Last week, with 25 trade control boards furiously functioning under German Economic Dictator Dr. Hjalmar Horace Greeley Schacht, official trade figures were released in Berlin. They showed that Germany's favorable trade balance of 1,072,000,000 marks in 1932-the last pre-Hitler year-declined in 1933 to a favorable balance of 667,000,000, then slumped deeply in 1934 to an unfavorable balance...
...Fuhrer's train was brought to an emergency stop nearly two kilometers from the collision. Alighting with Economic Dictator Dr. Hjalmar Schacht and Defense Minister General Werner von Blomberg, Herr Hitler strode back through the fog. At the fatal crossing he found 13 corpses.

Same day in Berlin that master bluffer of international finance. Dr. Hjalmar Schacht, President of the Reichsbank and newly created ''Economic and Financial Tsar," suddenly issued a manifesto to the effect that "Germany, if necessary, can dispense with all raw material imports." This presumably was the opening move of Dr. Schacht, who always starts from zero, in a game to jockey the British cotton...
