Herr von Ribbentrop Brings in Party Adherents Berlin, Feb. 28.
The foreign policy bureau of the National Socialist Party will be maintained and will be directed by Herr Joachim von Ribbentrop, the Foreign Minister, it has been decided here, a Havas correspondent reports.
This office is composed of nearly 150 employees and officials who are tHe fringes of the Foreign Ministry. The duality is explained by the pecial position of Nazi organisms in the German state and by the conception of Herr Adolf Hitler of the future methods of a diplomacy adapted to the masses.
Herr Hitler and other leaders of the Nazi Party believe that the traditional diplomacy is addressed to obsolete social classes and think that they can initiate a complete revision of diplomatic methods.
Several officials of the office of Herr von Ribbentrop will pass on to the Wilhelmstrasse where they will introduce their new methods.
This apparent duality in the foreign policy is also found in all large German administrative departments, which are duplicated by Party organism. The present tendency in the Reich is to concentrate the leadership of the traditional Ministry and the corresponding Party organization in the hands of one man who is absolutely devoted to the Party.—Havas.
