BRUNETTE is MONEY SEEKER
Prof. L~anzendorf Makes Startling As
sertlons About Differences Be-
tween People.

Berlin.-Professor Lanzendorf OF
Vienna has bobbed into the limelight
this week with certain startling as
sertions about the difference between
light-haired and dark-haired people.
He has apparently taken up in earn
est the eternal discussion Of the SUI
perority of blends over brunettes.
The scientific tables and data
which he has collected are appalling
in their m~inuteness and volume. To
reduce the professors conclusions to
something like brevity. he finds that
80 per cent of the worlds great lit
erary men-artists, musicians. phi
losophers and scholars, as well as all
people who have ethical ideas and
high moral principles, are blends.
Black-haired people, he says, are
money Garner and brutal oppressors.
Professor Lanzendorfs statistics
show that 80 per cent. Of the gam
blers, swindlers. usurers, murderers
are dark complexioned. He notes with
grief that dark-haired people are get
ting money and depressing the fair
haired people, and ends by urging the
fair-haired contingent of humanity tc
fight against the dominance of their
stronger, but morally inferior black
haired conquerors.
