Dec. 21 (U.R The forces of "primitive savergy have been unloosened upon the world," former President Herbert Hoover said last night at a "Help tor Fin land" mass meeting under spon sorship of the Finnish Relief Fund, Inc., of which he is director. Hoover, whose ornanitation al- renrtv has fnhtaH 11 nn nriA tn KMn-I land, said the fund was "cooper ating with the American Red Cross and urged support or Its 'bene ficent service.' " The Red Cross informed him, he told a crowd at Madison Square Garden, "they would be glad to supply medicine and hospital sup plies, they could collect garments through their chapters, but the responsibilities - for - the greater burden of general relief measures were beyond their field." "At the moment," Hoover said, "there Is no actual shortage of food In Finland. But the thous ands of destitute need funds to buy it. They need shelter. They need bedding. The sea-blockade and the destruction of their com merce will bring famine later on." The president baa said We have a rendezvous with destiny. We seem to be on our way toward a rendezvous with despair. Thom as E. Dewey, launching his cam paign In Minneapolis for GOP presidential nomination.

There is a Spartan hardness and courage In this code, which vules that the Individual sustain honor with death when misfortune has overtaken him. There are ton countries lu which this still per sists, one other notable example being Japan where men commit harl-karl for the honor of their Mikado. The badge of InltlaUon Into this Prussian code la the sabro soar across the face a livid mark which you see most officers wear ing eveu today when dueling Is not so prevalent as It used to be. That scarce an advertisement to the world that the wearer can "take It" when It comes to endur ing physical hurt. I saw much of the working of this codo at the front during the World war. I believe I may have mentioned in this column the epic of the Third Prussian Guard at one of the battles of Lens, In France. The Germans had been driven from their trenches In this sector by the British and repeated coua ter attacks failed to disclose the enemy. An example was folt necessary to raise tho moralo of the German troops. The German command called on a contingent of guardsmen, the kaiser's troops. With shoulders back and eyes front they marched four abreast straight Into the British machine-guns, to be mowed down In rows. Then their com rades attacked, and recaptured the trenches. Perhaps It was this characteris tic which led the small boy. Adolf Hitler, to dream of the day when he should see a great German con- ' CHRISTMAS GIFT to You!
