Dr. Ludwig R. Sattler, a native of this city, and said to be a close confidant of Adolph Hitler, has sailed for Europe to report to the Nazi leader as to the alleged sentiment which Americans evince toward the German Fascist movement.
Sailing via a roundabout route, he is heading first toward South America, where he also will study the reaction toward Hitlerism. He will then cross the Andes for Buenos Aires where he will head for Germany.
At a farewell gathering held here and attended chiefly by members of German singing societies, Dr. Sattler asserted:
“Germany wants and favors a strong government. She wants a man of the type of Hitler, who is a 100 per cent patriot, to steer the ship of state—a strong man who will insist on Germany taking her place among the Great Powers in the family of nations”.
