A Thought for Today
An Old Dream Becomes a Nightmare

T. would be easy to greet the One-Big-
Nation-for AL Europe plan Of Hitler and
Mussolini With loud horse-laugh. Too
easy. The wild-sounding plan an
nounced in Mussolini's private newspaper
will not be dismissed with single loud
snort.
It can never come true, but that is
not quite good enough reason for dis
missing 1t utterly. Back Of it lies an age
old longing of Europe for some kind OF
order to take the place of the weary gen.
erations of economic and political anar-
chy which have racked that tired con-
tinent again and again Thousands, both
in Europe and here, will be tempted TO
say, 'There's something in thatl" That's
the inSidiouS part Of 1t, there is some
thing in it.
Europe is never going to be made into
a single "state" in the sense Hitler and
'Mussolini mean. That is, it is never 60
ing to submit to domination Of all its
peoples from Berlin where a Self-appoint-
ed master race" sits in a rigid saddle,
welding a cruel whip over "leSSer peo-
pies" whose role In the unified state"
Is melted out to them at the end OF
lash. It will never work. There are
too many millions of people in Europe
still who love freedom for there to be the
slightest chance of the Hitler plan sue
ceeding.
But It won't do to dismiss it, for all that.
For hundred years, Europe has cried for
deliverance from its fatal Balkanization.
To restore their freedom to peoples rob-
bed Of it is necessary first aim. But
it is only beginning. There is no hope
for the world in returning to condition
OF international anarchy In which the
plg-headed ruler of any local Ruritania
can juggle the peace of Europe; a condi-
ton in which every small country Is a.
pawn on a chessboard, moved about or
captured at will by the big players at
the edge of the board.
The Axis partners hold up before the
world a picture that is nightmare YER
sion of an old European dream. The
insidious part OF it is that it bears just
enough faint resemblance to the dream
that some may be unthinkingly drawn
toward it. It has, further, the virtue OF
concreteness; the forces of freedom have
not yet drawn their dream of a free
Europe in sufficiently definite lines The
Nazi proposal cannot be laughed off; 1T
must be studied, first to reveal the naked
horror of its cold impudence; second, to
bring home the stark necessity OF some
thing. better.
