Unity Czeched

Blonde, brassy the Hon. Unity Valkyrie Freeman-Mitford, ardent admirer of Fuehrer Adolf Hitler, and 23-year-old daughter of England's pro-German insurance tycoon Lord Redesdale, has a failing for flaunting her swastika pin where it causes trouble. Two months ago she boldly barged into a Hyde Park meeting for supporters of Leftist Spain wearing her badge, had to be rescued by London bobbies. Last week she incensed the Czechs by strolling the streets of Prague, swastika in her lapel. Display of the Nazi badge is forbidden. Anxious Prague police asked the British Legation to induce Unity to keep her badge out of sight "for her own safety."

Next morning, motoring to Germany with William F. Rueff, U. S. art student resident in Munich, a young British journalist and a Sudeten German deputy in the Czech Parliament, Unity's car was brought to a halt by military police in a military area.

"A policeman, rather insolent, opened my boxes and dropped things on the road. I was not wearing my swastika. He snatched a photograph of Hitler from my arm, broke the back of the picture, then took us to the police station where officials from Prague examined me and my belongings. I was furious when they seized Hitler's portrait. Apparently they suspected me of propaganda work. A woman detective stripped me and even took off my stockings," was the Hon. Unity's story afterwards.

Czech police confiscated her three cameras, films, and a book of German poetry, and five hours later allowed the earful to continue on to Germany.

Long a friend of Adolf Hitler, troublesome Unity recently announced she would become a naturalized German citizen. She was hoarse-voiced cheering the Fuehrer's entry to Vienna. She and her blonde, pro-German elder sister, the former Mrs. Bryan W. Guinness, few months ago were toasted by Field Marshal Goring as "with Frau Goring the most perfect Aryan women I have ever seen."
