CONTINOUS SHOWS SATURDAY FUHRER LIVED IN LUXURY AT Hitler Lied to German Peo ple by Telling Them He Shared Hardships of War "By Jack Fleischer United Press Correspondent Hitler's Eagle Nest, Atop Kehl. stein Mountain, May 7. (De layed) (U.PJ Adolf Hitler lied to his German people when he told them he too was sharing the hardships of war. ' For here atop towering Kehl stein mountain, Hitler lived in luxury at his Bavarian retreat, far too lavish for a man who pretended to be suffering the same burdens as his people. The one-time Nazi fuehrer called this sumptuous- hideout his eagles nest. And lt was an appropriate name. It is really a dream house in the clouds, nestled, among the snow drifts on an Alpine peak, 7,500 feet above sea level. Breath-Taking View From the over-size windows in the huge salon are breath-taking views. On one side are snow covered mountain peaks, some times glistening In the sun, then wrapped in clouds of mist. Be low in the valley is the town of Berchtesgaden and the bomb smashed ruins of Hitler's more permanent residence. It took a two and a half hour exhausting climb over snow drifts up to 12 feet deep to reach Hitler's eagles nest. At the top we found a good-size building of extremely solid construction, with walls about three feet thick of quarried limestone blocks. Large Rooms In front of the building was a medium-sized hall which led straight to a magnificent dining room, about 24 feet wide and SO feet long. The walls and ceiling were beautiful walnut with white oak panels. In the center Iclmut DANTINI Andrea KINO Raymond MASSIY Starts sun. for 3 Days was a black walnut table, cap able of seating 26 persons. Side boards and buffets along the walls were filled with exquisite Meissner china, of a fine red dragon motif on a white back ground. Beyond at a slightly lower level was an almost circular salon, about 50 feet in diameter. The walls were mauve blocks of limestone and the ceiling white oak open beams with white plas ter between. In the center was a two-foot high table, about 10 feet in diameter, while around the walls were a couple of big davenports and about SO com fortable chairs. t Years To Build Opposite the salon's five huge windows was a fireplace, front ed with chocolate-colored mar ble with white streaks. The In. terlor had a cast-iron lining dl' vlded in three panels. The center panel bore the date 1938, when the building was finished after two years work. Those two rooms, together with an ultra-modern kitchen of stainless steel and completely electrified, a 60-foot arched ter race overlooking the valley and a well and finely stocked wine cellar, were typical of the "simple-living" Hitler.

Edge is in Medford visiting his mother and step-father, Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Bliss, Kings Highway. Lt. Edge recently returned from 12 months overseas service in Persia, India and Palestine.
