ada.
When
he
returned
to
Germany
after
the
war
he
preached
democracy
In
the
country
and
he
was
glad
to
find
his
own
village
of
1500
voters
cast
a
two-thirds
vote
for
democracy.
Again
there
was
a
vote
and
the
majority
disappeared,
the
village
voting
fifty
percent
for
Hitler.
A
little
later
when
another
vote
was
taken
the
whole
village,
except
himself,
voted
for
Hitler.
His
was
the
only
vote
for
demo
cracy.
That
was
about
three
years
ago.
Today
he
had
changed
his
mind.
Under
Hitler
he
found
the
country
united,
speaking
with
one
voice.
All
the
petty
kingdoms
and
principalities
had
disappeared
in
united
Germany.
Today
Dr.
Schenck
said
he
felt
himself
about
ninety-seven
percent
for
Hitler.
Dr.
Schenck
spoke
feelingly
of
the
love
the
British
people
bore
to
their
king
and
British
Institutions:
Tills
feeling
he
declared
was
shared
by
the
people
of
Germany
who
greatly
admired
the
late
king
and
the
present
British
ruler.
He
al
ways
liked
to
Join
in
singing
"God
Save
the
King."
The
visitor
also
told
of
his
visit
recently
to
Victoria
and
a
trip
up
Vancouver
Island
where
he
had
seen
the
finest
timber
in
the
world
and
enjoyed
the
most
wonderful
scenery,
equal
If
not
surpassing
that
of
the
Italian
Riviera.
Then
he
came
north
and
found
other
scenic
delights
and
In

citizens
he
had

Tne
wnole
trip
was
one
of
joyous
surprises.
Mr.
Fleury
spoke
of
having
known
Dr.
Schenck
for
over
twenty
years.
He
was
an
outstanding
forester,
probably
the
best
known
forester
in
the
world.
He
had
been
a
great
Inspiration
to

everywhere.
Mr.
Burdlck
said
It
was

that
