Chicago Daily News Foreign Correspondent.
BERLIN. Oct. 12.-Once upon a
time long ago, in a region centerlng
in Lubbock and extending as far north
.as Stockholm and as far south as
Brunswick, a heroic race of men
we're born who, setting out from this
region, have since created everything
which the world today calls clvlll-
zation.
These supermen were tall, long
legged and slender, with broad
shoulders and narrow hips, their
hair was blond, their skins fair and
their eyes pale, usually blue or blue
gray
This race was-and is-the Nordic,
or Aryan race, according to Nazi
teachings This is its origin, these
are its outstanding physical char
acteristics, and these, succinctly sum-
married. are its achievements, as the
Nazi report them This is the race
which the Nazis say they want to
preserve and increase as part OF their
program of selecitve human breeding
in the Third Reich
Nordics the Finest Race.
The first proposition of Nazi race
dogma is the proposition that mems
physical, mental and moral character
istics are all conditioned by their race.
The second proposition is that the
Nordics are the best of all races.
Hitler repeatedly insists on what he
says are the superior virtues OF the
Nordics or Aryans
What we see around us today OF
human kultur, OF achievements in
art. science and technique, is almost
exclusively the creative product of the
Aryan," the Chancellor writes in
"Mein Kampf," his autobiography and
confession of faith,
Precisely this fact, however, JUS
tifes the conclusion that he (the
Aryan) absolutely and alone was the
founder of higher humanity, and
therefore constitutes the original type
OF that which we understand by the
term human being" Hitler goes on.
And IF he is eliminated, deep dark
ness will again descend upon the earth,
perhaps in only few thousand years,
human civilization will disappear and
the world will revert to desert" the
Chancellor says.
Aryans Created Jap Culture.
The Aryans created japanese cul-
ture, for example. among others, Hit
Ter writes. 1t was American and Euro
pean Aryans who conferred civilization
on Japan, the chancellor says, and if
the stimulating AIyan influence should
be withdrawn Japan would lapse into
the cultural sleep" from which the
Aryans wakened it.
Perhaps the only useful part which
inferior non-Aryan peoples played in
the cultural achievements of the Nor
dies was to provide the necessary la
Dor supply, Hitler says. Thus the nom
Aryan subhumans served much the
same purpose as horses In fact, the
AryanS sometimes used their inferior
subject peoples as draft animals, the
chancellor reports.
only paciflstic fools can regard this
as sign of depravity, however," Hitler
says, failing to understand that this
development had to take place in order
finally to achieve the position (of ad-
= vancement) from which today these
apostles inf1ict their drivel on the
world"

An adequate public school build

the list of local needs for the ap-

terday by Chairman King of the
Senate District Committee.
Future school buildings. he said,
should be planned with more en-

improvement of traffic conditions,
with some form of pedestrian con-
troll as an added feature.
With regard to the new District

wait until the House brings out
the measure before considering
what the Senate committee should

Fair Taxation Group
Explains Position
On Estimates
Downward Revision of
Figures on Income
Levy Denied

The Citizens Committee on Fair
Taxation yesterday reiterated its
estimates of the amount of money
that can be raised in the District
through a net income tax based on
moderate" rates.
The Star had stated Friday that
a letter from Mrs. John Boyle, jr.,
president, to Chairman Daniel j.
Donovan of the Commissioners Tax
Advisory Committee stating that an
income tax with top of 8 per cent
would raise s5,5Oo,OOO constituted
a downward revision in the COM
mittee's earlier estimate, set at
from $7,000,000 to $7,50O,00O.
"The major point made in the
article, as reflected by the head
line" Mrs. Boyle said today, was
that our committees estimate of
how much revenue could be raised
by a personal net income tax had
been revised downward"
I'm our letter we specifically
stated" she continued, that such
a tax with rate of 6 per cent on
corporate net income and top rate
Of 10 per cent on personal net in
come would yield approximately
$10,0O0,0OO."
This, she said, does not constitute
downward revision of estimate in
asmuch as the same point was
made in a brief filed with the Com
missioners' committee.
However" Mrs. Boyle explained,
'in our letter yesterday it was
stated that corporate net income
tax at per cent and a personal
income tax with a top rate of 8
per cent would yield approximately
So 900, 900. But such a combination,
with lower rates, is not to be COM
pared with the combination sug-
gested in the brief. Obviously, q
lower yield would result from q
lower effective rate"
Mrs. Boyle said it was important
that her committees position be
correctly understood since one of
the arguments advanced against in
come tax is that the rates might be
excessive" Such argument has no
validity whatever, she maintained.

