This week these scattered pieces appeared in book form under the title, Caesars in Goosestep. All the little Caesars were there with their records up to date. There was Dr. Paul Josef Goebbels, whom his fellow Rhinelanders call "Jupkin" (insignificant little Joe), and who is so non-Aryan-looking that a policeman once tried to stop him from entering a Nazi rally. "Better not go in there, buddy," said the cop. "They're all anti-Semites." There was the only normal Nazi, Rudolf Hess, called "Fraulein" because he is hysterical Hitler's nursemaid and governess. There...
...Powers in World War I, pioneer advocate of big-scale transoceanic air service ("Give me wings large enough and sufficient motive power and I'll take the earth for an airplane ride"); of heart disease; in Mecklenburg, Germany. After the advent of Nazi power, Designer Rumpler was non-Aryan enough to be benched, big enough to remain in Germany...
...neatly along their Führer's academic path. Patriotism, heroism, war and svelte, 100% Nordic nudes dominated the show, with many busts and figures of Mussolini and Critic Hitler thrown in for good political measure.

Fritz's transformation from a windy but amiable young donkey into an expert instrument of hatred remains awesome even in a world where it has happened so often. Gradually father, mother, sons, see their world wavering around them, its old, familiar outlines dissolving...
...Waterloo, British officers danced till dawn. Last week, as another no less significant zero hour approached, Germans did equally strange things. Adolf Hitler, as well as Field Marshal Hermann Wilhelm Goring, Dr. Paul Joseph Goebbels, Goring's half-Aryan Air Chief of Staff, Colonel General Erhard Milch, and numerous high Army officers all went to the theatre. Ordinary Germans flocked to the just opened Kurfurstendamm street cafes where young couples enjoyed the privacy of darkness, and oldsters listened to the newest song hit, Woodpecker's Serenade. Foreign correspondents switched off their teletypes and went home to bed. When...
