ANNIVERSARY
Seven Years of Nazi Tactics
Cement Hitler’s Grip on Reich
DEVEN years ago this month, on January 30, 1933, Adolf Hitler was
named chancellor of Germany and began writing the blood-stained
Third Reich. In 1930, already powerful, he scoffed when
old, President von Hindenburg offered him a cabinet post; Hitler want
ed all or nothing.
“Handsome Adolf” reviews his
troops in 1932, during the years he
was making sensational gains in ev
ery election. Finally Hindenburg of
fered him the chancellorship, but
Hitler demanded too many conces
sions.
Events moved rapidly now. A stooge
named Marinus van der Lubbe (hud
dled, above) was charged with the
“Communist inspired” Reichstag
fire February 27, 1933, after which
all freedom of speech and press was
suspended. The next month Hitler
got 288 Reichstag seats in the “elec
tion.” In quick succession came the
Jewish boycott, outlaw of labor un
ions, concentration camps and
church persecution.
In March, 1936, he mai«ht£ troops into the Rhineland. Then came the
construction of an anti-Commirern foreign pact with Italy, whose II Duce
Benito Mussolini (shown above with Hitler) seemed to have ideas closely
paralleling those of Der Fuehrer. Soon Japan joined the anti-Commitern
pact, and Hitler felt secure. So much, in fact, that in March, 1938, he
suddenly took possession of Austria and thus began the violent program
of territorial seizure that led to war last September.
One by one great men called on
him, trying to make peace. Britain’s
Prime Minister Chamberlain, above,
made three trips climaxing in the
Munich agreement under which Su
detenland went to Germany. But
still the appetite grew. In March,
1939, Germany seized Czeclio-Slova
kia; a week later, Memel. Hitler
was getting closer and closer to the
Russian juggernaut, and it was inev
itable that they should meet.

Old Hindenburg, weary unto death,
capitulated in January, 1933, and
made Hitler chancellor. They dis
trusted each other from the start.

teenth anniversary of Tannenberg
battle.
His power secured through these
moves, Hitler next “purged” his
ranks of “traitors.” On June 30,
1934, the world was startled when
Capt. Ernest Roehm, once a closer
Hitler associate, and anywhere from
77 to several hundred other Nazis
were shot. Next Hitler turned to
foreign affairs. In January, 1935,
having resigned from the League of
Nations, he called the Saar plebi
scite.
They did, signing a treaty on August
23, 1939. Seven days later Hitler’s
armies invaded Poland for the light
ning war in which Russia joined a
couple of weeks later. In 30 days
Poland was no more, but meanwhile
France and Britain, Poland’s allies,
had declared war against the Nazis.
Thus is Hitlerism brought up to
date; where will it go from here? On
to new conquests, or down to a hu
miliating defeat?

What’s the Use?
A mother walked into the nursery
one day and found her young son
tying a bandage round his finger.
“My poor child,” said the mother,
“what have you done to your fin
ger?”
“I hit it with the hammer,” was
the child’s reply.
Mother looked surprised. “But I
didn’t hear you crying,” she re
marked.
“No,” came the bland reply, “I
thought you were out.”
AND COSTS TOO MUCH
“Do you ever get the last won
with your wife?"
“Sometimes—but it’s usuallv tr
exchange for the last csr.t.”

The Better Way to
Correct Constipation
One way to treat constipation is
to endure it first and "cure" it
afterward. The other way is to
avoid having it by getting at its
cause. So why not save yourself
those dull headachy days, plus
the inevitable trips to the medi
cine chest, if you can do it by a
simple common-sense “ounce of
prevention”?
If your trouble, like that of
millions, is due to lack of “bulk”
in the diet, “the better way” is to
eat Kellogg’s All-Bran. This
crunchy, toasted, ready-to-eat
cereal has just the "bulk” you
need. If you eat it regularly-tind
drink plenty of water-you can
not only get regular but keep
regular, day after day and month
after month! All-Bran is made
by Kellogg's in Battle Creek. If
your condition is chronic, it is
wise to consult a physician.

sers, old man? They fit like a
glove.”
“That’s just it; they should fit
like trousers.”
