Schuschnigg Mistaken

DR.. Kurt Schuschnigg, who spent seven years
as prisoner of the Germans, after he defied
Adolf Hitler while he was the last chancellor
of free Austria, says the German people hate
war and were forced into this conflict by Adolf
Hitler
In United Press copyrighted article from
Capri, Ann Stringer quotes him as saying:
Il am convinced that the great majority
- the German people hated war; l am con.
WINGED they had no choice Thousands and thou
sands of Germans were in concentration camps
and thousands and thousands were hanged or
otherwise killed.
Il believe Hitler caused the war and Hitler
alone believe it was through Hitler, both as
a personality and as an exaggeration of the
Prussian military tradition that came before
him, that nazism flourished and the war came.
The Star agrees with Doctor Schuschnigg'e
declaration that Hitler started the war; but
tai es exception to his further statement that
the German people hate war. They have been
the chief disturbers of Europe's peace for two
thousand years.
II there was any genuine hate of war in
'AANAA AACoAto LIey WOllu HOC nave sent their
men into battle time after time If they had
been true apostles of peace they would never
have allowed Hitler to gain full power in the
Helch they would have hamstrung the High
Command after World War and seen through
the scheme by which it used Hitler to rouse
them for another world conflict
The herd instinct is the outstanding charac-
terlstic of the German people. AS often as a
leader has arisen in their midst to make
them false promises of conquest the German
masses have followed him blindly, not once
or twice but for centuries.
1t is their fault that Hitler could fill concen.
tration camps with Nazi opponents and con-
Duct blood purges. So many of them, accepted
his promise of world conquest that the small
percentage remaining lost all power of resist
ance.

Truman and Stassin

The forecast is made by Richard L. Strout
in the Christian Science Monitor that Presi-
dent Truman will seek the democratic nomi-
nation for the presidency in 1948, and is do
ing so ION the basis Of an appeal to the
big liberal mass of northern city jewellers
who consistently supported President Roose-
velt.''
In support of his argument Mr.. Strout notes
Mr.. Truman has supported Mr.. Roosevelt S
foreign policy, including the Breton Woods
agreement, the Tariff act, Drnbarton Oaks,
the San Francisco conference, the Roosevelt
social legislation, and has urged executive re-
organization and better federal administration
while strengthening his Cabinet. Hes cites 9TH

Editorial Comment
ANIMALS IN POLITICS,

There is STILL it seems, one unashamed fas.
cist IN Rome, for it has been reported that
the bear in the zoo was still giving the fascist
salute. Animals as politicians have their an
ecdotage, ranging from the bulldogs draped
in Union Jacks who do duty so often for
conservative candidates in parliamentary
elections to the horse described by traveller
in America some time ago as having fallen
dead in city street. When the traveller next
passed that way the horse was still there.
but opportunity had not been wasted, for it's
body was plastered with election posters. The
eagle OF Prince Louis Napoleon does not
seem to have been very useful to him in his
attempts to seize power. One of the most cele-
brated of dog politicians was Dumas's Pi.
stach, the dog of M. de Beaufort in the
prison of Vincennes. The dog would jump for
the, king and queen, but turned back when
asked to jump for Mazarin. But Pistache like
other opponents to totaitarian ministers. had
but short life. The training of animals to
express various emotions has covered a wide
field, and among those which have been men,
toned are jackals, monkeys, tigers, lions.

AS the author, who is on the

are some omissions, such as de.
tails about V-weapons and about
the aerial assault on Germany.
The book undoubtedly would
have been improved by more in.

bomber raids which paved the
way to victory; and also by a few
area maps on larger scale than
the end papers.

WASHINGTON CALLING s
by MI.M
MARQUIS CH1LDS 1w....3

WASHINGTON - Justice Robert
H. jackson, chief prosecutor of
Axis war criminals for the Unit
ed States, has performed a valu-
able service in stating clearly and
forcefully what the policy of this
government will be in the forth
coming trials.
There were two courses open to
the Western Allies. We could hold
trials which would then, of neces-
sity, be real trials and not mere
ly legal gloss for revenge which
we intended to take in any event
Or, we could shoot out of hand a
large number Of known offenders.
A good argument could be made
for the second course. Many il
fluential Britishers took this line.
1t was one reason why no prose
cutor was named by the Church
i'll government until jackson went
to London.
But a decision has been taken
in favor of trials. That means an
enormous work of preparation of
evidence, complicated as Jackson
pointed out, by language difficult
ties.
1t does not mean, however,
quibbling legalism. The statement
given out by the White House
shows very broad approach to
the whole problem. Concisely and
clearly, Jackson traces the growth
of the concept that war-aggres-
sive warts in itself illegal.
In many ways, this is precedent
breaking. If that can be estab.
lished, during the course of the
trials, then we shall have taken
a definite step forward in keep
ing the peace of the world. AS
Justice Jackson sand:
1--WE stand at one of those rare
moments when the thought and in.
stitutions and habits of the world
have been shaken by the impact
of world war on the lives of count
less millions. Such occasions rare
ly come, and quickly pass We are
put, under heavy responsibility
to see that our behavior during
this unsettled period will direct the
worlds thought towards a firmer
enforcement of the laws of inter-
national conduct, so as to make
war less attractive to those who
have governments and the desti-
MES of peoples in their power :"
| Jackson intends to establish the
guilt of groups of Nazis. He real
ICES the hopelessness of individual
trials for thousands of Germans.
The groundwork Of the case, as
he put it, must be the authentic
history of what we are convinced
was a grand, concerted pattern to
incite and commit the aggressions
and a RI les which have
shocked the world" Once the
group guilt is established, it will
be up to individual members Of
these organizations to prove they
joined under duress.
According to War department
files, the Gestapo had at it's height
10000 officials. The German Ger
era1 Staff, which is to be brought
to trial, had 5000 officers and re.
sponsible clerks.
