STRAINED RELATIONS

HITLER AND VON PAPER DIFFERENCES HOT VET ADJUSTED Pres* Association—By Telegraph—Copyright BERLIN, Jiine 20. (Received June 21, at noon.) A lively conversation to-day between Herr Hitler and Herr Von Papen failed to clear the somewhat tense situation created by Herr Von Papen’s speech. It is believed that the conflict is too acute to settle directly; consequently Herr Hitler and Herr Von Papen will shortly visit President Hindenburg at his country home. Herr Hitler has not concealed his strong annoyance at Herr Von Papen’s act. Apparently Herr Von Papen is not impressed, he having deliberately intended to create a stir by criticising what be and others regard as the present system’s shortcomings. It is understood that Herr Hitler agreed with some of Herr Von Papen’s utterances, though he disagreed with the method of expression and the circumstances in which they were enunciated. Action could not be taken against Herr Von Papen, because President Hindenburg saw the text of the speech beforehand and telegraphed to Herr Von Papen his congratulations afterwards.—London ‘ Times ’ Cable. VON PAPEN’S SPEECH PRINTED IN PAMPHLET FORM. BERLIN, June 20. (Received June 21. at 1.50 p.m.) The full test of Herr Von Papen’s speech is printed by the publishers of ‘ Germania,’ the Roman Catholic paper with which Herr Von Papen is associated, in pamphlet form. In addition to the declarations made on June 19, he also declared: “Great men are not made by propaganda, but grow through their deeds. The belief that a nation could be united by terror should be rejected.”-
