Danzlg is one Of the most strongly
fortified cities in the world, and has
been 50 through its history. II was q
free city through centuries for the
same reason that most free cities Of
the marauding ages were free-be-
cause its people had seized upon the
naturally powerful defensive topog-
raphy of the country surrounding,
and made its defenses almost lmpreg--
nable. 1t was too tough nut for the
kings Of the middle ages to crack
with their armies, SO they graclously
allowed 1t to be free. Under the for.
nier German emperor. Ns militaristic
aspect was even more accentuated
than II was In the days when II was
one Of the "BIg Four Of the Han
seattle league. With Konigsberg, Thorn

Where would he stop?
In the chill white aisle of the corri-

of bitter cold. A chill white nurse led
him past doors and doors to room
