Nevertheless bald and owlish Dr. Otto Braun, the Socialist Leader who has ruled as Premier of Prussia for eleven years at the head of a rock-firm Socialist-Centrist coalition, was still last week in power. It was estimated that Dr. Braun will be able to muster 162 seats when the Diet convenes in June. Thus his coalition strength would exactly equal the strength of the Fascist Party alone.

...whom were intellectual and only one of whom he married (17 years after their child was born). Eleven of Goethe's women are named by the Encyclopedia Britannica which emphasizes that he had many another. Last week, addressing young U. S. females at Barnard College, Professor Wilhelm Braun cried: "The charm of Goethe's matchless personality is explained not by the universality of his genius but by the splendid normality of his life.
