Mr.. Editor:

Mr.. Editor:
We have with us on the lee
ture course in a few days, DR..
Steiner. / have just read one of
his books with pleasure and pro-
fit. DR.. Steiner was born and
educated in Germany. He says:
Coming to this country a pro-
duct of Germanic civilization,
knowing intimately the slavic,
semitic and Latin spirit, the writ
er was compelled to compare
and to choose"
He says he loves this country
with a lovers passion and / am
sure America has been made
better by his presence in this
country. l hope every German
from Richland to Hover will be
out to hear him and I know that
Kennewick will prove by its at
tendance that we have no i'll will
towards the German people OF
their language but we do abhor
those in our midst who would aid
and abet that indescribable mon
ster that is causing more blood
shed, tears, sorrows, heartaches
and woes than any other since
the morning stars sang together.
DR.. Steiner visited the old
country before the war and met
many old friends, and among
them an old gentleman and his
wife, whom he calls the Herr Di-
rector and Frau Directoire. The
Herr Director had made a hur-
ried trip or two thru the United
States and had a very poor opin-
ion of our country. The doctor
