...Work Camp: Forerunner to Collectivism," by M. S. Friedman '43 and N. Lauriat '43, is a competent description of a growing institution, but it fails completely to prove its thesis.

"There are also Americans who argue that if Hitler should conquer Great Britain he would be content to stop there, and that the United States would be able to cooperate happily with the Hitler Empire of Europe. To believe this is to misunderstand the entire nature of the Nazi system. . . . Were Germany to try to resume the ways of peace, the military discipline which is the very foundation of the Nazi hierarchy would crumble. In order to continue in power that hierarchy must continue to lead Germany on new predatory adventures...
