 Dies has also found that some Italian schools tie in with these organizations, and among other things use books from Italy which glorify Mussolini.
 However, the most significant thing Is the creed of these Ger

 Dies has found e great similar ity between the instructions g;v- eA these agents and the program f. lowed by the agitators who rev the Sudetanland into chaos before Hitler marched Into Czechoslovakia.
