WHEN WAR COMES
Drastic Preparations Made
to Meet Menace on
Home Front.
By ELIAS TOBENKIN.

NEW YORK, Feb. 8 (N.AN.A).-
Direct oficial information from Berlin,
via Czechoslovakia. has reached New
York that the National Socialist gov
ernment is making drastic prepare
tions to suppress mass uprisinks
throughout Germany "in the event Of
another war;" and especially should
such war come sooner than
expected"
This information Is contained in 4
printed copy Of an address made by
Heinrich Himmler. chief Of the Ger
man political police and one OF the
key men Of the Hitler regime. before
the ofncers' corps. the elite Of the
German army. Despite the utmost
military secrecy which surrounded the

war, they must figure on two distinct
war theaters-one against the foreign
enemy. and another against the oppo-
nents Of the Nazi regime in Germany
proper. He told the officers that his
own security troops" would take care
of the domestic war phase and de-
scribed at length the composition.
training and ornaments of the troops
designed to suppress civil war at
home. which he commanded.
In informed circles in New York
it is reliably asserted that it was the
approaching specter of civil war and
not the comparatively trivial incident
OF Field Marshal Won Blomberg's mar
rage to "commoner" that brought
about the latest German army purge.
In the event of civil war in Germany
Chancellor Hitler is determined to keep
the army on the side of the National
Socialist regime. Hence his assump-
ton OF the office of war minister. BY
this ne hopes to be able to keep in
closer touch with the army.
No Easy Task at Home.
Herr Himmler warned the army
chiefs that his department, the army,
and the National Socialist regime gen.
orally, would have no easy task in 4
struggle with the opposition forces
at home.
I'VE must be perfectly clear about
that" Herr Himmler said. If We
are to be successful in our foreign
war operations. We must break up and
destroy this domestic opposition to
war. 1t is not an opposition in a
military sense only. 1t is an ideo-
logical opposition 1t is an opposition
to Nazi Weltanschauung."
He was keeping 5000 political lead
ers and spokesmen Of the former oppo-
sition parties in concentration camps,
Herr Himmler stated. This number,
instead OF being diminished, would be
increased in the near future, he said.
