APPI.EOATE FIESTA
A bunch of cttlaens gathered at
Hermy Offenbacher'a Sunday, and
helped him dedicate his new bridge
across the Applegats. The structure
takes the place of a twinging bridge,
which squeamish guests alwnya tack
led as If he was going over Nlagnra
Falls In a sauerkraut barrel. Before
the dedicatory exercises, the aaaem
bled persona partook freely of fried
chicken, prepared under the skillful
eye snd hand of the host, who as
a chicken fryer has no peer, here
abouts or tn the state of Maryland.
All hands ate as if they never sto
fried chicken before and never would
again.
Sheriff 8yd I. Brown was present
wearing his campaign hat and smile.
The aherlff Invoked his pet domestic
science theory. He washed the pots
and pans, and put them awny, when
used. The sheriff stated for 37 years,
he had vainly endeavored to havo
this efficiency practiced In his own
kitchen. The two cooks managed to
mens up the pots and pane as fast
as the limb of the law could wnsh
them.
Constable Nick Young, another
guest before the feeding, persistently
Insisted he was going to wuh the
dishes. Afterward, before he could
suenk off, he had to wnsh the dishes.
The constable, without trying to be
funny, declared he had no attach
ment for the Job.
everybody complimented Her my

and the tenderness of his chicken,
but It remained for Col. Tou Velle

How Crazy Is Hitler?
TboM whom th. gods would destroy, they first make mid.
Thit column hm applied the above to Hitler and Fascist
Germany for many months past. "The man is crazy, his fol
lowers are shell-shocked, the essential problem presented in
Central Europe is not political or military, but psycopathic,
etc., etc." i
Considerable truth to that. But as the drama of terror
unfolds, it becomes increasingly clear that while the madness
charge is true, it isn't the WHOLE truth. For just as a sur
prising shrewdness and cunning often accompanies an unbal
anced mind so there, is method in this Hitler madness, a
diabolical, and perhaps even an effective, method.
We refer to the Jewish problem, of course.
pOR a government like i Hitler's, or any other absolute
Dictatorship must have two things to endure:
1. Enough money to pay its bills.
2. A people, or at least a majority of the people, in a
oonstant state of fear, of agitation, of apprehension.
No government, unable to pay its way, can stand for long.
In this day and age no people free from fear, that is a
contented, happy, at-pcace-with-the-world people will long
tolerate the tremendous sacrifices a dictatorship demands.
Personal liberty, freedom of thought and action, are too univer
sally cherished by human kind everywhere, in this 20th century.
OUT when they ARE kept in a state of fear, fear of their
" lives, their national existence, fear of extinction, fear of
enemies within or without, they ARE willing to surrender
their liberties for the sake of their security, for the sake of
self-preservation, but only as long as they are CONVINCED
their security is in danger.
SO we have the Jewish problem made to order for Dcr
Feuhrer'g purposes. From the first, he has made the Jews
a scapegoat for the loss of the World war, the Jews betrayed
the Fatherland, sold out to the Allies, are a menace within
to national rehabilitation, or any return to self-respect and
power.
Not a day has passed, since bis accession to power, that this
Jew-baiting, Jew-hating propaganda has not gone on its, cruel,
malevolent destructive way, and as above noted with a defi
nite purpose from the standpoint of effective Fascist statecraft.
Dictatorship to endure must have a constant peril, jf Jews
had not been available, some other race would have been se
lected or some other monace would have been created.
A ND racially the Germans had in it millions of Jews a
problem, which, human nature boing what it is, could
be made a burning issue, a national menace, at any time. This
was done the moment Hitler came to power.
Moreover, Germany was overcrowdod, had a serious unem
ployment problem and was bankrupt, so could any dictator
wish a sweeter set-up.
With the driving out of the feared and hated Jews not only
would the essential burning issue be created but there would
at once be businesses to take over; paying jobs to fill, and
last but not least, the appropriation of millions o dollars irorth
of Jewish property, to fill tho empty coffers of the government.
QO, perhaps Adolph Hitler isn't so crazy after all, or if so
only in tho sense that no human being, without any moral
sense whatever can be regarded as entirely sane.
At any rate the more one learns of Hitler and Germany
under his direction, the more clearly the fact appears, that
from the standpoint of Fascist
a maniac at large, as a Dictator,
merely running true to form!
In short from the standpoint of national behaviour in a
civilized world, or rational government, a dictator to be suc
cessful, must be a trifle insane.

vitamin deficiency, especially defic

much such vitamin deficiency, which

NEW YORK To Mary With Love;
People speak of "a flood of memo
ries." I know what that means now.
I was mt nnding under the clock In
the Blltmore to
day, which used
to be a famous
meeting place tn
the old days, and
it all came back.
It seemed for a
moment as If It j
were exactly aa .
it had been or j
that dim 6atur- :
day of the mid- :
die 1920's, when
college boys wore
coonskin coats,
and everybody
was drinking
bathtub gin. and girls from every
where came into New York on Satur
day afternoons for the tea dansants.
The same clock waa there and the
same walls. But the faces were
different. I remember on that day
that everybody was speaking of Red
Grange, and CoollV;o was president,
and the orchestra kept coming back
to "Tea For Two." which was new,
and Dartmouth waa still undefeated,
and It was November.
I had come there from the frater
nity clubs at 38th and Madison,
where I waa spending the night, and
I couldn't get over the excitement
of meeting F. Scott Fltrgerald. who
had been In the lobby when I regis
tered. I had a bottle of gin wrapped
up in a newspaper and oa I placed
It on the desk a young man with
a gny sort of wnat-thc-hell manner
came in. He spoke to everybody ana
pretty soon he came over and picked
up the bottle that was heavily
wrapped In a copy of the New York
Times. "Ilmmmin," he said, sniffing
It, "gin." And then he put It down
and walked awny, and for a moment
t thought he was a detective and
that he was going to arrest me for
breaklnn the law.
But when he was gone I asked the
clerk. "Who was that?" And he told
me. "F. Scott Fitzgerald ' And I was

