1895, that it did intend TO exert an
influence on citizens OF this country,
the United States protested to the
point Of threatening to break OH
diplomatic relations.
On the same day that your speech
was reported $4,000 Of your followers
held q rally on Long Island. There
they heard the Nazi government OF
Germany praised. They were allegedly
American citizens Of German extrac-
ton, but they uttered no word Of
praise for American institutions. They
announced that they were modified
to fight the c. I. o. and save us from
bolshevism.
u. S. Also = Rescuer.
We are pretty good at this saving
business ourselves. Once, in 1848, We
saved thousands of your most valuable
ing our doors to them. We have not
yet observed that any one Is fleeing
to your country for refuge
Since 1888 we have given haven to
some Of your most distinguished
people. And whether they came to
this country as refugees from political
oppression, or for other reasons, Ger
mans have helped to settle this country
and have been among its most de-
sirable citizens. No one forgets the
place Of his birth, even II he was
driven from it. But as citizens of this
state, they have given unquestioned
allegiance to it.
And, in 1917, when we were, un-
happily, at war with your country,
thousands of men of German blood
shed it for the United States of
America. But in the future we are to
presume no such loyalty. For you are
saying, in effect, that one drop of
German blood cannot be washed out
by thousand oaths Of allegiance. :.
Apparently it has not occurred to
you, Mr. Minister, that We may not
want to be saved for Nazism. In our
crazy American way, We prefer order
and freedom as we conceive it, to
what you conceive it to be. We pre-
fer trial by jury to trial by bludgeon
We prefer free speech to a prostitute
press. We prefer free universities, free
science and free art, to education,
science and art dictated by a political
party.
And we don't regard our President
as weakling because he didn't pull
Mr.. Hoover out of bed in the middle
of the night and blow his brains out
as Mr.. Hitler did with his political
opponent, Ernst Poehm.
We know that your great interna-
tional propaganda cry is that you want
to save the world from communism
But we see very little difference
between your system and Russian
bolshevism.
We observe that Japan, your ally, is
saving China in bath Of Chinese
blood. We saw your friend, Mussolini,
save Ethiopia little while ago. And
you are both busy saving Spain now.
From such saviors may We be saved!

This writer wouldn't swear to Just that

Levine around as If he felt that he had
that much. Maybe he did.
He was stable boy in BROOKLYN.
Progressing from a junkman to "a

and salvage" he INDUCED a passion
for fancy sports clothes and other such
attention getters, and as the dervish
dance of the boom days warmed up he
declared himself in a big way.
Chauffuered overseas by Clarence
Chamberlin, he being the first trans
Atlantic passenger, he landed In Ger

suits. Nothing short of Sancho Panza
flying mindmill could have stolen
the headlines from his impromptu solo
flight from Paris to London-without
plotting experience. He almost tore
the roof off the Croydon hangar, with
a flock of British planes taking the
air to guide him, but somehow he got
down with whole skin.
Mabel (Mibsi) Boil, the bartender's
beautiful daughter, of Buffalo, had
caught the eye Of the ship news men,

wanted to fly home with him. That

the spirit of hate and class warfare
and from no position of vantage can
words Of tolerance and restraint be
uttered more effectively to heal the
wounds of class dissension than from
the high Office of President and from
the Government generally. The voice
of the British statesmen who have the
vision to write Of the need for divine
guidance is matched here by men and
women in all walks of life who feel
the same urge to spread the doctrine
of human cooperation and mutual
help but in America, as in England,
leadership comes from those in au-
thority and it is to them the populace
turns hopefully now as always for ini-

Of us have always held that this was
your intention. You are for an open
conspiracy, openly arrived at. Now
We understand each other.
Another of your spokesmen Of Stutt-

NaZi Foreign Organization, helped to
clarity things for us. He said. Who
ever lives abroad as German busi-
ness man, is working not only for him.

the German fatherland
We wonder If you, trained diplo-
mat of long service, have forgotten
what you once must have known, that
the admission of any foreigner to this
country is not matter Of right, upon
which the foreigner can insist, but of
comfy and hospitality. 1t is assumed
that guest in ones house will not
spit on the floor, break the furniture,
or insult other guests. Yet you are
instructing German guests in our
house to mock our institutions, to
pervert them wherever possible, to
spread hostility against organized
workers, and finally to divide our
own house against itself.
What Of Reciprocity?
The American conception OF civil
| liberties, our protection Of free speech,
| alone makes the toleration Of such

| activities promoted by a foreign gov

ground, therefore, do you appeal to
us for liberation? On the ground of
reciprocity?
DO you remember, Mr.. Minister,
that in 1888, when We extended formal
recognition to Soviet Russia, We did
so only on condition that Russia would
conduct no propaganda activities
here. And when it appeared from the
Meeting Of the Comintern in August,

Rosa Ponselle beloved dramatic

CAPACITY audience yesterday after.
noon at Constitution Hall. Her
voice was in excellent condition
and her radiant personality made
a setting for a highly enjoyed re-
citsl.
Miss Ponselle opened her pro-
gram with two arias, "Addio del
PasSato," from La Traviata"
(VerdD. and "Chanson Boheme"
from Carmen" (Bizet), both of
which furnished ample opportunity
for displaying her powers Of dra-
matte delineation.
MASTERY TONES

songs, the facile elasticity of
her voice in "Quel Ruscelletto"

Sehnsucht Kenrt" (Tschaikow-

"Vergebliches Standchen, in
lighter vein, unfolded to the
audience other facets Of her art.
Her high sustained tones in
the aria "Adieu, Forets," from
"Jeanne dare" (Tschaikowsky) +,
were delivered with clarity Of tone
and fine control without any
tendency to waver. Following the
several groups Of operate arias
and songs in foreign languages,
Miss Ponselle further RECALLED her
audience with a group in English,
including MY Lovely Celia" (Hig-
gins), THE Soldiers Bird e"
(RachmaninofD. and "F airy
Pipers" (Brewer).
DICTION EXCELLENT
While her diction was excellent
In the previous groups, it was
especially noted when she sang
in the language more familiar to
the audience. The recital ended
with four encores, including
"Carry Me Back to Old Virginia"
and a charming Neapolitan song,
for which she played her own &C
compartment. Her final exit was
made only after q number Of bows
with thunderous applause filling
the hall.
MI. Stuart Ross gave a sympa-
thetic and ample support at the
piano and played two groups Of
piano solos between Miss Pom

played the &C Minor Fugue"
