LATE BEST SELLER IS REVIEWED HERE Roy Donxer Discusses Publication by Helmut Kuhn The pressing and vital problem of "what to do with the Germans" came under discussion last night at the Washington County Free Library, when Roy Danzer review- the international problems, "Freedom Forgotten and Remembered" by Helmut Kuhn. Called "Hagerstown's Will by John B. Ferguson In the introduction, Mr. Danzer turned to the serious aspects of the Ideologies that led to the present conflict, as set forth in the Kuhn volume. The reviewer stated at the out- the worth and value of a book is by asking three questions, who, what, and why.

First considering "who," he sketched briefly the history of Helmut Kuhn, German who fought Tdth the German Army In the first World War at the age of 15, later fell into the Nazis' favor, and now holds a position at the University of South Carolina. The greater portion of Mr. Dan- zer'g review was devoted to the "what." The book, Mr. Danzer said, never states definitely whether the mass of the German people were behind Hitler, but argues that they were ready to ac cept the Hitler regime as result of the critical condition In their nation in 1933. The churches fell down on the job of denouncing the dictatorship, the universities feared for their own existence, and the Jews suffered because they were a ready object to pick on.

Mr. Danzer pointed out that he believes Kuhn did not emphasize sufficiently the deadly effect of rerman regimentation: Nietzsche's atheistic influence on the German mind and the lack of a 'home spun philosophy" -were two more causes contributing to the rise to power of Hitler, the reviewer declared. One of the main messages of the book is that Ger many must be educated Into a "right way of thinking" after the war, he added, by means of a continuance of the present alliance during the peace to come. "Why" the book was written, Mr. Danzer said, was for the purpose of propaganda: that we may profit by the lessons of the present in the years to come.

But, the reviewer concluded, the danger is ever present that the United States will be merely big, not great. Next Monday evening, Dr. Vtr non M. Kellett, headmaster at St James' School, will conclude the 1943-44 series of reviews at the Washington County Free Library. GREEK EASTER MARKED Mr.