QUESTIONS A ANSWERS
, Insulated
My father and I have an argu
ment, and we hope you will settle it.
Father says it Is dangerous, and I
say It Is harmless for one with, ear
ache to go out In the sunshine on
a cold day for a while, with his ear
stuffed with cotton. J. R.
Anawer Father loses. I think it
would be better for one with earache
to take the cotton or other stuffing
out of the ear before he goes out.
In fact such stuffing should not be
kept In the ear, except to absorb
discharge if the ear is running, and
theb It must be changed often
enough to avoid Interfering with
drainage or proper ventilation. It Is
usually a mistake and harmful to
keep the ear plugged. Let the air
exert Its natural healing action.
Gentlemen Only
It would be of supreme Interest
to your readers afflicted with en
larged prostate to obtain, through
your column or by mall, the experi
ence of some who have taken -your
advice and submitted to operation.
L. A. f;
Answer I have a monograph on
the subject of Prostatic Obstruction
which any gentleman may have If
he aska for it and enclose a stamped
envelope bearing his address. It Is
human nature to forget ltf say no
mora about it, when you have been
cured of anything.

yet wait for the Woman's National
Press club luncheon in Washington,
D. C. to hear and meet Mary Pick
ford. From her subject, we expected
to hear a peace-at-any-prtce talk,
and we got a "Spirit of ft Liberty
Loan" patriotic appea for Interna
tional Justice, an attack on 'Hitler
as the "Madman of Europe" ("Mad
as a March hare, that fellow," said
Mary), and a demand for adequate
preparedness, especially In the air,
and heavy taxation to foot the nec
essary bills.
One witty gal and they are legion
In this elutj had hoped she would
talk on 'love and lotions," Mary be
ing in the cosmetics business now
but we noticed the many questions
following the address were prepon
derantly thoughtful and purposeful.
Miss Plckford told of a hotel man
ager in Germany sadly remarking
that It was good to see her and
her niece dressed in simple dinner
gowns, as no one ever dressed for
dinner in Germany any more; and
of a California frtend. wife of a Ger-.
man. who said she would give the
world to get away, 'but that they
would not be allowed sufficient
money to get away. Miss Plckford
found one man afraid to talk to
them when he found they had about
80 marks in money fearing he would
be Jailed along with them. She said
no use selling them United Artist
pictures which they didn't like any
way, becauso the money could not
be taken out of Germany.
FRIENDS of ours who fl.ro relatives

Whiting Is a number of years his
senior, but reports have it they are
Ideally happy, that she Is his con
stant traveling companion, prompter,
and Inspiration. Aleo that she Is

young appearing. Likewise, ' Mary
Plckford, now wife of young "Buddy"
Rogers, Is as petite, pretty and golden
haired as when "America's Sweet
heart." and, apparently, ageless. In
sisting that 'time Is only the noise
the clock mskes, nothing more.' (Our
one comfort was that she DID use
glasses to read !) she wore a stun
ning black velvet ault trimmed with
sable and a smart, small black hat
perched on the right eyebrow.
At the guest table to greet Miss

Tlnced by long eiperlence that the
people are fundamentally Isolation
ist, the high career men of the de
partment advocated great restraint
in dealing with the fascist nations.
Empty gestures of doflance or dis
approval, however brutal the fascist
provocation, were always opposed by
the career men. As a consequence,
liberal critics, who have the unpleas
ant trait of suspecting the motives
of their opponents, have called the
career men "pro-fascist."
Nothing oould be more significant,
therefore, than the sharp alteration
of opinion among the career men.

Is a case In point.
Ill-lnformea persons, who think
this country can be the world's moral

other hand, thoroughly understand
that the presidents words were a
step toward intervention abroad.
They see the chance that Ambassador
Wilson and Ambassador Dleckhofr,
now both homeward bound, may
never return to their respective posts.
They know the meaning of c pos
sible break In diplomatic relations.
And they approve.
Opinion among the career men has j
changed for a simple reason. Before
Munich, they and everyone else In !
the state department clearly foresaw
that economic conflict with Germany
was Inevitable. But they expected the i
conflict to end there, because, liko
everyone else, they thought that the ,
democratic nations of Europe were '
a first line of American defense. If I
Germany goes too far, they thought, ,
she will have to fight England; Eng
land will win. perhsps with some
assistance from us toward the close
of the struggle, and ( that will vir
tually let us out.
Munich's meaning, ss It has fin
ally been digested, Is that the sup
posed first line of defense Just Isn't
there. There are certain possibilities,
to be sure. The will and the power
to resist may be stronger In Great
Britain than It now seems. A va3t
eastern European empire has already
been resigned to Germany, but haJf
the empire remains to be conquered,
and perhaps Germany will stumble
in her march to the cast. The pro
cess of subduing their new empires
may also be too much for tho Ger
man allies, Italy, and, even more
likely, Japan.
But these are only possibilities.
Meanwhile, besides the public dif
ference on the Jewish question, this
country Is already Involved In a bit
ter dispute with Germany over Bra
zilian trade. The prospect Is for con
stantly worsening relations. And the
United States must be prepared for
the worst. One way of preparing for
the worst- strengthening potential
friends abroad Is repeal of the
Spanish embargo and the mandatory
clauses of the neutrality act. The
state department Is likely to test
the country's capacity for realistic
thinking by asking for one or both
of these when congress convenes.
