HITLER HELD.
CERTAIN Of
VICTORY
Foes of Nazi Chiettain Afraid
to Cast Ballots; Poll Is
Mere Formality
By PIERRE HUSS

BERLIN, Aug. 3 U.N.S0.-The
German army supports the ReichS-
fuerher to a man.
Gen. Werner Won Blomberg,
Minister of War, so informed
Adolf Hitler when he called at
the Chancellery at noon today
and announced that 100000
soldiers had taken the unusual
oath of personal allegiance to
the former lance-corporaI who
became both president and chan
celor of the Reich with the death
of Field Marshal Paul Won Hin
denburg yesterday.
Troops on vacation will swear
allegiance upon their return, Won
Blomberg said.
Both the army and navy hav-
ing recognized Hitler as their
commander, his power over Ger
many is now indisputable and the
plebiScite Minister of Interior
Frick has called for August 10 to
ratify his accession to supreme
power is only a formality.
49,. Victory Is Certain
It is generally believed that at
least 80 per cent of those who
go to the polls will support him.
Despite the fact that he has
locked horns with Jews, Catholics,
Socialists and Communists and
has even crushed a rebellion
within his own ranks, there is no
doubt about the result on August
10. Though the voting is to be
free and secret" large masses Of
opponents of the Hitler regime
are certain to rmain away from
tn polls, fearing that by casting
their ballots against Hitler they
might involve themselves in seri-
Gus difficulties.
These include some Of Hitler's
own storm troopers, many Of
whom still harbor bitter resent
ment over the execution of Cap
tain Roehm and other storm
troop leaders in the June 80
"purging."
Preparations for this election
today transcended in importance
the preparations for a state fu-
neral for President Paul Won Hin
denburg, lying in state in his Neu-
deck home, a funeral ceremony so
impreSSively grand that the nation
will be more than satisfied that
the National Socialists were not
remiSS in honoring its hero.
The campaign for this election
will begin Monday, when EitleY
will address the all-Nazi ReichStag
and the whole nation over the
radio, paying his tribute to the
dead war hero and pledging him
self to use his new powers and
new responsibilities in creating a
glorious future for the Reich.
'POwer From People"
"Steeped in the conviction that
all authority of the state must
proceed from the people," as he
said in his letter to Minister of
the Interior Wilhelm Frick, ask
ing him to arrange the election,
Der Fuehrer seeks to show the
world that he rules a nation of
amenable Hitlerites.
This coming election will be an

"Buzzie" from custody of one
parent to the other was effected

Dali will have the children for a
couple of weeks" and then they
will return to their mother.
The Dalls were at some pains
to see that they did not meet
personally.
"Sistie" and "Buzzie" came into
Chicago from the West with their
mother, their nurse. Katy, and
Benjamin Rich, of the U. S. Sc
cret Service.
The father, Gurus Dali, was al
the train platform. "Sistie," highly
excited little girl of Z with a mum
ber of Roosevelt teeth missing
from her Roosevelt smile, came
down the platform tugging Katy's
hand and then wiggled into her
fathers arms. "Buzzie" trotted
solemnly along. The whole party
went pell-mell down the main
stairway to a Government auto
mobile and sped away.
Mrs. Dali was to take an after
noon train for washington. She
said:
"There is nothing to the rumOr
that I am engaged to marry a
Washington newspaper man. I
am going to work"

TWO hours of trolling with n1innows
drew a blank. One hour of casting
into submerged tree-tops and
stumps on sheltered shore pro-
duced one twelve-inch big mouth on
an Al Foss pork rind bait.
Another half-hour of minnow
trolling on the edge of the old
channel produced nothing. We
abandoned the lake as an I'M
profitable business.
A visit to the Oakdale dam con-
WINGED us that that wasn't the spot,
either. The crowds lining the con-
crete were doing poorly, though a
few silver bass had been taken, and
the word was out that fine strings
of small mouth had been lured in
on Friday and Saturday.
So down we went, several miles
below the dam, to a place where the
river slipped down a rifle into a
fairly deep, long pool. There we
tried minnows again, casting them
out into the current and letting
them float down a hundred feet,
with small bobber to keep them
just off the bottom. Still no luck.
Along came three anglers in a
boat, casting artificial lures They
took two bass out of our pool. They
were using the same pork rind bait
that had snagged our only fish that
morning.

hour, all in the same stretch.
1t proves again the thing that
we are most likely TO forget-that
you have to keep trying until you
find what they want. In that terri
tory, at least, bass did not want
minnowS that day.
Furthermore. they were particular
about the artificial bats that they
cracked down" on. Today it might
be only a surface plug with a red
head, tomorrow helgramites, next
day anything, next day nothing. But
the fact that all the fish that we
saw caught on Sunday were fooled
by exactly the same bait, keeps me
sold on the idea that bass are usual
ly selective feeders.
Anglers that have favorite lure
and stick to it will challenge these
statements. Maybe so. but a lot of
the fun is in mixing EN- up and if
we had stuck to minnows on Sunday
I might not be eating bass tonight.

This is not an attack on union

This is aimed directly at the

use the banner Of union labor
and a "new DEAF government
and the National Industrial Re-

violence and lawlessness which
strike at the very foundations of
