...confidence, then immediately adjourn, leaving Herr Bruning to rule by decree. Last week the Reichstag met to pass on Dictator Bruning's latest "Emergency Cabinet." Fortnight ago his chances of survival seemed slender. Adolf Hitler's prestige was rising, he had been received by President von Hindenburg, and moderate Deputies longed for their lost authority, but when voting time came the threatening moderates (who complain of the Dictatorship) lost heart.

With him in his thundering Mercedes-Benz bounced Dr. Alfred Hugenberg, "Hearst of Germany.'' "the little man in blue" who leads a right faction of 41 Reichstag Deputies. Herr Hitler leads 107. Also represented at Bad Harzburg, where Hitler drums rumbled and Hitler songs rang through the leafy forest, was the Peasant's League of 19 Deputies. After Divine guidance had been invoked by a Lutheran pastor...
