guilt. * * * On the immigration question the German-Americans were
to be thanked that the new law under which only 26,000 Germans could

great importance that the North German Lloyd should be helpful when German
professors wished to travel to America. Before everything, sport in America
plavs a very great role. More had been written in Americn about the German
swimmer Rademacher than about any diplomat or artist.”

Analysis of the above figures show, with respect to- the eight countries in column 1,
