‘It Takes So Little’
It takes so little to make us
-r.
Just a cheery clasp of a friend-
ly hand.
Just a word from one
Who can understand;
And we finish the task
We long had planned;
And we lest the doubt
And the fear we had—
So little it takes to make us
glad. —Ida G. Morrsi.

NEITHER NAZISM
NOR COMMUNISM
\
The efforts to inculcate the
. Nazi doctrines in America
have received a set-back by
the conviction of Fritz Kuhn,
the leader of the German-
Ameriean Bund. Russian Com-
_ munism is currently at a dis-
? '■ count also. * U
The pact between Stalin and
j Hitler has disillusioned many
who have been taught that
there was a distinction between
the two varieties of totalitarian
• government. It turns out that
instead of being enemies. Hit-
ler and Stalin are working for
the same end, the destruction
of all human liberty.
But. as Prof. T. V. Smith of
• the University of Chicago
pointed out recently, it is not
' -4 the Hitler of Germany or the
Stalin of Russia that we need
■ to fear as much as the “little
. Hitlers and Stalins in Ameri-
They are at work all over
the nation, trying to plant im-
ported and definitely un-
American ideas in the minds
of youth and of the discontent-
ed. In time of stress it is hu-
man nature for people to
blame their troubles upon
someone else. They look for a
scapegoat, and are ready to
listen to anybody who tells
them that some particular peo-
ple, class or sect is responsi-
ble for their distress.
The Nazi philosophy makes
the Jewish people the authors
of the world's economic woes.
In the Communist scheme of
things. Capitalism is to blame.
Both philosophies are com-
pletely material. Religion of
any sort is suppressed or dis-
couraged, and the moral prin-
ciples of which religion is the
expression are cast overboard.
. Sensible people are not fool-
ed. They know that neither
in Germany nor in Russia has
the lot of the common people
become easier or happier;
rather the contrary. Unfortu-
nately there are self-seeking
demagogues and trouble-mak-
ers busily engaged in trying to
change the American system
of free enterprise, free thought
and free speech, and the other
personal liberties guaranteed
by the Bill of Rights, into a
new scheme of things under
