PERFIDIOUS GAME
GERMAN INDUSTRIALIST ON HITLER CONTRIBUTION TO NAZIS ADMITTED. HOPED FOR REINTRODUCTION OF MONARCHY. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) NEW YORK. August 14. Writing in the magazine “Liberty,” Fritz Thyssen, the exiled German steel magnate, said: "It is now clear that Hitler played a ferfldious .game. I thought he would merely provide a transition stage for the reintroduction of the monarchy, but Germany has now become a sort of Gauleiters’ Club.” The United Press says Thyssen was duped into believing that the Nazis would end the economic anarchy in Germany. His idea of a stable industrial system was a “corporative business” constitution with capital, la’bour and the Government closely collaborating—a happy medium between outright Government control J and unregulated free enterprise. He I believed the Nazis offered such a ’ middle way. Thyssen admits having given the Nazis a million marks and estimates that German industry’s contribution at 2 000,000 marks yearly. Thyssen opposed war. declaring it would make Germany dependent on Russia for raw materials, thus forcing her to forego her position as a world Power.
