G-E 8 THE MIC"IGAN DAI LY [UESDAY, NOV. 30, 193 Preitss Terms NaiInfluence Bad or orld Present German Racial Theory Is Deleterious To Peace And Tranquility The racial theory, upon which the present German government is founded, has a deleterious effect on world peace, Prof. Lawrence Preuss, of the political science department, said, speaking on "Germany and the National Socialistic State" at the first Union forum, held at 4:30 p.m. Sun- day in the Small Ballroom of the Union. Hitler's ideal of "preserving the purest racial element in the state" leads to a feeling of superiority on the part of the German people, releasing the inferiority complex which they have had since the World War, Pro- fessor Preuss said. The racial theory, which attempts a complete renovation of German thought as to what Germans of the present day ought to be, is a domin- ating influence in German law-na- tional, international and criminal, he said. Germany today is trying to purge the law of its Roman and Jewish in- fluence and to restore it on a basis of primitive German law, for, ac- cording to Hitler, Nordic law is the only pure German law, and true law can be established only by the Nor- dics, Professor Preuss continued. Hitler applies his racial theory to criminal law as is illustrated in the "Blood Purge" of 1934. He enacted his reforms and got the sanction of the court later, saying that he acted for the good of the people, and so needed no preliminary sanction, Pro- fessor Preuss stated. The racial theory makes a hollow mockery of international law, Pro- fessor Preuss said, as it includes the idea that there can be legal com- munity only between members of like races, and consequently separates the world into a nmmber of mutually hos- tile races. The effect of the racial theory on German thinking is to reduce it to a dead level of monotony, and to de- stroy the reputation of great thinking for which Germany has so long been noted, Professor Preuss concluded. A half hour discussion followed the talk. Student Is Injured By Police Scout Car Collision with a police scout car knocked Joseph F. Juliar, '41, uncon- scious early yesterday morning, but he was not seriously injured. The accident occurred on Waslitenaw Avenue, near the University Museum. Traffic Officer Conrad E. Miller, driver of the police car, took Juliar to the University Health Service, where he regained consciousness and was treated for several cuts and bruises. The injured stpdent remained in the health service last night, al- though his condition was "not se- rious."
