tins would like to be assured, not
only that their various countries
Will be politically free in broad
sense, but that a certain amount OF
kindly care will be taken OF EN-
during the period Of their recovery
and thereafter, economically, on
into indefinite futurity.
Uncle Sam and John Bull are
pointed 70 as the chaps from whom
the pledge is especially needed.
II isn't represented that it would
put added pep into Russian and
Chinese war efforts, because they're
believed to be doing their maxi
mum already Stil, they'd appreci-
ate IL. As for the over-run little
realms, already in guerilla action
or simmering for II, II would be
calculated TO soldify and stir 'em
UP TO 90 anti-Axis TO the limit. 1t
would hearten the Fighting French
also, and probably decide a lot Of
doubtful Frenchmen, meaning most
OF the rest OF 'em. Furthermore, 1t
would be liable to detach Italy
from the Axis group, from which,
at present, the average italian
would be glad TO have his king
dom disconnect itself. It would put
a finish, of course, to the small bit
of pro-Axis sentiment in Spain.
A Few in Germany
It's even suggested that, in Ger
many itself it might make a slight
impression; there are said TO be a
handful OF old-time true liberals
still lingering there. The Father
land had 'em once. and surely
they're entitled to recognition II
there are any survivors. Occasion
ally one of 'em manifests himself,
too, by escaping, as a genuine, un-
mistakable refugee, and coming
here with his anti-Hiter holler-
no fake, invariably.
The fact is that anti-Nazism ap-
parently has its democratic mill
tary as we'll as its political value
in the very territories where it's
most emphatically dominent.
II keeps Hitleristic troops at
home, doing police duty. and the
more they're detached the better,
democratically.
Well, the Axis consists Of HIT
lerites, Mussolini-ites, a small mi
nority of Falangists in ST n and
the merest germ Of its philosophy
in Argentina and Chile, maybe
though that's questionable.
Eliminate those punches and II
SINNERS down to Germany.
Japan doesn't classify.
A lot Of US regard the Japs as
the most uncivilized Of the entire
Axis lineup,
don't.
I've lived in Nippon and have
friends there, as in Germany.
But you have TO distinguish be-
tween those Jap lads and their
war lords.
On earth there's no similar COM
parison.
I'm acquainted with Jap news
papermen who are as civilized as
am. They're not in the least like
the Chinese. A Chinese military
commander Is like one Of our own.
A Jap commander is one Of the
Mikado's pre- historic "samurai.'
The Mikado himself can't boss EN-.
Net Conclusion
The net conclusion is that:
/. Normal democratic nationali-
ties have got to be assem- bled as
fast as possible.
2. Certain freak or accidental
nationalities must be scooped in
and guaranteed as 70 their respec-
tive futures.
3. The prospectively-hcked ma
tionalities must be assured that
civilization won't be too COMPOUNDED
mean with EN-.
T. And the Jsps will have to be
eXterminated.
Gosh! I regret this latter. Yet
they're the birds who don't figure
as any exception. Individually
they'll be spared, but nationally?
that's different!
