Communications
Hitler Won Through Fear.
To the Editor:
England and France, the so-called
democracies, havo not only yielded
to Hitler's demands but have helped
him greatly In his rape of their war
baby, Chechoslovakia, why tildn't
they oppose him In the violation of
their child Instead of helping him?
Your "column left" Informs It was
fear of the Rome-Berlin combina
tion being overwhelmingly powerful
In the air. This, you hold, "Is at
least the first logical explanation of
what has occurred In the past week
or tea days." But to ths humble
undersigned tt la "not so hot" It'a
superficial. And you dismiss, aa ao
much nonsense, the view that M.
Daladter and the Hon. Chamberlain
"were prejudiced In Germany's favor."
They were. That Is certain. These
gentlemen "gave In" to Hitler be
cause It they did not yield they fear
ed he would start a world war which
would end In revolution and put an
end to capitalism. This la the Mos
cow view and, It Is believed, much
nearer the truth than the opinion
expressed In "column left" by Alsop
and Klntner In today's Issue of the
Mall Tribune.
The, dictators have the capitalist
democracies over a barrel. Do what
we say. else -we shall start a world
revolution." will no doubt be their
threat from now on. They will get
what they want and when they want
It, and world capitalism win "come
through," however painfully. Soon
they will demand a "loan" to save
themselves from financial and eco
nomic collapse and they will get It
a gift pure and simple. The de
bacle could hsve been avoided, It
Is believed, had a firm stand been
taken Instead of the one of betrayal.
Hitler might have ordered his armies
to march, but the high command
would not have carried It out. Sui
cide la not to Its liking, however
"glorious."
Daladter and Chamberlain "muffed
It." They proved to be no match for
Hitler and Mussolini. Perhaps the
end of this la not yet. There may
be more to come and plenty. The
people may yet awaken to a realisa
tion of what Is taking place before
It Is too late. Here la hoping.

Has No Use for Hoover.
To the Editor:
A few nights ago I listened to Mr.
Hoover's speech from Kansas City.
He called our president anything but
a gentleman In his exercise ot free
speech, which he accused P. D. R. ot
depriving us of.
I could not help but think, while
Mr. Hoover was comparing some of
P. D. R.'s actions with thon of Oeorge
ni, of Hoover's expression In 1833,
that Itinerant working people should
be denied a vote. Somewhat Oeorge
Thlrdlsh Itself, I would say. "Taxa
tion without ropresentstlon."
And another New Deal action was
compared to some ot Hitler's. I also
think back to the time when Mr.
Hoover, while president, ordered out
the mllltla to disperse World war
veterans wno were gathered In Wash
ington to ask for their bonus. There
was life lost and much bodily Injury.
I wouldn't compare that with Hlt-
ler'a etuif. I think tt la mora like
Ivan the Terrible, you know, when
the Jews wera gathered In St. Peters
burg to present a petition, and dis
persed by Cossacks.
Hoover either has no sense of hu
mor or has no sense of the ridiculous.
When Roosevelt best him It was
by the biggest majority In history,
and that was because wa were tired
of "business being let alone by the
government," and the banks going
broke by the hundreds, people going
hungry because there were millions
of bushels of wheat being held by
speculators for higher prices, people
ragged because of thousands of bales
of cotton held for higher prices, the
hobo Jungles filled with men and
women, and bablea wera being born
in the Jungles because the parents
had no homes.
There was no organized relief.
"Prosperity waa Juat around some
corner."
Every street corner waa crowded
with unemployed men. There was
no WPA then, but he has the brazen
Impudence now to stand up and say
that any WPA worker should be fined
and Imprisoned If he spesks aloud
his political views.
I hope they nominate Hoover for
president In 1940; he'd mske It a
cinch for anyone on the Democratic
ticket. I think It will be a cinch
anyway If some good New Dealer
gets the Democratic nomination.
