SMOULDERING RESENTMENT AMONG THE STORM TROOPERS FOLLOWING THE SUM- MARY EXECUTION OF THEIR LEADERS HAS NOT SHOWN ANY DEFINITE SIGN YET OF FLAMING UP INTO ACTIVE REVOLT AGAINST HITLER, WHO IS DENOUNCED AS A TRAITOR TO THE NAZIS. THERE IS HOWEVER CLEAR INDICATION OF A VIOLENT, SWING TO THE LEFT AND HOSTILITY TO THE LEADER.. The whole of the country is seething with disquiet. Rumours are thick. It is openly stated that scores have been shot in addition to the forty-six admitted executions...

A grim belief exceeds that many old scores have been paid off under cover of the chaos provided by the developments.
