75 YEARS AGO

Adolf Hitler has succeeded once more in insulting every intelligent Asiatic by his thundering proclamation to a Nazi student rally in Munich of the (apparently divine) destiny of the white race to rule the world and the right of the European nations to colonize "backward nations."

If an insult were the only objectionable result of Hitler's address, it would be bad enough. But his championing of white supremacy and avowed attitude toward those sections of the world which he judges to be backward will be taken by all who think twice about it as a spectacular cloak for his policy of regaining the colonies Germany lost at the end of the World War.
