The assassination of Dr. Heintz, committed presumably by Nationalists, draws fresh attention to Separatists' doings in the Palatinate, which is the subject of serious pre-occupation in British official circles. The Separatist flag still flies over many Town Halls in other parts of occupied Germany but it is apparently only in the Palatinate that anything like a serious Central Separatist(girl candidates!- Kaze-lasa, Administration has been established under the title of "The Gov- St. Hilda's: Lu: Uet-shi
