...firm which publishes both Kampf and Beobachter. Fortnight ago another Berlin newspaper, founded by Jews, nosed the Realmleader's organ out of first circulation place (TIME, April 29). No man to take this lying down is Max Amann. Two years ago Employer Hitler made him President of the Chamber of the German Press with vast theoretical powers. They came in handy last week. Crystalizing them with swift pen strokes, Nazi Max ripped out and signed three decrees mak-ing himself on their face Master of the Press...

This is proof positive of the legislators' patriotism and 100 per cent Americanism--at last to the American Legion, Elks and similar organizations who have waged the fight for its passage. It would be almost unfair to remind them in the glow of their present partial success that patriotism in days past meant staunch support of American traditions such...
