THE GERMAN LAW
INSUFFICIENTLY AGGRESSIVE SPIRIT OF THE TRENCHES NEEDED Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. BERLIN, January 17. (Received January 18, at 1.5 p.m.) Lecturing at the university, Herr Treisler the Secretary of State for the Prussian Ministry of Justice, attacked the present basis of German law as insufficiently aggressive. Any system of penal legislation based on formal standards of impartiality, he said, was foreign to the character of the German people, and must be fundamentally changed. The system existing hitherto contained nothing of the spirit of the trenches. German conceptions demanded that opponents must he destroyed outright. The Nazi law must crush all opposition at its inception.
