It would offer us an opportunity to bring the war to a speedier end by greater exertion toward a complete military victory. But to point out this possibility is not the purpose of these rumors, nor would it be the purpose behind an actual ntt within the Keich. TV j1 a jet uuuuuess as me turning tide rises ever more threateningly against the Reich, the military caste will seek to dissociate itself from Hitler. It will do this in the hope of negotiating peace that will leave at least the foundations of German military might intact In anv war wnicn oeveiops as tnis one has that is, in which the initial offensives fail to bring a decision Germany must prepare another strategy a strategy of peace. If this is successful the Germans may win the war even though they have lost its decisive battles in the field. A more thorough understanding of this German concept of war and peace might have prevented the mistakes that permitted German leaders first of all to "organize sympathy" after the last war, to maintain an officers' training school in the form of a seemingly harmless small army, to further improve its officers by sending them abroad to train other armies, and to gain actual experience in modern warfare as they did in Spain. It is a maxim of German military thinking'that vir is the exercise of politics by other means. War thus becomes merely an extension of a militarist concept of peace.. Likewise it is a fact that peace is looked upon by military and by many political and intellectual leaders in Germany, as an extension of war. This thinking has developed partly as a result of the geographical position of Germany, which has led that nation to adopt a strategy in which the military offensive has first place. Such thinking, however, has been brutalized and given mystic appeal by the materialism of much German philosophy. An awareness of the relation of war and peace in the German system of thought will do much to warn other peoples against traps that may be laid for them in German peace offensives. These traps, it should be understood, are not very different whether set in a Nazi "peace" ambush or in one that uses as a decoy the overthrow of Hitler in favor of the Generals. The object of such moves is to catch the free world in the snare of a "cheap peace." No one knows better than a German militarist that there is no such thing. The rest of us shquIdJfnbw it, too, by now. A WARTIME X mas We suggest that Christmas Shoppers this year be patriotic and buy VICTORY BONDS OR WAR SAVING CERTIFICATES.
