LAST MAIL FROM GERMANY
THE information in letters found on the German deadly intimate and personal as it is, leads to some striking deductions. The people inside Germany hate the war and want it to end. They are tired of hardships, sick of sacrifice. They lament the moral disintegration of their young women? they shudder at air raids; they weep over their dead. But nowhere do they betray the least suggestion of German guilt or regret for horrors which the German/ armiea perpetrate. Hard as is their life, they know ther starvation nor desperation. Nor do they expect Germany to Ibse the war. To expect them at this time to re* volt against Hitler is as futile and puerile as to expect the Fuehrer to live up to his promise or treaties. Diaries of the German dead, particularly Nazi officers, support these conclusions. The Russians have gathered thousands of these —Maurice Hindus in the American Magazine.
