BRUTAL LANGUAGE.
ENGLISH ATTACK ON NAZIS. In strong and even brutal language, the Banker, a monthly magazine regarded as the semi-official mouthpiece of the city, opposes further loans to Germany, says a London message. It is believed that the article, which caused a sensation, marks the turning point in the city’s policy to Germany. “It is clear,” says the article, that German political leaders, gambling tor their livelihood, are prepared to gamble the lives of their people. Germany s ruthless foreign policy and the blatant threat to peace of her vast rearmament lias caused distrust to spread fai beyond Europe. “Goering says the Government prefers guns to butter. No one with any real knowledge of the conditions ol Germany accepts this gangster logic. “Any financial or territorial concessions to the present German regime would serve to perpetuate the gangster tyranny which forced Europe to become an armed camp. “We should give no concession to a country dominated by men worshipping force, who have shown no hesitation in rising murder as an instrument of domestic foreign policy. The notion of English money stemming the tide of Communism in Germany is inherently ridiculous. The money is more likely to he used for poison gas and other delectable munitions.”
