ence was not being used to pre-
vent war in the only way it
might have been prevented, by
a firm collective stand, but was
being urged to urge war-to urge
the western powers to collaborate
with Hitler for q war against
Russia.
He makes it clear that he
never doubted for an instant
that Nazi Germany intended to
start a war. 1T was clear to
me that Germany had, or would
soon have, the strongest army
and airforce in the world, and
that she intended to use her
military forces to expand her
territory"
He therefore urged the Brit
ish and the French govern
ments-while pursuing his per-
sonal interventionism to
build their military forces with
the utmost rapidity. but per-
NIT Germany to expand east
ward into Russia without de-
claring war"
Mr.. Lindbergh declares that
these governments disregarded
his advice.
Did they?
Took Lindbergh's Advice.
In September, 1888, while Mr..
Lindbergh was still acting as a
personal and, as far as We know,
self-appointed adviser to the al
lied governments of Europe, these
governments, headed by Mr..
Chamberlain and M. Daladier,
took his advice and signed an
agreement with Hitler in Munich.
That agreement. BROKE the
Franco Russian alliance. 2-Dis-
armed for Hitler so superbly
trained and fully equipped Czech
divisions. 3-Handed Hitler a
situation which he Immediately
exploited to get control of all
Czecho-Slovakia and with it the
most powerful armament works
In the East.
Mr.. Lindbergh admits that he
advised the British and French to
do this. And the American people
surely have the right to ask of
this 'isolationist," On whose
authority and under whose influ- ,
ence did you advise the British
and French governments?"
Mr.. Lindbergh says, BY 1888 I
had come to the conclusion that
II war occurred between Ger
many on the one side and France
and England on the other, it
would either result in a German
victory or in q PROSTATE and
devastated Europe"
When Did He Reach Conclusionc
At what time in 1888 did Mr..
Lindbergh reach this conclusion?
In another passage of the
speech he says, After the Sieg-
friend Line was built, knew that
the French and British armies
were no longer in position to
attack Germany successfully"
Were they in a position to at
tack before the Siegfried Line
was built?
They were in a far better posi-
ton than they ever were after
ward. Russia stood in the East,
France and Britain in the West,
and Czecho-Slovakia between,
and the three were in alliance. It
was that situation that Hitler
had to wreck before Germany
could start using her military
forces to expand her territory"
1t was in February 1888, that
Hitler began his diplomatic at
tack on Austria. In April, 1888,
he forced a German-Austrian
frontier. This took place with
the tacit approval of the British
and French governments, who
were following Mr.. Lindbergh's
advice.
Up until this time there was

dangerous deception of the people.
1t does more than that; it is OF
actual aid to Hitler. For, beyond
dispute, 1t is impossible effectively to
operate our foreign policy If our
domestic affairs are in q mess.
The force with which we deal
with matters abroad depends on
the competence with which we man.
age our establishment at home.
We cannot be strong in the foreign
field if we are weak in the domestic
field. No one should have to argue
that impotence at home means i'm
potence abroad.
Long Distance Pugnacity.
Neither long distance presidential
pugnacity over the radio nor the
roseate publicity Of administration
information services" detracts from
the solidity Of these facts.
The question arises as to whether
the stage has not been reached
when determined action should be
taken to compel the President to
put an end to the things that
paralyze not only our attempt to
aid Britain and Russia but to de-
fend ourselves.
Every effort to persuade him to
accept advice along these lines or
to correct the obvious mistakes has
failed. Perhaps the effort TO compel
will fail, too, but at least it should
be made.
1t was to this end that Senator
Byrd. who has supported every item
of the foreign policy to date, de-
clared last week that, Judged by
any standard, our national defense
program to date is a failure" and
served notice that he did not intend
to 60 "one step further" until
action is taken to stop all defense
strikes and reduce the incompetency
which permeates our defense pro-
gram"
If this means opposition to revi-
sion of the Neutrality Act, it is not
consistent with the national inter-
ests, because failure now of that
effort would be very bad indeed. But
If it means an intention to discard
the idea that any protest against
the appalling incompetency with
which domestic affairs are being
handled weakens our position in the
foreign field-if that is the case,
then it not only is in the national
interests but in the interests Of Brit
ain, Russia and every other country
anxious to end the Hitler menace
Concerted Effort.
If Mr.. Willkie, Senator Austin,
Senator Bridges. Representative
Wadsworth, Senator George. Sena-
tor Glass, Senator Bailey, Mr.. Ba-
ruch, Lewis w. Douglas, John E.
Hanes, Mr.. Knudsen and the many
other anti-New Deal Democrats
and Republicans who have given
Mr.. Roosevelt's foreign policy in
dispensable support and rendered
him invaluable aid-if these men
joined Senator Byrd in demand
that the administration adopt a
decent labor policy, a decent farm
policy, a decent price policy, decent
financial policy and then substitute
competent men for the known in
competents in the defense manage.

