populations which are close to nature had, and still have, a very extensive
knowledge of this subject without these things being known to science. It is

I should be particularly grateful to you if you would give me your opinion in
this respect when the occasion arises, or even order a concrete working plan to
be submitted to you. Gauleiter Dr. Jury would personally have approached you
with this plan were he not at present away on a vacation. |
