HITLER THWARTED.

Visit to Berlin Fails Signally. IN DANGER OF EXPULSION. United Press Assn.—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. BERLIN, December 12. Herr Adolf Hitler, leader of the German Nationalists, arrived here to-day for the purpose of seeing President Hindenburg, of being interviewed by representatives of foreign newspapers, and of broadcasting his views on America. He failed in all three objects. The Foreign Office banned the broadcast under the decree forbidding the spread of propaganda. Herr Hitler, seeing that the authorities were in earnest, and being faced with the possibility of deportation as a. native of Austria in the event of defiance, departed from the capital. It is reported that he may proceed to London and Rome shortly to meet influential people. The World’s Profiteer. It is stated by the “ Deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung ” that Herr Hitler expressed the view recently that British opinion with regard to France was significantly changing and that the United States and Italy were becoming increasingly irritated by France, owing to her gold hoard and her militarism. France was becoming the most hated nation in the world. The general collapse of the world’s markets would force all nations to form a united front against the sole profiteer.
