in destroying the economic status
of the Jews, that they had de-
stroyed 'capitalism.' They did

What they had accomplished was
to blame their evils on a devil,

proceeded to rename all the evils

thinking thereby to convince the
people that the evils had been
done away with."
In the brief 11 pages in which
he deals withthe Jewish suffer-
ings under the Nazis and the man-
ner in which Jews have been made
the goats for all that is bad, Dr.
Brady covers the subject better
than many writers have in their
complete volumes. Pointing out
that the Nazi methods are histori-
cal nonsense, he admits that It is
not stupid propaganda." Thus he
explains:
An even greater role Was as-
signed the Jews in Nazi propa-
ganda by proving them to be the
creators of Communism, Marxism,
Bolshevism, Class War, Trade
Unions and Internationalism, in
short, the creators of all the or-
ganized groups allied against the

idea of the People's Community—
the Nazi name for actual German
capitalism. By one of the most
curious bits of reasoning to be
found anywhere in modern propa-
gandist literature, the Jews are
held to be not only responsible for
the creation of (Jewish-type)
Christianity, Capitalism, and Bol-
shevism, but these also are held
to be merely different phases of
the same thing."
Warning against the impending!
danger of fascism, Prof, Brady
concludes his thesis by stating:

Appeal for Volunteers
at Summer Play School

"The Spirit and Structure of
German Fascism" must be given
a place in every library and in
every home. It is by far the best
guide available in the fight
against fascism and Nazism.

LOOKING FOR
A USED ca

BARGAIN?

You can't go wrong if you trust the
car from
fact that "You get a better used

a Buick Dealer." Here's why:

NTOU know, yourself, how popu-
lar the new Buicks arc. You see
them by the dozens wherever you go.

But here's something maybe you
didn't know. Many people were so
eager to own those new Buicks that
they traded in perfectly good cars for
them. Some almost new!

That means two things of interest
to you if you want a good used car
at a good price:

First, your Buick dealer is doing a
rushing business. lie's overstocked
w ith used cars. lie needs room for
more new Buicks. And he's keeping
his prices down in order to sell his
used cars fast.

Second, you'll find better cars at your

Buick dealer's than he's ever been
able to offer you before.

And there's one more thing worth
remembering: Your Buick dealer is a
reputable merchant. He expects to
sell Buicks for years to come. He
knows he can do that only if he plays
fair with all his customers. One dis-
satisfied customer today might cost
him many sales in the future. He's
taking no chances either with his
reputation—or with your good will!

See Him Today

Don't delay. Get your pick of your
Buick dealer's choice stock. Ask him
about the genuinely reasonable easy
terms he's able to offer you. Then—
drive away in a better used car than
you ever thought you could buy for
the money!
