WHAT is HIrLER's PROMISE WORTH?

And thus it is all too true, as Barnet Mover
wrote few days ago, that "in view of the record,
in view of the terrifying fears of a war launched
by the Fuehrer which took possession of so large
part of the world, it is doubtful if any RESPONSE
pie statesman will take Hitler wholly at his word
ms means that in Great Britain and France and
ELSEWHERE, the pace of rearmament will not be al
lowed to slacken on the contrary there is every
reason to believe it will be accelerated at least
until those nations are no longer in a position of
nterorlty vls-a-vis the Third Reich in any impor-
tant category of ornaments s".s
The world thus faces the continued prospect of
a race IN ornaments unless the new four-power
grouping can somehow manage to bring about a
real measure of appeasement and unless, at the
same time, German and Italian industry can be
detleeted from war production to production for
peace. The prospect for both is doubtful to say
the least"
And let's not overlook the fact that, to carry
out his latest promises, Hitler must renounce his
ambitions of conquest toward the east, through
Rumania to the Black Sea and into the Ukraine
as he wrote them several years ago in his book
"Mein Kampf." Thus far for years he has fol,
lowed the program outlined in that book. Why
expect him to stop now?-Ch&rotte Observer

A CONFLICT OF CLASSES

When William Green declares that the National
Labor Relations board is an ally of the CIO and
1--WE won't stand for that he is in character as
the spokesman of some three and a quarter million
craft workers in defiance Of the leadership and
the political allies of some four million other wage
earners. When Mr.. Green declares that in the
CIO an attempt is being made in the direction of
program of the agencies and forces behind the
Communist Internationale at Moscow for ''the con-
quest of the American continent" and the cstab-
lshment of "an absolutely arbitrary dictatorship"
he projects an issue which may very well be the
overshadowing issue in the next congress. Certain
", the present tendency continuing the differences
between these two groups of wage earners will
rank along with the conflict of view as to what is
to be done for the farmer and about his Difficult
ties 1t is going to be farmerabor congress- al
though not in the sense of harmony and unity that
the expression has come to convey
In the ranks of labor, this is conflict between
the highly talent, more highly paid class,
which long since learned the lessons of organiza-
ton, the benefits to be won by solidarity and a
larger group including great numbers of the lesser
paid, who are but beginners at these lessons,
It is much more than mere conflict of an old
idea, chat of organization by crafts, with young
idea, that of organization by industries and re-
gardless of graduations of skill and earning power
1t is conflict of classes, differing as greatly in
condition, in schemes of living, in outlook and i'm
mediate purposes, as in methods of approach to
the broader objective of organized labor-Greeus-

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
why HAS RELIEF COME TO STAY?

soon the New Deal will be six years old. After
6ve and one-half years of striving to bring about
Tho More Abundant Life in the United States, the
N, Deal is forced to recognize the fact that more
+bor twenty million individual Americans are de-
odant on public aid from federal, state, and local
sonrces After five and one-half years of adher-
once TO the philosophy of government-do-every-
+hire. & ZOO 600 famles-nore than one-fifth of
III tho families in the United States-receve some
,,bIic relief funds And the number is increasing.
IN santerber 3rd, the Works Progress Admin
;.+ro+;or had 3.0S5,000 workers on its payrols.
This IS the largest group at present receiving aid
from, nublic treasures. Another large group is
made IN of needy old persons needy blind, and
dorendent children A third group, also large, is
comnosed of families receiving direct relief. The
No+onaI Youth Administration and the Civilian
Conservation Corps add to the number of Ameri-
oans rybo are being supported. to some extent, by
tax money.
Naturally all this costs lot of money. In the
siro,. month Of July more than ons-fourth of a
billion dollars was paid out for public assistance.
TIE toto1 cost of this assistance for the first eight
r,or+bc of this wear amounted to two billion dol
1ars That is the financial burden borne for the
,.rions forms of relief by federal state and local
Governmental units Nor is it temporary burden.
Authorities agree that relief is here to stay; it has
become a permanent problem " ...
These are the facts. No effort will be made
here to determine whether or not such huge eX.
penditures are justified. However, IN connection
with tbese facts consideration we'll may be given
TO a sentiment expressed last week by American
DELEGATES TO the seventh international Management
Congress in Washington. At this meeting, group
of industrial Spokesman urged immediate cessation
of the warfare between private industry and the
federal government and called for cooperative
measures to end the current economic depression,
y In view of past experience, it may be taken for
granted that no particular attention will be paid
to this plea. 1t is the custom in governmental cir
Giles nowadays to blame business and business men
for all the real and imaginary evils besett1ng the
country The idea Of creating prosperity through
legislation rather than through hard work and the
productive investment Of capital, holds sway among
the New Dealers. The economic planners" appar-
emily so called because they know little of econom-
les and have no sound plan for restoring stable
conditions; won't listen to the voice of business.
Meanwhile, more than twenty million persons in
the United States receive aid from public funds,
Many of these twenty million would welcome the
chance to 60 to work at regular jobs. But the
policies followed by the New Dealers inevitably
have the effect of reducing the available number
of jobs in private industry. And the various types
of relief rolls keep growing and the cost keeps
mounting.-Texas Weekly.

BARRIERS BETWEEN STATES:
BARRIERS TO PROSPERITY
CBy BRUCE CATTON)

Gov. James V. Alfred of Texas spoke to
the point when he warned the, recent Ma
tional Conference of State Governors that
various state taxes are creating serious in
terState trade barriers.
The states, remarked Gov. Alfred, are
forbidden to erect tariff walls. Yet in
many cases they are doing what amounts
to the same thing by use of tax laws.
Some states levy sales taxes on materials
manufactured in other states Ports of en-
try at state boundaries have made their
appearance. And these, things, said the
governor, "are liable to promote economic
proyincialism if they increase at their pres
eht rate" ...~. e. 81 -. .-
The development of these restrictive
laws is easy to understand.
'One state wants to develop its home in
dustries. The products of neighbor-state
compete with these industries; perhaps the
neighbor enjoys certain economic adval-
tages which enable it to produce these
things more cheaply. So the first state
levies tax on goods from its neighbor. 1t
sets up highway patrols to check on goods
which are trucked in. In every way pos
sible, it tries to preserve its home market
fer its own producers.
iAll natural enough, certain1y-and log
iGal enough, too, up to a certain point.
yet this trend will inevitably lead to
economic disaster if it is not soon checked
I've have been proud of the lofty Amer
iGan standard of living" for many years
We have compared our lot with that of
Europe and have preened ourselves on the
better position which we enjoy. And we
have explained our advantage by pointing
to our nations vast natural resources, or
by expatiating on the energy, hustle, and
drive of American men, or by referring
mystically to "the American way"
But the plain fact is that we have been
more prosperous than Europe largely be-
cause we have not had Europe's intricate
network Of trade barriers to contend with.
Europe has great natural resources, too.
Her people come from the same stocks that
oars come from and must have equal nat
ufal gifts. Her technicians and engineers
do not need to take back seat for ours.
All that has been lacking has been that
great, untrammelled domestic market
which our producers enjoy.
We restrict our own market at our own
dire peril. These state trade barriers will
if carried far enough. have the effect OF
regular tariff walls.
And if we drape a network of tariff
walls across our great domestic market we
give American prosperity a blow. from
which it can hardly recover
