SOME MORE VIRILE

Some nations and peoples, like
some individuals, are more vlrlle
than others. Some more hard
working. intelligent. inventive, in
dustrious. ambitious, than others.
Some countries have an upward
curve in their birthrate. some are
static, again others on the decline.
In the final scientific analysis II
viii be found that this law of the
growth and decline of nations. is
fundamentally one of the chief
if not the major cause of wars.
The dictators of the peace of
and by force to come and of the
Roosevelt world organization now
in the making shy off from touch
ing or mentioning that law and
that problem. as we in this coun-
try close our eyes 10 any shy away

WHAT ABOUT AFRICA

Nothing has been said about the
great African continent, vast,
primitive. largely undeveloped,
Sparsely populated
That continent is in the possess
sion or control of Britain, France.
Belgium. Portugal, with a small
silver belonging TO Spain. Not
one Of those countries has a grow
ing population. England is almost
static, France on the declining
side. The fortunes of war have
brought new territory to Britain.
The Italian colonies OF North
Africa, Tripolitania and eyre
naica and Eritrea on the Red Sea
have passed into British posses
sion.
The Italians have been ouSted
from AbySsinia. Emperor Halle
SelaSSie reSeated on his throne
under the over-lordship of Britain.
COLONIES FOR BRITAIN
In the first world war Germany
lost 10 Britain her colonies in
southwest Africa and the vast
area of German Tanganyika in
East Africa, much larger than the
state of Texas. Britain now has
uninterrupted control for some
1000 miles from Alexandria and
Port Said on the Mediterranean
to Capetown at the southern eX-

1t appears that under the RooSe-
welt league of preserving peace by

that the American people stake

Dewey catches Mr.. Thomas.
up in the next few weeks. the only
vote he will get is the convinced
anti Roosevelt vote" Mr.. Thomas
told q press conference in the VIII
lard Hotel.
He predicted the Socialist party
would receive "a big vote" in No.
vember and tnat by that time the
Socialist ballot would be carried On
26 to 80 State ballots.
Hits Major Parties.
Declaring that both the Republi-
cans and Democrats are playing
around with a sugar-coated type of
conscription," the Socialist leader
added:
II am not surprised that q Con-
gress in which both parties are
making such q mess Of reconversion
legislation should be contemplating
postwar conscription as soon As the
election is over. The business OF
waiting until after election is char
acteristic of the studied old party
evasion Of issues"
Touching on the platforms Of the
two major parties, Mr.. Thomas de-
clared that "they have given us
practically interchangeable political
platforms-and thus far Mr.. Dewey's
generalities have given us nothing
to guide the people to a significant
mandate at the next election"
Finds Public Confused.
Mr.. Thomas said he found the
people confused and bewildered,"
adding "they want peace and they
fear it because of probable unem-
ployment"
He described the Dumbarton Oaks
security talks as simply "underwrit-
ing the status quo" and leading to a
triple alliance" This alliance, he
charged, will mean the eventual
"Balkanization of Europe" with an
other world war only matter Of
years.
Mr.. Thomas disclosed he had
wired Secretary of State Hull ut the
time of the talks between John
Foster Dulles. Gov. Dewey's foreign
adviser, and the Secretary that they
were good politics but bad states
manship."
I'VE Socialists alone are discussing
issues in concrete terms. The rest
Of America has pretty nearly boiled
the issue down to for or against
Roosevelt. We Socialists believe
that men are important, but prin-
ciples, program and the right sort Of
political organization are more i'm
portant," he said.
Net Too Late.
1t is not too late, he added, to win |
the peace and plan for the conquest
Of poverty, but the time Is later than
most Americans think.
Mr.. Thomas, who starts another |
speaking tour next week. said he will |
make his recording Sunday OF = 1
speech which will be transcribed to
men overseas. He commented that
the War Department had been very
fair In alloting time for his party.
