The Catholics are ready to join a coalition with the Nazis provided the latter pledge themselves to observe the constitution and respect the Parliamentary form of Government. A coalition of Catholics and Hitlerites could command a majority in the Reichstag. Meantime Cabinet has issued a statement that the President adheres to the idea of a Government independent of party. Herr Hitler sees the president to-day.
