...servants say that Oscar must be nearly as old as the President's son, spruce Lieut.-Colonel Oscar von Hindenburg. With his nameless mate Oscar spends his winters in Africa, as do most East Prussian storks, but summer finds him always back at Neudeck to bring not babies but good luck to the 86-year-old Reichspräsident. In backward, superstitious East Prussia nothing is so unlucky for a great landed Junker as to lose his stork. "Take care of Oscar" the President benignly commands when leaving Neudeck, and Oscar, so peasants think, takes care of Old Paul...

...light for which Germans waited most anxiously was some dawning indication from President von Hindenburg of his attitude toward last week's massacre. Troubled more than usual by his prostate, the 86-year-old Reichsprasident was at his country estate at Neudeck in East Prussia attended by physicians so numerous that they were called a "major medical council." There were rumors that Old Paul was dead, promptly denied by his State Secretary Dr. Otto Meissner.

...never rests from his heroic labors, dashes constantly up and down the Fatherland in multi-motored planes, never smokes and subsists wholly on fruit, vegetables, nuts, and dairy products. Last week the Vegetarian Superman flew over Poland's hated Corridor to a big cozy country house at Neudeck in East Prussia. There he gripped hands with that hearty eater of tenderloin steaks, pork sausages, pigs-knuckles and chopped raw beef & onions, President Paul von Beneckendorff und von Hindenburg. In a sense the meeting was historic. It marked a knife line between the original Hitler Cabinet containing "Safeguard Ministers...

...Speaker acted unconstitutionally in permitting the Reichstag to vote censure after the Chancellor had flourished a presidential decree dissolving the Reichstag. This famed decree, when scrutinized last week, proved to be in the Chancellor's handwriting except for the signature of Paul von Hindenburg. It was dated at Neudeck, the President's country estate, but von Papen had scratched out "Neudeck" and written in "Berlin," evidently feeling that he thus made the decree more legal...
