REFUGEES FROM GERMANY
Criticism Evokes An Answer
Berlin, Jan.
An official German reply to the memorandum by Mr. J. G. Mac Donald, resigning his post as League High Commissioner for re- fugees from Germany because of intensified persecution of the Jews; has been issued by a German news agency.
...
The reply states that becauple Germany is at last endeavouring to straighten out abuse and do- mination by foreign elements, two- ple in many parts of the world thought they were authorised to utter derogatory criticism of 'Cher - ¦ many and give Germany advice while the same world remained mute to all persécutions of Ger- mans, beginning with the Ver sailles Treaty and extending to the recent expulsion and expatriation
to anti-democratic uses. But the people of Czechoslovakia have re- mained constant in their devotion to Masaryk from the day he was appointed President of the infant Republic after the Austrian Em- pire had crashed and lay broken in pieces as it fell
There have been more "dazzling careers than his, for he was only amblilous to win back the political" freedom which the Czechs lost in the Thirty Years War, and had no thought of his own glory of self- eggrandisement. He had con- vinced himself that the Czech aspirations could only be realized by the downfall of Austria; when the war came, he at once went to exile, and worked might and main to win over the Governments of Great Britala and France to the cause which he held so sacred.
Meanwhile, the defence lawyer intimate that they are producing at this session an actual photo-
graph of "the real murderer." But Hauptmann's only hope appears to be for cammutation of his seri- tence to one of life imprisor.ment in exchange for a full and frank confession naming his accom-
