Privates in the German Army now have to salute officers in the Nazi Storm Troops, mostly small-time politicians. Little by little Chancellor Hitler is trying to Nazify the Army and win its idolized leader General Werner von Blomberg away from his stanch loyalty to President von Hindenburg, his aloof attitude toward politics. Last week General von Blomberg as Reichswehr (Army) Minister issued an order which warmed Nazi cockles, a definitely anti-Semitic order.

No plans whatever for the re-organization of Germany's two greatest shipping lines were announced. Last spring Chancellor Hitler gave correspondents to understand that he viewed with disfavor their close working agreement, thought they ought to compete more vigorously. Last week Double Chairman Helfferich, in whose person Hamburg-American and N. G. L. seemed definitely united, went blithely off for a country holiday, left officials of the two lines...
...Germany has shown that it is possible to weld conflicting forces for a common goal. The spirit of Adolf Hitler is the best Nazi spirit! We will devote ourselves to fulfilling it. From now on our slogan is not 'Hamburg,' not 'Bremen' but 'GERMANY...
