that. Principally, it is that more an
I more South Americans are beginnin
to believe that Hitler is going to com
out second best, which means tina
there will be no more Hitler when th
fracas is all over. Also, the commun
lists. who are fairly strong in certain
South American countries, are n
longer chanting the Yankee imperial
ism" refrain; they have left that t.
falangists are still influential in higl
places, and they speak the Language
that the natives understand; they are
the spearhead of the nazi and fascist
movement And the German colon
lists, most of them following the nazi
line, are numerous; they are distinct
ly not 'despised minority In
Chilli, for example, Japanese influence
is great In the event of Hitler vic
tory, a great many people will hop on
to the nazi bandwagon = unless, of
course, if the United States sees to it
that there is no nazi bandwagon to
hop on to. That will mean imperial
ism in big way.
Evidently, some of our senate iso-
lationists are quite willing to settle
the issue on policy of American i'm
perialism, and, if necessary, to do
battle with Hitler if he gets into the
way. Senator D. Worth Clark is quite
outspoken in that regard. But that
will mean fighting Hitler when the
nazi fuehrer himself selects the time,
place, and conditions of combat. That
isn't wise strategy.

plying to an attack on labor unions
as ''racketeering outfits" made by
gentleman farmer during the recent
agricultural planning conference held
in Chicago, warned the farmer against
lining up with the enemies of labor.
Said Wickard: "The farmer would |
make big mistake were he to line
up with the reactionary forces against |
abor, and against payment of decent
wages of workers. He should remem-
Der that the city worker is his best |
customer, and that he can enjoy pros
porous times only when the city
worker is well off economically.
