The arrival here, Saturday morning, of Norman H. Davis, as special representative of President Roosevelt, is awaited by the Nazis and Jews with mingled feelings.
Mr. Davis will be the first foreign representative, outside of regularly assigned envoys, to be received by Chancellor Hitler. It is believed on good authority that one of Mr. Davis’s duties, official or unofficial, will be to obtain a true picture of the situation, whether that picture confirms or negates Nazi propaganda.
The effect of his final report to President Roosevelt on world opinion of Germany must be left to conjecture.
