As reported By the Before the WorldWar Germany, with much less population, had extensive colonies and a great and expanding world trade, but lost them in reaching for more. Probably most Germans today would be satisfied if they possessed now what they had then.

They had not only material wealth and profitable business, but world-wide respect and admiration. What they lost by war and its penalties, plus political collapse, Hitler is now trying to regain for them by war and diplomacy that recognizes no moral limitations. Meanwhile population has grown, newly crowding the German barfiers. But Hitler demands a still higher birthrate, and in addition annexes more Germans, even bringing into the narrow limits of the Reich many who have lived abroad for centuries. All this obviously makes his and Germany's problem harder.

But Hitler demands' more European territory as a natural right, because Germans are a "superior people." And what are the displaced neighbors to do then?

The determining factor is that France and Britain together own 75 per cent of capitalized industry in the Dutch East Indies. Moreover, British industralists "in the islands need only have a Union Jack supplant the the Dutch flag to make British control formal.

London policy in the East is an imperceptible retreat before the Japanese; its historic tendency is geographically from north to south. While 'retrenchment In China is costly, the British will concede the Japanese a sphere of hegemony on the mainland rather than in the southern islands. The trend of Anglican diplomacy, according to authoritative Hollanders, is to integrate holdings closest to Singapore. Holland has no alternative to sharing sovereignty unofficially with the only fleet which can defend the Indies. From a military standpoint the British, French and Dutch holdings are would probably be followed.

Four Arizona Indian tribes have capitulated to Hitler, bowed the knee and given up their ancient symbol, the swastika, because, their resolution states, the Nazis have descrated it. This is a sad precedents it Is followed, the orient will have to do some surrendering, too, and there will be a purge of museums everywhere; Tor long before Hitler was heard of, Buddhists were using the symbol in their shrines, Persians were weaving it into rugs, Chinese were putting it on porcelain, Tibetans were tattooing it on persons, Japanese were hewing it on statutes and the Jains of India were making the sign of the swastika as they went to prayers. The Nazis' claim to the symbol Is a most belated one. The Trojans beat them to it by some 39 centuries.

The Hittites used the swastika, and it appears on King Midas' tomb. It is found in Pompcilan wall paintings, and in primitive Swiss lake dwellings. Europe's bronze age men knew it well, and so did t(he American mound builders. Also the Etruscans, the TDoneTcarving tribes of Belgium, -the Scandinavian bronze workers and Central America's aborigines. Trojans and Hittites are gone; the Etruscans and mound builders have perished.

They cannot dispute Hitler's appropriation of their symbol, and the Arizona Indians have abjectly yielded. This may be good business, so far as the sale of rugs and pottery is concerned, but it would have been a delight to see the Navajos, Apaches, Hopis and Papagos don war paint, brandish their tomahawks and demand that Hitler and his goose-steppers give up the emblem. What is the noble red man coming to, that he tolerates both the theft and the perversion of his ancient friendship symbol?

A recent Whirligig story THE NEW PIONEERS At the Inventors' fashion show in St. Louis, part of the "Modern Pioneers" celebration, manikins paraded in costumes made of chemical fabrics.

There were skirts and sweaters, tailored suits, swishing evening gowns and bathing suits made not of wool, cotton, linen or silk, but of such original materials as mothballs, vinegar, coal and milk. It sounds queer, but is all in the day's work of the Industrial chemist. And if he has already managed to create so many useful and beautiful products from beginnings apparently so unrelated to the garments the manikins wore, there would seem to be no limit to future possibilities. The research chemists are not only adding to the number of materials available for many purposes. They are also doing things mostly good to agriculture, Industry and trade, which may solve a few problems and create others.

Look at that young Robin Hood, for instance, who dressed himself in Lincoln green and took his yew. bow and strode cheerfully into Downing Street and shot a steel-tipped arrow through the window of Prime Minister Chamberlain.

Here is their extremely practical dilemma: If they declare for a third term, and he eventually renounces such a break with tradition, they will be discredited by their own president. They will become "setups" for opponents in a primary or in the election.

