"IN GERMANY TO-DAY."
A NEUTRAL'S VIEWS. A judicious amount of reading about Germany may be a wholesome corrective to the tendency to abuse all German institutions simply beca.use they are German. "In Germany To-day," by a, neutral wbo claims a. long residence in the country before tho war, and a flying trip through it during the war, is a series of studies written for "The Times" in May, and widely reproduced in the German Press although not without a word of caution as to the superficiality of the writer's neutrality. Indeed, tbe neutral's conclusions are so comforting to tho Allies that it is probable the German Press has extracted from the whole only those portions that appealed to its self-conceit.

But the moral of it all is nob obstrusive.
