The German ruling caste of today is not so infallible as Hitler would have us believe, a late issue of the Deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung indicates.
According to the Braunschweig correspondent of this 100 per cent pure “Aryan” newspaper, the Nazis of Braunschweig recently discovered; to the consternation of all pure-blooded “Aryans,” that one of the streets of that “Aryan” city had a disgracefully “non-Aryan” name, Jerusalem Strasse.
The matter was immediately referred to the fuehrer-the leader who is also an authority on “Aryanism.” As it became immediately apparent to him that this was another of those international Jewish conspiracies against the “Aryans,” he immediately ordered that the “non-Aryan” name be changed to Baldur von Schirach Strasse, after that notable grown-up boy scout.
And his name would have gone down in history-at least on certain street-signs in Braunschweig-but for the belated discovery that Jerusalem Strasse had not received its name from the “non-Aryan” capital of Palestine, but in memory of a former great benefactor of the city, Reverend Jerusalem abbot of Braunschweig.
And so one pure “Aryan” city will have to carry on with a “non-Aryan” street name. But the moral remains: Even “Aryans” sometimes make mistakes.
