Hitler then said: “The hardest problem I Polish-Ger- man relations. We faced the danger here of steering ourselves into fanatical hysteria. . . . This Y wanted to forestall. I know perfectly well I would not have succeeded alone if at that time there had been a found was democracy of western construction in Poland. For these democracies running-over with peace phrases are the most bloodthirty of war instigators. There was no democracy in Poland With him w but there was a man.| icceeded in arriving at an agreement' there, a ar, which presently, for the duration removes the danger of any in less than a ¥y , basically f ten years, clash. “We are all determined and also convinced that this agreement will bring about lasting and continu- ous pacification, because problems in eight years are no different from those today. I recognize and we must all see that a State of 33,000,000 people (Po- land) will always strive for an outlet to the sea Here the road to understanding had to be found and it was found.” Thus Hitler in September, 1938. But long before he eight years mentioned have expired, Poland has become the chief object of the German drive. Neither pacification nor the existence of a dic torial government in Poland has given the Poles im- munity from Nazi ambitions. Poland, by allying itself with Hitler and by ac- epting some of looted Czechoslovakia, placed itself in line to become the next victim Friend of the Navy (Cleveland Plain Dealer) The name of Claude A. Swanson will be long re- membered in the annals of the navy. Few secretaries have stood higher in the esteem of the service than the colorful Virginian who died recently at the age of 1. A set of fortunate circumstances combined to crown Swanson’s long political career. Personally he favored a big navy. He had the backing of Pres| dent Roosevelt who since his service as Assistant retary of the Navy has been friendly to that branch of the armed forces. And through Swanson’s personal popularity he had no difficulty persuading Congress to make appropriations which might have been with- held from a less likable secretary School teacher, Governc Senator, Swanson’s carcer covered a longer period than has that of that other famous Virginian, Carter He once described himself as a “liberal Demo- Nothing else” and that he remained When he was attacked by illness early in 1937 he was forced to relinquish much of the detail work of his department, but he kept a firm hand on policy and there was no mistaking who was Secretary of the Navy. When Swanson joined the cabinet the navy was at a low ebb. As a result of the Washington treaty and the building holiday the fleet was far from being what many experts considered an adequate force for the protection of the nation Today the navy is en- sed in a continuous building program that will in- crease its tonnage by 20 percent, inclufiing many new capital ships, at a cost of $1,500,000,000. tary Swanson always had that friendly, easy- going air abeut him characteristic of the south. He was an able American and a Virginia gentleman. Representative and Glass crat (Cincinnati Enquirer) One of the hardiest popular misconceptjons is that ttributable to new inventions and mechanical progre Most of the time surface indi- catic accepted as the final result. For instance, if a machine performs in an hour’s time the labor which previously required a man-day, it is assumed unemployment i that eight men have been displaced in industry. Frequently overlooked is the fact that it requires men to make machines, to furnish the power which operates them, to repair them and to tend them Thus is only a changed the net result, in many instances, character of employment and an easing of the demand upon labor During the first 30 years of the present century, recognized as the greatest three decades of invention and technological development in the history of man- kind, employment in the United States increased by 20,000,000 jobs. Even since 1930 the percentage of the population with jobs has been greater than during the eras which 75 to 100 years ago were considered prosperous. Fifteen new industries owing to inventions patented since 1870 are estimated to have created, directly and indirectly, jobs for 15,000,000 Americans. The industries are: Aircraft, aluminum manufacture, automobies, h registers, adding ma- chines and ulating machines; electrical machinery, apparatus and supplies; ice cream, lighting equipment; petroleum refining, radios and phonographs, rayon and | allied products, refrigerators and refrigerating, rubber tires and tubes, telephone communication, tin cans and tinware, and typewriters and parts. The automobile industry alone—which at the start was regarded as a job destroyer because of its ten- | dency to displace blacksmiths and stablemen—employs directly more than half a million workers, and indirect- |ly several million more. Nearly a third of a million | persons are employed, at $327,000,000 a year, in the | garment industries which it was thought would be |ruined by the introduction of the sewing machine. | Clearly unemployment is by no means the inexorable | price of industrial progress. their development n Gayda, | resistance by Czect | not the vietims of * | of reasoning, burgl up and yells | B | Britain’s Foreign Secretary, Lord Halifax, says that “it impossible to negotiate with a government [ whose responsible spokesmen brand a friendly country thieves anc blackmailers.” Give 'em time over d they may Italian editor, cites the lack of and Albanians as proof they were ggression.” By the same process isn’'t burglary if no one wakes L% work up to fightin’ words yet! YO-HO FOR THE OPEN BIKE PATH_There's no staying at home for the two Gil- bert youngsters in Santa Barbara, Cal, for when their parents, Mr. and Mrs. Howard Gilbert, de- cide on a bicycling spree the boys ride along. The trailers in which Gordon (left) and Raymond ride are homemade, a fact which doesn't detract a bit from the children’s enjoyment. %roscope_ “The stars incline but do not compel" | Although this is not an important day in planetary government, ac- cording to astrology, it should be fortunate for many. Jupiter is in friendly aspect. The stars stimulate frade. Mer- chants should profit thiough in- creased volume of business. Govern- mental guidance may be less defin- ite than it has been in the past. The sway encourages independence. There is a sign indicating bigh tension for mnervous persons. Trri- tability may be noticeable in the family circle. Rest and relaxation are recommended. While there are indications of sudden changes of temperature and frequent heat waves in many parts of the country, weather discussions should be avoided. Diet and cloth- ing should be adapted to changes on the thermometer. Again the seers forecast a ten- jency toward extreme egotism umong youny persons. Parents may mndergo many to patience and smployers may resent the self-suf- iciency of juniors. Return to punctilious observance »f ethical and religious rules gov- srning social relations is prognos- icated.

Mountain climbers and stunt swimmers are subject to ‘evil por- ents. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of attainment. There should be préparation for fu- ture changes that promise success. Children born on this day prob- ably will be aspiring and unselfish n nature. Many of these subjects of Leo are exceedingly generous and able to share success. Their ruling vlanet is the Sun. (Copyright, 1939) i SR A U is o+ s o R T.
