NEW PLAN OF ACTION He continued that the plan for revolt during the Storm Troops absence was abandoned when It was found that Chancellor Hitler would not co-operate, and direct action was decided on, beginning with an attack against the Gov- ernment and Chancellor Hitler's arrest, so that further action could appear to be under his orders.
Captain Roehm, Herr Ernst, and He denounced the small clothers declared before witnesses que of international intriguers and that the bloodiest prolonged fight apostles of Communism who had was to take place. deliberately tried to produce chaos in Germany?

He said that many of the latter Had fought for the Nazis, but had later failed to realise that their lawless attitude was out of date.
The seriousness of the situation. was first apparent from messages from abroad. British and French newspapers increasingly referred to the Imminent revolution.
Chancellor Hitler decided to pre- vent the ghedding of blood of tens of thousands and to arrest Captain Rochm and others,
He received urgent reports at 1am on June 30 that an attack on the Government buildings was to begin, and the Storm Troops were called out at Munich.
IMMEDIATS ACTION
He realised that he must act like lightning to prevent disaster. Only ruthless and bloody interven- tion could prevent the revolution spreading. It was better that a hundred mutineers and conspira- tors be destroyed than that tens of thousands innocent victims bleed to death.

Chancellor Hitler referred to his reluctance to believe that his re- tationship with Captain Roehm was founded on lles, and to his destre to spare the movement and the shame of the revelation
He described how the Immoral Life of Captain Roehm had spread," Unknown to him, Captain Roelim used as an intermediary a thỏ- roughly corrupt swindler, 10 whom the Chancellor referred as "Herr von A" who had formed a connection with General You Schleicher, who drew up a state- ment. declaring that the present regime could not be continued.
The Army, Navy and all nation- al organisations must be combined under one hand namely, Captain Roehm, while the Vice-Chancellor, Captain von Papen, must be re- moved and replaced by "Herr von A" Chancellor Hitler, remaining, at any rate, temporarily.
