The Hanover museum today opened a race section to enable the studying of racial origins. This is the first instance of the kind in Germany.

The study of race has been made compulsory in most of the schools in Germany. Pupils must pass examinations in the subject, and, it was announced that diplomas would not be granted to those who had not taken the examinations in racial science.
