Nazi Girls Welcome Fuehrer

Godesberg, Sept. 22.

Herr Adolf Hitler at the Dressen Hotel here amid enthusiastic cheers today. He wore a brown uniform indicating his political leadership. His facial expression remained sternly set despite the fervent welcome he received.

From an early hour "Hitler Girls" dressed' in white skirts and black blouses had been singing and marching through the streets flooded with brilliant sunshine. Their demonstration was a preliminary greeting to the Fuehrer, who was due to arrive at 11 a.m. for his conference with Mr. Chamberlain.

Barriers were placed around the hotel and strong forces of secret police and the Black Guards were on duty long before Herr Hitler came.—Reuter.
