Quiz Kid Proving
 Problem,
By ROBIN COoNs

HOLLY WOOD-l PoS o cross of me and will bring 27 spon- sors crashing on my neck. but here I am suggesting that seven-year- old quiz kid is just about the same as any other seven-year-old when it comes to Hollywood.
 Joel Kupperman. one of those youngsters who know all the an- swers, arrived to fulfill movie contract and, very shortly, made it obvious that he wasn't impressed. He knows more about mathematics than he does about Mickey Mouse, and he'd rather work problem in cube root than meet Gary Cooper in person. Figures of Betty Grable, Marlene Dietrich and Maria Mon tez mean nothing to him. He is interested in figures. period.
 The Universal people-associate producer Bernard Burton in par ticular soon realized that they were faced with a $64 question in the case of young Kupperman, i.e., how to make their baby Einstein sufficiently interested in motion pie lures to take seriously his role in "The Third Glory" movie star ring 17-year-old Donald O'Connor, an old man of whom tfrankly) young Joel had never heard until he reached Hollywood.
 Mir. Burton, the associate pro- ducer, has had considerable exper- fence in producing movies with ju- venile actors. Before Joel started his role, he decided, Joel should visit the set for an hour or so each day. in order to get used to lights camera, technical crew and actors

 Mir Burton was right. Young Joel made himself right at home right away.
 The first day he was on the set he paid no attention to what was happening before the camera. He explored the sound stage. crawled behind flats leaning against the wall, crawled up the stairways to the catwalks, and never once heard the call of Quiet, please from MT. Charles Lamont, the director.
 In the middle of one take, Joel called across the stage to his mother that he had discovered a boat As MT. Lamont started the scene again, Young Master Kupperman decided to explore the space in front of the lens, thus making an unscheduled movie debut. That was when MT Lamont suggested that Joel be taken for walk outside the stage Joel, an agreeable youngster, was ready and willing, and for nearly 30 minutes the art of the cinema pro- gresSed

The Great Game of Politics
Book Claims Alliances Necessary to US.
To Redeem Commitments in Our foreign Policy

commitments either in the Atlantic
or IN the Pacific without counting
upon the British fleet, Mr.. Lipp-
mann also makes 1t clear that the
minimum requirement for security,
following victory in this war, is the
continued cooperation of Britain,
America and Russia as a nuclear
alliance, to which China, as she
emerges and develops into a great
power. will also adhere. and around
which the other liberty loving ma
tions, for their own interests, will
gather in some kind of collective
organization.
Without this nuclear alliance.
there can be no possible guarantee
of peace, no promise that after the
peace the stage will not be set again
for a third and utterly catastrophe
global conflict.
The sheer facts cited by Mr.. Lipp-
mann make the doctrine of isola-
tionism seen even less enlightened
for the future than it has been in
the past. They leave the isolationists
not leg on which to stand.
1solationism, the author insists, is
not the correct word to describe the
policy OF those who, ignoring the
fact that by ourselves we are unable
to live up to them. would have us
hold to our commitments in South
America and In the Far East with
out any alliance that would enable
us to make them good If the test
came. The correct word, he saws. is

bankrupt" Policy.
Certainly, without any alliance,
our foreign policy is a bankrupt
policy We simply could not redeem
our pledges If once they should be
seriously challenged and we were
wholly without allies or friends. The
only natural ally on whom we can
count, OF course. Is Britain. And we
count on her because for her Sc
curity she must count on us Just
as much as we count of her.
Why. after these two world wars.
any one should question our mutual
dependence is hard to understand.
One OF the great values Of Mr.. Lipp-
mann's book is that he presents the
facts and makes the deductions 30
lucidly and logically that the sim
plest mind should be able to grasp
them.
One reviewer points out, however.
that while Mr.. Lippmann severely
criticizes President Wilson for his
"zigzag course" prior to our entrance
into the last war, he strangely
shrinks from any criticism at all
of President Roosevelt for his zig
zag course" in foreign affairs prior
to ls4l; or for the phony third-term
nomination draft" which for many
months prevented any real effort
toward preparedness-or for the
speeches which promoted the belief
he must have known was unbiased.

