Year ago not only the foreign Press but hundreds of intelligent observers in Germany honestly believed that the Junker Government of General von Schleicher and Col. von Papen had definitely ended the growth of Hitlerism in Germany. Anxious not to repeat the same mistake, observers have this year watched the fight of little Chancellor Dollfuss of Austria against Naziism with marked scepticism. They know that Austria's 6,500,000 are still nearly 50% pro-Nazi. They know that as a matter of prestige Adolf Hitler, who once roamed the streets of Vienna hungry, is willing to spend time...
...Tycoons & Junkers. When worried President von Hindenburg let "Safeguard Minister" Dr. Hugenberg go last week he withdrew support from Germany's most pampered class-his closest friends and neighbors, the East Prussian Junkers (landed proprietors). The Junkers, sunk as a class in debt, have clung to their lands for years through special Government grants of credit and decrees to block foreclosure. Chancellor Hitler appointed as Minister of Agriculture a Nazi famed as "The Friend of the Small Farmer," Herr Walter Darré.

...Chicago. The nearest he came to taking a direct crack at Nominee Roosevelt was: "We should stop talking about the Forgotten Man and about class distinctions. ... In no other country is there so little evidence of economic class hatred, so little encouragement to the Communist, the Fascist or the Junker. . . . Just now all of our people are in trouble. The old rich are the new poor. . . . The Forgotten Man is a myth and the sooner he disappears from the campaign the better it will be for the country."
