HE "Telegraph" to-day publishes one of the most un- usual interviews ever given to a newspaper by the head of a nation.
It was granted by Herr Hitler to Miss Inga Arvad, brilliant young Danish journalist and film star.
In it the Fuhrer freely reveals his inner thoughts and his dreams, tells of his aspirations for his people, discloses some of the plans-made in his youth-which are now being carried out, and gives a hint of ambitions he has had to suppress.

Before I could look round further Miller opened the door and came towards me with quick, light steps, his shoulders straight, his bearing upright. He wore his usual brown uniform.
I found him eager to talk and to answer any question I put forward. He discussed the Olympic Games. Apparently he was dissatisfied with the organisation.

Probably he is constipated... he needs a laxative. But be sure to give him a laxative suited to a child's sensitive system. Give him. Castoria-the laxative made especially for children from babyhood to eleven years.
In 5,000,000 American homes Castoria is the standby when a child is out of sorts. Mothers depend upon it because it is thorough and gentle...will never cause griping pain or upset stomach like some of the harsh adult laxatives.
And children love Castoria's pleasant taste. They take it gladly.
