Nazi Germany is the most recent nation to subscribe to the fallacy that might makes right, Dr. Benjamin Dubovsky, member of the executive committee of the Non-Sectarian Anti-Nazi League, declared last night over Station WLTH. Dr. Dubovsky urged support of the boycott of Nazi goods.
“The arrogant and ruthless rulers of a once great and proud nation think they have discovered something new,” the speaker said. “They fail to recognize that in reality it is the law of the jungle.”
“As long as the Nazis will be able to finance their army of stormtroopers, spies and propaganda,” he continued, “they will be in a position to keep their stranglehold on the German nation, prepare for war and menace the peace of the world. Stop the flow of foreign money to the Nazi coffers by means of the boycott and you paralyze the grip with which Hitlerism chokes the free life out of Germany.”
