A shakeup in the German cabinet may he expected in the near future, I learn from a usually wellinformed source of information. Since the negotiations between conflicting interests in the cabinet are delicate and not yet entirely completed, it is not possible to give the exact date on which the change will he made, as at present virtually deicded, Goering will become vice-chancellor and chief of police, Von Papen will succed the retiring Von Neurath as For eign Ninister with the Stronglyeven militantly-Catholic Boze as Secretary of State.
The most interesting of the changes now under consideration affects the Ministry of Economies. At present Dr. Schmitt, representative of the large insurance companies, fills this post. Schmitt’s position is, however, extermely unstable. It may be that he will be retained for some time. Significant is that the man most generally considerd as his successor in this higly importan ecomomic post is none other than Baron Kurt von Schroeder.
Barson von Schroedr is a nephew of Bruno Schroeder, senir partner in the london house of J. Henry Schroeder and Company. it was in the house of Baron Kurt von Schroeder in Cologne that on January 4 of last year, approximately a month before Hitler came to power, there was help the now famous conversation between Hitler and Von pagen, in the course of which the details were worked out on the coup by which Von Schleicher, them Chancallor, was ejected form office and Hitler, with the support of the Rhineland in dustrianlist and bankers and the Junkers, ws put into pover.
A Journalist now lecturing under Zionist asupiees, reported months ago in the Toronto Star that a meeting head taken place in a Jewish bankin firm’s office and tha some of the participants had been Jews. As a matter of fact Schroeder is not of Jewish origin. Louis von Hagen, who was reported as one of the participants, was indeed of Jewish origing, bu would have head to leave his tomb in order to join the gathering because at the time the meeting was held, Hagen was no longer among the living.
A physican who learned sterilization in our county has been on of the most ardent agitators for the introduction of these laws into Germany. He is Dr. Boeters of Zwiekau, a ship’s physician who since familiarizing himself with sterillzation as practiced in a number of states hare, has sinece been sedulously working for the introduction of these practices in Germany. He met with great resistance and finally sterilized a number of persons, mostly feebleminded, with the consent of their legal guardiams, on his own responsibility. Thereupon he was disciplijned by the authorities and removed from his positon. The only one who sided with him was a former lawyer of Hamburg, F. Dehnow. The present laws by far exeed the ”lex Zwichau” the law submitted by Boeters to the Reichstag.
