THE JUDGE ON THE BENCH I cannot say how the truth may be. murderer is loose on the face of the earth! He kills at will under the excuse that he is purging a nation and a race, and he has his representatives ack- nowledged in the capitals of other nations upon the earth. He murders Jews today; tomorrow it may be Methodists, the next day Baptists, Presbyterians, Cath- olics, Christian Scientists, Episcopalians or any denom- ination which may offend his twisted mentality. He may, if he feels so inclined, in his blindness slobber death-orders against the English, the Irish, the Dutch, or any other nationality which goose-steps awkwardly. The Allied Nations, at the conclusion of the World War, seriously discussed the trial of Wilhelm; these same nations look daily upon the sight of a knee- breeches mind hobby-horsing its way through the bloody ranks of peaceful peoples. There is no Germany today; there is no Austria to- day. There is no national pride in these two countries now—it is Hitler fear. The prideful nations which lived within the physical boundaries named Germany and Austria have passed out of existence. The Ger- many and Austria we knew respectfully, even senti- mentally, are today Hitlerland. We do not ship oil to Germany, we ship it to Hitler. We do not allow the use of helium gas to Germany, we allow its use to Hitler. Anything else is silly pretense. There are no German ambassadors at any of the courts of the world; there are only the personal representatives of Hitler. Austria was not seized by Germany. Austria was seized by a man whose bank balance was low and who saw in the per capita gold reserve of Austria a chance to fatten his balance and increase his buying ability. Jesse James and Dillinger operated from exactly the same motives, and society seized them both; in their case society went even further and punished the law- yers and the doctors who attended them, charging that they had prostituted their professional ability for money. Any person or any nation that trades with Hitler is doing the same thing the doctor did in treat- ing Dillinger’s gun wounds and trying to remove the skin to alter his fingerprints. If the pitiful and aging Kaiser was a subject for May, 1958 I say the tale as ‘twas told to me. —Sim Water Scorr. trial by the Allied Nations, a million times more is there a necessity for trial of the madman Hitler. At least the Kaiser loved his Germany. Oo’ this page we said, in the last issue, that there was grave necessity for a great Jew to earn im- mortality by announcing his leadership of his people in an aggressive, fighting, uncompromising, vigorous abandonment of defensive tactics, in favor of a con- certed attack. This page cried War! to be waged by the Jews for the Jews, led by some great unafraid Jew whose people will respect him and follow him. Now let this writer say to his own people, the Irish, and to all the other peoples and all the other religions, that while the Jew fights at a focal point, we must not delude ourselves into the belief that we are free from the type of insane, murderous thinking which today persecutes the Jew even unto death. Permit this dis- torted mentality to spread its poison and every man will suffer, until of its own weight it dies. That may be too long a time with too much harm done mean- while, and, unresisted, may encourage another crazy man, in yet a little while, to try for greater success in murder. A great Jew must lead the Jews. They must be aggressive; they must fight this fight as fighters. A sincere and kindly people must make the world know that the very virtues which they possess are enough treasured by them to resist their destruction, and to fight for their longer life and greater development. The mountainous avalanche of letters which has come to this writer since that page appeared leaves him humble in his exposure to the prayers of a justice- _ Starved race, but proud beyond his ability to express that he was made privy to those prayerful hearts. In another time on another day we pray that it may be understood by those whom the word “fight” of- fends, that the great lovers of peace, recorded by history, of all times, were those individuals who joined their prayers for calm with the vigor and courage of militant thought and speech against the depravity which would attempt to destroy peace. 23 comicbooks.com
