Abstract
Description
Germany now sensitive to foreign opinion, but instead of refraining from acts which have given her bad name abroad, tries to counteract by spreading propaganda; distinguished visitors are met by people of the various ministries, entertained, and shown the sights; some Americans no doubt taken in; leaders of government now disclaiming their interest in spreading National Socialism abroad, but there is evidence to the contrary; Dr. Ilgner, high Party official who also has connections with I. G. Farben going to U.S. in January; no credence should be placed in any statements he makes about Germany.
