To Address Club
Howard Pierce Davis, Editor, COM
mentator and news analyst, return
ed the middle of September from
three months spent in the capitols
of Europe. He talked with many Of
the important leaders in every coun-
try and he will again bring his sane,
Unconditional keen analysis of World
Affairs to his audience at Masonic
Hall under the auspices of The Maui
gatuck Woman's Club on october,
10, 1899.
On July 21st, he had the privilege
of listening to the debate on Foreign
Affairs in the British House of Com
mons. He heard the opposition lash
out furiously at Chamberlain and
accuse him of weakness in Tokyo"
"Dawdling Diplomacy in Moscow"
Vagueness in respect to Danzig" and
"Infidelity in Relations to Poland"
He also had the privilege of hear
ing Mr.. Chamberlain easily meet the
accusations on every point and he
wrote, mfr. Chamberlain's answers
were definitely adequate and be-
fore he had finished he had riddled
the fabric of the oppositions charg-
es."
From Paris he wrote on Augusct
4th, There is one inference and it
is unanimously accepted in London
and Paris. The tranquility of today
will be rudely disturbed by menacing
movements either at Danzig or on
the Hungarian border toward the
end of August. A crisis will probably
develop. This is a battle between
London and Berlin with other Euro
pean Capitols playing minor roles.
Great Britain holds the cards in
which Hitler's fate is concealed. The
British know it and Hitler knows it.
The outcome will be determined by
the reciprocal reactions of two men
and their cabinets-Adolph Hitler
and Neville Chamberlain" How true
that statement has become today
Mr.. Davis is well equipped to give a
first hand account of what is really
going on in Europe without any
censorship.
