Not only are the lovebirds keep ing nature lovers away from the park, the chief said, but they're also being unpatriotic. One vegetable-conscious man complained that some couples, driven out of the park by police, began to meet in his victory garden to pitch the woo. The result was that his bean patcn was destroyed,

W hat $ Become Of Herr Hitler?
LONDON, July 1 (U.

The theory highlighted renewed | speculation on Hitler's disappear- | ance from the Nazi spotlight, With Germany facing the greatest crisis of the war, his name has hardly been mentioned in Nazi propaganda broadcasts recently, Some commentators toyed with the possibility that Hitler had suffered a nervous collapse or had been shelved by the general staff. |
The idea lacked any responsible wiaghantistion.
