.TANNENBURG, East Prussia,
President Paul Won Hindenburg
was returned to rest forever in the
soil he made historic by his vic
tory of Tannenberg over the Great
Russian "steam rollero in 1914.
Over his body Adolf Hitler, who
became supreme ruler of the ma
ton when Hindenburg died, called
him the guardian of the nation IS
rebirth.
1t was a funeral grafton, devoted
to eulogy of the dead soldier
statesman. But in it was the
thought that Hitler, the war time
corporal and the Nazi fuehrer,
would continue without pause the
late president IS work of remaking
a nation.
Pride in Germany's S arms was in
the speech, expressed by mingling
Hindenburg name with his mar
tial victories.
Hindenburg, Hitler said, was
called too late to the supreme COM
mand. But even then, he con-
tinued, he won victory after VIC
tory, inspiring the German army
to attack instead Of defend.
Then he was called back as pres
ident after years of retirement,
Hitler said.
Guardian Of Revolution
cit is one of the most wonder
full guidances of providence that
under the presidency of this great
est of soldiers and servants of the
ideals of our nation, preparation
could be made and the portals fin
ally opened for the resurrection OF
the nation.
"As president of the reich and
field marshal he became the guard
ian of the National Socialist rev.
olution, and thus of the rebirth OF
the nation"
In the ringing voice of the ora
tor who has the power to magne-
tie Germans, Hitler concluded:
dead war lord, enter now into
Valhalla.'
A few minutes later for the first
time since Hindenburg's death the
Nazi fife and drum corps, in ac-
cordance with military tradition,
played in the streets.
Hindenburg body remaining ly-
ing in state today while millions OF
people passed before it in the great
memorial that marks his victory.
His body will lie in the field mar
shall s tower of the great memorial,
symbol of Germany'S martial
valor.
