WAR

BONDS

WASHINGTON — Lately the
State Department has been issu-
ing a number of well-documented
volumes on foreign affairs of more
than usual interest to the lay
reader. The most recent of these,
at the present writing, is called
"National Socialism—Basic Prin-
ciples, Their Application by the
Nazi Party's Foreign Organiza-
tion, and the Use of Germans
Abroad for Nazi Aims."
That title, awkward though it
is, pretty well describes the hook's
contents. It is called a "White
Book," because it is bound in
heavy white paper. That circum-
stance, together with the State
Department seal on the cover, the
quiet type of the title, the 510
pages of close text indexes and
charts, all combine to give it an
air of authority and significance.
But something else about the
mere physical appearance of the
volume lends added vit idness to
its analysis. Scattered through the
documents translated in the latter
half, are facsimiles of German
originals—pamphlets, letter, news-
papers. Looking at them, one
notes idly that they are nearly
all—except for the typewritten or
mimeographed material—in the
crabbed Gothic type the Nazis
favor. That fact recalls how be-
fore the advent of Hitler, German
printers were gradually adopting
more beautiful and legible Roman
types. The cheap, handsome vol-
umes that German presses used
to turn out in great quantities
and varieties were evidence of
this.
Then came Hitler. The Nazis
discovered that Gothic type was
"volkisch"—racial, national—and
Roman type foreign, decadent, its
use fostered by some alien inva-
sion of the pure German spirit.
So, to the disgust of rational
printers and readers, the old, eye-
ti•ing, foolishly elaborate Gothic
fount returned to almost all

the human species." This is the
attitude taken by Lord Vansit-
tart, formerly permanent under-
secretary at the British Foreign
Office; the authors of such books
as "Germany Must Perish" and
certain serious, otherwise liberal-
minded anthropologists.
This type of argument has at
least one immediate, bad effect.
Dr. Goebbels dotes on it. lie takes

volume by the State Department.
Take for instance the statement
quoted from Karl Friedrich Schle-
gel, romantic philosopher of a
century and a half ago:
"When older and purer and
more unmixed the racial stock,
the more national customs it will
have, the more national customs
and steadfastness and attachment
to these, the more it will be a
nation."
The ideal nation, according to
this Nazi-revered standard, would
he the Hottentots or Trobriand
Islanders, than whom no nation
has more or more precious cus-
toms.
Or take this from Schlegel's
contemporary, the great Georg
Eilkelm Friedrich Hegel, who
said:
"The Volk as state is the spirit
in its substantial rationality and
direct reality, hence the absolute
power on earth."
Substantial rationality or not,
the Volk as state somehow got to
mean Nuremberg laws and
ghettoes.
Reading such statements and
recalling the practical interpreta-
tions given them by the Nazis,
sonic find it easy to say : "Well,
that's the Germans for you. It's
something inside all of them. They
don't make sense, just unreason
and brutality. The only thing to
do with them is exterminate them,
or at least breed the strain out of

a choice of Yiddish theater-goers.
Moyshe Oysher as the singing

any expression, or intimation of
this point of view from a Briton

or American of any authority and
dangles it frightfully before the
German people. "See," he says,
"this is what the United Nations
want to do to you. They would
exterminate every German they
could find, once you surrendered
to them. You might as well fight
through—it's your only chance."
It has another bad effect, and
possibly a more serious one, on
ourselves, for it represents a cer-
tain surrender to the Nazi point
of view. It accepts the Nazi con-
tention that the German "race"
is something distinct and apart
from the rest of the world—su-
perior or inferior as its .members
or non-members may conceive. It
represents the same type of
thinking as that of a certain edi-
torial writer for several widely
circulated newspapers, who re-
cently discovered that the "real
reason" we are fighting the Japa-
nese is that they have a yellow-
brown skin and "squinchy" eyes.
To some others, there seems
little use fighting the Nazis if we
are to adopt their most repugnant
ideas.
