Some very sensible views have been

Germany's foremost critic, in a recent
essay on The Jewish Question in Eu-

IF you are logical. you are called
hcartless. If you have a heart. you
are called weaklings. If you are made
prisoners, you are called clumsy. If
you are quick witted. you are callct.
superficial. If you have strength of
character, you are called cgotists. If
you are bent on making the world bet
