Safety-first Glory
One of the Young Mussolinis (we think it was the Bruno specimen) once wrote a poetic account of the beauties of bombing Abyssinian natives from the air. ■ - It was a heartless game at best. / - ! We’re wondering if the Nazi airmen who have and are machine-gunning defenceless fishermen aren’t getting a similar sadistic pleasure out of their vile task. . Certainly there is no heroism in it. And any credit that may be attached to it is of the depraved type that can only appeal to twisted perverts of the Nazis. It is glory on the strictly safety-first plan. Frederick the Great, Bismarck, Kaiser Wilhelm and Adolf Hitler—why, it’s like stepping from a throne (slightly bloodstained, true) to midden.
