Adolf Hitler is “educating the smaller peoples of Europe to the fact that the cause of the Jews is bound up with their own national preservation,” it was declared today in the New York Times unsigned editorial column,”Topics of the Times.”
The fact that the subjugator of Czecho-Slovakia is the implacable enemy of the Jews cut the ground from under anti Semites in Czecho-Slovakia who had called the Jews the enemies of the nation, the commentator said. Hitler’s thesis that the Jews are the enemies of mankind “will lose its appeal as the neighbors begin to take notice that victory for Hitler’s ideas means the loss of their national existence,” the writer asserted.
The role of the Jew and anti-Semitism in the world today is discussed at length in magazine articles by Prof. Alfred North Whitehead, noted mathematician and philosopher of Harvard University, and Demaree Bess, well-known journalist and foreign correspondent. Prof. Whitehead writes on “An Appeal to Sanity” in the current number of Atlantic Monthly, while Mr. Bess discusses “Jewish Pawns in Power Politics” in the March 18 issue of the Saturday Evening Post.
