In Taegliche Rundschau Herr Helm
rich Schaeff writes >as follows:
Let us be wise. Let us pray daily
to the Demon Of Wrath, let us turn
theory into practice, let us inspire
the whole of u people with virile
hatred Of the neny. so that every

Ito demonstrate what hatred really
can be II it be made truly national.
Nothing has beer so wanting in
the demon of vindictiveness. Moth

and for%1he service Of this debt we
need from f350.000, 900 to f400. o00,-
900. But in this direction practically
nothing has been done. The result
