To the Editor of the CRIMSON:
As a person with no Jewish blood I add my protest against showing particular honor to Ernest F. Hanfstaengl.
I consider it a deliberate "selling out" on the part of Harvard to allow this a deliberate countenancing of a prostitution of our ideas and ideals.
Who knows perhaps in the dark ages of the world some highly civilized people incorporated cancer--perhaps it threw an enzyme of courage into our blood stream, perhaps we would be more sane now if this mistake had not been made.
This "Super-courage" is not indigenous to the German people. Ten years ago they (these "Bright Boys") got it from a magnificent Inetizo --about 35 per cent German, but 15 per cent aboriginal Mexican Indian--a man who refused to be mowed down--Bans Staengel killed himself, but Ernest Hans Staengel Killed himself, but Ernest Hanfstaengel bridged the gap.
A brain specialist would be fascinated with the courage that could lay aside women and conceive the idea of prostituting a people. Isabel Thatcher.
