BERN. Switzerland, Jan. Gre
liable information arriving from
Germany indicated today that Adolf
Hitler's brown. shirted Storm Troop
ers no longer play an important role
in the Nazi party and may soon
cease to function altogether.
The organization. called the S. A.
(Sturm Abteilung) always has borne
the brunt of the party's heavy work
since early days. 1t was said to be
slipping since shortly after the be-
ginning Of the campaign against
Russia.
The first indication came when
the organizations newspaper, Die
S. A., ceased publication in August
with no ofIicial explanation. Mem
bers who inquired were told simply
that the action was taken because
Of a paper shortage.
Next came an order calling large
percentage of s. A. men to the colors
in the regular army instead OF as
signing them Storm Troopers duties
as in previous campaigns. They now
wear army uniforms and are mixed
in the same units with ordinary SOL
diers.
The most recent move was the
secret order forbidding S. A. men to
hold meetings. No explanation was
given.
neutral observer. however, who
has Just come from Berlin. said the
real reason was the fact that some
of the Storm Troop meetings had
turned into forums for criticizing the
conduct of the Russian campaign.
The s. A., the backbone Of Nazi
party organization since the party's
birth. formed a party militia which
aided Hitler's rise to power. Capt.
Ernst Roehm, chief Of the Storm
Troopers, was executed in the Nazi
blood purge June 80, 1884.
