT. Baldwin. On this theory, the Prime Minister seized the opportunity to flash out with kind of bold leadership that would make it difficult to repudiate retire him. Supposing that to be true it would give point to the gbes about MT. Mac Donald suddenly appearing in the guise of an en- ragged rabbit It is quite possible however that his Scotch patience finally gave way and that he lreSOVeu IO ulJer WHdI ne believed to De Ifle no matter what its political consequences at home might be.
 Say what one will in praise of long suffering diplomacy, it is sometimes necessary to paint things in their true coors Prime Minister Macdonald did this when he declared that Hitler had been and still is the greatest obstacle to settled peace in Europe. The Germany Foreign Office may fall into Ia fury about this, and even in Great Britain MT Macdonald may be accused of having spoken hastily and imprudently But the real question is whether lhe did not correctly state the facts Most other statesmen having directly to do with the tense situation in Europe, and with the difficulties great fly increased by the action of Germany will agree that he did. Hitler may not like it. but, as with many other disagreeable things said of him and happening to him, he will have to put up with it.

TIME TO COOPERATE.

Alarm is sounded in quarters to the extent to which relief is being carried in the hope of putting through the readjustment program There are those who feel that there is danger in too much relief in that it will breed an inferior people, and there may be truth in the thought If it carried indefinitely.
 The of social disintegration is ever present in the human race if living becomes too easy or soft to term it, But the crux of the relief problem does not rest in the giving of relief rather 1t depends cooperation in getting away from relief and that cooperation must come from those who in position to help industrial leaders who can, if they will, do a real service for their country.
 Some of these men, who the nation has cause to look to for patriotic service have been spending much of their time of late bewailing the present

setup and pointing to what they term its pitfalls They many shortcomings but not in one ln- stance, unless it is of political nature have they offered one constructive idea on how they could improve conditions The natural conclusion then is that they are obsructonists and not construction ists
 The simple way to get away from the relief problem is to step industry up and cooperate with the national scheme by putting to work. The demand for produce s just as great as 1t ever was and put some money in the pocket of those who buy it and there will be searching for market. They cry that we are headed for socialism and that we all will be the Government payroll before long If that condition to pass the fault will lie with those very people who failed their nation in a time of need; who covered and ran ike rabbits in time of stress instead of giving full cooperation to a really constructive program. In he next year the Government is pouring four billion dollars into the business blood stream of he nation and if private business will give it's wholehearted support there won't be any question lf relief Those on the rolls will have been absorbed back into private jobs.
