THIS ` IDEA IS
BY B. K. SANDWELL
From Toronto Saturday Night
August 17th, 1940
The following is, in part, a
broadcast delivered over the na-
tional network of the C.D.C. on
Sunday, August 4, at 6.30 p.m., by
B. K. Sandwell, editor of Saturday
Night. It is: in reply to an article
in the August 3 issue of the "Sat-
urday Evening Post" of Philadel- :
phia.
Tile Germans are fond of drawing.
analogies between their favorite
method of warfare and the lightning
which strikes without warning from
the sky and blasts all in its path of,
destruction. They. have themselves
named their method the Blitzkrieg or
lightning war, But there is one im-
portant respect in which the analogy
is ill-omened for the Germans them-
selves. Lightning must do its job at
the first stroke. If it sets the house
on fire in the split second of its im-
pact, well and good. But if it does
not,'it cannot return and try it again,
Lightning does not strike twice in
the sante place; and the thunder
which reverberates for a long time
after the lightning .has ceased to do
anything is not dangerous. The light-
ning war of Germany succeeded—it
set fire to the house — in Poland,
Norway, Holland, Belgium, and fin-
ally France. It has not yet suc-
ceeded, and it looks as though it may
never succeed, in Great Britain,1
where—to push the analogy a little
further — the provision of lightning -
rods is on•a vastly larger scale than
in those' unfortunate countries. And
if the lightning fails, the Germans
have ho other weapon against Brit-
ain, while Britain has many against
Germany.
I ant greatly encouraged in my be-
lief that lightning cannot set the
British house on fire, by my observa-
tion of the rise of a new technique
among those in the United States
who are certainly not the friends of
Britain, and who may therefore be
classified in the present circum-
stances as being at least no enemies
of Germany. This new technique is
the propagation of the doctrine that
'now is the time for the United States
to pick up the belligerents' by the
scruff of the neck, knock their heads
together, and tell them to shut up
and make peace "on reasonable
terns." This doctrine is expounded
at length in the current issue of a
popular United States weekly which
has been under repeated criticism in
Canada on the ground of anti-British
tendencies. The article is by Mr.
James D. Mooney, a business man
who has long been head of the Miro-
peen subsidiary of a great American
industrial corporation. I do not pro-
pose to discuss the article itself,
which is an entirely proper article
for an American business tan to
write in an American magazine while
GERMAN
the United States is neutral. I pro-
pose only to make a few observations
about
the significance fie
an
ce
of its timing.
The war has now been going on far
a year, during which period it ,has
consisted of a' series. of lightning
successes for Germany in areas
which could be effectively invaded
either by land or, over a short sea
barrier, by air, These successes have
been accompanied by the complete
failure of Ges utany to break down
the sea -power blockade — a slow-
operating weapon= which is effected
against her by Great Britain.
•
Neither at the beginning of this
year of war nor at any stage of it
until the present time has there beet
any suggestion by any American
friend of either side that the United
States should intervene to compel'
peace; this is the first, If the United
States. can 'compel peace now, it
could certainly have compelled peace
in August 1939, before the .popula-
tion of Poland was massacred. Why
was not Mr. Mooney then calling
upon .his government, as he is now
calling upon it, "to, state bluntly and
frankly to the rulers of Germany and
England 'that we (the American
people) insist upon an end to the
holocaust—to this insane and dis-
graceful indictment of civilization?"
The indictment was just as insane
and disgraceful in 1939 as it is now;
but the • Germans then were pretty
confident of winning, and Mr. Moon-
ey was silent, and the magazine in
which he writes was frantically
urging that the United States must
have nothing to do with this war one
way or the other. The gains of Ger-
many were then just beginning, they
are now at their peak; the losses of
Germany are about t o begin, a n d
what Mr. Mooney proposes would ar-
rest them, would perpetuate the pol-
itical structure of Europe at the
point where Germany's power is the
greatest she can ever expect to at-
tain and far greater than, she can re-
tain without American aid.
Mr, Mooney. talks as if the Am-
erican intervention to compel peace
would be equally effective to mod-
erate the terms demanded by Britain
and the terns demanded by Germany
so that the settlement reached would
necessarily be one which Americans
could regard as "reasonable." On
that point we Hurst remember that
what be is proposing is an immediate
settlement; and that the only bellig-
erent to whom the United States can
apply any immediate pressure i s
Britain, to whom she could refuse to
sell any further war supplies, with
obviously ruinous effect. The only
leverage the United States can apply
to Germany is the threat to enter
the war against her, an action which
might have unpleasant consequences
for Germany a few years from now,
but could hardly snake any apprec-
iable difference at the moment; in-
deed it is highly arguable that it
would help her by diverting Ameri-
can effort from the defence of Srit-
ain to the home defence of America.
You have therefore a position ; in
which the self-appointed mediator
could instantly runt one of the bellig-
erents and could do little or nothing
to damage the other for some years;
and it is not hard to imagine which
side would have to make all the con-
cessions in an agreement forced upon
the belligerents by such a anediator,
Mr. Mooney recognizes that the
American people at large, to whom
he addresses, himself, are not so
friendly to Germany as to wish to
act aa her stooge in effecting a
settlement of the war on her terns,
and he therefore represents his pxop-
osal as designed to save Britain from
the appalling' consequences of her
own, or rather her government's
stubbornness. "Our friends, the
English," he observes, "are taking a
hell of a beating, and it is about time
for us to help them if we expect' to
substantiate our sympathy in any
kind of sincere way." His method of
substantiating American sympathy
for "England" is to tell her that she
can hope for no more aid from the
United States unless she accepts
whatever terms Germany can be in-
deiced to make and,the United States
to endorse at this point in the war—
with Germany and Russia between
them in control of the whole of
Europe except Great Britain.
I suggest that the nature of the
proposal shows that it is a German
proposal, and that the fact that it
is made at this moment show's that
Germany is by no means confident of
being able to destroy the effective-
ness of the British Isles as a base of
supply and operation for the British
fleet. And if Germany cannot destroy
the British Isles in that sense, she
has lost the war, and will ultimately
lose all that she has temporarily
gained by her lightning methods.
Mr. Mooney's solicitude for those
whom be calls "our friends the Eng-
lish" did not become vocal until after
the defeat, of France. He was not con-
cerned while the French and the
Poles were taking what he calls "a
snowy
a
hell orf a beating," although they
were the allies of "our friends the
English" and are generally supposed
to have been pretty good friends of
the Aanericans also, He was not cone
termed 'while the Norwegians, Data,,
and Belgians were taking a hell of a
beating, not for being allies of "our
friends the English" but merely for
being in the way between them and
the Germans. But he is concerned
now for "our friends the Egnlish,"
who as a matter of solid fact are
taking and are liking to take much
Iess of "a hell of a beating" than
any of these other innocent and
ravaged nations, and who may wind
up by not taking a hell of a beating
at all. For the reason why Germany
wants people like Mr. Mooney to Pros
mote peace intervention by the 'limit-
ed States is simply that the German
lightning war looks as if it will not
Work against Great Britain,.
