ANTI-H1TLER AND PRO-GERMAN

-cO1. ALTON of Nazi Germany by the powers
Il continues. Following the League Coulc-tS
raf,lke of German militariSm the chief powers
ore drafting an agreement for joint protection
of Austria's independence, and Prime Minister
Macdonald of Great Britain has issued
strong Indictment of Hitlers methods.
Macdonald writes in press article;
Germany has acted in such way as to
DESTROY the feeling of mutual confidence IN
Europe. 1t asks other nations to accept YER
hal nedge of pacific intention which 1t Itself
would not accept from its neighbors Other
nations can not be pacifled by such assurance
and can show ample justification for their
refusal"
The significance of this is that Macdonald
hitherto has been leader of the international
group most anxious to compromise with Hitler
That policy of treating Hitler gently had two
sources one was the idea that a turn-the-
other-cheek method would get farther than
threats and sanctions. The other source was
the traditional British policy of keeping clear
Of continental commitments, and of playing
France and Germany against each other 10
prevent the supremacy of either Although
Stanley Baldwin had declared for the London
government that the British defense line
henceforth was not the Dover Cliffs, but the
banks of the Rhine the MacDonald-Slmon
group continued to hold out a hand to Hitler.
From the latest Macdonald statement it
sppears that Hitler has aliented and lost the
governmental group among all the allied gov
ernments least hostile to him.
This Macdonald switch may result either
in good or evil, depending on the follow
through To the extent that it completes the
close cooperative arrangement among the
French. Italian. Russian. Little Entente and
British governments to counter Hitlers threat
to European peace this latest development Is
beneficial But if it weakens the minority
movement for just revision of the unfair YER
satues Treaty, it will multiply the forces max
ing for war.
Joint anti-Hitler policy abroad Will make
Hitler more powerful at home and German
inilitarism more potent, unless coupled with
the anti-Hitler foreign policy there is pro-
German foreign policy Until the powers
grant Germany treaty equality. including re-
ciprocal disarmament an embittered and
wronged German people will prepare and plot
a war Of liberation. This is the fundamental
fact which the Allies forgot in 1919 and con-
tinued TO forget until they recently discovered
the extent of Germany's secret rearmament.
Now that they have re-established vir-
tual military alliance against Hitler the Allies
are in danger of forgetting again that their
military supremacy alone will not prevent
desperate action by Germany.

PUERTO RICO ASPIRES

TOR long time American policy in regard
to the Philippines was hazy and indeci-
sive. The indecision has finally been brought
to an end with the decision to grant the
islanders their independence, and now it de-
velops that the inhabitants of another island
under the American flag want to see definite
policy formed for them too.
The Puerto Rican legislative majority is
sending a commission to Washington to ask
for statehood. Rafael Martinez Nadal, presi-
dent of the Senate, says that Puerto Rico
wants to know definitely whether it is ulti-
mately to become a state; if not, he says, the
islanders ieel that independence should be
their goal
The question is knotty one to decide, but
that the Puerto Ricans are entitled to a
definite answer is beyond argument.
Their present status is unsatisfactory.

SECRETARY OF NATURE

CPRING, when all nature wears one uni
~ versal grin" is proper time to think about
those who loot and lay waste natures bounty.
Happily in the business Of conserving nat
ural resources America now can point with
pride as well as view with alarm. In two
years President Roosevelt has earned the
brevet of Secretary of Nature. Although some
Of his Administrations conservation activity
can be dismissed as pious verbiage and blue
print reform, it has taken historic steps toward
salvaging the countrys remaining stores of
oil gas, timber, land and wild life.
Great treasures in oil and gas have been
saved through state laws and oil code regula-
tons But the toll of wastage still is appallz
ing. Interior Secretary Ickes says the daily

SOLDIERS ARE JUST BUNS"
TO NATION NOW.

BY r. Zander.
What difference does it make
what a few so-called drafted or
regular soldiers think of each other?
1t seems to me the attitude of
Congress regarding the bonus plain
~ shows what they think.
In 1917 and 1918, the soldiers were
the pride of the country. Nothing
was too good for them, but now re-
verse English is employed. With a
large portion unemployed and on
relief, myself included, I believe We
are now called the buns and eX-
tortionists of the country. If they
pay the bonus now, it will bank
rupt the Treasury, so Congress says.
Were we to be roped into new
war, within a week, two or three
times the bonus amount would be
appropriated pronto, without dire
results to the Treasury. So, you
so-called regular or drafted buddieS,
what do you think? Nobody seems
to give a damn for either group.
A fresh egg or a storage egg is
after all just an egg. Forget it all.

HO0O to Prevent War
BY W. H. Bremen.

BY W. H. Bremen.
In your editorials you keep get
ting nearer the thing to quiet war
talk. Put younger men and wom-
en- in office; that's the way to urge
for peace. These men who are
at all times boosting for war have
the least fear they will have to go
if it comes.
This way of trying to help mat
tiers by kicking to or about what
the old set is forever doing, is
too slow Leaders in such mat
tiers, and this takes in the press,
must see we need better men to do
better thinking in government
management. You seem to take
this view, yet fail to come out
plainly and say this country, with
all its great power, its great re-
sources and its able and educated
young men and young women,

that they deserve the praise and CO.
operation of all our citizens;
Be it resolved that a copy Of these
resolutions be spread upon the min
utes of this meeting and made a
part thereof and a copy sent to each
one, pledging our support to all laws
and especially to those laws to
safeguard the lives of our children.

must put in use its best minds and
get away from war, panics, fam
ines and other folly. for we all
want peace and plenty.
All this is in our grasp if we
would only cast aside old-style
politics. 1t does not make sense
to follow men who year after year
keep in this rut. We must shake
them out of it. Vote them out Of
office. But this can best be
done by helping the young men
and women to control, to offices,
to eadership-now.
If we get better government, we
must get it through better leader
ship in politics.
The press is built for the task
and should lead in demanding this
change. 1t is to the interest Of
all.

I wonder if your paper can ex-

still have to work at the amount
they are now paying? have three

your investigator a smile and tell
her how handsome she is, you do
not get all that is coming to you
unless you beg it and if We have to
be beggars, here is one who will
start as a burglar which my wife's
faith has kept me from for years.

to the state to hear the things that
have happened.
There are a number of concerns
operating in the state that could be
investigated with dispatch. I am
glad that the attorney general has

many other concerns will, if they are
honest, assist in the investigation. If

BUCKET SHOPS

I see by the newspapers that the
Securities Commission and the at

is fine, but it seems to me that it
is something that should have been
done a long time ago because Indi-

the situation.
It seems. to me that shyster stock

By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Some A. A. A. quarters indicated
today that efforts may be made to
increase hog production next year
while at the same time curtailing corn
acreage.
This word was given as corn-hog
farmers from "a States converged on
washington to discuss the 1896 ad-
justment program with A. A. A.
officials tomorrow.
Special significance has been at
tached to the meeting, both because
Of the present hog shortage and high
pork prices and because this will be
the first major food crop hearing to
be held under the recently enacted
A. A. A. amendments.
To Hear Farm Views
Technically, the hearing is to de-
termine whether there should be a
corn-hog program next year. The
Farm Administration will express its
views to the farmers and then receive
their opinions on the need for an
adjustment Of production next year.
The A. A. A. amendments pro-
vided that a hearing must be held
before an adjustment program car
be placed into effect by the Secre-
tary of Agriculture. Hearings were
held recently on proposed tobacco
and rye programs.
Heavy Corn Yield Seen.
Those Farm Administration officials
who indicated q reduction in corr
acreage and an increase in hog pro-
duction may be suggested for 1885,
