ideologies, economic credos and political categories
which are the product of centuries of accumulation and
momentum may be displaced for the time by an over-
whelming force, but until there is a new orientation
from within these inelastic ideologies, credos and cate
gories return to the old forms from which they were
temporarily jarred.
We stated before the election that the success of
Hindenburg would not change Germany's internation-
al relationships or her internal policy materially. The
return of the Kaiser is not a prospect that should cause
much worry. Stay at home Germany, conservative Ger-
many represented by the women, not aggressive, mili-
tant Germany, was articulate. France has recognized
Germany's claim to a share of Europe; England has
done so by definite pronouncement.
The Jews of Germany have no reason to fear any-
thing from Hindenburg for he has expressed unquali-
fied approval of their heroism and has not charged
them with the responsibility for Germany's defeat.
The sooner the whole world recognizes Germany's
rightful place, the sooner will war wounds be healed
and we shall proceed to the solution of pressing prob-
lems and the correction of the many abuses from which
Europe still suffers.
