NEW YORK. March 14.-The fact

turned out to be a dud is consider
ably responsible for the fact that
De Witt Mackenzie is now writing
analytical articles on foreign affairs.

representative at the British front,
and a colleague were surveying the

scrambled to safety.
Covered Versailles Conference.
After the war, Mackenzie helped
cover the Versailles Peace Confer
ence. and then returned to the
London A. P. Bureau. In 1881, when
England went off the gold standard,
he obtained the first interview
j. P. Morgan ever gave for publica-
ton.
In 1898, Mackenzie returned to the
United States and was chief of the
Associated Press foreign service for
three years.
Mackenzie was in London when
British Premier Chamberlain made
his dramatic dash by air to Hitler's
retreat at Berchtesgaden in the Ba-
varian Alps, in an effort to save
Czecho-S -Slovakia. Mackenzie flew
after Chamberlain, and later coV-
cred the conferences between Hitler
and Chamberlain at Godesberg and
Munich.
After accompanying Hitler into
Czecho-S -Slovakia when the Reich an
nexed Sudetenland, Mackenzie made
a tour of IA of the countries affected
bv the Nazi chiefs conquest. These
included Poland, Hungary and all
the Balkan states. as well as Italy.
Broke Appeasement Story.
He was the first to break the news
that the Anglo-French allies had
finally abandoned appeasement as
policy.
Mackenzie started his foreign af-
fairs column in 1887 Since the war
began, he has written about 46O col
umns. which are wired daily by the
Special News Service to more than
300 newspapers.
Mackenzie uses a Sherlock Holmes
method of analyzing foreign affairs.
He eliminates everything that is I'M
possible, and whatever remains, no
matter how improbable, is the truth
He puts his conclusions in simple
straightforward language. "AdJec-
tives and epigrams," he says, nave
told more lies than anything In the
world"
He Avoids Predictions.
He considers that it is the busi-
ness of an analyst to point out
significance, trends, probabilities
and possibilities, all on the solid
basis of the known facts. He re-
lieves the temptation to make pre-
dictions by writing them out on
slips of paper, sealing them in
envelopes and reading them later
to himself.
He believes there's no substitute
for personal experience in assaying
development abroad: "If you've
been in Turkey and know the way
the Turk mind works, you're in a
much better position to know how
something they do is going to af-
feet the axis"
He has had personal contact with
a good many of the figures in the
limelight today-Hitler, Churchill,
Mussolini, Halifax Goering, Laval,
Reynaud, among others.
His mail includes letters of praise

on Shabuoth is a symbolism re-
minding us of the harvest time
when this holiday was observed
because during the harvest pea
SAINTS are too busy to prepare elab-

that the Torah is hkened to milk,

a large part of American industry
will not soon be relaxed, even in

definite steps to show the need for
such relaxation as well as it's in
