...party, arriving in Berlin, were treated with the greatest consideration. The President's daughter was given a great big bouquet of yellow roses tied with a red bow (on which was stamped a swastika). The party, taken to the Adlon Hotel to wash up, found their suite banked with "more flowers than had ever been in the hotel before." (There were also more steel-helmeted military sentries in the hotel than usual.) As a sobering sight, Nazis let Dr. Hácha review some troops while he waited...

Under the swastika Germany was unified. His was no ordinary dictatorship, but rather one of great energy and magnificent planning. The "socialist" part of National Socialism might be scoffed at by hard-&-fast Marxists, but the Nazi movement nevertheless had a mass basis. The 1,500 miles of magnificent highways built, schemes for cheap cars and simple workers' benefits, grandiose plans for rebuilding German cities made Germans burst with pride. Germans might...
