To do to the WOrl0 Wnot 0e1n1Ouy
is trying to do to it requires many kinds
Of men.
II REQUIRES street browIers like Ru-
dolf Hess to overowe physical opposl-
tion and beat helpless minority people
into bloody pulp. II requires willy in
triouers like Won PoPen to be9uile dip
lomots. 1t requires traitors to their
countries, like Quisline. 1t requires
masters Of manipulation OF the mass
mind, like Goebbels. 1t oIso requires at
leost one oily but respectable voice to
assure everyone that all this IS beng
done for their own good and for the
good of all the world.
Such d voice is that OF Or. WoIther
Funk, the sf,rewd economic Brain OF
the Reich. His mission is to appeal to
business men throughout the world In
an effort to assure them that oil Ser
many wants is prosperity for oil. and
that dealing with the economic colos-
sus she is trying to set up will be pleas
ant and profitable for the rest OF the
world
So the plausible DR.. Funk is out with
another Of his frequent efforts to re-
assure an alarmed world. As usual,
there is just enough truth in what he
says to make it persuasive. And as usu-
al the basis and the conclusions are
as folse as shoteloss in q cliP-joint.
Excessive notionolisnn, extreme ou-
torchy, border trade barriers, soys Or.
Funk, we're port Of the cause OF eco
nomic collapse before the war. Right:
No use trying to reconstruct the world
on principles that led to collapse, he
insinuotes: Right.
The real aim Of German policy.
purrs DR.. Funk, is Iong-ronee cooper
alton of equal partners to eliminote de-
pressions and make everybody in the
world hoppy, happy, hoPPy.
What Cooperation? What "equol
portners"? The kind Of "co-operotion"
that France and ItoIy and Bulgaria and
Hungary and Rumonio-yes, and Rus
sio, are now giving Germany at gun
point? The kind Of "equoI partners"
that Mussoini and Hrohito and Quis-
lima and DorIon and Franco and Nj
choeI and Boris and Pu Vi and Wang
are to Hitler?
No, thank you. 1t may be, and 1t
probably is necessary to renoke the
international economic mold Of the
world. But it is not going to be done
at gun point, against the worlds will.
and exclusively according to the de-
sign Of Adolf Hitler, or even thot OF
DR.. Funk.
The eminentIy respectable Dr..
Funk probably never dubbed q Jew in
his life, probably never shot down q
single man or womon standing in de-
tense Of their homes. But the economic
blueprint extended in his innmoculote-
y-oIoved hand is hard to read, some
how, smudeed and smeored = Greot

'ModernfoId' Doors

A house which has architectural
characteristics of the French pro-
vincial style, although they are
simplified in detail to lower con-
struction costs, is presented this
week in the series of small home
plans prepared for The Star by
members of the Washington Metro
politan Section of the Maryland
Society of Architects. John <.
Cross is architect for this weeks
home.
Mr.. Cross has worked out an
inexpensive brick pattern n the
upper part of the front wall which
contributes to the distinctive ap-
pearance of the elevation. Exterior
walls are faced with red brick which
could either be painted or left
natural The roof is of varigated
green slate of rough texture. Shut
tiers and wood trim are painted a
light green-gray. An added con-
venience in rainy weather is
porchlike shelter at the garage
doors.
Could Merge Two Rooms.
The interior conforms generally
to the conventional arrangement of
floor space, except for the partition
between the living room and dining
room. Here, recognition has been
given to the present-day trend to-
ward having a flexible arrangement
Wherein the two rO0mS NAV he
merged into one space on occasions.
This has been accomplished by
using "modernfold" doors to form
the entire partition between these
rooms. 1t Is not a series of doors,
but a fabric-covered partition which
folds on itself, much like an ac-
Gordon. Each side of the partition
may have a different color of a
washable fabric to match the color
