Subject: Re: Theos-World Hitlers aura



I have a full run of The Theosophist here--at 
least up to the 1990s,
after which it became completely devoid of 
content. There is an article
by Hodson in the May issue, but it is about Native 
Americans in Arizona.
There is no mention of Hitler. Arundale has an 
article and an
Editorial. He does mention the political troubles 
in Europe as "clouds
of darkness" but no mention of Hitler.
