Letter to the Editor Fantasy of the Nor die Imagination
JUST a passing thought on your article headed, “An Opinion On the Subject Of Racial Values” (Sept. PIM).
The result of your “Nordic” correspondent’s study of recorded history and his observation of nations and races, would lead one to believe he may imagine himself to be one of these fantasies of his imagination.
Apparently the “Mediterranean types” improved the Nordic types of
England after the French and Italian conquests of England.
Maybe he would like to believe only the best from these “unfor tunate” areas formed the conquer ing armies occupying the best areas of England and left the rubbish of their manhood behind.
Then his wild misstatements of Nordics in the United States of America! He has the grace to add, “Perhaps these generalisations are wrong”. How blind can you be?
Why publish such rubbish—unless your correspondent is one of the publishers, then, of course, you have no choice.
I am, etc.,
Half And Half.
