INCIDENT ENDED.
Grave of Hitler’s Parents. Press Association —Copyright. Berlin, April 9. The incident concerning the placing of a wreath on the grave of Herr Hitler's parents by a retired Austrian railwayman, Reinhold Brueckner, and bis wife, has ended in an anti-climax. Germany was annoyed at the fine of £3 imposed by the Austrian Government, but German newspapers have apologetically published an admission that there has been a misunderstanding . It was explained that Brueckner, who has been pardoned, was punished because without being authorised he attached a ribbon to the wreath stating that it came from the whole local community. It is stated that the Austrian Government does not intend to restrict visits to the grave.
