Evening star., 1940-02-04

YN MAY, 1885, distinguished crowd of
mourners assembled in Craoow, Poland.
d for the funeral of Marshal Pilsudski.
Foreign Minister Pierre Laval was there to
represent France; ponderous bemedaled
Hermann Goering came to represent the
Third Reich.
But the heads of the foreign delegations did
more than mourn for the departed Polish
dictator Such an occasion is always the scene
of important political conferences At one of
these impromptu parleys the German Mar
shall was conversing with the French Foreign
Minister Holding Laval by the arm Goering
whispered: IF you Frenchmen and we Ger
mans are ever so idiotic as to 60 to war with
. each other, the Russian Bolsheviks will come
in and take us ALL And we shall deserve it.
What Goering said to Laval over four and
half years ago is of the utmost importance In
the present European situation. Before many
months have passed it may have the most
far-reaching consequences. Indeed, what was
whispered at Cracow may change the trend of
history. 1t may bring dramatic and un-
expected climax to the Second World War
To the insiders in France and Britain the
Second World War is not ''phony' war.
From the morning when Hitlers bombers
roared across the Polish frontier, the political
and military strategists in Paris and London
have been proceeding according to plan. 1t is
their aim to win the war without terrible
sacrifice of life They have been counting on
winning with the assistance of forces inside
enemy territory. In fact, the French and
British publics have realized all along that
their leaders hope for revolution in Ger
many.
Dun the Allied public has not known all that
the insiders know or exactly what the
French and British leaders are hoping for.
Frenchmen and Englishmen know only
vaguely that there have been runblings OF
discomfort in Nazidom Like many people in
America, men and women in France and
Britain have been talking about German
revolution They have in mind revolt from
the bottom that would destroy the Nazi
regime. They hope that revolution by the
German masses will end Hitlerism and the
war.
Informed Frenchmen and Englishmen
expect nothing of the kind to happen. They
know that no revolt from the bottom can take
Evening star., 1940-02-04

place in the Reich now. They realize that if
the war should drag on for two or three years,
arevolution from the bottom would be prob
ability. But by that time it might be too late
to save Europe from defamation and Dol
shevisrn. Still, they have reasons for their
belief that a revolutionary movement is
brewing in Germany But it would be revolt
from the top. Strange as it may seem to
Americans, Germany's enemies are putting
their hopes on Germany's second-in-oom-
mand, on Hitler heir and understudy, Mar
shall Goering.
This is the way the war has looked to the
insiders in France and Britain. When the
conflict broke out, the French and British
