One more example of Herr von Ribbentrop's folly or per-
versity. A recent visitor to Paris was told, with all solemnity, by a former diplomat, a non-German in touch with official German opinion, that Herr von Ribbentrop and his advisers are convinced that American opinion is turning rapidly against Mr. Roosevelt and his non-Aryan clique, that any decisive move by the official government of the United States will be followed in twenty-four hours by a great popular up- rising which will sweep away the allies of the Anglo-Jewish conspiracy. When this view of the American situation was contested by the visitor, whose host insisted that he really did know something about America, the diplomat showed some signs of believing him. But he added, "If you said this in Berlin, some Foreign Office official who had never been in America, and who knows no English, would assure you that you are quite wrong ; that he knows. I know that type so well ; you can tell them nothing."