ing ma jority in the cabinet, be-
cause the bulk of the members
are politicos who lean towards
the politically-minded De Gaulle,
Is serious.
After having obtained almost
unlimited control over admins
trative and political affairs in
North Africa, De Gaulle now is
endeavoring to wrench from
Giraud the control OF the armed
forces. The formula is that
Graud Is to remain commander
in chief of the forces while De
Gaulle Is to be made minister of
national defense. While Giraud
will deal with strategy, the ap-
pointment of commanders OF
large and small units in the
army, air force and navy will be
in De Gaulle's hands.
"'css ubts IthyItESs
De Gaulle does not trust any,
body who has held an appoint
ment from Vichy. He suspects
all officers who have not taken
an oath of personal allegiance to
him. The number of officers
which surrounds the political
general is not large enough to
provide commanders for the
fighting forces. But De Gaulle
figures he won't have much
trouble to get large number of
officers exclusively on his side IL
he becomes minister of national
defense.
Patronage is an old political
trick in France. Only a few very
high-minded men will resist the
choice between remaining in the
shadow or pledeing themselves to
De Gaulle. Such a situation has
existed in France since the last
war and had brought a large
number Of military nonentities
to the head of the armed forces
when the war began.
Washington is worried about

nations as for individuals whose OBJ
legations are not covered by their
resources; that countries, like citi-
zens, who make commitments which
they cannot fulfill expose them
selves needlessly to peril and live
without real security. That we are
such a country; that in the Pacific
as we'll as on this continent we have
made promises which, If called on,
we could not redeem by ourselves:
that we have had no foreign policy
worthy of the name In the last so
years, and have none now-these
are statements which Mr.. Lippmann
so buttresses with fact and argu-
ment that they must be accepted.
Certainly it is true that in the
Monroe Doctrine. regarded as the
basic American foreign policy, our
commitments have always exceeded
our resources and If they should
ever be seriously challenged we
could only cover them with the aid
Of Great Britain, whose interests,
like our own, lie in seeing that no
other European power establishes a
base on the Western Hemisphere.
Calm Recital Of Facts.
This mutually Of British and
American interests and our mutual
concern for q peaceful world is geo.
era aphicslly and historically demon
strated by Mr.. Lippmsnn In a calm
recital of the cold facts of national
and international life.
So completely does he prove the
case that his statement OF the fun
damental necessity OF British
American alliance seems to rest on
a plane above dispute. There al
ways will be between the British
and ourselves differences, contro-
versies, prejudices and inevitable

can be settled by discussion and
negotiations once two great truths
are accepted-irst, that war now
between the two nations is unthink-
able; second. that any serious war
against one must involve the other
as an ally.
Mr.. Lippmann does not touch on
the sentimental reasons for such an
alliance-the common language. the
common Law. the common religion
and to large extent the common
descent. He puts it where it should
be-solely on the grounds of nation
al interests.

Morale Seen Affected.
There are definite indications
that q wave Of discomfort and
restlessness exists in the French
armed forces. This Is particu-
larly true in the navy where the
officers whom De Gaulle fire.
quently has described as Petain-
lists are said to wish to be in
corporated in the American or
the British Navy in the event De
Gaulle succeeds in his present
Vaccinations. They are afraid
that once more political color
will prevail over military merit.
The row which has been going
on in Algiers almost from the
very first day the great recon-
ciliation" began to be discussed
is likely to undermine the morale
of the French Army. 1t is true
that for the time being there are
only relatively few French troops
ready for action; they don't have
the necessary equipment. But we
had expected to provide Giraud
with enough war material to or
ganize at least IL and possibly IS
modern divisions. The men are
splendid fighters; their officers
excellent men. But the best
fighter is of little use If morale is
low.
Giraud Trusted Here.
Under these circumstances,
there is serious question
whether our policy of rearming
the French on the scale as We
had intended will prove wise II
the political squabbles in Africa
don't end in the very near future.
Already there has been a certain
slowing down in our shipments
to the French troops in Africa.
We trust Giraud because he is a
thorough soldier who has no po-
litical ambitions and has proved
an excellent and loyal friend.
The same thing, however, can
not be said Of De Gaulle. We did
not fail to recognize his value
when he first started his move
ment and proved it by granting
his lease-lend soon thereafter.
But the fact that we could not
give him political recognition
apparently has set him against
this country. In many of his
public and private declarations
he has shown his dislike, which
was frequently approaching con-
tempt. for this country.
He has not hesitated to attack
or inspire attacks, through his
organizations in the United
States, against some of our lead
ers-mostly through the voice of
American citizens who took up
his cause because Of his alleged
unadulterated allegiance to de-
mocracy.

