It must be pointed out here that
should the Daladier government
fail-as 1t may-and be replaced bv
one of the extreme left, including the
Communists, the picture might pos
sibly change. Such a government
would lean more strongly to Russia.
Will Consolidate Gains.
Apart from the Ukraine, Fuehrer
Hitler will continue to consolidate his
new trade and political gains in the
Balkans, and reach further toward
the Baghdad and India of former
Kaiser Wilhelm's dreams. Britain
highly disturbed by this creation of
new economic empire, has an
nounced in fighting tones that John
Bull will contest vigorously Hitler,s
effort to maintain near EXCLUSIVELY
in trade in the Balkans.
The British-German trade war-if
any-in that area will be interesting
to watch. However, you can take It
from the Delphian oracle, or from
the writer who has made an exhaus-
tive f1rst-hand study of the situation
that England's chances of success
are about equal to those OF my small
son to find the pot of gold which he
has been told is at the end of the
rainbow.
Herr Hitler has that whole ter
ritory as neatly trussed up as a.
plump chicken ready for the roast
ing spit Of Paris chef.
There Is no present indication
that the bloody Spanish civil war
is near its end. Even should the
Madrid government and the in
surgents agree to cease fighting, the
conflict will continue in other forms,
so bitter are the hatreds which
have been engendered and so di-
verse the interests involved. One
cannot see the end of the path of
thorns which poor Spain must con-
tinue to tread.
Japan to Pursue Conquest.
On the basis of the Oriental
proverb that he who rides a tiger
finds 1t difficult to dismount, japan
will pursue her conquest of China
The territory which the Nipponese
already have occupied constitutes a
vast and rich empire-if they can
hold it.
Can 100000 japanese ride 450,-
100000 Chinese? 1 don't know, and
the Delphian oracle is silent on
that point.

up so in the big European democ-
racies, France and England, that 1t
will be a miracle If both the present
cabinets survive the year. -
The French government, headed
by Edouard Daladier, the fighting
Premier, has a thin hold on life.
Daladier's majority in the Chamber
OF Deputies is moderate and as
ephemeral in appearance as q
cloudlet in a windy sky.
The Premier Is proceeding under
near-dtctatorial powers granted
temporarily by the chamber to
bridge the serious economic and
political situations, due largely to
the huge rearmament program.
Feeling that only drastic measures
would pull the country through the
crisis, the cabinet not long ago
promulgated DEGREES, providing
among other things more taxation
and longer hours of work tempo
rarily for labor where employers
feel it essential and pay for it.
Labor Fearful of Losses.
These DEGREES caused much heart
burning in all classes, especially la
Dor. The workers were fearful of
losing the 40-hour week and other
boons won during the past two years
under the so-called popular Front
Cor Left government. This situa-
ton precipitated the abortive gen.
eral strike which Daladier smashed.
Early this month a reluctant
Chamber of Deputies gave the pre-
mier a slim vote of confidence and
told him. to 60 ahead. This saw a
complete change in the political
lineup, however. He was deserted
by the left wing parties (the lex
tremistsD and won considerable sup
port from what for want of more
explicit definition one has to call
the conservatives"
The upshot of the thing is that
the premier is hanging on by his
teeth and may be forced to resign
at any time.
In Britain there is very consid-
cradle dissatisfaction both in Par
lament and among the public with
Prime Minister Chamberlain's pol
icy of appeasement towards the die
tators. There is growing feeling
that there isn't much use trying to
bargain with Rome and Berlin.
Even the premiers own conservative
party. to which he owes his control
of the House Of Commons, is split
on this issue.
Condemnation In Britain.
In particular the vivisection of
Czecho-Slovakia under the Nazi
knife, with the unwilling acquies-
cence of France and Britain, has
brought condemnation from a good
many English folk. Even those who
wish to avoid war at almost any
price couldn't stand the sight of the
sacrifice of the little republic on the
altar of peace.
Should the opposition continue &C
