Every new Nazi aggression or threat of aggression in Europe

is bound to make Americans more implacably anti- Nazi than ever. And for a very good reason. There are certain to be living today as good citizens of the Union tens or hun- dreds of thousands of representatives (of the first or second generation) of any nationality threatened by Herr Hitler. Poland is the latest case in point. There are a million and a quarter actually foreign-born Poles in the United States ; what the number of Poles of the second generation is I have not discovered. There are half a million Czecho-Slovaks. There is a considerable number of Lithuanians. Everyone of these communities is, for good reasons, an effective centre for the propagation of anti-Nazi sentiment. No Congress- man can forget their voting-power.
