FASCISTS STAGE MILITARY SHOW FOR NAZI CHIEF 3,000 Picked Men Parade Strength, Discipline Before Hitler. By United Press VENICE, June 15.—Premier Benito Mussolini today' staged for Adolf Hitler, Nazi chancellor, a demonstration of Fascist strength and discipline which indicated vividly that if Fascism ever falls it will be by force of arms. Mussolini, trying to win Germany back to Europe's diplomatic councils, in a conference strangely mingled with spectacles ranging from the picturesque to the theatrical, treated Hitler to a vision of militant Fascism which he could compare with his Nazi brown shirt organization. For the purposes of the demonstration, he selected 3,000 picked members of the Fascist militia, the “advance guard” of young Fascists and the ballilla, the boys who will work themselves up to the proud rating of militiaman. New Salute Shown They were ranged in historic St. Marks square. They were equipped with rifles, machine guns and chemical weapons—perhaps a delicate reminder to Hitler that he may not legally arm his brown shirts under the Versailles treaty. Hitler and Baron Konstaintin Von Neurath, his foreign minister, w r ere escorted to a special pavilion, tray ■with Italian and Fascist flags and pennants. Hitler, pale, with disordered hair, was in a blue serge business suit. Mussolini and Hitler stood together and Mussolini gave the order for the march past. Hitler was treated to anew sort of salute for him—that of the Fascist orderlies, who raised their daggers as if about to strike an enemy. Students Interest Hitler Then came the light legions at a faster pace with rifles slung on their backs, then the mobile machine gun units, then the chemicals, then the advance guard with their red and gold scarfs hung on their shoulders, and the ballilla. A contingent of Fascist university students attracted Hitler, with their varicolored hats and their military formation. There were three bands to blare out the spirited marches of Italy. After the review the Fascist chief took the Nazi chief to the adjoining royal palace through lanes of cheering people, who looked as if they had been stationed there.
