GEORGE SAND: PROPHET OF DOOM
FOR THE TYRANTS FROM GERMANY

S peaking of "The Real France," growing intoxicated, the philoso-

the London Jewish Chronicle de-
scribes the attempts by Nazis to
force anti-Semitism upon the
French people who have respond-
ed with a "cold shoulder for Nazi
Jew-baiters." The London Jew-
ish Chronicle writes that "neith-
er the anti-Semitic Nazi 1.)(iniph-
'1ag nor' the agittitio'n of the
Nazi slaves are taken seriously
by the vast m ajority of the
French people. Their hatred of
their oppressors and their be-
lief in 'Liberty, Equality and
Fraternity' are too strong to
permit them to swallod the lies
poured out by Hitler's propa-
Banda machine."
It is this conflict in our own
time that makes the biography
of George Sand by Felizia Seyd,
published by the Viking Press
under the title "Romantic Rebel'
the Life and Times of George
Sand," a great document. The
author speaks of this great wo-
man, who lived to see the ravag-
ing of Paris by the Germans but
never doubted for a moment that
justice will conquer in the end,
as "great and kind, and admir-
ably transmitted that most vital
impulse of the French nation,
aiming always to raise the level
of justice, understanding, and
human dignity."
Mrs. Seyd, who has been driv-
en to this country by Nazi op-
pression, describes George Sand's
reactions to the attacks upon
France by the Germans during
the Franco-Prussian War. The
quotation from the great writer
has a place of significance today
in the judgment that must be
handed down upon Nazism by all
liberty-loving people. Speaking of
the victorious Germany of 1871,
Mrs. Sand uttered prophecy the
realization of which is again be-
ing prayed for by men of all
free nations today:
"The German nation will be as
much an object of pity for its
victories as we are for our de-
feats, for they are the first step
toward her moral dissolution. The
drama of her overthrow has com-
menced, and as she is working
at it with her own hands, it will
make rapid progress. All great
material organizations where
right, justice, and respect for
humanity are disregarded are ob-
jects of clay.
"Well, the moral degradation
of Germany is not the future
salvation of France; its destruc-
tion would not restore us to life.
It is not by blood that nations
renew their strength and be-
come rejuvenated. The breath of
life may yet arise from the corpse
of France; that of Germany will
be a center of pestilence for all
Europe. A nation that has lost
its ideals is doomed, and those
who breathe its fetid emanations
contract the same mortal di-
sease.
"Poor Germany! The cup of
the Almighty's anger is poured
upon thee as well as upon us;
and while thou art rejoicing and

phic mind is weeping over thy
situation and preparing thy epi-
taph.
"France still holds in her shriv-
eled hands a shred of the starry
coat 6f— the future, whilst thou
enfoldest thyself in the sullied
flag which willserve for thy
winding-sheet."
George's Sand's prophecy will
be read with extreme interest in
our time. History has repeated
itself once more. Again, the
hordes from Germany are the
masters and France is threatened
with destruction. But even to-
day there is evidence, coming
from Vichy, that the French are
revolting against Nazi cruelty;
that they refuse to adopt the
anti-Semitic program of the Hit-
lerites; that they cling to the
hope that "Liberty, Fraternity,
Equality" will again rule the
France of Zola and Voltaire and
Flaubert and George Sand.
The prophecy of George Sand
is the hope of mankind. Surely,
the intoxicated Nazis will meet
their doom, and France will once
again be the symbol of decency
on the European continent.

NEW YORK. (WNS) — Col.
Charles A. Lindbergh was ac-
cused by L. M. Birkhead, national
director of the Friends of De-
mocracy, with following the offi-
cial Nazi line and of giving "aid
and comfort to Hitlerism and
the enemies of American democ-
racy." The accusation was made
in a telegram from Mr. Birkhead
to Secretary of War Col. Henry
L. Stimson in which Col. Stim-
son was asked to clarify, in a
public statement, Col. Lindbergh's
present connection with any of
the armed or reserve forces of
the United States Army.
Mention was made in the tele-
gram of the fact that Col. Lind-
bergh still possesses a Nazi deco-
ration which he received from
General Goering during his visit
to Berlin in 1938. Recently, the
Friends of Democracy publicly
urged the American recipients of
similar Nazi decorations to re-
turn them to Germany, but Col.
Lindbergh retained his.
