DOMESTIC:
Var Talk

In 1917 it was public opinion that
forced the u. S. into war. In 1889,
as in 1914, public opinion wants no
truck with Europe's troubles. But
Americas memory of the war is
still so vivid that its citizenry's judg-
ment is more reasoned, less apt to
be colored by propaganda from
home or abroad. Even so, there is
no unanimity.
Representative of anti-war thought
was the unprecedented radio talk by
Col. Charles A. Lindbergh, whose
congressman father committed po-

major voice in administering the
Suez canal; she wants other assort-
ed and miscellaneous concessions
which the allies foolishly denied her
after the World war.
Choice. The four totalitarian ma
tons might decide to strike first and
talk peace later. Or they may poise
their threats and then sue. Which
ever course they take, Britain and
France are on the spot; never in
modern history have their empires
been so completely threatened.
Probably the better part of valor is
to fight and ignore totalitarian-
ism's peace offers. From expert
ence, Europe's democracies have
learned appeasement merely whets
the appetite and prolongs the tor
ture.
