German Conditions Better Than English
Conditions are far better in Germany than in England today. This is the opinion of Miss M. Russell, of Auckland, who worked in Whangarei as a voluntary aid at the emergency hospital during the war, and who has been serving with the occupation forces in Germany. In a letter to a Whangarei friend, she states that the Germans are hardworking and clever, and cannot be ignored as a nation, but they cannot bear to be subjected to the British or anyone else, and she expects that some day they will want to rise again. “There is no great hardship in Germany today,” she writes. “They always manage to have plenty to eat, and I have not vet seen an under-nourished-looking person.”
