Czechs Put on Spot.
Britain and France together, in an

Czech government make every posi-

pens in state in which the majority
are not Nazis and not Germans, and
the papers over the week end report
that the Czech population is becoming
outraged and excited and is likely to
take matters into their own hands
Not as Britain Wishes 1t.
And the result of open clashes
between the Czech and German popu-
lations would certainly not contribute
to the conciliation and peace for
which the Chamberlain government
still hopes.
We certainly have a most fantastic
situation in the world when certain
powers are prepared to reject cate
gorically and suppress ruthlessly any
attempt to interfere in their internal
and domestic affairs, while at the
same time they make it a policy To
interfere in the internal and domestic
affairs of other nations.
The world simply cannot 60 on like
this. For the operation of this policy
will lead to civil strife inside all
countries, whether it leads to armed
conflicts between nations or not.
In desperate attempt to avoid the
risk Of an international war, the DEM
ocratic countries are taking upon
themselves the far greater risk of
internal revolution.
And this reminds me again that
many years ago a German writer, a
precursor OF the Nazis, in a book
called THE Third Reich" made the
prophecy: What we lost by the war
We will win by revolution" Other

 With few exceptions the House members close their offices and head for home, particularly in cleo ton years such as the present when the enemy is busily gnawing at election districts. House members seldom have more than two clerks and these have to return with their boss to the office over the First National Bank of PeebleS Corners from which the Representative will operate his campaign.
 A far larger number of senatorial offices are open during the summer because each senator may have four and sometimes more secretaries and clerks. So one may be left behind to answer the telephone and send the Senator the pipe he left in the
