We have a government which
truckles to the Soviet Union ex-
actly as the government of Presi-
dent Blum truckled In France.
Did that blind Blum government
help France in any way or degree
in its preparations for war or its
measures for defense?
Did II make the Maginot Line

Did IL make the spirit of France
unconquerable?
Did 1t unity the citiZenry?

No. Russia betrayed France as
IL betrayed England and as 1t will
surely betray the stupid confidence
and cooperation of the United
States.
Do not our people realize this?
Surely our government must
realize II.
We cannot be completely de-
ceived, and tho only explanation Of
our folly in appeasing Russia Is
that some of the officials of our

Russia led England along-by
the nose-got what she could out
Of England--promised everything
and did nothing.
One fine morning England woke
up to read In the papers that her
intended ally-her trusted friend
had made a treaty with Ger
many, and that the Russian plan
was not TO crush Germany but TO
aid Germany.
Not altogether on an altruistic
basis, TO be sure.
Parts Of Poland and Rumania
had to be handed TO Russia on
silver platter. and the lives of the
little independent nations OF Lat
via, Lithuania and Esthonia had to
be delivered TO Russia--like the
head OF John the Baptist TO Herod
on a charger.
Russia will take what she can
grab. but she does not like TO risk
anything herself.
The Russian army, as we have
seen in Finland, Is not very good
In foreign wars.
Its practical value lies in muir
dering peasants at home.
The army and famine work in
