Germany Would Have
 Revolution If The
 Hitler Party Wins

would drastically restrict the em- ployment of women in business and industry.
 They plan rigid regulation or prohibition of chain stores and de- pertinent stores. against which the Nazis are particularly bitter be. cause many of the stores are own. cd by Jews. They would reduce interest rates and institute state supervision of land in an effort to develop self sufficlency.
 Close regulation of the medical profession would be designed to limit the influence of the Jews in the profession. Even now well developed boycott against Jews is hurting the practice of many Jew ish doctors and surgeons.
 The Nazis are bitterly opposed to American jazz music which they claim Is corruptlng Germany's musical taste. They probably would restrict jazz.
 It is highly unlikely that some Of these schemes would be execut- cd even if the .Nazis came into power because they arc confused and contradictory.
 It was learned that the Nazis recently sent trusted emissary to Berlin to visit the commercial rep- resentatives of several foreign governments and outlined the gen. eral Nazi program for transmits sion to their respective govern mehts. The emissary indicated that the Nazls would never toler- ate foreign firms controlling indus- try vital to the national welfare. He also stated that the Nazis might request n reduction of interest rates on foreign commercial loans, including British and American Is. sues.
 The emlssary said that the Nazls expected the Bruenlng government to fall at the end of February and that his party would be ready to take over the government then.

(COpyriGflt 10S1, by United Prcss)
 Berlin, Dec a1.--(UP).--Adolph Hitier's "Nazis'' will bring social and economic revolution to Ger many if some of their plans are carried out.
 The Nazis would establish equal partnership between the state and the workers in ali German busi- ness; they would create a monop- oly of foreign trade and national- ,ize banks: they would make Ger many independent of the outside world so far as possible; and they would eliminate foreigners and all Jews, from business and profess sions.
 Hitler's creed is called "autarcy. It means economic self suficiency and comprises many of the princi- pies of fascism, communism, and ultra -nationalism.
 So certain are the Nazis of. their forthcoming advent to power that their economic advisors are already working out the taxt of their creed and their proclamation to impose the new regime on the people.
 oddly, although bitter enemies of communism, the Nazis have adopted some Soviet tenets and tactics. Hitler's actual economic schemes are still secret but state- ments of his various leaders and writings of the party's economic experts give an idea of some of tho novel ideas the Nazis have in mind.
 Among the most revolutionary an h n a aAUnaafn1 a thn fnltnu ~ ing:
 The state and the workers to become owners in equal partner ship in all business in the nation; the plan would be executed by the state taking one-third ownership. giving workers in factories and business one-thlrd. and permitting the present owners to retain one third. The governments share would be in lieu of taxation, which the Nazl economists hope would not be necessary.
 A monopoly of foreign trade for the government similar to the So- viet monopoly; the naturalization of banks; the introduction of com pulsory labor by all able men con- trolled by the issuance of food cards similar to the Soviet ration ing system. Tho government would keep all workers in food and housing.
 Nazi leaders claim that Jews would be omitted in the ratloning system just as the Sovlets amitted the former aristocrats.
 "Autarcy" is being devised to make Germany self sufficient eco- nomically and Independent of the outside world us far as possible. The plans would include import restrictions and violent opposition to all foreign firms doing business in Germany. The Nazis claim they would not actually break contracts but they admit restrictions planned on foreign firms would force them gradually to leave Germany.
 The Nazis plan prohibition of ownership of property in Germany by Jews or foreigners. They plan to develop home markets with the aid of & high tariff wall. They

BIGGEST CITY

LONDON, July 7.-Preliminary
British census figures for 1881 in
dicate that officially and techni-
cally London is easily the worlds
most populous city.
The Greater London population
is given as 8,208,818, whereas New
York has 6,981,927. This puts
London 1,220,891 ahead.
The County of London, forming
the central portion of the me-
tropolis, has 4,396,821 persons liv-
ing in it. The great "outer ring"
has grown by 810,319 persons in
the last 10 years until its popula-
ton now numbers 3,805, ,997.
Together these are known as
Greater London, extending for
nearly 80 miles. The whole area,
except for the tiny City of Lon
don, or financial district, comes
under the jurisdiction of the Lon
don metropolitan police, whereas
a corresponding area in the New
York district would have to in
