Arthur Brisbane, in his column, Today, in the Hearst press, comments as follows on the testimony of Col. Fleischauer, the Nazi “expert,” at the “Protocols” trial in Berne:

Herr Ulrich Fleischauer has fresh news. As a “Nazi expert,” he says the League of Nations was planned by Jews, “to unify the language, money and religion of Israel.” Also, Herr Fleischauer discovers that Jews “gain their ends by starting revolutions.” Believe it or not, they started the Russian Revolution, having first hired somebody to assassinate Archduke Ferdinand at Sarajevo, thus starting the World War.

The German discoverer does not explain why Trotzky, head of the Bolshevik army, one of the ablest of the Bolsheviki, was expelled from Russia, if that was a Jewish revolution. The Nazi fanatic seems not to know that it is possible to be too silly.

REVIEWS KIDNAPINGS BY REICH AGENTS

The New York Post, commenting editorially on the repeated cases of kidnaping refugees by Nazi agents, says:

The arrogance, brutality and disregard for law and decency that mark Hitler’s rule over the German people make their appearance in his relations with neighboring States.

Swiss, Czech and now Dutch territorial integrity has been violated by the kidnaping of refugees in disregard of fundamental principles of international law.

The anti-Fascist journalist Jacob was kidnaped from Switzerland. Hans Lampersberger, a former member of the Republican Reichsbanner organization in Germany, has been abducted from Czechoslovakia. And now a German laborer named Gutzeit, a refugee from the Hitler Terror has been forcibly seized in Holland and taken across the border.

In each case the kidnaping means death or worse within the torture chambers of that sadist paradise, the Third Reich.

DREISER ATTITUDE TERMED ‘SHOCK’

The Nation, commenting editorially on Dreiser’s statement “that he is “not against the workers,” says:

The Dreiser-Hapgood letters published in The Nation for April 17 have created general excitement, and rightly so. Intelligent people have come to look upon Mr. Dreiser as a champion of sense and decency in public affairs, and it was a distinct shock to them, as it was to the editors of The Nation, to discover that he entertained opinions about the Jewish race which were almost an exact duplicate of those held by the Nazis, the Ku Klux Klan, and other anti-Semitic groups. The New Masses, whose cause Mr. Dreiser has long befriended, immediately asked him to justify his position, and the result of its editors’ talks with him was printed in its issue of April 23. Mr. Dreiser hemmed and hawed and protested his “good intentions” toward the Jews, but he retracted almost nothing.
