The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-11-23

Behind the move is a growing far among Australians that be- cause of their leanings toward state socialism, the pro-Nazi clique controlling the Chamber lain government is prepared to sacrifice them to make a deal with Japan in China, just as the Czechs were sold down the river to woo Hitler's good will in cen- tral Europe.
 Several years ago the Australian labor government thumbed its nose at the demands of London money powers. With these powers now in the saddle in Downing Street, the Australians are afraid that the financial interest will toss Australia on the Japanese chopping block to save their hold ings in China.
 To circumvent such a trade the Australians are prepared to shift their external Orientati0n completely. Instead of facing toward the East and thinking in terms of the British empire, they would turn westward and become part of the American continent orbit.
 To effect this new alignment the Australians would establish a line of air and naval bases that would tie in with the defenses of Hawaii, the Panama Canal and South America.
 Should Australia, under the pressure of London policies, switch its orientation from the European to the American con- tinent, the change would have tremendous effect on Canada, whose bonds with the U. s. al- ready are far closer than those between the U. s. and Australia. Too Natural
 Because Cordell Hull behaved too naturally, a newsreel censored him.

 HulPs reply was unprededi- tated and natural. With Ten nessee simplicity, he cooked his head and said, "Sho' nuff?"
 The newsreel, feeling that the Secretary of State should be more dignified, deleted the scene and made Hull act it over.

 Wyoming COP Victory
 EDITORS NOTE-One of the Merry Co., Founders, continuing a survey of what the USA thinks of the New Deal, gives the following report from the Rocky Mountain States.)
 Cheyenne, Wolf Cordell Hull wants to find out what farmers think of his reciprocity treaties, he should come out to this highly individualistic State of Wyoming.
 Out here, where they still look upon fences as an intrusion up- on personal liberty, the New Deals grazing measures, crop regulation and trade treaties have been received with the same cor diality as the Brain Trusters in Wall Street.
 This was the chief reason for Wyoming's Democratic defeat on November 8. More than many states where there were facti0nal Democratic splits, Wyoming represented a clean cut victory for the Republican NR3rN rwss aRa rN-~~@~
