They didn't talk of | war, fear wear or think of war.| They did not want war. It was just | the big shots.” | The Torells spent several months in Germany, traveling up and down the Rhine and to many parts of the Reich. At Munich during the his- toric signing of the Munich Pact, they were standing within a few feet of Hitler, Daladier, Chamber- lain and Mussolini. Needed No War “Hitler did not have to go - to, war,” Torell said sadly. “Germans are short of many things at times, butter eggs, coffee, and other items. They want only what they lost be- fore the first war, Hitler could have gotten those things without war. “He has done much for Germany. There has been more building there in the past five years than in the last fifty years it seems. Yet now he has wrecked it all with this war.” Highlight of the German trip was Cologne where “we had good wines, and people, knowihg we were Am- ericans, were especially good to us,” Torell said. Back on U. 8. Soil Leaving Germany last Jume, ‘the Torells went to Paris for a few weeks before returning to New ¥ork —“doggone glad” to see American soil. Sitting in his voom at the Hotel Juneau today, Torell, once a Ger- man medical officer, reflected that twice he has escaped Euvope’s wars by a few months. In 1918, still. a German citizen, Torell left Germany for America and. was surprised to hear of war in 1914. He left in June this year an American citizen, confident he was safe enough from German draft, but still fortunate not to be “caught in the middle of it.” “¥ou.can say we are tickled to be back in Juneau,” Torell said, and added, “Put.that in big fat letters— This. town is peaceful and its peo- ple congenial. Here is where we stay.” “I do mot want. to say anything about German people,” Torell said. “They are good people—but Hitler, you can say anything you want te about him.” Mike Daniloff Joins Univ.
