Either the American peM)ple have a t last realized their old policy of isolation has heoome a practical impossibil- iiv with all that the change implies,- or the present situation in Europe and the F ar E ast is far more critical'than has been made public, but which would, of course, be immediately known in higher financiarcircles. v , , Obviously aipoiilt has been reached or nearly reached whoi*e cither the democracies Or the dictators will have to " (rive ground. The former, each in their own way, have in­ formed Mussolini th a t"the time has come to "talk turkey." Tlu'v will nq longer tolerate his policy of diplomatic evasion, which is only a cloak for continued attem pts to establish an Italian empire by force of arms. And there is. reason to believe Unit this time they mean ju s t what they say, for the tide h is turned in their favor and England has re-armed. ' The foundation of. both Hitler's and Mussolini's policy of wdrld agression was a whirlwind campaign based on the efficacy of the' aeroplane and- the tank to achieve a quick victory such as they won in Ethiopia. , Fortunately for the world they have failed everywhere else. The new anti-tank guns have done th e ir work, wWle the light tank, on which such high hopes were .placed, has proved itself vulnerable, even to such slight weapons, comparatively speaking, as hand grenades. And the aeroplane opposed by the. improved anti­ aircraft-guns, has not' been able-to reduce-M adridm uch-less-- deal-effectiveIy_with--troops_in_the_field..
