GERMAN PEOPLE
AND THE WAR
There is a good deal of evidence to show that there is little enthusiasm in Germany for the war. The latest report is an article in the "Chicago Daily News" by a writer who has spent six years in Berlin as the corres- pondent of that paper. He describes the nervous wear and tear of the vio- lent experiences through which the German peo- ple have passed in the last twenty years; he ob- serves that he has often seen German soldiers passing through Berlin and other cities on their! way to the front and only] once heard soldiers sing-| ing; he speaks of the Ger- man people as "tired as few people in the world have ever been tired without breaking down."
To maintain their spirit at all it is necessary for the Nazis to give the Ger- mans at home a rose- coloured view of the Ger- man behaviour abroad. The Nazis, therefore, who use films in neutral coun- tries to show how ruth- less they are to peoples who resist them use films at home to show how con- siderate is their conduct.

When Smith Yates prepared this cartoon yesterday the intention was to stress how Hitler was piling up stacks of trouble which would go off under him one day. Young King Peier's dramatic coup seems to have blown up the Yugoslavian barrel under Ribbentrop!
Is Victory In Sight?
It would be idle to ex- pect the war to come to British Cabinet Ministers that this an end because the Ger-year will bring us victory.
