when, on Memorial Day. February n,
1887, he asserted:
1T is up to us to be good soldiers and
good Nazis. Let there be no mistake:
There is no choice of one or the other.
The new army is the standard bearer
OF Nazi PHILOSOPHERS. and is indis-
solubly bound up with the Nazi party"
Seek u Keep Army Apart.
This statement has been much
criticized by ranking officers, who saw
it as complete breach with their pres
ent position Of keeping the military
and politics something distinctly apart.
Even should Col. Gen. Hermann
Goering, air minister and Nazidom's
No. 2 man, succeed Won Blomberg, It
Is expected he will remember his SOL
diers' career and discreetly refrain
from trying to identify the army too
much with Naziism.
Some officers would welcome Reichs-
fuehrer Hitler taking over the war
minister's portfolio, at least tenn
porarily. Then. according to the in
ternal subdivision Of powers, Gen. Will
helm Adam, president of the Defense
Science Academy. would be in charge
OF most details of administration.
Adam and his faculty Of Is virtu-
ally constitute a supreme military
defense council, just as Goering with
his recently-created economic defense
council constitute a supreme board
in administering the four-year plan
for economic elf-sufficiency.
Goering Favors Single Head.
Against this, Goering is said to
argue the two bodies belong under
one head, and he has been mentioned
as a likely candidate for Won Blom-
bergs job.
Whatever course Hitler finally may
pursue, Goering's friends say he is
fighting like lion" to emerge from
the struggle as the man who holds
both military and economic power in
his hands.
The German public generally was
unaware of the Won Blomberg crisis,
with radio and newspapers devoid of
reference to the cabinet change caused
by q woman.
The marshal was honeymooning in
Capri, and there was not yet formal
announcement that he had quit. It is
expected, however, possibly next week.

HUNGARIAN BANK
SUES FOR $4,000
Seeks to Recover Funds
Seized During the
World War.

The trustee for the holders of about |
$20,000,0 900 worth Of mortgage bonds
of the Austro- Hungarian Bank, which |
was the bank OF issue of the old
Austro- Hungarian Empire, filed suit
in District Court today to obtain some
100000 Of the banks funds seized
during the World War and now on de-
posit in the United States Treasury.
Through Attorney Dean Hill STAN
ley Of Washington, Viktor Stecher Of
Vienna, whose appointment as trus-
tee has been confirmed by the Su-
preme Court of Austria, asked that
Attorney General Cummings, who is
the successor to the alien property
custodian, and Treasurer Of the United
States William A. Julian be ordered
to turn the money over to him.
Would Bar Payment.
He requested, in the alternative,
that the court enjoin the two Gov
ernment ofiicials from paying the
money to certain persons who claim
authority from the now-terminated
Reparations Commission as liquida-
tors Of the bank. The Austro-Hun-
garian Bank was ordered liquidated
by the Treaty Of st. German. signed
September 10. 1919, by Austria and
the allied and associated powers, and
liquidators were appointed by the
Reparations Commissions, 1t was
stated.
These Hquidators refused to pay

value Of which aggregated 100000
600 gold kronen, out Of the assets
Of the banks mortgage credit divi-
sion," as required by law Of the old
empire, the trustee asserted, but used
all OF the banks assets to pay general
creditors.
Petitioned for Trustee.
In July. 1924, the liquidators con-
cluded their work and on May II,
1880, the Preparations Commission,
which appointed them, ceased to exist,
the trustee stated.
Whereupon. some of the mortgage
bondholders petitioned the Civil Court
OF Vienna for the appointment of a
trustee to represent them and Stecher
was named. the petition recited.
The majority OF the bondholders,
1t was said, are citizens OF Svitzer-
land, Poland, Hungary. Rumania.

