...nations of the world are faced with the issue of determining whether relations shall be characterized by international anarchy and lawlessness or by principles of fair play, justice and order under law. No nation and no government can avoid the issue; neither can any nation avoid participation, willing or not, in the responsibility of determining which course of action shall prevail...
...trial which had filled the press of New York City and the nation with surprises for a month, this was a fittingly strange ending. For grinning Jimmy Hines and alert Attorney Stryker, it was a masterstroke.

I believe the German people, as well as the Czechs, Slovaks and all others, desire to work together in quiet. . . . I have always been an optimist and my optimism today is greater than ever. I have an unshakable faith in the State, in its health, in its power, in its ability to withstand pressure, in its splendid army and in the unshakable spirit of the whole people. . . . I believe that...
