COERINC HURLS WILD WARNING
 IN BERLIN TALK
Attempts at Murder" Elm phasized by General Tn
 Sensational Address
ROOSEVELT ASKED BY
 GOEBBELS, INTERVENE
Woe to Him Who Dares Play With Fire Shout
 ed AgitatedP Police Head

BERLIN. Mar. 16.-General Her mann Goering, Germany's No. man. made a sensational unexplain- ed reference in radio speech here today to those who believe as a last resort to overcome Germany through murder and cowardly att tempts at murder"
 Tn some quarters the phrases were interpreted as startling intima- ton of possible attempts on the lives of leading personalities in the Nazi regime which had come to the governments attention.
 General Goering was epeaking at the commemoration of the second anniversary of Germany's regained arms equality.
 Tn his sensational statement, Goering said:
 Woe to him who dares play with fire. If this warning does not suf- flee there may be many, or all those of the same opinion who will be blazingly burned by this fire"
 This was interpreted to mean that the Nazi leaders were prepared to deal harshly with those who might be trying to overcome the regime.
 Page one demands that President Roosevelt intervene. energetically'' against the "Nazi insults" at New York mass meeting appeared in the first edition of Propaganda Minis. ter Goebbels' paper here today, but in later editions it was entirely de- leted. It appeared that official in- structions had been sent to ignore the second attack made by Mayor LaGuardia in New York against the Nazi set-up at meeting last night.

When roof leaked they didn't know
how to fix it. When a building be-
gan to go to pieces they couldn't
make the necessary repairs. So the
cities fell into ruin"
This explanation. while brilliant,
had obvious defects. For centuries the
Roman legions we're able to defend
the frontiers. Why did they finally
give way and allow the barbarians,
with their waves of ignorance, to take
possession?
Evidently the fundamental trouble
was inside the empire. The disin-
tegration came from within.
This brings us to our original oues-
tions concerning the new deals in
Rome. We shall find they were at
tempts to solve the same sort of prob
lens that confront the world today.
They were imposed by the same sort
of social pressure with which we are
familiar.
A word of caution is necessary. Other
factors besides the economic were in
volved In the history of Rome. There
were foreign wars, problems of en-
pire, constitutional struggles, factional
fights, personal ambitions. All these
entered into the historical develop
ment.
Back-to-the-Land Movement.
But from the back-to-the- Land
movement of Tiberius Gracious. and
the P. w. A. and ever-normal granary
of his brother Gaius in the second
century before Christ, down to the
price-fixing. wage-regulating N. R. A.
of Diocletian 400 years later. We find
an important clue to Roman history in
the struggle between the HAYES and
the Havenots.
The Roman new deal experiments
were symptoms Of the progress of that
struggle. Because those experiments
in the long run failed, and because the
people proved incapable of working
out social and economic system that
would provide a decent standard of
living for the masses, their civilization
disappeared.
1t went down in what Prof. Breasted
has called 'the tempest of anarchy"
OF the third century. Then when the
empire was called upon to defend
itself from the enemy without, Roman
society had lost its nerve. In the
words of another great authority, Prof.
Michael Rostovtzeff of Yale, "The rich
could not be aroused from their in
difference; and the poor were filled
with hatred and envy" In their mis-
cry the empire did not seem worth de-
Tending. So the barbarians were able
to break through and destroy what
was left with fire and sword.
Two Events Upset World.
The struggle in Rome that was
finally to end in catastrophe began
fairly early after the city had become
| dominant in Italy. Two events upset
the ancient world. Curiously, they
were the same sort of events that have
upset the world of today.
A devastating war was the real be-
ginning of the social warfare that
ruined Rome. The difficulties were
made acute at the time by the recent
| introduction of coined money which
brought problems that nobody knew
how to handle.
In. the modern age it was the World
War that started the train of events
