President Hindenburg’s dismissal of the Bruening Government shows that he has returned to our side, says the “Voelkischer Beobachter”, the chief organ of the Hitlerist Party, which during the recent presidential elections, when he defeated Hitler, was attacking him as the “candidate of the Jews”.

We hope, the paper says, that President Hindenburg will now unite with Hitler to save the German nation.

The danger of civil war if Hitler comes into power is suggested by a proclamation by the powerful Socialist Party appearing to-day in its official organ, the “Vorwaerts”, calling upon the workers to stand ready to fight the new Government and the Hitlerists, even by force of arms.
