see the beginning or a process OF
slow but sure disintegration.
WE MUST STRIKE NOW
Every German at heart thinks
OF three things as inseparably
joined together-wsr defeat, and
initiation. The day we declare war
will be the day the Nazis know
they are beaten. They will con-
tinue TO put up a strong resist
ance, but their hope Of world do
minion will be gone. Every one
of them will secretly endeavor to
escape the final defeat with as
little personal loss and suffering
as he can.
Remember that Hitler needs
time TO organize his New
Europe and make IL contribute
TO his military machine. We
must not give him that time.
He shall not have 1t.
Remember that every nation
conquered by the German armies
makes one more area of discon-
tentment to be policed, that Hitler
dare not withdraw from any con-
quered territory. He may conquer
smaller nations, but he is not max
ing any friends for Germany in the
process.
The farther his armies advance
TO the south and east, the more
responsibility he undertakes, the
longer his Lines of communication
must be. The Germans could
achieve their New Europe If they
were once allowed to devote all
their energy toward that end, but
they can never do that If we keep
up the military pressure from the
west. History will record the
story Of one more would-be world
conqueror who attempted too
much.

All he can do is to pound away

tribution 10 the war should be

guarantee the safe delivery OF our

We can win, but not in the half
hearted way we are now follow
ing. Theodore Roosevelt was
eternally right when he said, You
can't fight nalf war" A short
of war" policy now will leave us
short of victory.
Lndbergh has warned us
not to repeat the mistake the
British and French made when
they declared war in 1899.
just what was their mistake?
Not In declaring war too soon,
but at least three years too
late. When Germany broke
her treaty pledges to rearm,
that was the time for action.
Every year afterwards, the
cost of victory increased. IL
the western allies had delayed
still longer, does anyone be-
lieve they would have been
better off In the long run:
They would have been en-
shaved without having any
real chance Of defending them
selves.
The lesson for US is not to delay
too long. We have been tardy in
defense preparations. We must
act more swiftly now, for that
very reason. The sooner we de-
clare war, The better for US. To
wait is far more dangerous than
to act.

unable TO fight with all our power
To destroy Hitlerism utterly. We
had better begin to prepare for

man language, prscticing the

Sea Powers End Orient Crisis
Japan Urges It's Nationals
Not to Become Alarmed at
Rumors of U. S. War

(By International News Service)
London, Feb. 15-lNS-Authori-
tatiYe British sources expressed be-
lief today that an attempt by Chan
cellor Hitler to create a diversion"
in the Far East has been abated.
They stated that swift action by
the four Pacific powers-the Unit
ed States, Australia. Great Britain
and the Dutch East Ind,es-had
saved a dangerous situat on"
Pressure was brought to bear on
Tokyo to prevent possible Japa-
nese thrust to the south.
The joint action consisted OF
these four moves: first, the United
States advised evacuation of Ameri-
can nationals from the Orient. Sec
ond, Australia announced the war
was entering state OF utmost
gravity. Third, Britain reminded
the Japanese government that Italy
made a mistake" in entering the
war. Fourth, the Dutch East Indies
government ordered its ships IN
the Pacific to proceed to neutral
ports.
British newspapers interpreted
the exchange Of remarks between
President Roosevelt and japanese
Ambassador Kichisaburo Nomura
in Washington as a hint by the
American Chief Executive that It
rests with Japan to improve her
relations with the United States.

Adolf Hitler will try to conquer
the British Isles this month; he will
use a new weapon or technique,
probably gas: he has a 25-75 chance
of succeeding.
Harvey Klemmer, former Ypsi-
lanti resident, recently returned
from London after more than two
years as attache OF the American
embassy, and aide to former AM
bassador Joseph P. Kennedy, said
today that the great. about Ger
man offensive would come earlier
than people think.
And. he added, it will be on
gigantic scale, not only against the
British Isles but also in the Balk-
ans, the Mediterranean. and the
Far East.
But Hitler's worst-and ITS silly
to underestimate the power OF his
war machine"-will not be good
enough and. Klemmer said. the
British will survive because "they'i.
never quit"
