cruahod Nazism. It was slicniticnnt thcrofore that Blomberg in the post mortem pro < lamatlon to the Reichswehr said: ■'Our grief la mingled with pride that he wns one of ours. Ills ex- . ample will forever admonish uh to devote our lives to the Fatherland. "Remembering this heroic figure Iwe march into the future full of confidence in the fuehrer. Adolf Hitler." It watt Hindenburg’s epitaph and Hitler's commission as commander in chief. As if it were a routine affair, the law passed by the cabinet, making Hitler a parallel in oßffce to the president of the United States, was promulgated. It Midi: "Article I.—The office of Keich i president will be united with that |of chancellor. In conseiiuence the I previous prerogatives of the president are transferred to the leader j and Chancellor Adolf Hitler, who I will appoint his deputy. "Article 2.—This law is effective with the death of President Von : Hindenburg.” ■ It seemed impossible to overemphasize Hitler's new control over I the army. There was some critiI cism by higher officers of the manner in which the June 30 storm revolt was suppressed and of the ' earlier outbteaks of the Nazi rad- | icals whom the suppression of the I revolt quieted hut the new turn of

There Is a perilous foreign situation which forbids thought of Internal strife among men as traditionally loyal to the country as army men, Even those who expect pressure from Reichswehr officers believe that the present would be an 111 chosen, time for settling domestic accounts.

The great Neudeck estate was a scene of peace this morning. | There was little to show that an i event of world imtiortance bad | occurred there. Cattle and sheep l grazed in the pastures. The weather was warm and at I I first sunny. After Hindenburg) bad died, however, a mist arose as

though symbolic of the passing of a hero and wrapped itself around the castle. From a distance the halftnasted flag was barely |>erceptible. Farm laborers from the president's estate and the neighborhood worked In the fields, harvesting the crops ao urgently needed by the relch. Their work could not wait but they were subdued and mournful. They tried to do their morning chorea as quietly as possible, refraining from conversation and driving slowly to keep down the noise. Gradually the sun dteipelled the mist and the castle emerged liatli-1 < d in a goldi n glow. The flag drooped on its mast, stirring slightly in a light breeze. The president's fatal illness was due to a combination of bladder and prostrate disease which over the course of his declining years broke down his rugged constitution. Seven months ago physl- | clans pleaded with him to give in and go to bed for proper treat i ment. He would not vield. The news was flushed to the 1 expectant chancelleries of Europe, ! I which awaited with concern the I passing of the former warrior who ! had coins Io symbolize a restrain-' ing hand in Germany on Nazi i excesses and a force for peace in) [ Europe. The nation learned of his death

first when 45 minutes after his heart ceased Is ,it ing Paul Joseph Goebbels, Nazi minister of propa ganda, announ<ed over the wire less: "German people!

Similar reports were received by the family when the body was | brought here for burial. At that | tiyie, however, no effort was made ; to substantiate the rumors. Members of the Dillinger family ' have been appearing at an Indian apolis theater this week, answer-) Ing questions about the career of their infamous relative. They were reticent to discuss i the plan to exhume the body. "I have the permit but I don’t ' know what we will do with it." the) [father said. Emmett Hancock, the desper- i ■ados brother-in-law, was just as vague. i “I don't know that we are going; to exhume the body,” lie said. "We) [got the permit so that we would have it in case we did decide to |

i have it exhumed.'* i Most questions, however, were referred to Samuel .1. Mantel, attorney recently acquired by the family, "It is entirely up to Mr. Dilll inger," he said, but admitted that )the only purpose for a new autopsy I would lie to establish grounds fori a damage suit against Cook eoun:ty. The Cook county coroner would .lie named principal defendant if | t such suit were brought,” he added. As the elder Dillinger stood back I stage between acts yesterday, he I was heard to tell his daughter, i Mrs. Audrey Hancock: "I understand Cook county is ; liable for 120,000.” The Dillinger act will close its I Indianapolis appearance tonight. ' It lias been a "flop" except on the opening day so far as box office attraction is concerned. May Seek Damages Chicago. Aug. 2. — (U.R)-John f Dillinger's relatives have recourse in civil action against the persons j that might be guilty of having remold'd the brain from America's | leading public enemy, it was declared here today. i Undertaker Ray Mcßeady, who I prepared Dillinger's body for shipment to Indiana, yesterday startled I county officials with the announce--1 ment that Dillinger's brain had . been supplanted with plaster of I t>ajis in the county morgue. Cor-

oner Frank J. Walsh and his stall I of autopsy surgeons denied remov- | Ing the whole lirafti. They took I portions for toxicology, tin coroner said. Assistant State's Attorney Chalies S. Dougherty declared the crim- I Inal code di<l not embody a statute dealing with such practices.
