Papa Franz, a Jew of German birth, has been attacking German racial theories for a quarter-century, and after the rise of the Third Reich his books were burned at Kiel. The Boas committee drew up a counter-manifesto condemning the Stark statement from beginning to end, decrying the "ruthless political censorship'' which is crippling science in Germany...

It placed the Kiel Regatta on a par of nautical swankness with Britain's Cowes Regatta. Last winter German socialites of the Kaiserlicher Club nearly provoked the Nazi brownshirt proletariat of Kiel to riot by announcing they would celebrate Jan. 27 the birthday of Der Kaiser. A clash was averted. The Kaiserlichers dined and roared "Hoch der Kaiser!", but Storm...
