Show The Worship Of Pover Why Is It that a man like Adoli' Hitler, who has so viola:-ed viola:-ed Die prinripalM of honor and oppressod conquered jx-op s ciaiellv-, .'..-I hi ahlo to R.-t ad in-rciits all over the woihi? 1,1 alino.'. eviry rotinii'y he finds admirers.

The answer seems to he that in every land therej are many people who worship power. They will follow anyone who seems likely to win success. In the .South American countries, for instance, thoy no doubt promise people high official positions if they will aid I lie Nazi cause in those lands, and they win people by flattery flatt-ery and promises of political and business success. The American people should be too bright and too wide awake to present dangers to bo led around in any such way. The fact that a man wins success and power up to a certain exitent does not prove he will always be successful. Yet people peo-ple point to Hitler and say he has succeeded in everything he ha-i atlempited so far, because all who resist him have been beaten down and trampled under foot. It has been the history of the past that the men who have perpet rated great wrongs have finally met their match. They created such a vast multitude of enemies, they stirred such desperate anger, that the world united to ithrow them down. Tho Bible says that pride goeth before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall. The men who go too far find they have overlooked elements of weakness that finally produce pro-duce their ruin. |
