Hitler Returns to Drink the Adulation of Berlin 7 hrongs

BERLIN, July 6 (U. P.).—Adolf Hitler returned to a | conqueror’'s w releome in Berlin today after eight weeks in the field at the head of German armies which overran the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Belgium and France and now are preparing tor a blitzkrieg against England. The most popular song among the throngs greeting Hitler was “we are sailing against England.” The Fuehrer's arrival at the Anhalter Railway Station, decked with flowers, was the signal for the start of a tumultuous oflicially organized demonstration by massed throngs lining the streets and square from the depot to the Reich's chancellory. Even greater significance attached to Hitler's return to Berlin as Italian Foreign Minister Count Galeazzo Ciano was speeding here by train from his air force command in northern Italy. He will confer with Hitler tomorrow, Hitler arrived at the Anhalter Station at 3:01 p, (7:01 a. m. Indianapclis Time) and with his entourage entered automobiles for the triumphant ride to the chancellory. Throngs, ordered by their party district chiefs to report, mingled with soldiers for the welcome. A call to greet the IFuehrer on an unprecedented scale had been issued through morning newspapers. Bands played along the line of march and flowers flags made the streets gay with color. High Army oflicials and Nazi party leaders greeted Hitler at the station and news that he had come back to Berlin set church bells ringing throughout thie O Chni) Simul taneously German radio announcer described
