RECONSTRUCTION OF BERLIN
♦ NAZI INTENTIONS (Received November 28, 9.30 p.m.) BERLIN, November 27. Herr Hitler to-day took the first step in the reconstruction of Berlin when he laid the foundation stone of the Military Academy, and Technical University on the new Ring road near the Army road, Berlin's Great Western approach. "Without Rome there would never have been the Roman State," he said. "We Germans have 1000 years behind us. We are building for 1000 years ahead." The Minister for Education (Dr. Rust) announced that 16,000 students of Berlin University and the Technical University were being transferred to a gigantic range of buildings being erected on the new site, which possesses the Reichs Sportsfield and the Olympic Stadium as a playing field. General Beck, Dean of the Academy, pointed out that it would be complete in 1940, replacing that dissolved under the Versailles Treaty.
