(CP)
Rel'hsfuehrer
Adolf
Hitler
speaking
at
a
spec'cl
session
of
the
Reichstag
declared
that
Memel
had
been
stolen
from
Germany
and
that
the
Leag-.ie
of
Nations
had
legalized
the
theft.
He
laun
ched
a
bitter
attack
upon

The

claimed
that

wers
being
unlaw
fully
disfranchised
In
an

which
is

on

He
Issued
a

that

unless

revise
their
attitude
and
protect
the

of

Speaking
of

affairs
In

of
the-
present
European
situation,
Hitler
reiterated
Ger
many
s
"unshakeable
love
for

and
declared
amid
cheen
that
Germany
did
not
intend
to
concern
herseu
lr
matters
tnat
were
none
of
her
business.
The
policy
of
this
country
as
far
as
the
Italo-Ethloplan
dispute
was
con
cerned
would
be
one
of
hands
off
and
he
did
not
intend
to
have
any
thing
to
do
with
this
dispute.
Germany
had
no
intention
of
provoking
a
conflict
with
Russia.
