''The Russian revolution has caused
many nations to increase their arrna-

European countries and the United
States to land troops and to augment
their naval forces in the Far East re-
peatedly. The interests of Japan in

.NaziRanks;New
Oath Required
Million Functionaries
Swear Servility
To Hitler

NEW YORK. - Behind the SUP
posedly solid front Of the totalitarian
state, Nazi leaders are battling one
another to the point Of sheer In
subordination," says a special cor
respondent of the New York Times
In reporting the renewal Of the oath
Of allegiance to Adolf Hitler which
1,017000 Nazi functionaries took yes
terday.
The oath, which all are required
to repeat aloud in mass meetings
throughout the country, is the most
Servile oath ever exacted by a po-
litical leader. 1t is as follows:
Il swear answering loyalty TO
Adolf Hitler, and unconditional
obedience to him and to the lead
ers designated by him"
The oath, administered on the &C.
casion Of the anniversary of the
Nazi party's founding, is an attempt
to whip up loyalty to Hitler in the
face of a deep discord in his own
ranks, in the face of a growing crisis
and the failure OF all the Nazi
promises to improve conditions.
When giving a speech Saturday,
Hitler faltered several times, had to
have faulty memory prompted by
his assistant, Rudolf Hess, and coll
lapsed Immediately after he left the
platform.
In this speech he significantly sd-
mitted that the Nazis rule only by
force, and have no support among
the masses, when he said, ITO con-
quer power was our goal in the past;
to conquer Germany for our power
must be our goal in the future"

Sailors Mutiny on
British Cruiser in
Rush Trip to East
Cut Ship Adrift When
Fed Short Rations
On Hasty Cruise

AUCKLAND, New Zealand (By
MaiD -Mutiny on British cruiser
at Gibraltar, on its way to Australia,
is reported by members of the crew
when the British flotilla arrived in
the Antipodes.
In protest against short rations and
bad meat, the sailors of one of the
British cruisers cut the craft adrift
and threw gear into the sea.
It is reported that the complement
Of men of the flotilla on its way to
the Far East was suddenly greatly
enlarged because Of Britain's war
preparations in the East, and the
warships were rushed out without
adequate preparations for cruising in
the tropics. A large quantity of the
meat provisions was found to be bad,
IS well, with the result that the sail
ors were forced to go on short rations,
without any meat.
