By R. G. CLARK

The argument put forth by our

olationist friends, who say that

dolf Hitler has no designs upon

Rmerica, leaves me unconvinced

cause of an experience I had

arly five years ago.

In January, 1937, 1 was lravel-i

ng on a little freight boat. €n

ute from Galveston, Texas, to

rt au Prince, Haiti. There were

ly five passengers and, because

e ship was small and slow, we

ve people came to know each

her quite well. We played domi

s with the Captain in the eve

ng, played cards with each oth

and did a lot of talking.

One of these passengers was a

ne appearing, genial young man

out 25 years old. I was undecid

whether he was an Englishman

a German. We will call him

rman, because that was not his

me. He spoke p@fect English

d he told me that he could also

ak German, French, Spanish

d Italian. The Captain said he

oke Spanish like a native.

One night Herman and I re

ained on the little deck rather}

te and our conversation came

ound to international affairs. It

s then that he told me that he

i« a German, a member of the

zi- party, and that he was trav

ing over the world acting as

observer for Hitler. He stated

phatically that he was not a

v and that his activities were

pitimate. He merely cOncentrat

on seeing things that would be

value to the Feuhrer, for whom

had a fanatical love. He trav

ed on freighters so as to be in

nspicuous.

ut that was not the significant

ing he told me. What followed

s, five years fafter, convinced

that Hitler does have designs

us and on the whole world