tage of this as we could. The
lack of a clear policy concerning
postwar Germany; the Van Sit
taritism which is growing. among
the United Nations, taking the
form of open discussion advocat-
ing the dismemberment of Ger
many, its de-industrialization,
subjection for years to foreign
rule, and, in general, unilateral
treatment, no matter what gov
ernment might succeed the pres
ent one, all initiate against effec-
tive political warfare. For it is
obvious that even the most anti
Nazi and discouraged German
will fight to the last ditch against
such program.
The basis of Van Sittaritism is
that the German nation is one
solid bloc of Hitlerites; that Hit
lerism represents Germany's
most historic and authentic ten
denotes; that the German people
as nation are incorrigible; and
that no matter what the circum-
stances, or what the organization
OF the world. they have read
themselves forever outside the
comfy Of nations and must be
permanently controlled.
Opposes Van Sittaritism.
This is an historical and theo-
retical view of Germany which I
do not share. 1t seems to be my
fate to be perenniallv unpopular
on the question of Germany: to
have been first accused of emo
tional exaggeration about the
Nazis. and now to be accused of
too much tolerance Of the Ger
man people.
But II I was right about the
horror and danger of Naziism
it was because l analyzed NaN-
ism, not because I analyzed the
German mind. as such. Those
who interpreted FaSciSm as
popularity of certain national
mentalitieS rather than as
coalition of social forces, latent
i'll all countries, and called into
play under certain circum-
stances. have been proved wrong.
Even the German opposition to
Hitler was wrong about this.
In the early days of Hitler's
movement, the German demo-
Gratis laughed It to Scorn with
the slogan, Germans are not
Italians"
But apart from the theoret-
ical merits of arguments pro
and con the German people,
what are the actual facts about
the unity Of all the Germans in

unity. lnOSc correspondents
closer to Germany report seri-
GUS riffs. That has been true
of most American correspondents
who reported from Germany up
to the time we entered the war
Louis Lochner and Howard
Smith are notable examples.
Now reports of riffs are coming
from Berne and Stockholm.
In analyzing the reports which
have come in during the past
two weeks. we must differentiate
between two sets of symptoms
OF disintegration. which s<e
usually Jumped together.
The one set or symptoms are
of war weariness, physical mis-
cry of no political genesis, dis
organization caused by air
bombardments, and general
malaise to be expected in any
country that has endured four
years of so hard a war. These
symptoms are important but
they do not threaten the Nazi
regime, as such.
But beside this we have new
evidence Of theological and
political opposition rising In
Germany.
On the German radio last
week, Gauleiter Sauckel, who is
Commissioner Of Manpower.
made a heavy attack against the
German "inte.lectuals," who, as
he puts it, were once under Jew
lsh influence and have not
changed even after the extinc-
ton OF the Jews. This is Nazi

inclined people. He spoke of

for constantly discovering "a
good word to De spoken for the
other side, and spreading news
and rumors against the Nazis."
And for months Goebbels has
been conducting an energetic
propaganda campaign against
this same "objectivity."
Churches Steadfast.
Word has also gotten out re-
garding the attitude of the Ger.
man churches. Through religious
channels We learn that the Ger.
man churches are already plan-
nlng methods of co-opera ton
with religious forces in other
countries to build a lasting peace
after the war. 1t is revealed that
the church has never ceased its
protests against the persecution
OF the Jews and the degradation
OF the law courts by the Nazis.
The church also claims to have
protected large parts of the
youth against intoxication bv
Nazi theology. And this is borne
out by a report by Drew Middle
ton from North Africa. who saws
that Hitler is not the idol of the
younger German soldiers.
Furthermore, the execution of
Young people by the Gestapo in
Germany is on the increase, ac-
cording to reports reaching us
from various nearby neutral
sources, This growing revulsion
OF precisely that generation
which the democracies have held
TO be totally lost is so interesting
that it needs some further
analysis.
