Costly Remark
A sarcastic remark which got
back to Hitler and contributed to
the tragedy OF the Austrian ansch.
luss, was dropped by the Austrian
chancellor, Kurt Schusschnigg, who
referred TO Hitler as the "saeulen-
heiliger" or pillar saint. This Is
common expression IN Germany
meaning tigurehead 81 piety but
as used by Schusschrigg 1t con-
cerned a sly dig at Hitler's pre-
objection for columns in architec-
ture as we'll as to his general une-
tious bearing. Franz Won Papen.
then minister at Vienna. with
seeming casualness repeated
Schusschniggs remark TO Hitler
Just As hours before the Rustrian
chancellor was received at Beren-
tsgarden. The result, as Papen
had hoped, was that schusschnigs
was treated with brutal contempt
by Hitler.
This fascination OF Hitler's col
umns incidentally is interpreted by
medical specialists as revealing his
sub-conscious presumption with
the column as q phallic symbol.
On the occasion OF the remodeling
OF Hitler's house ~ Berchtessaden.
Goering, who often shows an ironi-
cal turn OF humor said TO Architect
Albert Speer jokingly: Yes, but
this hall should have 400 columns
in IT," This remark reached Hit
Ter, who completely missed the
irony in II and considered II a
sincere and wise observation on
the part OF his chief deputy.
Likes Music
One OF Hitler's great means OF
release and escape from the world
is music. Yet, strangely, enough,
Hitler personally Is highly un-
musical He cannot whistle or
sing. Very few people know that
for several years he tried TO tootle
a flute presented to him by the
Belgian rexist leader dc Grelle, In
1895. He never got beyond the first
rudiments, although he Is able to
pick out simple tunes on a mouth
organ.
To see Hitler at concert Is int
eresting. particularly II he feels
that he il not being watched. His
face may vr,mace in pain or pleas
ure his brows screw up. his mouth
knots and his eyes close raptur-
ously.
Wagner. OF course, is his favorite.
He once said. For me Wagner is

Sept. Is - (PD - AS casual as

early today and showed police
where he tossed the body of one
of the two young sisters he con-
fessed he kidnapped, raped and

The police chief said Haight
related these details:
He attempted to rape Mar

fight him off, he mutilated her
with large hunting knife;
then he strangled her. He placed
the body in the car alongside
her gagged sister and drove
back to town where he stopped
in front of a store, went in and
bought package of razor

He drove north a mile and
tossed the body in creek.
Frightened children found it
there yesterday, floating face
up.
From there he drove to the
top of an incline overlooking
the reservoir, took Helen from
the car and raped her, then
placed her under the car and

into eight feet of water.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16-(F
Fuel oil rationing possibly

In addition to the II Atlantic

in these 13 middle western
states:
Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois,

and Kentucky.
In an order last night author

man Donald M. Nelson of the
War Production Board said the
shortage of oil remains Sc
rious," despite shifts in trans
portation and conversions to
coal.
The fuel oil shortage, result
ing as it does from a loss of
(tanker) transportation, is a
war burden that should be
spread over the country as far
