ormer Professor Sees Filter's Old Bierhalle
Hulter's bierhalle, where the now-attended Nazi party formulated its passive ideals, was seen in 1936 Dr. E. F. Engel, former professor of German at the University. Professor Engel was in Germany that time with his family, as one of the nine educators sent by the url Schurz foundation at Philadelphia to study the educationalcem there. He is a former graduate of the University and was for years a faculty member.
This Munich beer hall," Dr. Enlil explained, "was one of many here young Germans met andemed fraternal groups called neibe."
"The bierhale is a traditional and "pular social institution for the buth who consume as many as 33 classes of beer in one evening." "It is there that under the influence of dring and soothing music the various movements of Germany have been started."

n. Engel was in Germany a num-
bler of times earlier and was able to
the country under the so-called
three reichs; first under the Kaiser,
Aden the ill-fated Weimar republic,
and finally under Adolph Hitler.
It was in 1923, he explained, that Germany was politically discontented and economically weakened so that the party felt strong enough to make its unsuccessful "putch." He continued the history of Hitler's rise to power by telling of his release from prison, and the election of the upshtart to the chancellorship in 1933. Their plurality was sufficient to defeat the 30 other German parties, whose wrangling brought the failure of the republic.

"It is at this time that his leaders credited him with saving the country from the violent communist party," he added.
Dr. Engel, on his visit to Potsdam, subburb of Berlin where Hitler became chancellor, stood in the pulpit of the Garrison church where the dictator made his promise to reassert the master race and avenge the Versailles treaty.
From the administrator of education in Berlin, Dr. Engel received a pass to enter any educational institutions in Germany. In 1936 he could see the Nazi ideology already stamped into the minds of the youth.
"I saw them stand and give the 'heil Hitler' salute, and I read the texts on German history that deliberately had been changed to coincide with Nazi beliefs," he explained.
"Hitler as a man," he concluded, "was an unimpressive person with a poor physique, but his gift of speech and vigor of address brought him his mass following."

While at West Point he won letters in baseball and football. Upon graduation he was commissioned a lieutenant in the infantry.

prised by Japs in the early morning, Tech. Sergt. Henry G: Bohlen of Kansas leaped from his foxhole, killed six and wounded more. That done he helped his buddies bring about the surrender of 125 and kill or wound another 45. Bravery won Bohlen a silver star.

General De Gaulle
Charles De Gualle, French leader, was born Nov. 22, 1890. He was exiled from France in 1940 and condemned to death by Marshal Petain's government because he set up a Provisional French National Committee in London with himself as head.
Zukhov Hailed As Efficient Red Chief of Staff
Described by the newspaper, Pravda, as one of the most brilliant Soviet officers, Georgi K. Zhukov, an expert with tanks and parachutes, was made chief of staff of the Russian army in February, 1941.
He entered the army in 1915 as a private. After the revolution in Russia he received an education and became prominent by his fighting in Mongolia in 1938.
Zhukov's slogan is "every man must fight like 10." That is the reason for the German defeat in Russia which he says was caused by the Germans being used to easy victories and "what they found here was real war that they were not ready for."

Means One Thing!
Now Is the Time for All of Us to Re-double Our Efforts to Bring World War II to a Close.
But the war is only half over. A powerful and cunning enemy is threatening our security in the west. He will use every device possible to defeat us.
Our boys are out there giving their lives for America. We at home can do our part by working at a defense job, eliminating absentism (Japan's 7th column), and by buying that extra War Bond. Let's Go America.
