TOE WAVES OF THE FUTURE ‘
Somehow, in all this talk of liberation and restora
tion of enslaved people, the world has passed by the
story of Ethiopia and its unsimpressive little emperpr,
Haile Selassie, who now is back on his throne while' the
Allies and the Axis fight out the more immediate [is
sues.
The issue of Ethiopia, however, is probably ; as
great as any. if the story be recalled in.full. Have the
United Nations forgotten the words of -the “kipg of
kings” before the league of nations, uttered at a time
when his people were being killed with dum-dum bul
lets? Then they should be read again:
“Do the people of the world not realize that by
fighting on until the bitter end, I am not only perform
ing by sacred duty to my people but standing guard
in the last citadel of collective security? Are they too
blind to see that I have my responsibilities to the whole
of humanity to face? I must still hold on until mv tardy
Allies appear, and if they never come, then I say pro
phetically and without bitterness, the west will per
ish.”
But the words of the little emperor went unheeded,
for we had ignored Manchuria, and nothing much
happened, except to the Manchurians. So we kept on
appeasing the war lords with their big talk and im
plied threats to civilization, getting mere :tardy each
year
The emperor spoke again recently, prophetically,
but without bitternes:
“Ethiopia is less interested in vengeance for the past
than in justice for the future . . . Much more import
ant is the building and maintaining of international
institutions that will prevent the rise of political bul
lies, trampling on the rights of small nations.”
When first he spoke it was nine years ago. When
last he spoke, it was a few months ago. But in the
interim, millions of people have learned—and at what
a price—that freedom and security are indivisible.
Haile Selassie dropped a stone into the world’s placid
pool and started a wave rolling into the future.
AXIS PROPAGANDA A YEAR AGO
'‘Voelkischer Beobachter,” commemorating the
twentieth anniversary of the March on Rome, pub
i . .... ....
lished quotation from previous speeches of Hitler’s,
such as: “During the few free hours I have had in re
cent weeks. I have read much about the Italian Fascist
i revolution, and it seemed to me as if it were the his
tory of my own party which lay before me. It was so
!similar, so identical—the same fight, the same enemies, I
the same opponents, the same arguments—it is really;
a miracle. We are fighting a common wrar. and let j
nobody be mistaken in thinking that this struggle will;
not be fought out to a common victory.”

UNKIND REDS SPOILED NAZI PLANS
; The Russian advance not only has been unexpected
but positively upsetting to German designs for the re- ]
distribution of European populations. \
Last summer the Nazis ’were busy fumigating the j
ghettos at Riga and Minsk, from which the Jews had;
been removed, with the idea of settling 150,000 Ger-!
mans there. This project has been called off.
When, British' bombers destroyed Hamburg and,
other cities the Nazis began evacuating homeless!
Germans to’the Ukraine. But last month Gauleiter j
Koch telegraphed Berlin that “owing to military I
events and the elastic German warfare every transport1
of refugees destined .for the Ukraine must be stopped!
immediately and all measures which have already been
taken m this connection must be canceled at once.”
