i exiles!
There is apt but grim symbolism in the fact that
the Hague Peace Palace is in the hands of invading Ger-
mans, and the League of Nations is in flight from
Geneva.
Even the birthplace at Delft of Grotius, father of
international law, is in German hands. Literally, a« well
as figuratively, the forces of peace are prostrate or in
flight.
Yet there will be peace again, some day, incredible
a* it seems amid 'he clash of war. Will it be a peace
imposed by a conqueror who, like Brennus, will throw
his sword into the scale and growl "Woe to the van-
quished"? Will it be an uneasy armistice between
mutually -exhausted opponents? Or will it be a peace of
justice, looking to a world of organization rather than
one of international anarcny?
private armies
No person, no group, no organization, must be allowed
to develop anything remotely like a private army in the
United States.
European, experience, especially in Germany and
Italy, shows the folly of it. Had the German Republic
or the Kingdom of Italy promptly squelched the hands
of bravos who undertook to enforce their own law
independent of the public authority, the world might
havj been spared much.
Now Mexico faces a ¡similar problem. Several years
ago, faced with the example of Spain, Mexico thought
it well to train labor union members and to arm farmers,
that both mights rally quickly to defend the government
if faccd by Fascist or reactionary revolt.
But now the Mexican Confederation of Labor shows
signs of wanting to("gp it alone," and to set up its own
miltáry school independent of the army and the govern-
ment. Th«ve is strong Communist influence in this
dominant labor organization. And now that Communism
is hand in glove with Fascism, nobody knows which way
these unofficial militiamen may decide to shoot. The
Mexican government is very unhappy about it. and is
now trying to regain control of the machinery it had
itself set up.
Now is the time for all little European neutrals to
get on the bandwagon. That is, if the bandwagon doesn't
run over them first.
President Roosevelt asks for 50,000 planes, discard-
ing the old theory about national spending, that the
sky's the limit.
