Hitler Saved Army,
Explaining Troops
Oath of Fealty

yesterday was full of gratitude to
Hitler.
Not merely because he had re-
moved the storm troops as a COM
petitor to the army. That was the
impression yesterday. Today with
this new light it becomes clear
that the general staff was
frightened. In all probability the
insane plan of Ernst and Roehm
could never have succeeded and
the Reichswehr would have swept
ErnSt's aSSaSsinS to death under
a hurricane of machine gun fire.
But there it was, after all, no
pleasant prospect. And no mat
ter how the attack on the Reichs.

have meant civil war between the
army and the storm troops all
over Germany, with tens of thou.
sands dead.
Army Takes Oath
So the army took the oath yes
terday. This correspondent saw
them do it in the barracks of the
Berlin guard in Rathenowerstrasse
It was an impressive ceremony,
with a regiment drawn up in a
hollow square and General Won
Witzleben barking out, two words
at a time, the formula that meant
from now on every man in the
German army is sworn personally
to obey Hitler and defend his oath
with his life.
In every barracks on every
naval vessel the fighting services
swore. The bass drum doomed.
The strains of Deutschland uber
Allies" floated over silent heads
of rigid thousands. Hitler was
their war lord.
Herewith Hitler has attained
a position quite without parallel
in any country in the world.

News Service)
BERLIN, Aug. 3 U.N.S0.-Why
the German army accepted Hitler
and let a one-time corporal ap-
point himself commander-in-chief
was explained for the first time
today by information hitherto un-
revealed and possessing historical
Importance.
It makes clear what was not
clear yesterday because, with all
the reasons that could be deduced
for the passivity of the Reichswehr
on the death of Won Hindenburg
and for their willingness to swear
the oath of allegiance to Hitler,
many persons were surprised that
the army so easily gave up its last
chance to obtain a commander-in-
chief Of its own choosing.
Hitler Story Confirmed
It is consequently also ex-
planned why Hitler was able to
get all the power in his hands
and thus usher in new period
of German history.
Finally it is information which
would have added to the credit
ability of Hitler's account of the
Roehm conspiracy but which had
to be withheld from the German
public for discretionary reasons.
Simply put, the information is
this:
That for 10 days before June
80, when Hitler put down the
storm troops revolt, the general
staff of the army carried their
service revolvers. Generals and
colonies of the Prussian army do
not usually go armed.
They carried guns because they
had learned that the storm
troopers planned to kill them in
what would have been the most
extraordinary massacre in mod
ern political history.
Ernst Picked Troops
The central element in Roehm's
plot was indeed to be surprise
attack on the Reichswehr min
istry. Karl Ernst, group leader
of 250,000 storm troops in Ber-
lin, had picked 10000 shock
troops to occupy the center Of
Berlin and the government
quarters on the afternoon of
June 80. Out of this 10000
selected number of the most re-
liable men were chosen as
murder squad.
This squad, after the Reichs-
wehr Ministry had been sur
rounded, was to enter the build
ing and then and there shoot
down the general staff.
The essential element in the
planned action, however, was sur
prise. Now comes the first credit
able information of the flight of
Ernst to Bremen where he was
arrested on the morning Of June
80. Critics of the Hitler version
of the conspiracy have objected
that Ernst could not have been
planning an attack in Berlin
Saturday afternoon if he was IN
Bremen Saturday morning. But
now it has become known that
Ernst had learned that the gen.
eral staff was apprised of the
conspiracy.
Ernst Quitting
Roehm wanted to go ahead
anyway on the assumption that
Ernst, with his numerically su-
perior troops, could fight his
way into the Reichstag Ministry
even if the general staff got a
few Reichswehr troops into town
quickly enough to defend the
building. Ernst said nothing but
privately made up his mind to
quit. He was quitting when he
was arrested at Bremen with
steamship tickets and 100000
marks in his pocket.
Now it is easy to see why the
army accepted Hitler yesterday.
The army depends entirely on
what its general staff decides.
There never was any question of
divisional commanders acting on
their own. and the general staff

Ex-NRA Heads in Industry
Barred From Bureaus

Evidence that certain NRA Of
ficials have used their offices
to obtain big-salary jobs with
commercial houses was obtained
at NRA headquarters today.
With the disclosure that four
former officials Of the NRA are
now in the employ of industries,
either in the capacity Of help"
ing them administer their Cos
or in executive positions, NRA
officials have tightened up on
regulations forbidding these men
to appear before bureaus where
they formerly were employed.
The officials now employed by
industry are: Major Richard B.
Paddock, w. w. Pickard, A. B.
Dickinson and Patrick Taft.
$25,OOO Salary
Major Paddock, formerly deputy
administrator in charge Of the
oil burners, jewelry and ice codes
Is now with the Cotton Garment
Institute of New York. His salary
is said to be between $25, 900
and $4,000 a year."
In this capacity he will be ex-
pected to help in the administra
ton of his industry's code. A
retired Army officer, Major Pad,
dock, resigned March 13 from
the NRA. He had been receiving
$4,000 a year. NRA officials said
today they have no right to ask
a curtailment of his salary with
the garment institute.
Mr.. Pickard, former deputy
administrator in charge Of the
pulp and paper codes, at a
salary of $4,000 a year, is now
with the pulp and paper groups
Trade papers said his salary now
is $1,000 a year.
Dickinson In List
Mr.. Dickinson, former assistant
to Major Paddock, IS now his as
sistant in the Garment Institute.
Mr.. Taft, formerly an assistant
deputy administrator in the NRA
Is now with the code authority o.
the candy manufacturers.

Plan for Board to Fix Prices
and Control Output Hit
As "MonopoIistiC"

Efforts of the NRA and pro-
ducers of newsprint paper to fix
prices and limit production en-
countered adamant opposition to-
day Wien the American News
paper Publishers Association
flatly refused to assent to the eS'
tablishment Of a newsprint plan
ming and adjustment board OF
nine members.
The opposition was voiced by
Bainbridge Colby, former Secre'
tary Of State, and Elisha Hanson,
counsel for the A. N. P. A.
Court Decree Violated
The NRA plan, both speakers
c.ntended, is a flagrant attempt
to violate a 17-year-old Federal
court decree, and seeks to set up
q newsprint monopoly, under the
guiSe Of an emergency.
Pulp producers in the United
States and Canada, by their ruse
Of last year, already have disre-
garded the 1917 decree and are in
contempt of the United States
courts" Mr.. Colby declared. He
continued:
1--WE are now asked to approve
their lawleSS conduct to protect
them in their violation Of Fed
eraI decree"
Mr.. Colby argued that the emo
tional period the NRA had passed,
and that the Government must
now conduct itself within reason" I"
Excitement" he said, "is never
Q substitute for judgment"
Injunction Inclusive
The 1917 decree issued from the
United States District Court of
southern New York enjoined each
of a number Of newSprint manu-
facturers in the United States and
Canada, doing business in the
United States:
From entering into any
combinations, agreement, un.

rate defendant or with any
other manufacturer Of news

or effect to limit or restrict

print paper it should make or
sell: or to limit or restrict
itself as to the service 1t should
render to its customers or the
prices, terms or conditions
upon which it should sell or
offer to sell newsprint paper"
The hearing was called by Lieut..
David Tulley, recently named to
succeed w. w. Pickard, deputy
administrator in charge of the
pulp paper section, Mr.. Pickard
left the NRA to become coordina-
tor Of the IA industries under the
MIRA, dealing with paper.
