Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain
and his home secretary, Sir Samue
Hoare, charging them with being
hypocrites and-anti-Semites.
The occasion for today's attack is
the publication of a similar attack
on the two British statesmen by the
Polish periodical Wieczor Warsaw.

Chamberlain and Hoare the two
greatest anti-Semites in the world
after Reichsfuehrer Hitler. because
they are failing to find places In

to get rid of.

the Wieczor Warsawski is not at all

They would be able to place space

Jews. They make no use of this
however. but content themselves,
rather, with suggestions which are
not even taken seriously in England

outlets for anti-Semitic tendencies

point and were vastly pleased.
Today's attack seems to be thu
first one since Munich, however, ir
which Chamberlain and Hoare are
actually named.
The Nazi's anti-Semitism has very
concrete aims. It is by no means
form of madness without method
And it is significant that the os-
tensible occasion for today's attack
is an article in the Polish press.
Others Will Follow Lead.
For the Nazis have set out tt
force the rest of the world to take
care of the German Jews-at the
expense of the rest of the world as
well as that of the Jews-and othe,
anti-Semitic countries like POLAND
are watching the Nazi campaign
with intense interest.
If the Nazis succeed in taking
everything or virtually everything
away from the German Jews, and
dumping the Jews themselves or
the rest of the world to provide
for, then the Poles and probably
at least a half a dozen other coun.
tries in Central and Eastern Europe
will try the same thing.
The world has seen thus far only
the barest beginnings Of the anti.
Semitism which will probably sweer
Europe-and not only Europe-ir
the near future.
One of the chief weapons in the
Nazis' armory in this campaign i.
brutality. They think that If they
treat the Jews brutally enough the
rest of the world. in sheer mora
horror and desperation, will rescue
the Jews. The Nazis will, of course
keep all the Jews property. Anc
if the Nazis succeed by the use o1
these methods, the Poles and other.
may confidently be expected to re.
sort to them, too.
