The only objection raised to date involves Morgenthan's dec laration that any tax reductions must be made up In some other direction in the interest of badspt-balancins, but that objection comes with poor grace from any congressman who voted for the bis: farm benefit bill. - ' - " To sum it all up; it seems too good to be true, and the chances are that it is. . .. . - : : Pleasant, the Dlctaresaue negress I Magazine.'.1 who held sway ' over a part of J (Concluded tomorrow.) xauc wzsmssDAT isso xc 8:30 MHhmaa'a SerenatU 7 :30 New a 7:45 Variety 8:00 Moraine MediUtiont 8:15 Hea of Bett 8 :45 News :O0 Paator'a Cell 8:15 Barcaia a Minute 9:80 HiU and Encore 10:00 Mutual Show 10:15 Kew 10:80 Morning Kafaiine 10:45 Women in the News 11:00 Vocal Varieties 11:15 Troe Story Drama 11:80 Willamette Cbapel 11:45 Valne Parade 12:15 News 12:30 Hillbilly Serenade 12 :45 Moaieal .

Until Hitler came Into power ln 1933 La had to wor tor a llvinx, as did otht. nasi partisans and asetJs, and it is not remarkable' that-ho aravr- tated toward the Ford works The natis had erect hopes of Mr. Ford, chiefly based upon the "Dearborn . Independent" articles. But after Hltle came to power there was a treat contest in this country as to who, among the old Bolsheviks of the true and original n a s I s, should be heir to tbe happy bunting around of the United States. Ia their enthusiasm egregious mis takes were made; the policies of the nail-intern, back home, were shifted from time to time. And over here some heads rolled ia the sand. But Kohn survived the purges. e Meanwhile he hrd become an American citizen the better to eat us with, my dear and had mapped oat his campaign in harmony with the new policy of the nazis, which was to pose as simon-pure Americans ("Ameri ca Is a republic and not a de mcracy") and n saviors of the Constitution from the new deal, organized labor (especially the C I. 0.), the liberals, the more progressive republicans and to make alliances, wherever prac tical or strategically wise, with the perennial crackpots who have a desire to murder Jews. He and his associates begin work on the German-Americans (without too notable success. thanks to the rood sense, loyalty ana patriotism ot the overwhelm ing mass of German-Americans and to tbe hard-Leadedness of men like Victor Bidder, of the "Staats-Zeitung"). The "Weck- rul and Beobachier,", a Hitler organ for propaganda, was founded In New York. Kuhn's organizations gave their blessing and support to all movements which were fighting communism, along with the nasi definition of what communism is: Democ racy; anything of even faintly uoerai tinge, ana including any one who is opposed to nazism or nas Jewish blood. Here, as in Germany, he and his associates introduced the storm troop organization Ord nungs Dlenst instead ot Sturm Abteilung, O. D. instead of S. A. and the strong-arm method of policing meetings Here, as In nazl Germany, the central and main organization. i trerman-American Bund, has sev era.1 subsidiary organizations, one being the Deutscher Konsum verband (German Consumers' Association), whose object is to throw the organized nasi buy ing power to nasi members, and to make an economic boycott against all an tl -nazis and all American citizens of Jewish blood. This weapon, which is pow erful, and which ought to be se riously considered, the instru ment of the organized economic boycott against political oppon ents, is supplemented by sland erous whispering campaigns, or ranised letter-writing campaigns to all newspapers taking an antl- Hitler stand, public attacks on individuals bordering on criminal libel, and terroristic threats, mostly in the form of anony mous letters. - Our heroes resurrected George Washing to a and Benjamin Franklin as their . patron saints and preached anti-Semit'sm un der Washington's picture, care tally omitting all mention ' of Washington's letter te the He brew congregation it Newport, with Its memorable description ot onr Constitution a. one which "gives to bigotry no sanction and to persecution no encourage ment," and spreadin.. abroad an anti-Semitic quotation from Franklin which' every Fan kiln scholar of repute has denounced i a forgery. v - -:... - 3t They organised . bund camps and youth movements, along the exact pattern of th German or- I ganl ration, displayed the swas tika, no longer as the German emblem bat as the "world-wide symbol of all gentile'' and practiced the nazl salute as thi g.eeting tor all "white' Ameri cans. When they found Oat- spoken opponents among - con servative, undeniably white aad even gentile i Americans they quickly turned them inU jews. and always refer to them as such. This columnist, for In stance, U Mrs. Levy la the nasi press. ---- v , Most of these activities, in this tolerant country, are not prose cutable. . -.; v e , Bat the' type ot ' mind that gravltatea te eoaspiracls to an deralae society and '.elcomes the use of threats, t-lackmall aad lies to promote its ends usually has ' psychopathic " feature : which encourage contempt for all law Thousands of revolu.'oniats, pos ing as "Idealists,, and ven be lieving it, are "only "erasta" criminala." They ar, like maay criminals, ' mea and women with a -- grndga against 1L v and - frus trated egos, bordeMla a paranoi ac, who associate their personal grievances and disappointment: jteqi Joj meqi ioidxe ot moq own ends. Dostoevsky has described them magnificently in his novels. No revolution of society has been accomplished wlthct the aid of gangsters, '.nd the vronpect not only of keeping out of ail. but getting, eventually, a medal for gangstering, is extremely ap pealing. If the German republic had conducted a thoroughgoing in vestigation into the personal affairs of the men arouid Hit ler and into the sources of his early funds a lot oi the. might be sitting in Jail lnxtead of sitting ln power, hitler himself had to liquidate a lot of his old Bolsheviks when they got ob- stieperous a little later, and some of them went the way of all flesh only because th;y knew too much. Why- the German Republic did not do so Is another story, and not to tbe credit ot the Uerman Republic. Its olficials. for in stance, must have --own that funds of the army were being diverted to an anti-republican newspaper. But the army, un der the republic, had a life o its own. And Stalin was t. bank rob ber-, as well as a. revolutionist. The type ot mind that win con template a holdup for a cause may also contemplate It for the gang. If the latter is better suit ed to the times. All students of criminal psychology know that many common criminals regard themselves as indlvldua. aveng ers ot social injustice. The rich ones justify law breaking by the good deeds performed with their spoils. Those who operate from the lower depths are. in their minds, merely redistributing wealth. a A man like Mr. Deatherage. of the White Camellias, has m hesitation in testifying that he has murder in his soul. He pre dicts, with obvious approval, even relish, a "wave of suicides." and looks forward to a "ram page" of violence, even while he insists that he m u s t take a "Christian" oath. Too timlc and inhibited to undertake a gang warfare against well-to-do Jews, he would gladly participate in a state undertaking for the same end. a e There is, therefore, poetic justice in tbe idea that Herr Kuhn should be indicted not as an agent of international nazi dom or for organizing boycotts against his fellow citizens or fo. disseminating wholesale libels against racial groups, who, un der our libel laws, have no op portunity for recourse" to law, but as an ordinary Iwindlei and, like Al Capone, an evader of the Income tax. Our unfortunate experience ln having to deal with gangsters seems to suggest the best means we have for dealing with groups who want to destroy the social . order. The police ot this de mocracy (and republic) will pro tect their meetings while, at the some time, examining their ac counts. Copyright, 19S9, New York Tri bune, Inc.
