Distinguished Flying Cross for ex-
traordinary achievement In aerial

Sgt. Blacks Liberator had an en-
CINE knocked out over Germany and
shortly after the bomb run, fell out
of formation when flax smashed

hit the Yugo-Slav coast" Sgt. Black
said, "and the flax hit another en-
CINE. The plane began to lose alti-
tude and we did a lot of sweating
before the pilot finally got us on
the runway. Flying around with one
engine and another about to go out
is no fun"

Haushoffer who published an article
on the subject, he stated.
1.-The German people, not just the
Nazis, are responsible for this war;"
Ludwig said. 1T Is impossible to
excuse the German people and
blame the Nazis. The character of
the German people is such that the
Individual wants authority, he wants
to be strongest, the conqueror of
the world"
This characteristic was not the
invention Of Hitler. Only the bru-

Individual sense of responsibility
is not held by the German. He knows
only two things: to obey and to
command. The people obey with pas

cannot think for the fatherland.

Germany at once loses his person

machine and with the putting on of
his uniform believes himself part Of

This belief in the authority of

where he appeared for a lecture
sponsored by the Wyandotte Asso-

the uniform" he said.
Disarmament must be total. Con-
vert munitions factories to the max
ing Of non-military products, and do
not permit any German, postman,
internal revenue collector, or other
state employe, to wear a uniform"
DR.. Ludwig emphasized the neces-
sity of not Remembering Germany
as it would create nationalistic
feeling, intrigue and jealousy. In
stead he proposed isolation of the
old Prussian province which includes
the city of Berlin. Separate Prussia
with its Junkers and militarists
from the rest of Germany and the
next leader viii not be able to mo-
Billie the German nation. "All. Ger

have no desire to unite with them

Final point in his proposal was
education, which he said, should not
begin with the Declaration Of hide

philosophy. literature and music Of
Goethe, Schiller. Kant. Mozart. Dr..

in these. things, with supervisors for
each school whose duty it would be
to see that the program was car
ried out to the fullest extent.
For ten years, DR.. Ludwig would
make it impossible, with few excep-
tons, for any German to leave the
country. Finally he would have the
people make reparation to the coun-
tries they have conquered and de-
stroyed. Under an Allied plan of
economy he would have German
factories give go pc: cent Of their
output for the use of countries Ger

cent of production would be for the
German state. In this way, he de-
clared, Germany can MAX true rep

inboard side of the boardwalk. The
other end of the line was then car

distance Of go feet and thence
through the open surf for distance
of about 100 feet to the remainder

the pier deck, fastened lighter line
to the corner Of the building and
lowered the three men to the detail

man to man along the lifeline to
safety.
II commend you for the fortitude
and courage which you displayed on
this occasion. Your actions were in
accord with the highest tradition of
the United States Coast Guard"

himself.
DR.. Ludwig pointed out that the
German language lacks words for
flair" and gentleman" and that
when it is necessary to use these
words, they are taken directly from
the English.
Understanding the German mind,
General Eisenhower did not extend
gentle hand to the people of the
country. When he invaded Germany
the general declared the Allied Ar
mics came as conquerors" and as a
result gained the admiration of the
people who recognized the Allies as
stronger than they and so believe
that they have been beaten" the
lecturer said.

three things must be done, Dr.. Lud-

cation.
