Vienna, To-day.

Herr Hitler started his triumphal entry into Vien- na at 6 o'clock last evening. The entry was de- layed owing to the enthusiastic reception ac corded the Fuehrer along the route from Linz, which he had left seven hours earlier. The last 50 miles to Vienna took Herr Hitler four hours, the Fuehrer having to stand in his car most of the way to return the greetings of the masses along the route. In places the crowd was from 30 to 50 deep.

The police in Vienna thought at one time that Herr Hitler would have to postpone his drive through Vienna, so thick were the crowds, thousands and thousands having flocked into the capital from the country.

Herr Hitler drove to the Hotel Imperial where he has taken up. his residence. Crowds gathered cutside and called for him.

It was announced that Herr Hitler would speak at 11 o'clock this morning (Tuesday), so great was- the clamour for him that the Fuehrer appeared on the bal cony at 7:15 with General son Kraus.

Herr Hitler, in a short speech. declared:

"These last five days have brought the terning point in the history of our Germany. But the entire - German -people-is thinking of the living past in the events you are witnessing.
