outside the courtroom could be heard the clamor of thousands shouting: Germany awake!" which is the fascist war cry.
 But despite Hitlers intimation of violence and bloodshed he denied that his party contemplated disorder in bringing about a revolution and political upheaval in Germany to sweep away the present govern mental system and replace 1t with one more German and less interna- tional.
 Hitler predicted Reichstag membership of 25O for the fascists at the next general election and a majority within the next two or three years. He was asked by the court why he so often used the word revolution, and he answered: What other name can we give to a movement which aims to overturn the present state and construct a new Germany on entirely new lines?"
 Hitlcr's testimony yesterday was offered when he took the stand to explain his party's principles with the hope he could aid in exoneration of three Reichswehr officers accus- ed of high treason.

FASCIST SPEECH
 ALARMS GERMANS
Hitler Says You Shall See Heads Rolling in Sand"

Leipsic, Germany, Sept. 26 R - Reverberations of Adolf Hitlers ex- position of German fascism were heard throughout the fatherland to- day, with the populace divided in its attitude toward the man and what he stands for.
 Millions applauded and hailed the native Austrian, whose own country does not claim him, as the savior who will deliver Germany from the chains of socialists government and the treaty of Versailles.
 Other millions were nervous over his speech in the supreme court here yesterday contemptuous of his governmental theories, and fearful of the road he is travelling. Many berated the president of the court for allowing Hitler, the membership of whose party jumped from twelve to 107 seats in the Reichstag in the elections two weeks ago, to propa- gandize his movement.
 Troops, mounted police and a re- inforced constabulary here told the nation that the authorities had fear ed more than ordinary meeting yesterday when he should appear at the court room. The comment was made that precautions against dis order could hardly have been great CT had there been word of plans for another putsch. such as thata led by Hitler in Munich in 1922.
 Attracting the greatest nation wide attention were his assertions that the treaty of Versailles would have to go, and that If our move ment succeeds we shall erect a peo- ples tribunal before which the criminals of November, 1918, shall expiate their crime. Then I frankly predict = you shall see heads rolling in the sand"
 Greeted With Cheers
 There were cries of "bravo" throughout the court chamber when this latter statement was made, but they subsided when threats were made to clear the courtroom. From
