L'JTTT'TTI Writer Reviews Hess Incident As Blow to Morale By DEWITT MacKENZIE , Call Rudolf Hess' amazing flight to Scotland moon-madness or the act of a sane man fleeing from the wrath of a government divided against itself, the fact still rcmuins that it represents a major defeat for Germany. This Is true even if we con sider the fanciful possibility that the nazi deputy was sent to Britain as a Trojan horse (or a "Trojan Hess," as one English punster called him). The scheme has boomcrangc-d already. Were fortune to give Herr Hit ler a chance to exchange his much sung Balkan conquest for cancellation of the Hess adven ture, it isn't unlikely that the fuehrer would jump at the deal. That's how much of a disaster he has suffered. The longer the world rolls the talc under its tongue, the more evident it becomes that the repercussion at home and abroad is great and growing. Germany's friends can scarcely escape the fear that there may indeed be dissension among the nazi leaders. The people of the fatherland are shocked and gravly concerned. Allied morale has skyrocketed. German recognition of the gravity of position is evident in Hitler's summoning of all the nazi party leaders for confer ence last week. It was a secret session and the only public word was that the group gave "an impressive demonstration of de termined will for victory." One can only surmise that the business of this important con clave related largely to the home position. Hitler's greatest prob lem will be to safeguard the morale of his people from this shocking blow. Had the Individual been al most any other than Hess, the task of satisfying them would be easier. But, as I pointed out recently, in their minds he shared the spiritual leadership which they accord the fuehrer. Hess was closer than anyone else to Hitler the "shadow" Jsffijp i OUR ENCHM4TING NEW llr DICING MILEAGE M HOSIERY W lee hendr,cks fpv 2212 s' 6tlu st rbr Pfbue tfer of Germans of his master and the people looked up to the deputy. The German mind works with a machine-like precision that -is best adapted to mass production That la why the people take kindly to regimentation. Broad ly speaking this seems to suit them better than individualism, I have watched the death's head guards goose-stepping, and have felt a chill at the precision and militaristic finality express ed in the crash of their hob nailed boots in unison on the pavement. I was at the battle of Lens in the summer of 1817, when a company of the Kaiser's pet troops, the third Prussian guards, was sent to death against the enemy machine guns four abreast, in order to set an ex ample of courage to the rest of the German troops. Yes, the Germans make a magnificent machine when syn chronized. The nazi political and military machine has presented a tower of strength thus far. But let there be a serious break, and the dislocation which fol lows often is difficult to repair. Hess has been a vital cog in the nazi machine. Indeed, the whole great structure has been coordinated with the cog which was Hess, for he spoke with the voice of the fuehrer, and had the respect of the masses. Now that cog is gone, and it will be no easy task to replace it. Small wonder then that the British and their allies are jubi lant, for they have placed great hope in destroying the confi dence of the German people in the nazi government. Success on that line would mean an allied victory. DA VINCI'S MOST FAMOUS The "Mona Lisa" at the Lou vre.
