Pacifism of DemOcracies
Seen Aiding Hitler.
To the Editor of The Star:


One of the most confounding and sad
dening experiences that beset mankind
is that of the paradox in which a worthy
and sincere motive brings unforeseen
disastrous results. Such a paradox has
occurred in the startling dramatic move
ments of Hitler which have netted him
one of the most decisive victories with
out war" recorded in the annals of
history.
Underlying the recent moves of Hitler
has been one dominant limiting factor,
and that factor is the fear of English
power. (This statement is but restate-
ment Of the proverbial authority Of
'Mein Kampf" so often cited to explain
the operations of Hitler) Consequently,
1t follows that whatever Hitler has done,
has been planned to be within the mar
ginal boundary that he can approach
without provoking England into open
hostility. The spread of this margin has
been far greater than the entire world
believed possible prior to the actuality
that has occurred. One should say, all
the world except Hitler and his special
staff OF psychologists, who are devoted
to the sole function of keeping a con-
slant finger on the war psychology Of
Englands peoples.
The extent OF Hitlers operations has
been enhanced in proportion to the in
creasing reluctance of the English peo-
pie to resort to war. A contributing fac
tor to this pacifistic temperament has
been the campaign for peace effective
both in England and the United States.
1t follows that the parsons of paciism
have unintentionally contributed to what
is appropriately called "the rape Of
Czechoslovakia."

If man wants to find out who is
master in his own house, let him drop
some ashes on the new parlor rug.
The resultant earthquake should be
convincing enough to satisfy even
the most courageous of husbands.

WILL HEAR KICKS
NeW Age Group to
Aid COlOred, Only

Inauguration of a complaint
department" designed to care for
problems of colored government
workers, was announced to an au-
dience of negro Federal employees
yesterday, by Charles I. Stengle,
president of the American Fedora
ton of Government Employees, in
Odd Fellows Auditorium.
Stengle complained of organi-
cations which exploit colored
workers by promising to secure aid
they cannot obtain, and pointed
out the effective efforts of the
Age.
Godfrey Wickware. assistant
chief organizer, told the audience
that while it was not the policy
of the Age to develop separate
groups of white and colored work
ers, such a course sometimes Sc
cured the best results.

BANK BANDITS.
KIDNAP z, FLEE.
IN Gun BATTLE
Woman, 2 Men Shoot
! Way Out in Michigan

WHITE PIGEON. Mich, Nov.
% U.N.SO.-A Kansas bandit trio,
wanted for wholesale car thefts
and a South Dakota bank robbery,
today kidnapped a farmer and a
service station attendant and
eluded State police in a running
gun battle.
Thirtyeight State police were
modified to patrol a 250-square-
mile area in Southwestern Mich
agan in search Of the bandits.
One a Woman
State police said the three were
headed by Benny Dickson, alias
William Harrison, and included
his wife, Esther, and an unnamed
male companion.
Police said Dickson and his wife
shot their way from a police am
bush in Topeka Thanksgiving
DAY. Mrs. Elizabeth Musick, 10, of
Topeka, a companion, was arrested
and is held in Topeka now. Dick
son was wanted for highway rob-
berry and for felonious assault on
a Kansas State License Bureau en-
ploye.
Claude Mennis, "a, Vicksburg
gasoline station attendant, and
Henry NIFTY, Vicksburg farmer,
were kidnapped by the trio this
morning, police said.
Shots Stop Police Car
Sighted in Leonidas at 3:15 this
morning, the trio escaped after a
gun battle with police. The State
police car that pursued them was
forced to halt when bullets pune
tured two front tires. Bullets also
disabled the police car engine.
After the gun battle, the trio

Scene of Battle
drove to Vicksburg, where Dick
son awakened MenniS to service
the bandit car, stolen in Topeka
from an Iowa man.
Mennis apparently serviced the
car and then was kidnapped. The
trio drove to Mitty's farmhouse,
where the stolen car was aban-
doned and NIFTY forced to drive
his car to aid the bandits in their
flight.
Blood Stains In Car
Mitty's son told State police he
found bloodstains in the bandit
car, abandoned when his father
was forced to drive the bandits in
his car.
A general Midwest alarm was
spread for Dickson after the
Topeka gun battle. He was
sighted in Chillicothe, Mo-, but
dropped from sight after that.
This morning Michigan State
police sighted his car near Mott
vile on the highway leading from
Chicago. State police chased
Dickson at 80 miles an hour, but
were forced to drop the chase
when their patrol car was disabled.

d. Wearin. Wearin, a 100 per cent
New Dealer. who was endorsed by
Works Progress Administrator Har-
ry l. Hopkins.
Gillette offended administration
leaders by opposing President
Rooseyelts judiciary reorganization
bill. The president insisted that he
was not interfering in the Iowa pri-
mary and there is nothing of public
record to show that he, or any other
except Hopkins among New Deal
advisers, attempted TO influence
Iowa voters. On the other hand,
some Democrats. notably Sen. Bur
ton K. Wheeler, Mont, complained
that Hopkins embarrassment of
Wearin was part of a New Deal
campaign to defeat Gillette and
other holsters. ......#.
There was not much dissent to-
day from the conclusion that Hop
kins-acting alone or in concert
put the New Deal on the spot un-
necessarily in Iowa. But for his
endorsement of Wearin the farm
belt primary would have been just
another polling instead of some
thing of a political spectacle in
which the nation was interested.
That prompted the suggestion that
it would be better for the admins
tration, in most cases, to go into
state contests in a big way or not
at all.
