AS in London and Paris, so in Ber-
i'm women are running the street cars
and waiting on the tables in restaur-
ants. AS war seems to be demonstrate
ing that the male sex is entirely SUI

the Hymn of Hate is interesting;
it may even be significant. But it is
not to be expected that this attitude
of consideration for Germany's en-
emies and thought for the future can
