NEW YORK. July i2.-Tbe early
downfall Of Adolf Hitler as chan
eeiior Of Germany was predicted to-
day by George z. Earle. until recently
Minister 70 Austria, and now the
Democratic candidate for Governor
OF Pennsylvania
Earle arrived on the United States
liner Manhattan from London. where
he has been observing the European
situation. Freed from the response
bility OF being a representative oil
the American Government he ex-
pressed himself freely today on his
distaste for the Nazi movement In
Germany and Austria.
Il am certain" he said, that the
Germans viii rid themselves Of Hitler
in the near future The only reason
the Nazis have managed 10 stay in
the saddle so far is by virtue Of their
absolute control OF the press, the
radio and the pulpit.
Control Is Cracking Up.
''T'hat control is beginning 10
crack up. There have been definite
signs Of II In the last two weeks.
Hitlers passing is simply a matter of
time. and then the Germans will act
as a great people have always acted ''
Turning his attention to the i'm
mediate problem in his own future,
that Of Wrestling control OF Pennsyl-
yania from the Republicans at the
November election, Earle launched an
attack upon the @, o. p. rule of that
State during the last three admins
trations.
During my brief period abroad, q"
he said, Il understand that National
Republican Chairman Fletcher dis
covered the Declaration OF Independ-
ence. It has only been few months
since the Republicans discovered the
Constitution We are making prog
reSs and / would not be at all sur
prised to learn any day that they
had discovered the depression"
Predicts Victory.
I'VE are going to win next Novem-
ber because the people Of our State
understand the new deal" he con-
tinued. Not from reading about it,
but from living under 1t. Our task
will be to make the new deal perma-
nent In Pennsylvania.
THE Republican party leaders have
made the Roosevelt new deal the
issue OF this years election. We thank
them"
While waiting for the Manhattan
TO dock Mr.. Earle borrowed a morning
paper and learned that Premier Dol
fuss OF Austria had taken several more
cabinet portfolios into his own hands.
The former Minister interpreted this
as a further step in the direction of
dictatorship and approved It,
II am a Democrat both with a capi-
tai and a small d. but that is very
good news" he commented. "A strong
government in Austria is absolutely
essential to the peace OF Europe. Doll
fuss has done much TO avert war by
his firm attitude in repulsing the Nazi
government in his country.
e He said that his first move in the
coming campaign would be to visit
every county in Pennsylvania and
make the acquaintance of the party
workers. He expects to leave New York
for his home late today.
A delegation of Pennsylvania Demo-
Gratis met the boat. Among them were
David Lawrence, the Democratic State
chairman, and Joseph F. McGuffey a
candidate for the State Senate.
Returning with Mr.. Earle were his
wife and four young sons, who have
been visiting in various European
countries since he resigned as Aus
trian Minister.
