A meeting of the committee of the new organization was held today, at which, it is stated, the discussion turned on how to bring about a change in the present Constitution of Germany. Speeches urging the unity of all the Nationalist forces were delivered by Commandant Seldte, the leader of the Steel Helmet Brigade, Field-Marshal von der Goltz, Aldolf Hitler, Herr Hugenberg, and Herr Thyssen, the great coal magnate.
When Hugenberg, some months ago, assumed the leadership of the German Nationalist Party, the Democratic organizations expressed the fear that the addition of a new strong and reactionary personality with a wide range of economic power woud lead to the fusion into one big body of all the reactionary parties in the country. He is looked to as aiming to overthrow the present Democratic regime in Germany and replace it by a dictatorial government based on Fascist lines. Herr Hugenberg is an avowed monarchist and anti-parliamentarian. From the time he accepted the leadership of the German Nationalist Party, he has been working for a close collaboration with the Steel Helmet Brigade and the Hitlerite Party, both organized on semi-military lines.
