GERMAN FACISTS :.
 WILL REPUDIATE VERSAILLES PACT
Hitler Declares Party, When It Reaches Power, Will Tear Up . All Agreements
CLAIMS TREATIES ILLEGAL, DENIES GUILT OF CONFLICT

Leader StartIes Court Crowd by Ad-
 mitting That Members Would Re- f nounce Postwar Settlements, Evade Them Completely, and
 Build New Nation by Illegal
 Means Official at Trial.
 Leipsic, Germany, Sept. 25 LPSr Adolf Hitler, fascist generalissimo today decvlared that just as soon as the German fascists by legal means have captured political power in Germany, they will tear asunder the treaty of Versailles, if necessary by means looked upon by the world as illegal.
 His sensational announcement of purpose was made at the trial of three Reichswehr officers to which he had been summoned as a wit ness.
 "Treaties Are Not Law"
 "The political socialists do not re- gard the international agreements as law but as something forced upon us," he said. "Germanyas gagged by the peace treaties. We do not ac- knowledge our guilt in the war, es- pecially not the guilt of future gen. erations. When we shall oppose these treaties by every possible means, we shall find ourselves in the midst of revolution
 We shall oppose these treaties both automatically and by com- pletely evadng them," he continued. That may be looked upon by the world as an illegal method, but Oe will not employ it until the party has been victorious. After two or three more elections our party will be in the majority.
 To Make Party Victor
 "The national socialist movement will pursue it's aims within the state with means prescribed by the con- stitution. The constitution, however, prescribed only the method and not the finalu end We will make our party the decisive factor, by means Of the lawmaking bodies but at the moment that our party has the pow IT we will mould the state in the form that we consider the right one"
 Hitler, whose fascist party made heavy gains in recent German elec- tions expounded in detail the aim of his party to create a new Ger man state-not by armed revolt but by a bloodless constitutional revolu- tion. He cited Mussolini's recreation of Italy as an example of the peace full reforging of a nation in the flame of reborn national conscious ness.
 Beginning quietly with his. hands folded in front of him, Hitler became more emotional as he proceeded and the presiding judge several times warned him to cool down and to keep his answers on a conversational level. On the whole, however, his manner was dignified and restrained.

KoCHANsKI-oRLoFF RECITAL.


Paul Kochanski, the Polish violinist,
As a favorite artist with washington
audiences. He was warmly welcomed
when he appeared yesterday morning
with Nikolai Orloff, Russian pianist, IN
Joint recital at the Mayfiower Hotel
This was the fortieth in Mrs. Lawrence
Townsend's morning events.
Mr., Kochanski has never played here
In better form. His complete ease IN
mastering the difficult technique OF ms
instrument and his obvious feeling for
the music that he Is playing, combine
TO make him a very human and appeal
ing soloist, as well as virtuoso OF nrst
rank, He also had remarkably fne ac-
compartment at the piano by Pierre
Iuboshutz. The novel selection OF the
yiolinist was his own composition.
"Flirht." dedicated to Col. Charles A.
Iindbergh. It is decidedly clever
programmatic number, quite as in
fricate in its demands on the player as
one would expect work written by
virtuoso to be. Naturally, light gen.
orally humming tone is its dominant
feature. Yankee Doodle" and couple
of other distinctly American melodies
are glimpsed like patches Of melodious
sky in the clouds of ripping scales and
sustained humming of the strings. The
short piano prelude Is particularly de-
lightful. Mr.. Kochanski also played
masterpieces of violin literature by
Bach. Vivaldi, Boccherini, Francoeur,
De Falla Gin which he has established
q high standard for interpretation) and
Sarasate. AS his one encore, he gave
"Berceuse," written by Mrs. Townsend,
who is herself violinist as well as
singer and pianist.
Mr.. Orloff opened the program with
q group of Chopin numbers which won
his audience Immediately. Later he
gave original charm of Interpretation to
Ravels "Jeux d'Eau," the "Liebestraum"
of List and his encore. the Schultz
Evler arrangement for concert OF
Johann Strauss Blue Danube Waltz"
It has been several seasons since this
pianist has been heard In Washington
and he won new popularity with his
individuality Of tone-color and inter-
probation as well as his mastery of
technique yesterday.
The two artists seemed unusually well
matched in their reading Of the Cesar
1 Franck sonata, which was beautifully
played. H. F.

TRANSIT S|ON FAILS;
GAS VICTIM DIES
Woman's Death Declared Ac-
cidental-LittIe Hope Held
for Husband.

A blood TRANSMISSION last night failed
to save the life of Mrs. Florence Martin,
SIS, of 203 F street, who. with her hus-
band, was overcome by gas Tuesday
evening when tea kettle on the kitchen
stove boiled over, extinguishing the
fame. She died at $50 o'clock, just
is minutes after the blood of young
student nurse was injected into her
veins.
Albert Martin, the 50-year-old hus-
band is still in critical condition at
Emergency Hospital. He has not re-
gained consciousness, and physicians
hold out little hope for his life.
The couple had gone to the kitchen
to prepare their evening meal and were
doing when the fire went out. The
steady fiow of gas filled the room. and
when William Heron, their landlord,
found them, both were unconscious.
Last night, as last resort, Emerg-
ency Hospital physicians asked for vol
unteers among the student nurses for
q blood TRANSMISSION. Miss Mary Car
penter of Orange. Va, was selected, and
a pint of her blood drained into the
dying woman's arteries. The fresh blood
failed to work its purpose. however, and
Mrs. Martin died a few minutes later.
Coroner j. Ramsay. hewitt said this
morning the death was clearly acct
dental and an inquest would not be
necessary.
