Returns From
Trip Europe
(Continued FTom Page One)
ess and as usual had a glorious
time there. Then I went over to
England for the coronation of
King George and his Queen. That
was the most barbarically mag
nificent spectacle that I have ever
seen. I doubt if its like has ever.
been seen before, or will ever be
seen again. After looking over j
England and talking to many peo
ple there, I am thoroughlyt con
vinced that England has seen her
last King crowned. London was
not at its best during the corona
tion. Prices soared beyond all
reason, and 1 thoroughly agree,
with Napoleon when he branded
the English as a "nation of shop
keepers,’ Accomodations were
jsjear out of reach, and were as!
poor in quality as they wore high
in price. I found practically all of
England aggressively on the de
fensive for the treatment they
gave the former Prince of Wales,
now the Duke of Windsor. They
are forever trying to justify the
actions of Prime Minister Bald
win and that pair of vindicative
morons, the two Archbishops,
but behind it all there is a lack
of sincerity to their arguments.
Wasn't it Shakespeare who said
‘methinks the lady doth protest
too much?’ Well, that's how they
sounded to me.
"I spent some time in rural
England, and to my notion, that
is the finest part of the country.
I love the country in England,
but deliver me from the cities.
England is not so good as far as
business is concerned. There is
lots of labor troubles, wages are
starvation low, and commodity
prices are high. Just about the
only busy spots in the country
are the shipyards, munitions fac
tories and airplane factories, but
the ships they are building are all
warships, and that does not look
good to me.
“War in Europe? Not for years,
and don't let anyone tell you any
thing different. Remember what
Hoover said back in 1914, or was
it 1916?
"Well, anyway, he said, “Food
will win the war, don’t waste it,’
and that was one of the truest
things that Herbie ever said.
There is not a country in Europe,
with the possible exception o#
Russia, that could feed itself for
six months if they were cut off
from the rest of the world. That’s
the lesson Germany learned in
the World War, and they all know
it now. In the next war it will be
food that wins, not ammunition.

that another war means the com

‘‘In the meantime, Italy and

Hitler Greatest Man in Europe
"Who was the greatest man you
saw in Europe?” we asked.
“Hitler.” she promptly replied,
“and he is in my opinion the
greatest organizer and builder in
the whole world,” she added.
"He has done wonders for Ger
many, not only in rebuilding the
country, but in rebuilding the en
tire people as well. In Germany
he is an idol, and his every act
is held up as an example for child
ren to follow. And don’t forget
he is absolute boss, but he is just
a boss. He took the young people
of Germany out of the beer and
dance halls and put them to work
and now they admire him for it.
Don't take all of this Jewish pro
paganda you read about him too
seriously—go over and see for
yourself as I did, and then you
will realize what a great man he
is.”
"How about Communism and
Nazism?” we asked.
C.S. Most Contmunistir Country
Mrs. Strong laughed heartily.
“Do you know," she said, “that
you have a lot more Communism
and all the other isms right here
in the United States than they
have in Italy, France, Germany
and Russia combined? Things are
happening right here at home
i that could not happen in any of
; those countries. How long do you
think John Lewis, Martin, Bridg
es, Dave Beck and that kind of
people would be allowed to
strangle business over there?
i Why they wouldn't last ten min
utes—it’s only here in this coun
try of ours that they can get
away with those kind of actions.
"Strikes—they don’t know any
thing about them, and if there is
, any trouble it’s settled by the
j government, and settled right
then. Over there they have a gov
ernment, and a real man at the
head of the government, so they
do not have strikes, riots, bomb
ing and all that we have been

taught we must expect when a
country is having growing pains.
"Oh yese, I want to go back
again. I like to see the changes |
that are taking place. Since my
first trip abroad, never mind how
long ago. I’ve seen Russia stag
nated. go through a revolution,
have an awful headache, and fin
ally come out as the most pro
gressive nation in Europe. I've
seen Germany up and down and
finally on a solid up-take. I’ve
seen Ita'y do the same thing. I’ve
seen France when she was pros-;
pering and I saw her a couple of
months ago, wrestling with the
troubles of strikes, and revolu
tions just around the corner. I
have seen England slowly sinking
getting in deeper and deeper, but
she will finally come out all right
as ore r>f Jier statesmen said,
•We’ll muddle through somehow.’
“Now when I get home, I find
the United States in a oad way. I
don't know what is going to hap
pen—no one does, but it's not go
ing to be pleasant. I fear it will
be lots worse before it gets any
better. All I am sure is that we
must have an about-face, and
start running our own country.
1 never saw business men so up
in the air as they are right now
in the East. All agree that some
thing must be done—but what?
I wish I knew."
