HITLER'S NEW TITLE

A new adulatory title has been bestowed oil Hitler since Germany’s absorption of Austria. Pro-Nazi Austrians refer to him, according to a letter recently received by an Austrian now living in Christchurch, by a jib rase meaning “The HeavenSent.'' Instead of ending, as previous letters have done, “Your affectionate brother. or some such phrase, the last note* that the Christchurch member of the family received froip home concluded with “Heil Hitler,” and then the writer’s signature. It started, too, with the same phrase. Since the Nazi censorship extends to the opening by the authorities, of all letters addressed overseas, to insure that nothing derogatory to the Third Reich leaks out, discretion demands that, whatever a correspondent’s political views might bo, he should use the approved Naai forms of address, to save himself from the suspicion of disloyalty.
