..Iron, Chaneellom kept a strong
hold on bewildered Germany to
day, continuing. his relentless su
pression of a second revolution.
Heads that Hitler once said
“will rol," have rolled. A grim
new warning has gone out: “Those
who conspire against the stats
may rest assured they ai'e play
ing who their own heads.”
Neivoue fear and uncertainty
gripped the country, following a
week-end of mutiny and blood
shed. Government spokesmen
however, insisted the country was
quiet and that the danger of au
oth’er revolution was ended, by
Herr Hitler's swift and determined
move.
Nevertheless today Vienna re-'
. ports said th.it arrivals in Vienna
from ‘the German border said they
heard cannon Are from the direc
tion of Munich where Hitler did
most of his mopping up Saturday.
The number dead has been
fixed unoflflcially at eighteen but
observers expect that dorens of
names will soon be added. An
thorities admitted that .im■ •' add
itional names are yet to b<- pub
lished. Two government officials
returned frojn a visit to Hindeu
bi.tg at Neudeck and. reported tlie
President was in good health and *
good mood.
President von Hiudenbugr feent
congratulations to Hitler for having
‘saved the Fatherland from set-} >us
danger.”
Rrnst Hoehtn, leader of the Nazi
storm troops and a cabinet mem
ber without a portfolio, was ex
ecuted last night after refusing
the alternative of suicide. Ten
additional storm ^roop leaders
were reported “liquidated,” Sun
day. An innkeeper- and lawyer
at Munich were also executed as
traitors.
One official said that the for
eign power referred to by the
government as having fomented
the attempted revolt, was France.
Scores, and possibly, hundreds of
Nyxl storm l rooft sub-leaders a^
under arrest,, with the possibility
of being given a chance to “sui
cide.”
Predictions of a return to a
monarchy ar,. heard frequently,
while others believed that Hitler
Is firmly stationed now.
