 Nobody Doubts I Am Leader"
 His black hair tumbling across his forehead, his arms waving, Hitler who was born outside the boundar- ies of Germany, had shouted:
 Tn five years, have built up the Germany army. Nobody ~ doubts that I am the leader of the Reich.'
 At the beginning of his sixth year in power Hitler has a stronger grasp on a nation of 60,000,0O0 persons than ever before.
 His prestige has been immensely enhanced by his first successful steps in Nazifying the German army and diplomatic corps.
 He has taken long stride toward fulfillment of his ambition to create a greater Germany" by beginning 8 virtual political assimilation of Austria.
 He has brought about a "bloodless purge" of the army command with out shaking Nazi influence among the men who fight the battles-the common soldiers.
 Hitler's policy appears to be sort of jig-saw puzzle into which new pieces are fitted whenever time suits him to place them there. Yester- day he fitted in some pieces but there still are gaps because of the extraordinary secrecy that sur rounds anything concerning the army and because of the NaZis' dras- tic and effective control of the usual sources of information.
 Army Purge Puzzles
 It is difficult to understand the recent army purge unless it is kept in mind that under Nazi theology the party is the state and thus any disaffection toward the party constitutes disaffection toward the state. It is well known that many of the higher-placed German army officers always held themselves aloof from the Nazi regime just as they did from the Republican re- gime that preceded it. Hitler knew that many of these officers regarded the Nazis upstarts; that they thor oughly disagreed with such import ant phases of Nazi policy as the at- titude toward the church and to- ward political education within the army.
 This attitude persisted despite Hitler's generous treatment of the army. He gave it almost unlimited money. He doubled its size. He brought back into active service many of the old Prussian officers who almost constitute a caste in Germany. He restored these of- ficers to power, realizing full well that they would be a potential me- mace to the Nazis in any critical situation.
 Ignored Army Officers
 Twice at least-during the occu- patton of the Rhineland and when Hitler embarked upon his policy o1 intervention in the Spanish war army officers attempted to restrain him. He ignored their advice.
 For months Hitler has been caught between two forces, the army and Nazi officialdom. To the Nazis, the attitude of the high army officers was serious offense. They urged Hitler to deal with this virtual state within a state" and bring everyone into allegiance to the Swastika. In the light of what has happened since, it develops that Hit Ter merely was waiting favorable
