...best reason for the President's optimism is his belief that he can patch up his troublesome minority demands, particularly of the Sudetens, and thus spike Hitler's handiest excuse for an invasion. Father Andreas Hlinka, leader of a Slovak ecclesiastical party, has demanded autonomy for his racial group, but his party polled less votes than in previous years in the recent municipal elections. Other minority protests pull even less weight. But one Czechoslovakian minority problem the world will not forget in a hurry is that of the Sudetens...
Enfranchised Afrikander women regarded the poster as besmirching their honor, attended protest meetings throughout the country against this type of campaigning. More to their liking were the less graphic appeals of Prime Minister Hertzog, Deputy Prime Minister Smuts and henchmen, who declared vaguely for "national and racial unity," asked for support in the name of the "children's future."

I have found no anti-Semitic trend or temper in any of my conferences. . . . Because the last...
...unsuccessful petition for a referendum to recall the board of control. And last week white-haired, conservative Dean George Clarke Sellery, who was Wisconsin's interim acting president after Glenn Frank's ouster last year, pushed the university into the national limelight again by charging that racial bigotry had reared its head on Wisconsin's campus. Said he: "When an effort to put [the Cardinal] into the hands of a different group for next year is supported by an appeal to race prejudice, I am in arms...
