MUST BE OCCUPIED

GERMANY AFTER THE WAR SHOULD LAST A LONG TIME Eniil Ludwig. Llie noted German author, lias declared at Los Angeles that after the United Nations' victory, Germany must be occupied by an army of soldiers and teachers, none of whom are Germans, and that, the occupation should last a long time. He adds; "A Gallup poll shows that 70 per cent of Americans feel they are fighting against Hitler and not against the German people. This is a false and dangerous belief, which will lead to the same deception as the last Avar. "The German warrior people, as an entity guided by its intelligents ; first followed the Kaiser, and now follows a proletarian in its desire to conquer the world. Hitler is Germany. We can effectively protect ourselves against the passion of the German people for war. only by taking from their hands for a certain time three things that were left to them in "the Versailles Treaty— arms, education and government. "What I propose is not punishment but a temporary declaration of political immaturity."
