GERMAN WOMANHOOD

COMMANDANT ALLEN'S TOUR

HERR HITLER'S DESIRE

(From "The Post's" Representative.) LONDON, February '-!. Commandant Mary Allen, chief of Hie Women's Auxiliary Police Force, travelled to Berlin by air to interview Herv Hitler. She took with her one of her assistants, Inspector Taggart, a uuont German speaker. Before starting, she said:— "I am going to see Hcrr Hitler at his invitation.' lam anxious to learn about the truth of the position of German womanhood. lam certain it is not correct that they have been- totally banished from public life. . I think I shall find that Hitler has disbanded only those who were politically unreliable. It would be a mistake to ban women completely from public life, but I realise that many of them would be more suitably employed in the home." Last evening the Commandant returned to Croydon by air, and said that during her visit to Berlin she received a promise from General Goering to create a women's police force in Germany, and had an interview with Herr Hitler. When she informed Herr Hitler that General Goering, had promised to form a special branch of women police for the German Secret Service, Herr Hitler favoured the idea. "I liked Herr Hitler very much indeed," she added. "He appealed to me as very sincere and an idealist. ( He is a man-who has been able to arouse the enthusiasm of the German people. I know Germany;. and I have never seen so united a people. Herr Hitler told me that he wanted to see closer relations between all. countries."
