HITLER'S RECEPTION
EXCEEDING IN SPLENDOUR
DAYS OF HOHENZOLLERNS
(Received September 5, 1.15 p.m.) NUREMBERG, September 4. Amid the clamour of bells, tho rattle of drums, and the strains of martial music and the cheers of thousands, many of whom had to vacate- their houses for distinguished visitors, Herr Hitler triumphantly entered Nuremberg for the sixth Nazi Congress, accompanied by Dr. Goebbels and General Goering. He remains a week. The municipal reception exceeded in splendour and enthusiasm anything ever seen under tho Hohenzollern regime. The city was gay with flags and escutcheons. Half a million attended, their accommodation being a.masterpiece of organisation, including, an extensive camp of tents outside the city for Storm Guards and Storm Troopers. A gigantic film was taken, absorbing 180,000 feet. Some of the film operators travelled on roller skates in order to assure mobility. Others rode high bicycles to enable visibility. Herr Hitler, taking tho salute, will be photographed from a ninety-foot ladder.