SHOULD BE TOLD
TO HITLER

(Santa Barbara News-PresS)
Just 10 years ago great man said:
Our fathers brought forth on this
continent new nation conceived in lib
erty and dedicated to the proposition
that all men are created equal . . and,
we here highly resolve that this
nation. under God, shall have new birth
of freedom-and that government of the
people, by the people, for the people,
shall not perish from the earth"
We recommend these thoughts to
man named Hitler. He calls himself der
fuehrer." He sets himself up as a divin-
ity. He declares all men are not Great
ed equal-that the AryanS are the super
ior people; that other races are scum
"and must crawl on their bellies" As
to government of the people, by the peo-
pie and Cor the people, he declares, sit
shall perish from the earth
The great man was Abraham Lincoln.
He will live proudly in the hearts of all
Americans forever. Foreign nations
erected statues to him. not because he
was an American, but for his great hu-
manitarianism, his reverence, his hum
bleness.
No statues outside Germany or Italy
will be erected to Hitler, and those with
in those countries will be torn down
when saneness returns and later genera
tions judge him. His name. instead of
living proudly forever, will become syn
onymous for acts of terror and hate.
The comparison between the two is SO
odiouS we had to mention it as another
point in stressing Lincolns greatness
and ideals His guiding spirit was one of
compassion, of temperance and eqality.
To him the Negro, the Jew and all others
were children of God, deserving equal
birth and equal rights as men.
AS the entire nation pauses to COM
memorate his immortal speech delivered
November 10. 1868, at Gettysburg, it also
remembers the man who led and ruled
his people through love and tenderness,
not by fear and hysteria.

TIME TO BRING THE
BRIDGES CASE TO LIGHT

Thus far there has been no reply from
Madame Frances Perkins, secretary of
the interior and chief of the L. S. bureau
OF immigration, to demands by Stephen
Chadwick, American Legion national
commander, for an immediate hearing
of deportation proceedings against Har-
ry Bridges, Australian-born chief of CI0
maritime unions on the Pacific coast.
1t is extremely regretable that the will
of one woman, cabinet member though
she be, who is rapidly losing face with
the American public, should be allowed
to stand in the way of an attempt to
bring about Justice under the framework
of American laws 1t is unfortunate that
her will should be pitted against the de-
sires of Americas World War veterans,
represented by the American Legion.
1t is time this Bridges matter is settled
The American Legion, as represented
by its national commander, does not de-
mand Bridges deportation. 1t demands
merely that public hearing be held on
the five-year-old charges against him.
Surely nothing could be more truly Amer
ican.
If Madame Perkins actually wishes to
see justice done, she will order an i'm
such a hearing, it is plain to see where
her sympathies lie-and it is plain, too,
that she has an insufficient regard for
the rules of justice laid down in the
American constitution.
Unless Madame Perkins orders this
hearing, we can take no other view than
that she is afraid of what it will bring
forth.
The latest excuse upon which the sec
retary has condOned postponement of the
Bridges case is a flimsy one, intended
evidently to dull the protests of those
persons who do Tot look deeply into the
cases in question.
Because federal court in New Orleans
ruled that membership in the Communist
party is not a depOrtable OffenSe, she
contends that Bridges cannot be depOrted
She ignores the fact that Communist
party membership as such, is not the
charge against Bridges
If Communist party membership alone
were a deportable offense, a great num-
Der of California citizens would be fac
ing deportation. But it is not. The Com
munist party is officially recognized in
this state. 1t was on ne last state ballot
Certainly membership in the party is not
a legal offense of any kind.
But an expressed determination to
overthrow the American system of gov
ernment, together with acts intending
to carry out that determination, form
deportable crime in any state in the un-
ion - and that is the charge against
Bridges.
We should like to see the American
Legion press its demand to the fullest
possible extent in this matter Light
should be thrown on this sorry mess.

N.-1Om Dewey Will
continue to be a Republican presi-
Dental possibility, despite his de-
feat by Gov. Herbert Lehman.
Only a few votes-less than TO-
600 among nearly 5000, ,000-haVe
kept Dewey from becoming al
most sure-shot for the 1910
nomination and reduced him to
the ranks on more or less even
basis with other G.. o. P. hOpefulS,
The group now includes two other
New Workers. Mayor LaGuardia,
who already seems to be flirting
with the third party idea, and
Bruce Barton. Their names would
have been erased from the board
had Dewey become governor.
AS New York's district attor-
ney, crusading against racketeer-
ing and political corruption,
Dewey can continue TO build
up both his position as the party's
"glamor boy" and his national
prestige as a public official who
gave Roosevelt. Farley and New
Dealers the scare of their lives
You can expect him to declare
himself frequently on public is
sues other than crime.
Such, at least, is the view OF
liberals prominent in the New
York G.. 0. p. organization, who
supported Dewey in his effort to
sever ties with the "old gang and
"remake" the party. Significantly
or not, neither Herbert Hoover
nor National Chairman John Ham
milton became identified with the
Dewey campaign.

It's none too easy to fit LaGuar-
