1.-THE PEOPLE ARE ON The MARCH"
SAYS VICE PRESIDENT WALLACE

them collectively, and when the chi
dren of all the people have an oppol
tunity to attend schools which teac
them truths of the real world in whic
they live-when these opportunitie
are open to everyone, then the worl
moves straight ahead.
But in countries where the abilit
to read and write has been recent
acquired or where the people bav
had no long experience in governini
: themselves on the basis Of their owl
: thinking, it is easy for demagogs Il
, arise and prostitute the mind of tn
common man to their own base ends
! Such a demagog may get f1nancia
, help from some person of wealth WHIT
: is unaware of what the end result vii
be. With this backing the demagos
may dominate the minds of the PEG
pie, and, from whatever degree O
freedom they have, lead them back
ward into slavery. Herr Thyssen, the
wealthy German steel man, little re
allied what he was doing when he
gave Hitler enough money to play or
the minds of the German people.
Financing Demagogs
The demagOg is the curse of the
modern world, and of all the dema
gogs, the worst are those financed by
wel-meaning wealthy men who sin
cerely believe that their wealth Is
likely to be safer if they can hire
men with political "it' to change the
signposts and lure the people back
into slavery of the most degraded
kind.
Unfortunately for the wealthy
men who finance movements of this
sort, as we'll as for the people them
selves, the successful demagog ls a
powerful genie who, when once let
| out of his bottle, refuses to obey
anyone's command. AS long as his
spell holds, he defies God Himself,
| and Satan Is turned loose upon the
| world.
Through the leaders of the Nazi
revolution, Satan now is trying to
lead the common man Of the whole
world back into slavery and darkness.
For the stark truth is that the vio-
lence preached by the Mails Is the
DEVILS own religion of darkness. So
also is the doctrine that one race or
class is by heredity superior and that
all other races or classes are sup
posed to be slaves. The belief in one
Satan-inspired fuehrer with his Outs
lings, his Lavals, and his Mussolinis-
his gauleiters in every nation in the
worlds the last and ultimate dark
ness. Is there any hell hotter than
that of being a Quisling, unless it is
that of being Laval or a Mussolini?
The Rest Are Stooges
In a twisted sense, there is some
thing almost great in the figure of
the supreme devil operating through a
human form, in Hitler who has the
daring to spit straight into the eye
of God and man. But the nazi system
has a heroic position for only one
leader. By definition only one per-
son is allowed to retain full soyer-
eighty over his own soul. All the
rest are stooges - they are stooges
who have been mentally and polite
ally degraded, and who feel that they
can get square with the world only |
by mentally and politically degrading |
other people. These stooges are real
ly psycopathic cases. Satan has |
turned loose upon us the insane.
The march Of freedom of the past
l50 years has been a long-drawn-out
peoples revolution. In this great
evolution Of the people there were
he American Revolution of 1775, the
French Revolution of 1892, the Latin
American revolutions of the Bolivar
an era, the German Revolution of
L84S, and the Russian Revolution of
1918.
Each spoke for the common man
in terms of blood on the battlefield.
Some went to excess. But the sig
nifcant thing is that the people
CROPPED their way to the light. More
of them learned to think and work
together.
twilight of the Gods
The peoples revolution aims at !,
'eace and not at violence, but if the
lights of the common man are at
acked it unleashes the ferocity of a
he-bear who has lost a cub. When
he nazi psychologists tell their mas
er Hitler that we in the United
tates may be able to produce hun
reds of thousands Of planes, but that
re have no will to fight, they are
My fooling themselves and him. The
ruth is that when the rights of the
.merican people are transgressed, the
,merican people will fight with
elentless fury which will drive the
ncient Teutonic gods back covering h
ito their caves. The Gotterdame- D
ing has come for Odin and his crew. II
The people are on the march to-
ward even fuller freedom than the 0
most fortunate peoples of the earth e
have hitherto enjoyed. No nazi h
;ounter-revolution will stop 1t. il
The common man will smoke the y
itler stooges out into the open in the
lie
