THAT NAZI FEELING

Like a fever oi* a politically influential epidemic the Nazi cult, following' the orbits of Nihilism, Bolshevism, Red ism, Fascism, is spreading out from Berlin, to Vienna, to London. Now there is a report that it is invading even placid Denmark, tile country of all lands in Europe that desires to strictly attend to its own business and heat New Zealand especially for the butter trade of England. ButPremier Stuuning nrobablv least known of all Europe’s statesmen, warns Hitler and Co. to go easy on that Nazi feeli ■ so far as Denmark is concerned. T his is how lie puts it in writing : “We wish above all to live r. peaceful life, and I am sure German leaders do not nourish a, desire to threaten the sovereignity of liberty in Denmark, as we on our part wish to rspect the Ge-r----rights to carry out its own ideas within its own borders. All that Denmark wishes is co-operation, the good will of all and fidelity to popular rule which assures bet ter than any other economic and cultural development. TVe must aid in every way possible the community. But it is certain that if we prefer to accord confidence in foreign agitators rather than responsible government the nation will lea-cl itself into a much worse crisis- tlia-n it is at present.” The great Dane views another aspect of tile- Nazi cult: We do not care to be governed by militarists nor hy police nor hv soldiers. And we now let it he known that the first attempt to institute such a- state will he met hv force. Our leaders do not lack the necessary means of maintaining order. Wo are lovers of peace. We wish the Danish people to live in peace. We shall never take the initiative to break this peace.

But we will not tolerate irresponsible individuals who may attempt to undermine Danish Society. “That is something for Hitler to think over. Still more: “We do not believe that a Dictator is for the best, interest of the people. However, we recognise the rights of others to choose for themselves such a regime, i We in Denmark wish to conserve the sovreignty o-f the people. We shall guard democracy and we shall work to develop our social laws for the sound production and culture of' the State.” But for the Nazis and other experimentalists Premier Stauniun. put up this notice on the border: Trespassers will he Prosecuted !
