she wants from Russia. We should
never be misled by the bright idea
of Nazi-ism and Communism de-
stroying each other
The Nazis will take what they
need from Russia and use those re-
sources to resume their march to
the west. If the time comes, we
shall hear much about allying our
selves with the Reds, etc. Let us
not be deceived. Our own inter-
ests are all that matter. and those
interests are that the Nazi revolu-
ton shall not conquer the world,
as it has set out to do. If its
necessities compel it to turn away
from us for a moment. far from
sitting back in idleness that is pre-
cisely the moment for us to be up
and doing.
That is the certain road to VIC
tory. And the only road.

be reused to resist before it was too
late? Such a peace would have very
great advantages for Hitler, always
providing he could simultaneously
take care of his revolutionary
dynamic by attacking Russia.
A Russian campaign must indeed
be an enormous temptation to the
German high command. Here they
are with a magnificent army of 200
to $50 divisions, including IS to 10
armored divisions, and no place to
use it. In fact. save for few divi-
sions in North Africa, and a noun
tain division in Crete, the German
army has seen no activity for year
except the very short campaign in
the Balkans.
An invasion of Russia would be
war on a grand scale-a real work
out for troops and stats alike. 1t is
hard to believe that there are not
fingers in the German high COM
mand which itch to push the button
that sets in motion the eastern plan.
But-there is the Royal Air Force.
1ISIt ID Vic AlICIhSoll o.
There is the unmitigated pound
| ing that Germany would get from
Britain while engaged with Russia,
providing peace cannot be patched
up. Could Germany defeat Russia
quickly enough so that the Luft-
waite could turn westward again
before too much damage had been
/ done? It seems tremendous gam
ble-unless Hitler'S fifth column in
Russia assures quick collapse of
Russian resistance, a possibility
which ought not to be ignored.
Needs Security in Rear.
Certainly success in a Russian
adventure would bring Hitler great
dvantages-notably a secure sup
ply of oil and cereals of which he
could not be deprived by blockade.
Thus his enemies, the sea-powerS,
would find the edge of one of their
most potent weapons blunted. But
he can hardly dare such a move,
with all its unforeseeable conse-
quences, unless he is secure from
attack in the rear while he fights
in Russia; always barring a Rus
sian Walkover brought about by his
fifth column.
1t might be as we'll. therefore,
to keep in mind as against the pos
sibility of peace feelers along
these lines, that the British and
ourselves could be guilty of no
greater folly than to leave Germany
free to attack Russia undisturbed.
If she is so free, she will win all

versity students apparently have
lost some of their faith in the ability
of Congress, diplomats, peace So
cieties and public opinion to keep
this country out of war, Dr.. Ralph
Gundlach, of the University Of
Washington, told the Western Psy-
Geological Association today.
They are becoming consistently
more militaristic and are showing
more of a willingness to fight, he
added.
DR.. Gundlach, a social psyCholo-
gist, based his findings on survey
of 500 University of Washington
students. This survey was compared
20 a similar investigation made five
years ago at his own University and
at three others-Nebraska Prince
ton and New York University.
In 1896 Is per cent of the WASH
ington students thought Congress
could keep this country out of war;
at present only per cent think so,

Five years ago So per cent relied
upon public opinion to maintain
peace. The number has dropped to
