...outside the supreme courthouse. Many were women?for thrifty German housewives particularly dislike paying reparations, have swallowed eagerly the brash Fascist promises to repudiate the Young Plan. As Herr Hitler's motorcar swirled up the women pelted him with flowers. As this medium sized man with a small blond mustache but hard, blue, twinkling eyes stepped out, soprano voices cried "Ach, der schöne Adolf!" (Ah, handsome Adolf!).

Sometimes one wins, sometimes the other, but it is always a great...

...course of the operetta has its normal ups and downs until the beginning of Act II, when all of a sudden blond, curly-headed Mr. Robertson starts a rough & tumble fight with Mr. Clements over the favors of Miss Terry.

It is really a swashbuckling, galvanated musical drama, of the sort which appeals to a faintly sadistic expectancy on the part of its spectators...
