...Government when he undertook to dicker for the butchers and promised them safe entry into Germany. This blunder was irretrievable but it gave intuitive Chancellor Hitler one of his bright ideas. He has long been looking for a way to ease German Vice Chancellor Franz von Papen, protég?? and "best comrade" of President von Hindenburg, out of his Cabinet (TIME, July 9). Impulsively Chancellor Hitler dashed off an effusive letter, "requesting you, Dear Herr von Papen to aid ... in [bringing] back to normal and friendly paths our long unfortunate relations to the German Austrian State. ... I have, therefore, . . . proposed...
Another protég?? of Coach Daughters is University of Washington's amazing Jack Medica, who, at the A. A. U. men's championships at Chicago month ago, broke the world's record for the mile in 20:57.8. smashing the records for the 350, 1,100 and 1,320-yd. distances on his way.

In simple khaki the little Chancellor entered with enormous Speaker G??ring, gorgeous in his self-designed uniform as a General of Aviation (see p. 16). Deputies bellowed "Heil Hitler!" General G??ring banged his bell, and then there was a long wait while the Chancellor fussed with his papers before he took the rostrum. When he spoke his voice at first lacked its usual barking force. "Deputies, men of the Reichstag," he husked, "by order of the Reich Government, the Reichstag's President G??ring called you together...
