Ten days ago a riot of violence against Jews and their businesses throughout Germany startled the world. Today there are manv who won der if greater Germany has started something that will' be hard to stop. Ten days ago the world remem bered and seemed to accept British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain's assurance there would be "peace in our time" after the Munich accord cave one-third of Czechoslovakia to Germanv. Po land and Hungary. That was the price of European peace. On Nov. 7 a Polish Jewish youth, Hersehel Gryns?pan, shot Third Secretary Ernst vom Rath In the Paris German embassy and the diplomat died two days later. Rerlin Mobs loosed. Before dawn the next day mobs sacked or damaged a thousand or more Jewish stores, principally in Berlin but also in other cities. The world has seen persecution of the Jew before. It has seen pogroms. It has known German and Italian measures to repress if not suppress the Jews. This time something clicked In the world's mind. President Roose velt said he "could scarcely believe that such things could occur In a 20th century civilization." Millions in England, France and elsewhere voiced protests against the violence and the $100,000,000 line with which Germany punished her 500,000 Jews for the shots In the Paris embassy. Even Field Marshal Wllhelm Goering was alarmed at the destruction of Jewish property nnd Its consequences. He feared It might hamper his four-vear plan to make Germany self-contained, dependent upon none but herself. Barn Foreign Papcm. Germany professed surprise that other countries protested against repression of the Jews. Ninety different foreign newspapers with tales of German antl-Jewlsh violence have been prohibited from sale In Germany, What will Hitler do? And will the world do anything about Germany and the Jews? Hitler appears to be pursuing the course he planned. Germany now Is greater than European Germany of before the war.
