On His Own
When Adolf Hitler came in, Heinrich Hollands got out. He gave up his job as foreman of an Aachen newspaper composing room, and retired on a small pension rather than serve the Nazis. U.S. Psychological Warfare officers found him, when they went looking for a German to help them print a four-page weekly, the Aachener Nachrichten. Soon he was doing some of the editing; Army officers found that it was easier to make an editor out of) a printer than to make non-Nazis out of the available German editors.
Last week Printer-Editor Hollands became the first German permitted to publish in the British and American occupation zones. No U.S. censor will see the Narhrichten (circ. 50,000) before it goes to press.
