ECONOMIC BOYCOTTS
ARE FAIR WEAPONS
By ]. .. ZONES

The Congress appears to be in en-
tire agreement with the President in
the policies Of arming TO the teeth
and hoping that 1t will not be nee
essary to fire gun or drop bomb.
This may be a very noble attitude,
despite the costs. Meantime, Uncle
Sam carries plenty of chips on his
shoulder, as warnings are issued to
crazy .dictators not 10 try to knock
any OF them off.
The more cool-headed national Of
ficiaIs have been favorably Impress
ed with the Administration measure
that imposed additional 25 per cent
tariff penalties on Germany.
The wierd Hitler Government has
pulled its pack of trick-cards in bar

preserves. and we are warranted, on

with economic punishment sand eco
