One Who IL Not Naive

Only naive readers will pay
attention to your slap-dash edi-
torial "Franco-G German Peace
Pact" in which you boast Of the
German invincibility during the
World War, that the German
army was not defeated in the
field by the allied armies. Ameri-
can veterans who fought over
seas can only consider such an
editorial as a slur Of perverted
Imagination befitting the "An-
griff."
In true American tradition
when the German army sur
rendered their arms in an "un-
conditional surrend der to
Marshal Foch'S terms.
AS one who has served with
the AEF and participated in
chasing those Heinies back to
the Rhine, I cannot help but re-
sent your editorial as a diStor-
ton full of inaccuracies, in spite
of your patriotic note to build
adequate battleships for defense,
and national security.
If the victors of the World
War lost the war and the van
quished are today the real vic
tors, the fault lies with the
mediocre diplomats who have
abdicated under a slogan Of ZAP
peasement" before humanity

at the window of the turret
