(Received March 17, 11.15 p.in.l
Washington, March 17.
State Department officials believe that the German incident has ended. It is not expected, that Germany will protest, concerning the New York antiNazi meeting.
A message from Washington on March 6 stated that the United States Government apologised orally, but officially, to the German Embassy, following a protest by the Embassy against a speech by the mayor of New York, rM. F. H. La Guardia, in which he suggested the inclusion of a figure of Herr Hitler in a proposed “chamber of horrors’’ at the New York World Fair.
At a meeting of the Anti-Nazi League the following day Dr. Frank Bohn, a
son-in-law of the Secretary for Commerce. Mr. D. C. Roper, expressed the hope that, the La Guardia incident would stir front their lethargy those German people in the United States who were now apathetic in their hostility to Hitlerism.
