Events crowd upon one anoth
er so fast that anything written
today upon the war situation in
Europe is likely to be outmoded
stuff tomorrow, and to attempt a
forecast is even more dangerous.
The matter boils down to what
Hitler will do and what the rest
of the world will do about it.
Since the beginning of the year,
Germany has progressed, step by
step, in tightening down on
Czechoslovakia. The earliest as
surance 'was that Germany had
no designs upon the small coun
try that is now’ attracting so
much attention. Next came a
mild interest in the welfare of
Sudetan Germans. Following
that w’as the conviction that the
Sudetan element should have
self government. Today German
rule ls advocated plainly. Out
off, unless obstacles not now seen
tight annexation likely is not far
clearly, are interposed.
In 1934. Mr. Hitler, speaking
at the burial of Gen. Hindenburg
linked him with Bismark and
with the determination of the’1
Fatherland to grow in power and
grandeur. Hitler has added his
own name to the list without
!
waiting for a funeral orater
1 How much Europe will let him
get away with, no one can say at
this time. It is clear that he
shouid be squelched, but who
wants the job?
The Maryland primaries did
not turn out so well as the Ad
ministration had hoped, but for
some reason not easily explained,
the tumult and the shouting of
the opposition was neither so
loud nor so long as might have
been expected. It does not appear
tha what some prefer to call the
j battle for the control of the Dem
ocratic party is by any means set
tied. While it is true that Sen
ator Tydings and his friends to
[some degree are in a position to
| put their thumbs to their noses,
jthe anti- New Deal Democrats do
: not claim to be more than “en
couraged.” With such encourage
; ment, it is now intimated that
Senator Barkley ought to be de
posed as Senate leader, in favor
of Mr. Byrnes of South Carolina
| or Mr. Harrison of Mississippi,
each of whom is willing to suc
i ceed. neither of whom is eager
[for the loss of prestige that
; would go with getting a beating.
_
Taking the political situation
all in all, from the Republican
view' point, the Democrats have
a bad split in prospect. As the
Democrats see it, nothing is go

scoffers on both sides had better

A celebrated digester of straw

Roosevelt election, due to the
fact that the names of voters
were selected only from tele

JAPAN WILL HOLD
CHINA BY MILITARY
TOKYO, Oct. — Japan’s deter
mination to hold China indefinite
ly under military occupation and
compel her to “cooperate” with
Japan in all vital matters after
the wa ris ended, was disclosed
in a statement emanating from
government sources. The state
ment was published as news by
Domei agency.
The pronouncement was inter
preted as an indication of the
Japanese government’s belief
that the capture of Hankow
wo-uld end the purely military
phase of their conquest and per
mit cessation of further offensive
operations by Japan in China.
The declaration said Japan will
compel China to cooperate pol
itically, economically and cul
turally after the fighting is over
and China must accept industrial
and economic reciprocity; China
must join in an accord with Jap
an, Germany and Italy and pro
hibit all anti-Japanese move
ments; China must abandon “all
policies and forms of education
likely to destroy amity” with
Japan.
