HIMMLER ACTS
HIGH OFFICIAL SHOT BROMBERG POLICE CHIEF f , \ LONDON, Feb. 6. “Reich Leader Himmler has recently taken proceedings against a number of officials who forgot their duty and proved oblivious to their honour,” said the Berlin radio. It added' that an S.S. brigadier and police chief of Bromberg, von Dahle, was sentenced to death and executed by shooting’in the head. Bromberg was the administration centre of the Kuehn district.
Administration Chief Ernest and District Party Leader Ramm have been degraded and deprived of their civil rights and sent to a special punitive battalion, where they will be employed on tasks of a particularly difficult and dangerous nature. Ramm was also relieved of his duties as head of the party chancellory. The Russians announced the capture of Bromberg a fortnight ago, but the Germans have since reported that some fighting was continuing within the city.
