A UNIFIED GERMANY
(United P.A.-Electric Telegraph—Copyright)
(Received 2 p.m.) BERLIN", January 30. Thousands forming a solid mass all alonp the route, cheered and saluted Herr Hitler as he proceeded to the Reichstag meeting in the Kroll Opera House to give account of lhs first year's stewardship.
Deputies, all in either brown, shirts or black uniforms, clamorously received the Chancellor, who was presented by President Hindcnburg with a handwritten letter of congratulation on his successful leadership.
Herr Hitler, in a lengthy speech, declared that the year would be known as the year of the Nazi revolution, which had changed every sphere in German life, and had prevented the total collapse that was threatened under the crippling Parliamentary regime
The Chancellor bitterly attacked the party bickerings which followed the establishment of the Republic, adding that bourgeois democracy and Marxist internationalism produced Cabinets who squandered a nation's economic and political capital: Heroes were despised, cowards extolled, honest men punished aud the lazy rewarded.
Hitler added that humanity had now entered on a timely search for ideas and was producing a new philosophy of life. The terrors of war, with its millions of victims, must not recur. "The Nazi conception does not mean that we disrespect others, but we want to keep our own race pure," he said.
The Chancellor paid a tribute to Italy and Signor Mussolini, and warned Stalin that Germany would not tolerate Communism any more than Russia tolerated Nazi-ism. . He declared that Germany congratulated Pilsudski on his broadmindedness. Though Germany had left the League she was willing to help to bring happiness to all peoples.
CRUSH MONARCHISTS.
General Goering's Latest Plan
In Germany.
/'COMMUNISTS IN DISGUISE."
(Received 12 noon.)
BERLIN, January 30.
As a sequel to recent celebrations :of the ex-Kaiser's birthday, the Premier of Prussia. General Goering, has ordered the immediate dissolution of .all Monarchist associations throughout Germany. He emphasises that Monarchist propaganda is misplaced and says the new organisatio'ne, aiming at the enlistment of young men, are thwarting Nazi-ism and are evidence that the enemies of the State are gathering in a new guise.
"As I crus'ied the Communists," he declares, "so. I will recklessly destroy all other discontented elements, even if they are disguised as Monarchists."
COMPLETE MASTER. HITLER MORE THAW BISMARCK LONDON, January 30. In reviewing the first year of Nazi rule, "The Times" says: "Herr Hitler has bent Germany to his will. He is acknowledged more completely as master than even the great Biemarck.
"Certainly he has given Germany a greater appearance of unity. He has moulded the best, with some of the worst, instincts of the German race into a powerful national unit which responds swiftly to his leadership. It is generally recognised that Herr Hitler's fundamental aim is to restore the German people's belief in themselves and to make Germany respected, perhaps feared, abroad."
