Bernard Shaw today predicted that Prof. Albert Einstein “may yet be the winner” over Chancellor Adolf Hitler of Germany. The noted playwright’s assertion was made to the Daily Express in a reply to the newspaper’s question: “Do you think Hitler has solved the Jewish problem in a satisfactory way?”
Said Mr. Shaw: “He has not solved it at all; he has created it. It has damaged his intellectual credit to an extraordinary extent. Europe could hardly have been more disagreeably surprised if he had revived witch-burning. Exiling of Einstein and confiscation of his property was Hitler’s most stupid single act and Einstein may yet be the winner.”
