U. S. AND GERMANY By Satrrusontan

An American organization which exists for the purpose of interesting the American public in foreign affairs, "The Foreign Policy Association" recently published a report by one of its members on the present Telations between the United States and Germany. Tt found these to be characterized by "growing friction and ill-will'

Antagonism between the United States and Germany the report stated did not arise from current disputes between the two countries nor from any danger of attack by one country on the other, but from "the impact of Nazi ideology and. polities on American opinion."

American public opinion has shown a striking hostility towards Germany ever since Hitler came to power in 1933. The blows struck by National Socialism at the cherished American doctrine of individual Uberty; at Jews, trade unions and the Catholic Church its espousal of militaristic and racial theories have awakened active dislike and resentment in the American population at large.
