mas remembered
IN THE European cat-fight
Il there are three autocracies-
Germany Italy and Russia.
The military and economic ef-
flciency Of the NaZiS has been
a seventh wonder of the world.
But who holds a brief for that

In every test they have re-

England's laundering perform

On a fair analysis OF this
record. nothing is 10 be argued
for the form Of government All

efficiency Of the governors.
whole art Of admlnistra-
ton is in defining the reSpon-
Sibility and delegating the au-
thority Of the heads of depart

from conflicting or overlapping.

Obscene and terrible AS has
been the work of Goebbels in
undermining the morale of OPP
posing nations. the results speak
for themselves. and they are
without precedent.
Little as we are attracted by
Goering. he has directed the or

German industrial production on

speaks for itself.
Terrible as has been the devas-

been ditched or smashed, but

Obviously the selection of key

There is not one factor in that
formula that is not possible in a
democracy. Few factors we're
not vitalized with us in 1918.

WHAT is all this talk about
w democracies not being able
TO defend against autocracy
without themselves going totali-
tartan?
The record proves that they
can do it, but only on one
prescription-that they have
proper leadership and admins
tration,
Quoting Prof. Lindsay Rogers,
the New York Times tells how
the British under Lloyd George
did it in the World War, by
placing the right men in the
right places and giving them
sufficient authority and re-
sponsibility TO concentrate and
consolidate the national effort
on all fronts-naval. military,
industrial and economic. Then,
referring TO the present mess,
il says:
But the British forgot this
lesson from their own history,
and America has not yet learned
It,"
