Other Germans who merit executive clemency, the Realmleader decreed, will be pardoned by General Hermann Wilhelm Goring, Premier of Prussia, Air Minister and Grand Master of the Chase, who conducted the Nazi blood purge in Berlin while Herr Hitler was purging Munich (TIME, July 9).

...German Reichstag, or slightly more than 1% of its membership, are known to have been shot during Chancellor Hitler's blood purge (TIME, July 9). Thanking their stars last week, the other 99% turned out to cheer him. They were under no compulsion except that Reichstag Speaker Hermann Wilhelm Göring, whose secret police did much of the shooting, announced that any Deputy who did not appear would have to produce a doctor's certificate of illness...
