The Foreign Service Journal, June 1933 rTHt; AMERICAN FOREIGN SERVICE JOURNAL THE FLAG I did not think it was so dear, To turn a corner suddenly, Till under alien skies And, ah! so brave and fair, A sudden vision of it near To spy that banner floating free Brought tears into my eyes. Upon the foreign air! To wander down the crooked street Oh, that will catch the careless breath, Of some foreign town; And make the heart beat fast; No friend amid the crowd you meet, Our country’s flag for life and death! Strange faces peer and frown; To find our own at last! In those far regions, wonder-strewn, No sight so good to see— My country’s blessed flag, my own, So dear, so dear, to me! —The Churchman.

  • Hitler's American Model
    Hitler’s American Model The United States and the Making of Nazi Race Law James Q. Whitman Princeton University Press Princeton and Oxford 1 Introduction This jurisprudence would suit us perfectly, with a single exception. Over there they have in mind, practically speaking, only coloreds and half-coloreds, which includes mestizos and mulattoes; but the Jews, who are also of interest to us, are not reckoned among the coloreds. —Roland Freisler, June 5, 1934 On June 5, 1934, about a year and a half after Adolf Hitler became Chancellor of the Reich, the leading lawyers of Nazi Germany gathered at a meeting to plan what would become the Nuremberg Laws, the notorious anti-Jewish legislation of the Nazi race regime. The meeting was chaired by Franz Gürtner, the Reich Minister of Justice, and attended by officials who in the coming years would play central roles in the persecution of Germany’s Jews. Among those present was Bernhard Lösener, one of the principal draftsmen of the Nuremberg Laws; and the terrifying Roland Freisler, later President of the Nazi People’s Court and a man whose name has endured as a byword for twentieth-century judicial savagery. The meeting was an important one, and a stenographer was present to record a verbatim transcript, to be preserved by the ever-diligent Nazi bureaucracy as a record of a crucial moment in the creation of the new race regime. That transcript reveals the startling fact that is my point of departure in this study: the meeting involved detailed and lengthy discussions of the law of the United States.
