“Hitler is the most dangerous man in the world today,” Sherwood Eddy, internationally known author and traveler declared in a lecture at the Pittsfield High School Auditorium tonight.
“He constitutes the most serious menance to the peace of the world since the outbreak of the world war. Whatever good he may have accomplished by unifying Germany inspiring the youth and giving courage to a demoraliazed country is overbalanced by his relentless persecution of the Jews and other minoyities, his dangero9us militarism and his pathological spirit of hate, transmitted to irresponsible followers.
Mr. Eddy’s lecture was sponsored by the Temple Anshe Amounim Rabbi, Harry Kaplan presided.
