Mr. Eden went on to quote extracts from some of the rules established by the Nazis in Poland: first, Poles are obliged to make way before the representatives of German authority, as the streets belong to the conquero! and not to the conquered. Secondly, the Polish inhabitants of the male sex are obliged to show their respect for Germans by uncovering their heads. Third, Poles are forbidden to use the German form of greeting, and fourth, Germans must be served first in shops and markets.

It is a source of comradesbip and opportunity of service to the whole world.—Havas.
