And probably the first thing they'll do if they remain is to try to have German taught in the schools. 9 he Hun’s Defense Germany can’t understand why the world is horrified the killing of worshipers in a Paris church by the on long-distance gun. “We certainly committed no_ sacrileges,” says the ogne Gazette.
