THE SHEEP AND THE GOATS
"Having eliminated all opposition the Government is far front regretting the loss of eminent personalities which added to the permanent glory of the country. It is delightful to have to deal only with minds which are timid, with talents so mediocre that they can easily be directed. The method of selectiofi is to ask all artists and writers to reply in writing to the two essential questions: Are you Aryan ? Do you undertake to support the national government with Jail your strength? Anyone who re--fuses to sign immediately loses his public; there is no longer any audience in Germany to which he can address himself. The irreconcilables have been eliminated in advance; and there remalin only the weak and mediocre to be dealt with, not to mention the shrewd, who, after having made their way into a free regime, are quite prepared to profit from the methods of a dictatorship."—Henrich Mann, a well-known author.
