burg party. the writer tells OF the readiness with
which the natives grasped the modern idea" At

which set up by natives. "It took only few
weeks of instruction the part OF the German
perts to make good workInen of the natives. who
now go about the work though they lad served
years OF apprenticeship He says In his last letter.:
What misses in the colonies is the middle class
the farmer element The basis OF the social pyramid
Is missing. Colonial history teaches US that not
the large. but the small plantations help the prog
ress of a country. But can one encourage emigra-
ton TO East Africa when may acquire panta-

the future the execution has been described In de-
tail in the current issue of the 'Zeitschrift fur
das gesamte Strafrechtswesen." Dr. FreudenthaI
recommends that electricity not substituted for
the galows the block anywhere where these
are stin employed for. while an execution bv the
