And dent let yourself get messed
up with any compunctions about con-
science, or anything like that. This
thing of killing Communism is inter-

on out of here, there is no ethical

as it had been shown in Spain. 1t has
long been demonstrated in Germany,

ago at Moscow as a sine qua non

You need not even be logical. Yes,

EVEN THE u. S. HAS IT'S
TROUBLES

In Europe the sword of Damocles
hangs over the neck of Poland. Le-
bens- s-Raum-"room to live in"--is the
battle cry of Hitler And he is a
bachelor. A year ago, England was
dreading the overnight howl of the
sirens, warning of the NaZi bombers
Now, she is coolly calculating on the
chances of her food-ships escaping
the stabs of Nazi submarines.
Frances Maginot Line of fortifca-
tions is paralleled by the German
Siegfried battlements. Italy is prac-
ticing her defences against a French
approach over the Alps. Spanish
Franco halls the new Nazi- Commu-
mist pact as another cornerstone in
the encircling wall about the democ-
racies.
European neighbors glare at each
other across rivers and mountain
chains. They are calculating how to
regain sections of their respective
backyards, taken from them by the
Versailles treaty. Whose chickens
may be in those backyards now, is
another question.
And America is not free from the
war-mania. A new secession move
ment is on. New England has been
attacked at her most vital point; and
that is the spot at which the turkey
gets the axe.
An invasion of state rights, and
gubernatorial perogatives has crept
stealthily from the Pennsylvania Ave-
nue. White House. President Roose-
velt has presumed to misplace the
Pilgrim accent on peoples gratitude.
From Texas to Maine the rebellion
/ is on. Descendants of Pilgrim Fa-
theirs in the Far West, and of Pilgrim
Mothers in the Deep South, are re-
senting this interference with the
right to life, liberty, and the pursuit
of plum pudding on that sacred day,
the last Thursday in November.
Truly, it is a year of Mars, the
planet of war; and confusion is reign
ing all around the world.

Conferees appointed in House and

bills. Conferees do not meet. Whosis
starts gallumping again. In dead

Speaker of House, President of Sen

make wry faces. Congestion of busi-

COMMENT ON WORLD EVENTS

the specific "stiffening" content of
their collective backbones.
The psychological effects, interna-
tional and individual, of the Moscow
Berlin announcements cannot be dis
counted. A fair measure of the emo
tional upheavals that have followed
would throw the advantages to Hit
Ter. Hitler put one over on the de-
mocracies. Just what effect this will
have on the final decision of peace or
war is uncertain. The effect, favor
able effect, upon the German people
and all looking to the Rome Berlin
axis for support cannot be denied nor
discredited. Among the democracies
the emotional effect has been discon-
certing and damaging. Plans of
world security and ultimate peace
have been scattered by one blow of
the unexpected. Too much emphasis
has been placed upon the logical Sc
quences of reason and justice with
out enough consideration of the emo
tional consequences of hitch in
those plans.
Emotions must be highlighted in
the present war of threats and in
ternational bulldogging. The pro-
gram of the Nazis has not been noted
for kind attention to reason or justice
Rather the. opposite. Brutality and
ruthlessness have been the watch
words of the advance of the crooked
cross.
A direct quotation from Hitler's
Mein Kampf can give more COM
plete picture of the germ that is in
Testing Europe, today, than reams of
news stories and commentaries.
"The masses can only be captured
by a ruthless and fanatic one-sided
presentation of our nationalistic idea
| The dynamic force which has made
the most important changes in his
tory has always been-no scientific
intellect-but rather a fanatic feeling
of hysteria which has hurled the
masses in one direction. To win the
soul of the people, it is not enough
merely to fight for ones own end
ONE MUST DESTROY THE UP
HOLDERS OF THE OPPOSITE
| CAUSE"

The cooler heads sum up the events
of the past week more pointedly
along the lines of sanity. They re-
mind: "For Russia, treaty is a mat
ter of immediate expediency. For
Hitler, treaty is figure of speech. y
They give the peace-front alliance, in
cluding Russia, chance for compile
ton, not forgetting that this alliance
will fall into the category of "a figure
of speech" until tried and tested in
practice. The scene has not been ma
terially altered by the news from Ger
many and Russia. Hitler will con-
tinue his bloodless conquest of Po-
land. Poland will fight for her right
to live. And the democracies will
hold the balance for peace or war
until the glitter knife" determines
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1939-09-01

The nations newspapers headlined
Hitler's latest diplomatic bombshell,
the Russo-German trade agreement
and the proposed non-aggression pact.
If the news was not literally bomb
shell, the general effects followed
closely the description of the first 80
seconds after direct hit. Nations
were stunned. Diplomatic applicants
were scattered all over the place,
their tempting displays resting not so
appealingly in the cutters of Europe,
Asia and a few other continents.
Pro-Russian and Communist forces
heralded the negotiations as sure
sign of peace. England and France
were tartly told that since they had
bungled the works Comrade Stain
would take over and put the democra-
cies to shame. A uniformed Germany
is informed that the Fuehrer, with
his little pen, has retired the Russian
bear to the showers. No word is men
toned of Hitler's former warning to
the German people that any alliance
with Russia would spell the doom of
Germany.
France and England would like to
forget the whole thing as something
that has never happened, just another
bad dream. Chamberlain is troubled
with the thought that the sins of a
mad March have returned to plague
him.

Good Story
Is Told by
Don Barnes

ST. LOUIS, May 23.-Donald
Barnes, the ST. Louis businessman
who is taking fling at being
major-leauge baseball team presi-
dent, tell a good story about Sig
Gryska and Buck 'Newsom, two of
his favorites on the ST. Louis Browns.
Last year Barnes offered Newsom,
the eccentric pitcher, a $1,000 bonus
if he won 20 games. On the last
day of the season, Newsom held 10
victories and was scheduled to pitch
the first game of double header
with the Chicago White Sox.
Buck came to me with tears in
his eyes, and asked me to give him
that bonus, anyway. I told him to
go out there and win the game first.
"He was leading, 81, along the
middle of the game, when Gryska,
the shortstop, booted one that cost
us two runs.
"Newsom gave the youngster hell
and glared over at my box /
Wouldn't look at MN. what was
interested in was Gryska. 1t was
enough to break the nerve of just
about any kid. Sig knew what that
game meant to Newsom, and he was
trying to win major-league berth
for himself.
"Gryska showed me what kind of
stuff he had in him in the eighth
inning We were trailing by one
tally when he came to bat with a
man on, smacked out a triple, and
then scored himself on a fly. That
gave the game to Buck, and cheer
fully gave him the thousand. 1t was
worth that to see Gryska come
through"

German press during the days i'm
mediately preceding the annexation
Of Austria. the Sudetenland and
Memel, and the establishment of
protectorate over Bohemia and Mo-
ravia, Nazi newspapers are hurting
broadsides at Poland.
Propaganda Minister Paul Joseph
Goebbels' Der Angriff declared yes
terday '780 acts of terror" were
committed by Poles against German
nationals since the beginning of
1899.
AS during the Czech crisis, last
summer, the newspapers published
stirring accounts of Germans seek
ing refuge in the Fatherland. The
Deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung re-
ported from Breslau that during May
and June, 1881 German nationals
fled from Poland into Upper Silesia,
where they were cared for in
! camps.
There were reports, which could
not be verified, that German soldiers
now massed along the German
Polish frontier have little booklets
telling them how to ask for the most
obvious and necessary things in
Polish.