of additional application of potash
in the production of more and bet

Tomato growers in the Yicinities
of Dover and Camden-Wyoming

jects this year include Nolan Steele,
John Miller, Adam Byler, Clifford
Johnson; Samuel Walters. P. F.
Walters, Harry Barrett, John Do

Each of these farmers will receive
200 pounds of muriate of potash
for side-dressing their tomato
plants, and will keep a cost account
of their crop.
At this supper meeting George r.
Cobb, Agronomist for the American
Potash Institute, explained the fer
tilization of tomatoes, and Kenneth
w. Baker, farm management spe-
cialist, of the University of Della
ware, discussed the methods of
keeping cost account records.
Within the past few weeks copies
of summary of these tomato dem

have been mailed to a large num-
ber of tomato growers in Kent
county.

The Non-Learning Pupil

STRAY Stories" prints the joke
that the father told his son that his
teacher said he couldn't teach the
boy anything. To which the boy
replied that he always knew the
teacher was no good.
Some school and college stu
dents thin kthat knowledge can be
pumped into them without effort on
their part. They frequently ask
some fellow pupil to tell them just
how some hard problem can be
solved, without studying the thing
out for themselves. Knowledge is
not acquired in that way. ItFtakes
some sweat and strain to learn.
The would-be learner has to dig
into his books at hours when his
sportive companions are tossing
baseballs and performing jitterbug
stunts.

Intruders N The Grass

One OF the worries of the house,
holder is created by the weeds In
his lawn. No matter how carefully
he plants his grass and rolls his
turf and pours on the plant food,
those pesky weeds have a way of
wolking into his nice soil. The
birds of the air and the winds Of
the heaven bring these unwanted
seeds, an dthe richer his soul, the
better they like 1t, and prepare to
make their permanent homes there.
It may take considerable digging
with some kind of a weed cutter
before those unwelcome guests
find they are not wanted and decide
to quit. Meanwhile he would better
not let those rowdy interlopers
blossom and go to seed. The more
they scatter their little seeds over
his land; the harder the struggle he
will have with them.

ports Of other agencies of the Fed

the National Defense Commission
that food prices rose from 10 TO
so in two weeks during April.
These authentic figures also show
that average prices on all commod-
tiles have risen nearly So during
the past year, and that foods went
up during the same year 8.2To, tex

THE FARMERS PREDICAMENT

Fred H. Sexauer, president Of the
Dairymen's League Cooperative AS
sociation of New York, recently an
nounced that it has become neces-
sary to "sek milk prices for farm
ers that will properly reflect in
creased COSTS"
AS everyone knows, the prices of
practically everything the farmer
must pay for-labor, taxes, ma
terials and supplies-are rising,
He can't make both ends meet
under these conditions with SELL
ing price structure that was barely
adequate in normal times. The
farmer can't produce money out Of
his hat any more than the rest of
us.
Consumer income is also going
up. The farmer has no choice but
to seek more for his crops-he
cannot operate otherwise.
