" HE announcement o. general
election lin Great Britain next
month has added a new and
Il unmistakably ominous compli-
cation to the already critical European
situation. There have been sugges-
tions that once the Tory government
won new lease of power by exploit
ing its currently popular anti-Italian
policy, it would then adopt less in
transigent attitude and agree to a
compromise permitting Mussoliui to
escape from his Ethiopian adventure
without loss of prestige. But the sug-
gestion discloSes wishful thinking
rather than actual optimism.
Every one who remembers the no
torious khaki election of 1918 must
tremble over the contemporary out
look. Seventeen years ago Lloyd
George and the Coalition government
set out on the morrow of the armistice
to capitalize victory. In the course of
the campaign which followed both the
prime minister and his associates were
driven by electoral circumstances to
adopt more and more uncompromis-
ing attitude toward Germany until
they were committed to the two
slogans - Hang the Kaiser" and
Squeeze Germany until the pips
squeak"
The fatal consequences of this de-
scent to extremism were soon disclosed
in the Paris peace conference. Thence
forth Lloyd George was steadily con-
fronted by his campaign pledges and
announcements whenever he under
took to agree to compromise which
alone could have made possible a
reasonable treaty of peace. He was
compelled, too, to take stand in the
matter of reparationS which was re-
sponsible for fixing the totals of Ger
man payments at fantastic figures.
The result was the complete wrecking
of the financial and economic system
of the Reich and the eventual triumph
of Hitler.
Revolution in Sentiment
Obviously the same danger of
enforced intransigence arises again.
Baldwin is going to the country now
because the line his government has
taken in the Ethiopian affair is mani
festly popular with all but the extreme
tories. Little noticed outside of Eng
land there has been taking place with
in the United Kingdom something like
a revolution in popular sentiment.
The most striking evidence of this
revolution is the recent resignation of
the leaders of the Labor party, Lans-
bury, Ponsonby and Cripps.
This resignation was due to the fact
that .he rank and file Of the Labor

guarantee Of peace-or rather main-
tenance of the status-quo. The Ethio-
plans alone would be the losers. In
the breathing spell" Great Britain
will have an opportunity to rebuild
her navy and air force and France
will have another opportunity to at
tempt to forge her ring Of steel"
around Nazi Germany.
But no matter from what angle
one looks at Europe, the future is
pregnant with danger and war
sooner or later-appears inevitable
unless there Is a redistribution of ter
ritory and economic opportunities
through peaceful means.

This revelation may surprise a
world citizenry who three years ago
were stunned to learn from Mr. Hoo

States land no loose phrase maker)
that the worlds annual arms bill al
ready topped s5.o0o,o00,O0o. It
emerges, nevertheless, as the high
light of the Summer war games held

subjoined oceans and skies, by the six
biggest powerS-the United States,
Britain. France, Germany. Italy and
Japan.
War stats have been telling their

Invention Brings New Power.
The marvels of the water, air and

ern invention, have brought into sight
On the horizon 60-mile- war

Of so miles an hour, platoons of a
dozen armored men with the fire.

death-ray machines and disabling-ray
machines, subterranean air bases as
big as Grand Central Station, poison
gas accepted as legitimate and exploit
ed to the full of its terrific and ter
rifying potential, robot storm troops
operated from a distance.
The whole tendency, the war stats
said, is away from the dull, heavy,
mass tactics of the Great War, and
whole nations modified for protracted
wars of attrition, and toward fast and
flashing wars of movement, in which
blows will be struck with crushing
force and lightning speed, and the
maximum use made of the surprise
element
And this, they said, is not wholly
due to the technical factor of weapon
development. You must remember
the effect in the last war of propa-
ganda, defeatism, war WEAKNESS, poll
tics-all the dangerous phenomena
resulting from long struggle, which
wears down nerve resistance. Men
will not again submit to the long
draWn-out agony of an indecisive and
clumsy war. You must organize for
efficiency, which means speed and hit
ting power, and you must prepare to
win, which means that you must be
up to date. Otherwise, even if you
win, you may lose the fruit of victory
through the war-wearineSs of the peo-
pie, the exhaustion of the treasury
Or an economic and political collapse.

sional campaign in the history
Of the United States Govern
ment has started-more than
13 months in advance of the elec-
ton date The Republicans are max
ing an unprecedented offensive along
all battle fronts for two reasons: First,
they realize it is now or never" for
them to recapture House seats from
the Democrats which will eventually
give the G. o. P. control sgain of
legislation. They feel that they have
hit rock bottom and can't sink any
further. Second. they have a real
confidence that they are going to win
back House seats in large numbers,
that the swing against the New Deal
is very definite and growing. and that
the tide and the wind and public dis
satisfaction is with them for 1886 as
it was against them in 1880, '32 and
"a.
So, the fight is going to be made
"all along the line"-even in the erst-
while "Solid South" which is not
now considered impregnable, and they
have hopes of picking up a few seats
therein Florida and North Carolina,
and there are rumblings, too, about
prospects in Georgia.
In many of the Sta tes, districts that
previously have been admittedly Dem
ocratic are to be given a new and
aggressive tryout In a number of
States the redistricting has given
grounds for doubt as to the political
complexion of certain districts, in
which party leaders are not sure-and
the plan is to make sure. No possible
chance is going to be passed up with
out a test. Also, there is new Sec
tional sentiment that means much in
