History says he can. Frederick the Great performed a similar feat in the Seven Years War from’1756 to 1763. | Solving many problems Hitler. is now facing, he held off Rus- sia, Austria, France, Spain, Sicily—and fought the war to a stalemate. Frederick a dilletante turned militarist, had Britain as an ally, however. Before the Seven Years War, he had fought and won the war of the Austrian Succession, tak- ing: the territory of Silesia from Queen Maria Theresa's Austraia. That war lasted from 1740 to 1748, and he had the help o and Spain in winning i The French gained nothing, however, and were persuaded by Maria Theresa to join an aili- ance with the Austrians and Rus- sians. Frederick—from whor Hitler may have got his inspira- tion—then claimed he was ‘be: ing war seized Saxony and marched into Bohemia. His enemies moved on), ail sides. . The Russians crashed into East Prussia. The French came at him from the west. The Swedes marched into north- ~ ern Brandenburg fiom Pomer- ania. Austrians poured back into ‘Silesia, Frederick was ringed by enemies—and his troops ‘were greatly outnu bered, From one front to another he raced his army. He met. the French in central Germany and defeated them so mercilessiy their general could not estimate the number of killed or captur ed. Then he sped to Silesia met the Austrians—and took a third of their army captive. While beating back his foe: however, Frederick was being seriously drained of manpower, for the British help consisted mainly of money. He_ then adopted many practices Hitler has been forced to copy. He made use’ of recruits froi hostile countries, as Hitler has done in what he calls his “holy war” against Russia. ‘ing ‘ “encircled”, and without. declar-' ‘BALLET LEAPS AT “DRUMS OF WAR | | By JOHN SELBY | Associated Press Arts Editor | NEW YORK, May 24.—By tie | yend of this month the Ballet) ) Theater will have played to ‘more than 170;000 people in the | till-glamorous interior of the) letropolitan Opera House. Sol _Hurok, who is chiefly responsi- | ble for this, says that packing them in since April 1 in such| quantities is a world’s record for ballet, He says, too, it’s not remarkable. ay Mr. Hurok is a_ short, bald) man with peculiarly intent eyes. He slumps forward at his desk ‘when talking to you and _ his} words betray his Russian origin —he occasionally, event yet, tan- gles his English just a bit. “In the early “twenties,” he says, “they told me that the! ' country was Russian-crazy. They said anything Russian would go over, and I said they were ) wrong. Because Chaliapin, Pay- | ;iowa, the Moscow Art Theater jand some other things were fab- -ulously popular meant nothing. ' Those things were the best things first; they were Russian sec- | ondarily. | “So with ballet. Just any bal-} ot won't pack them in.

These cannot build houses! or buy motor ears or travel ex- tensively.
