INEXPENSIVE SATISFYING

THE CHINA MAIL, MARCH 2, 1940

HITLER'S SISTER WAS MY BOSS!

I was broke. Flat broke.

The year was 1921, and the place was Vienna.

When you are hungry, the quickest way to feel better is to work in, 'near, or around food.. Whether you

cook it, serve it, or

wash it up, inatters little.

The point is that you can get hold of it, either before, or after the cus- tomers have done with it. I started as a coffee waiter, and from "dealing them off the arm,” I graduated to third cook in the canteen of the Mensa Academica Judaica.

Frau Fleischmann was my boss-a great, fat, genial barrel of a woman who looked to me like Enemy No. 1 of Hunger and Starvation. She was literally the head cook and bottle- washer of a vast soup kitchen that fed countless Viennese Jews before the Brown horror swept them from the streets.

This astonishing story by Franz Lukas, who afterwards became editor of the Vienna dally paper "Der Abend," reveals for the first time how Hitler's own sister worked for the Jews and even organised them against the Na- zis.

And it was Frau Fleischmann. The canteen committee threw her out.

Thousands of applicants applied for her job. They weeded them out, un-Raubal, she til there was one left.

HER NAME WAS FRAU ANGELA RAUBAL-THE SISTER OF HERR ADOLF HITLER, AND OUR NEW KOSHER COOK.

She was a' förmidable woman, mus- cular to look at and domineering by nature.

Her face resembles that of her brother, and there is no mistaking the Hitler eyes and nose that became so famous later on. The sister of the greatest anti-Semite the world has ever known was employed by Jews to cook food and wash dishes for Jews.

And she enjoyed every moment of

it.

She lacked the food up, and when they attempted to overturn the boil- ers, she made sure that they were too hot to handle.

As the attacks. increased in vio- lence, Hitler's sister's annoyance at the destruction and, disorder in her kit- chen, developed from irritation to anger.

She was houseproud, and these Nazi hoodlums who looted for the sheer lust of it, became objects of her hatred and contempt.

She began to organise against them. Instead of standing aside watching the destruction, she determined to re- sist.
