Nazi Brides

Privates in the German Army now have to salute officers in the Nazi Storm Troops, mostly small-time politicians. Little by little Chancellor Hitler is trying to Nazify the Army and win its idolized leader General Werner von Blomberg away from his stanch loyalty to President von Hindenburg, his aloof attitude toward politics. Last week General von Blomberg as Reichswehr (Army) Minister issued an order which warmed Nazi cockles, a definitely anti-Semitic order. "In future any member of the Reichswehr desirous of marrying," he decreed, "must submit evidence that his proposed bride is Aryan that none of her four grandparents was Jewish]. Further she must be respectable. She must be not disaffected toward the present German State and she must be of a family measuring up to like requirements." This order, Nazis exulted, means that though the Reichswehr may continue to remain for a time aloof from politics, its bachelor members will be obliged to take only Nazi brides.
