But Conservatives Alleged Fear of Racial Ruination
 Only Amuses Socialists.

The arrival here of copies of the German newspapers containing the protests voiced by many Pan Ger mans against even the idea of any German girl marrying a member of the occupying forces show that the cabled reports gave but an incomplete notion of the protestators. Writing in the Deutsche Zeitung of Berlin a cer- tain Herr Arwaker says:
 "A hundred and forty Americans have asked permission to contract matrtmony in Germany. A hundred and forty German women and girls lower themselves to the level of street women in order to be able to give their hands to the murderers of their brothers. An endless number of such marriages is said to be in prospect.
 Beware, German Michael! Not the shameful peace threatens you with destruction, not the machinations of political swindlers of the Scheide- mann type-but racial shame, with its consequences. You, German peo- pie, are to become a mixed people, made up of the interbreedings of the whole world menagerie of the enemy bearers of culture. This is the surest way lO luSuIt yOuT OO" 1llcllA- All 6ciIS GaIlician beggars are playing the role of master in the house that you have thus far kept clean"
 The Frankfort Volkestimme, a leading Majority Socialist paper of South Germany, in quoting from the outburst in the Deutsche Zeitung, re- marks:
 Besides, Herr Arwaker is not the only one haunted with racial fears. We have recently received a number of strange pamphlets warning Ger man women and girls against matri- monial alliances with negroes, Mon golians, Jews and such round heads because it means sure death for them! For it is said that the German woman Is so constituted that she can become the mother of only narrow headed children"
 Continuing his trade in the Deutsche Zeitung, Herr Arwaker, says:
 ''We shall use every means to pre- vent invasion by the blood of ne groes, French, Indians, Tonkinese, Yankees. and other bearers of cuI- ture. Those shameless women may enter in their love alliances. But we refuse to accept such couples as part of our people. Every German who has retained a spark of pride must make it his solemn duty to have neither personal nor business rela- tions with those shameless women and their tribe. There is no form of contempt strong enough to make these deflers of their own race realize their moral depravity."
 All of which moves the Volksstim- me to comment as follows:
 "Very well, Herr Arwaker; But do you know who must take first place among these street women and shameless ones? That large number of German princesses who have mar ried foreign princes; such as the sister of Wilhelm IT., who, in marrying the exchanged her Evangelical faith for the orthodox Catholic. Or the Olden- burg lady, the living widow of Car Alexander, the Mecklenburg ladies, and the divorced wife of the Grand Duke of Hesse. Are they, too, shame less women? And why only the wo- men? Why does Herr Arwaker for get the men? How about the Conser- vative leader, Count Reventlow, whose Is French, and Kaiser Fried rich. who married an English prin- cess? Whats sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander. Therefore, the Hohenzollerns also belong to the de filers of their own race who must be made to realize their moral de- pravity."
