NO GERMANIC RACE,
SAYS HISTORIAN
French Author SCOTS at Idea of
Purity and Antiquity
of Nation.

Camille Julian, the eminent author
Of the "lIistory OF Gaul," has begun
before the Academic des Inscriptions
ct Bellies Lettres the reading of a
study on "The Problem Of the Origin
of the Germanic Peoples
While for a hundred years, he SAID
French science has been developing the
idea of nationality German science
has been developing the idea OF race,
applying il to GermanIc origin. AT
this moment the current notion in Ger
many is that of purity and antiquity
Of the Germanic race. They say II Is
a race sui generis, whether some con-
slider the Germans as lndo-E European
neopla or whether others consider
them more ancient than lndo-Euro-
peans.
NJ Julian believes, on the con-
trary. that there IS no Germanlc
race apart from those lndo- European
elements of Germany, on which II Is
unnecessary to lay stress. The Ger
mans have a quantity Of linguistic, So
cial and moral elements which are con-
trary 10 all that we know Of the lndo-
European patrimony. These elements
have double origin. Some must nave
come. according 10 the theory OF
Plutarch, from the plains OF Scythia;
the others. according TO the theory Oh
Tacitus, from the swamps and foresIs
of Brandenburg.
AT all events, there Is not IN Ger
many a race There are contributions
from all sides. Moreover, II IS couh-
try which has not natural frontiers,
and which lies on the great routes OF
invasion. particularly those between
Asia and Europe
