exercises the power to confiscate.
Having borrowed exclusively from
her own people, Germany has no re
sponsibility to pay back the loans."

workers. We send money back home
for the boys, do all kinds of errands
for them, and when we go to a large
town help them In any way we can.

what we are doing. We only came

I know now what It means to be In a

to send that dope to the asylum, but
not here. We want the late sturf.
Magazines and paper are from five