On the other hand, if they denounce the third-term scheme on principle, and Mr. Roosevelt should go through with it, they will get in bad with the White House and with those constituents who want more of Mr. Roosevelt. The question has become painfully acute because of Republican victories in Ohio's two special elections and Senator Donahey's decision not to brave the ballot box once more. Only a 6 per cent shift in the 1938 vote will drive at least sixty Democratic house members into retirement, and the third-term factor could easily account for such a change in their status and salary.

But it would be difficult to imagine any two words more meaningful in their application to the heroic defense of Finland against Russia. The Mannerheim line may have been broken, Viipurl may be in ruins, the Nautsi area may be devastated, the Koivisto fortifications may have been captured, the battle on the Karelian front may be going in favor of the Red invaders, yet the Soviets have not achieved the victory which the dictator Stalin requires. Indeed, it now may be wondered if the Bolshevik czar ever can attain his objective in Finland.

Great Britain and Fiance realize at least, tardily perhaps, but not altogether too late, that Russia is their enemy. A Polish army is said to be moving to the aid of the courageous Finns. Swedish volunteers are crossing the Gulf of Bothnia in a steady stream. Norway and Denmark understand that their existence is threatened by Soviet success. Meanwhile, the alliance with Russia is far from popular in Germany.

It was by promising to protect the reiclv against the peril of militant communism that the Nazi party rose to power, and Hitler's less fanatical followers have not forgotten his fulmlna-tions against the Muscovite Marxists and their policies of mischief. In Turkey also there is growing sentiment for a drive upon the Soviets by the way of the Ukraine. Only yesterday Italy announced that any activity by Stalin in the Balkans would be resisted. It almost inevitably will the verdict of history that Russia has suffered a tremendous loss of prestige during the past six months first, because of the Bolshevik "deal" with the Nazis; second, because of the failure of the Soviet "blitzkrieg" in Finland, The reputation of Stalin, notorious before August, 1939, now is damaged beyond all hope of repair; the credit of his army has been wrecked by its failure to make an efficient showing in the field. Even if the Finns eventually are conquered, the price paid by their foes will have been too high.

But the democratic nations of the world ought not to permit Russia to claim any sort of victory over Finland. The people of that valiant little state have held the line for civilization, as a distinguished Englishman rightly has said. It is the duty of those nations still free to support their struggle against barbarism. "Fighting continues" by grace of God, and it will be the earnest prayer of millions of Americans that it may not cease until the Finns have been reinforced effectively enough to guarantee the survival of their independence-and the liberty which they have earned by sacrifice unparalleled in current times.

With 68 per cent of American families living on an average of $69 a month, he asserted that meeting of the unsatisfied wants of two-thirds of the country's population would make the greatest new market that ever has loomed before businessmen and farmers.

Export crops have been especially hard hit, he recounted, by dislocations in our foreign trade that trace back to more than two decades ago, when we changed from a debtor to a creditor nation and when we plowed UP forty million acres of grass land to help win the war. When the World war armies were demolished, American farmers lost their market for these excess crops, since every major nation was trying to sell as much as possible abroad and buy as little as possible from other countries. But big yields of farm crops could be disposed of at home if all Americans could buy all they need to eat and wear. The food-stamp and cotton-stamp plans now undertaken by Mr. Perkins' organization represent an attack on this problem, but the stamp plans are only emergency measures at best and will affect, at the consumption end, only those families who are on reliel rolls.

The underconsumption problem is too big to be solved by any single measure, but better understanding of its importance will be-in the ultimate interest of both farmers and other producers and those now pinched by subnormal standards of living.

An American poet named Arthur Dillon has just published volume of verses including this one: "I write my songs to please myself, For a lone audience of one; And if write for love, not pelf, I know my work's unselfishly done." Now what could be more selfish than for a poet to write poems just for himself. brag about it? But he redeems himself with another poem, which if it isn't very poetical is sensible, anyway: "End beggars and the "dole, Get folks out of a hole, Give them useful labor; Destroy the gun and saber Which lessen their morale And help the criminal."