Marriage Wait Rule
Is in Prospect
For Fairfax
Record Established
Yesterday, With 30
Licenses Issued

Fairfax County, Va last night
stood ready to invoke the delayed"
marriage ban, already imposed by
Alexandria and Arlington following
a rush yesterday in which 30 licenses
were issued to set record for the
county.
The only factor expected to pre-
vent Fairfax officials from setting
up 72-hour delay was a return to
normal activity after the Christmas
holiday, which was blamed for a
large part of yesterdays license busi-
ness.
County Clerk John NJ Whalen
said the only reason a three-day-
wait law had not yet been invoked
was that he realized many persons
came to Washington to get married
at Christmas.
Four Refused Licenses.
-Four couples were refused licenses
at Fairfax yesterday because the
clerks questioned their age. They
were told to produce birth certifi-
Gates or bring their parents to the
courthouse to give their consent.
None returned. however.
The Fairfax rush started at 10
am. after only four licenses had
been issued during the first hour
of business. 1t ended abruptly at
noon, although the Office kept open
until l pm. After that many cou-
pies went to the clerks home, but
Mr.. Whalen adhered strictly to his
decision not to issue licenses after
regular Office hours.
1t developed yesterday that, al
though Fairfax has a civil marriage
officer, he has not been performing
any marriages since the boom be-
gan.
officials refused to disclose his
identity and said no civil mar
riages were being performed in
the county "by agreement" in an
effort to prevent Fairfax from ac-
quiring a Gretna Green reputation.
Most of the marriages during the
recent boom in Alexandria and
Arlington were performed by the
civil marriage officers All those in
Fairfax have been religious cere-
monies.
Activity in Winchester.
Reaction to the edicts of Alex
andria and Arlington officials and
Marylands 48-hour wait period also
were noted at Winchester, Va,
where a total of 81 licenses were
issued last week. About IS were
sold yesterday.
Winchester officials said they were
exercising great care in issuing
licenses and refusing applications
where there is any doubt of the age
of the principals. They do not ex-
pect any delay rule to be imposed
there.

Mrs. Roosevelt, winding up per-
haps her busiest Christmas eve, dur
ing which she spread cheer at half
a dozen services for the destitute,
stood after nightfall in the poverty
and gloom of Shows court, COM
munity of alley dwellers off Twenty
fourth and K streets NV, and bade
the people of these stark homes a
merry Christmas.
The normal darkness of the alley
was broken by a bright-ighted tree
which looked strangely incongruous
in the setting.
Near the tree were still more alien
appliances-two sound trucks from
the Columbia Broadcasting System.
Some Of the alley residents had
never seen such contrivance close
up before. The music and the words
of Mrs. Roosevelt were carried to the
whole Nation from this tucked-away,
often-forgotten slum.
Il want to say" she said, "how
glad I am that year by year our
alleys are getting better. And
want to wish every one of you
merry Christmas and better things
during the new year."
Motor Is Silenced.
While Mrs. Roosevelt was talking
truck, its driver oblivious to what
was going on. thundered into the
alley, silencing her voice. Four
policemen rushed up, and, after
some difficulty, silenced the motor,
The group huddled about the tree
received food and gifts from the
Woman's Council of the Federation
of Churches. The tree was the Gift
Of the Florence M. Black Glass of
Calvary Baptist Church.
Mrs. Roosevelt's official day start
ed at $3.50 am. and wound up long
after dark. Between times she
managed to greet her children and
grandchildren and other White
House guests and executive en-
ployes.
She went to the final CEREMONY
in the northwestern alley-from the
community Christmas tree at La
fayette Park, to which she accom-
panied the President and members
Of the family.
Earlier in the afternoon Mrs.
Roosevelt attended the annual
Christmas party of the Salvation
Army at the chapel at 6O6 E street
