Calmly Der Feldmarschall ordered a police investigation, dictated his "profound regrets for such unchivalrous treatment'' which were duly conveyed to Widow Ebert. Later Nazi Captain Hermann Wilhelm Goring, Minister of Interior for Prussia (i. e. of police), apologized to Germany's George Washington's still trembling widow. Safe outside Germany where he says he will stay "because of Hitlerism," Professor Albert Einstein read last week that his home had been burst into and ransacked by Nazis who said they were "looking...
