Hitler's Rise To Power Recalled On Anniversary
BERLIN (ff-Twenty-five years
ago today, Adolf Hitler and the
Nazi party took power in Ger
many and the "Thousand Year
Reich" was born.
The thousand years ended 12;
years later atter World War 11,
the murder of six million Jews,
the division of Germany and the
spread of Russian power.
"Today after 25 years one pon
ders again and again whether the
Hitler catastrophe was avoid
able," Socialist Sen. Paul Hertz
wrote in one West Berlin paper.
"One asks whether readiness at
the right time to resist and sacri
fice could have headed off the
catastrophe."
On the night of Jan. 30, 1933,
more than 150.000 enthusiastic
Germans packed Berlin's Wil
helmplatz in front of the Reich
Chancellery. A cadenced roar
swelled up: "We want to see our
Fuehrer! We want to see our
Fuehrer!"
The roar became a hysterical
scream when a tense figure in a
dark suit appeared, right hand up
raised and a lock of hair plastered
over his forehead. This was Adolf
Hitler, 43,,ex-Austrian house paint
er, former army corporal, and
now the new chancellor and mas
ter of Germany. '
From 7 p.m. until 1 a.m. legions
"of jubilant Nazis marched past
the chancellery balconv, chanting
"Heil Hitler." The Nazi Brown
Chicago Cops,
Cohen 'Chat'
CHICAGO Wl Chicago police
met West Coast hoodlum Mickey
Cohen as he arrived at Midway
Airport yesterday and asked him
downtown for a "chat."
No charges were filed against
Cohen, police said, and he went to
police headquarters "of his own
volition."
"We just brought him in for a
that," Police Lt. Maurice Higgins
said, "and we plan to keep him
under surveillance during his stay
here." -
Cohen, an ex-convict and a big
time West Coast gambler, told po
lice he was in Chicago for three
or four days of personal business.
He is no stranger to Chicago
police.
Last May,- he wrote Police Com
missioner Timothy J. O'Connor,
complaining about special treat
ment the said Chicago police were
giving him.
"Instead of wasting the valuable
time of your men in watching me,
may I make a suggestion," he
wrote. "I will send you a daily
itinerary of my goings and com
ings, etc., and if you wish I will
call your office very hour to in
form you to my whereabouts."
Two police squad cars waited
for Cohen at the airport. When
he emerged from the airliner be
hind about 35 passengers, three
detectives met him.
The police escort apparently had
nothing to do with a Hollywood
night club brawl earlier in which
Cohen tangled with a waiter.
The waiter, Arthur M. Black,
30, said he was knocked to the
floor and beaten. He signed a bat
tery complaint against Cohen and
two John Does.
Cohen denied, to Chicago news
men that he beat the waiter.
'' "Nothing to it," he said. "Ab
solutely not."
Shirts went nut to clash .with Com
munist strung arm squads patrol
ling the workers' districts.
Hundreds of thousands of anti-
Nazi Berliners staved at home
that nisht. But abolt a million of
their fellow citizens turned out to
see and cheer as the Nazis tri
umphantly paraded through the
Brandenburg Gate, with drums
rolling, trumpets sounding and
flaming torches held high.
At a darkened window in the
old chancellery, not far from Hit
ler's balcony, a sick, aged man
silently watched. He was field
.Marshal Paul von Hindenburg,
president of Germany.
A few hours earlier the elder
statesman and national hero had
handed over the chancellorship to
Hitler. Now he stood there won
dering what the future held for
his beloved Germany.
Von Hindenburg, only three
days before, had reassured an
army friend: "You do not expect
me to call this Austrian corporal
to the chancellorship?"
Twice Von Hindenburg had
spurned Hitler's bid for control
although the National Socialists
had become the most powerful
single political party in the land.
It was only after caretaker cab
inets headed by Franz von Papen
and Gen. Kurt von Schleicher col
lapsed in quick succession that
Hindenburg was persuaded to em
power a coalition cabinet headed
by the man he despised. Hitler.
Only four days after becoming
chancellor, crying for "new living
space in the East," Hitler set out
on the road to World War II.
For the ex-house painter the
road led to what is now a rubble
covered field in Soviet-run East
Berlin. In the closing days of the
war, as the Russians thrust into
the heart of Berlin, Hitler and his
new bride, Eva Braun, committed
suicide in the big air raid bunker
behind the chancellery. Their bod
ies were carried outside in blan
kets, soaked with gasoline and
burnt.
There today remain the ruins of
the Fuehrer's air raid bunker, jut
ting up like some prehistoric relic.
The Russians have blown up
Hitler's chancellery and carted
away, the marble to decorate their
embassy in East Berlin. But along
the edge of the field, where Hitler
was cremated, red benches have
been set up. Here Germans come
to sit, and think mi doubt about
what happened there on Wilhelm
platz 25 years ago today.

one of the airplanes exploded. Oil

School Heads
Suicide
'EW YORK 1.41 Top school of
ficials say a junior high school
principal may have killed himself
because a grand juror threatened
him with indictment. The foreman
of the jury denies the charge.
The accusation came yesterday
at funeral services for George
Goldfarb, 55. principal of Brook
lyn's John Marshall Junior High
School.
On Tuesday, Goldfarb leaped
from the roof of his apartment
house at the time he was to make
his third appearance before the
Brooklyn grand jury. The panel
is probing crime and juvenile de
linquency in the public schools.
Charles H. Silver, president of
the City Board of Education, told
newsmen at Goldfarb's last rites
that the school principal had been
threatened with indictment and
"this probably caused him to take
his life. He was very worried."
As School Supt. William Jansen
listened and nodded approval Sil
ver said: "Several hours, before
Mr. Goldfarb appeared before the
grand jury last Thursday (for the
second lime) he came before the
Board of Education.
"In discussing with us his grand
jury interrogation, he said that a
juror had warned him he might
be. or could be, indicted."
No indication was given on what
charge Goldfarb could have-been
indicted.
Grand jury foreman A. George
Golden immediately issued a de
nial, terming Silver's statement
"a deliberate lie'." . adding that
Silver "made that up out of his
own mind to befuddle the public."
