compatible with the realities OF
modern life. 1t is like prolif-
Grating cancer.
Hitlers super-nationalism Is
rapidly destroying all other
European nationaliSmS, as
Japan's super nationalism is
bent on destroying all other
Asiatic nationaliSms. Instead of
bringing about union OF
peoples, on the basis of free
dom and equality. it is directed
toward union under the sword
and under the lash.
Hence the bitter and unend-
ing resistance of the people even
when their governments are
broken and their armies de-
stroyed. Hence the latent or
open civil war that Smolders
after each Nazi conquest. Hence
the victories that are no VIC
tories. because they bring no
peace. q
DUT neither will such outworn
~ phrases as sovereign rights
and self government" bring
peace. And certainly we shall
have no peace by the revival OF
the doctrine of original sin by
which one nation is to be made
the scapegoat for ALL
To assign exclusive guilt for
this war is to begin to lie. There
is an active guilt and passive
guilt. a guilt immediate and a
guilt remote.
Granted that the active guilt
is the NaZis':.- the passive guilt
is upon the whole world of ives
tern nations, who played, each
one its role in creating naZi-
ism; the arrogance of Britain;
the grasping narrow visioned
middle class spirit of France;
the self-righteous and negative
isolationism of Amer lea; the
bigoted fanaticism Of Russia;
the petty egotism of the small
states of eastern Europe; and
the terrifying inverted ego of
the Germans.
Above all, the panic and the
insecurity that have afflicted all
peoples since 1918 is root
cause of the war; the Subcon-
scious realization telegraphing
continually TO the nerve-ends OF
the man in the street every
where that things couldn't go
on like this in booms and de-
pressionS, nihilistic revolutions,
crushing taxes and mounting
anarchy.
THE Atlantic Charter is only
- another symptom OF demo-
cratic inadequacy. II matters
only for that reason. 1t will not
be the charter of peace, for
peace terms will not be made by
two men however well-inten-
toned and noble, meeting on a
boat somewhere and issuing
what has all the earmarks. of
an improvised statement. The
mental and physical anguish of
the last years will not be cured
by eight pills.
But when V stands for vision
as we'll as for victory we will
be on our way to peace. This
war against Hitler cannot be
won for the things that pro-
duced Hitler. It's solution begins
with an act of repentance.
There is a tendency in the
world. among the peoples, that
must be recognized, with which
one can move to victory for the
peoples-aA of them, including
the German. it needs discussion.

Point 8 Of Atlantic Charter
Gives Hitler German Unity
BY DOROTHY THOMPSON

IN THE last column said that
i the weakest spot in the whole
German setup is the Hitler po-
litical regime. while the strong
est is the German army.
Yet. by point eight in the At
lantic Charter, which is at least
Mr.. Roosevelt's and Mr.. Church
ills statement of peace aims, we
united the German army and the
German people behind the Hitler
regime, more effectively than
Hitler himself could have done.
We gave everybody in Germany
a reason for fighting this war to
its bitterest and most total con-
cluSion.
For point eight says that
pending the establishment of
wider and more permanent sys-
tenn of general security, the dis
armament of such nations Gas
threaten or may threaten ag-
gression outside of their from
tierS) is essential.
That means the unilateral dis
armament of Germany. The war
is. in that point, no longer adj
dressed against the NaziS but
against Germany. The proposal
is utterly to destroy the German
army in a world of seething
hatred.
I BELIEVE with Mr. Churchill
i and Mr.. Roosevelt that no
peace can be negotiated with
the Hitler regime and that il
must be destroyed. No peace
can be negotiated with a regime
whose whole record is one of
negotiated peaces that have i'm
mediately been broken - that
have been useful springboards
for more war. But point eight
Of the Atlantic Charter means
that no peace can be negotiated
with any German government
that would have the support of
the German people or of the
German Army.
1t commits Britain and the
United States OF America to an
attempt TO defeat the German
armies and the German people
and impose a dictated peace.
And ii is q very great question
whether this is possible and an
even greater question whether
II is desirable.
I HAVE withheld this comment
Il for months, and make it now
reluctantly. in the apprehension
that II will be used by those
who, without single construc-
tive idea of their own. are bent
on paralyzing the administra-
ton, and creating disunity and
chaos.
THE greatest danger of this
Il war is that il will fall into
the nihilistic pattern of its origi-
majors, the Nazis. and become
sheer aimless destruction that
over years of unresolved strug-
gle will produce disease, cpl
denies. famine and such a mad
ness of hatred and blindness
as will leave western civiliza-
ton a rotting shambles.
This war has occurred out of
the incapacity OF governments
democratic or totalitarian - 10

cal and economic system COM

MANY congratulations on hav-
WI ing printed the complete
text of Charles A. Lindbergh's
Madison Square Garden address.
1t is the first time / have noted
a Detroit paper with the courage
to print his actual words rather
than a garbled. twisted and
"scare-cat' headline version of
them.
Whether he is right or wrong
is not half so important as that
we. in a democracy. have the
right TO listen 10 different
point of view than that dictated
by the powers that be.
If the mothers of America are
TO be asked TO send an eXpedi-
tionary force of 100000
sons TO Europe and, after vic
tory" asked TO keep a police
army in Europe for generations,
it is only right that they should
be allowed to study all sides of
the problem first.
Again, congratulations for

Stain S Hints
About Hess
Not Startling
Every ChonceIlery Has
Heard Explanation
BY PAUL MALL0N

WASHINGTON. Nov. TO-
" Stain talked as if he knew
something about the mysterious
descent of Herr Hess into Eng
land. No doubt he does. That
mystery has been cleared in
every chancellery in the world.
The story is that Hitler turned
his back and let Hess 60 10
London with world anti
Communist peace proposal. The
idea was Hess own, but he was
furnished with a double-tanked
alrpiane, complete charts show
ing the way to England and a
full set of navigation inStru-
ments mot plentiful in Nazi-
DOM
HESS thought he could get in
- contact with anti-Communist
peers and high-ranking British
crs to force a peace upon the
British government. The plan he
submitted would leave the Brit
ish Empire untouched.
Churchill buried the scheme
with the approval of Mr.. Roose-
welt. They recognized the project
for what it !waS--a compromise
with Hitlerism.
The Duke of Hamilton upon
whose estate Hess landed, has
suffered from the incident more
than Hitler's right-man.
The duke was busy fighting in
the Raj at the time and has
taken a severe Raging since
from British officials.
Hess was remove some
months ago from a London hos
pitai to a comfortable place in
the British countryside.
CTALIN'S speech was designed
~ to incite the British and
Americans to open another
front in Europe. But the sug-
gestion has fallen on flat ears
here.
The British claim they have
insufficient equipment. although
their secret production figures
indicate they have made a senSa-
tional progress in that respect
since Dunkirk. In any event, we
certainly have insufficient power
TO start anything
Around here the idea of an
invasion through France or
Spain is considered preposterous.
All plans locally are projects
toward the possibility of 1912
campaign.

Only four votes were cast

Will hear about il.
SENATOR TYDINGS gave ex-
preston TO a cloakroom
conviction when he suggested
that Mr.. Roosevelt h ad not
thought out the economic re-
suits OF his war program.
Disturbing TO many a political
authority here is the disincli-
nation of the White House to
take hold sharply of the price
and wage problems, and the Of
fetal inclination TO let labor
work out its selfish destiny.
The theory on which the
government is working is APP
parently based on the suppose

huge debt in time, but little
thought has been given to post
