New Prussian Secret Police Guard Against Anti-Nazi Plots JUDGE LINDSEY BERLIN, June 6—Hermann Goe- ring, Prussian premier, and right hand man of Adolf Hitler, has started a secret police system in the big state which embraces two- thirds of Germany. In a brief communique to the public he explaine! that the new department would “busy itself with discovering and combatting all plots regarded as dangerous to the state.” In “Equalization” Wave Other sections of the reich are expected to follow the Prussian ex- ample, Goering’s announcement came in the midst of the sweeping “gleich- schajtung,” or “equalization” wave. {This government fostered move- ment was designed to bring into |line with the centralized leader- ship idea of the nazis, every phase of German life. It affected busi- ness, art, agriculture, education, the ‘ehurch, labor and sports. Particu- larly it left no government depart- ment unaffected One of the main factors of the secret police force is that Hermann Goering has complete control over {it.

He snatched two hours sleep at Moscow and then chafed because necessary plane repairs kept him there for nine hours and seventeen minutes. Despite the delay in re- pairing two tears resulting from the ice that formed dur- ing the Atlantic leg, Mattern is ahead of the Post and Gat- ty time. Weather Is Bad Unfavorable weather decided him 18against going by way of Yakutsk in favor of Omsk. Mattéern fixed' rubber bands to the stick from his compass rack allowing sufficlent margin to pro- vide for a slight drift to the right and then crossed his legs with his right foot to put a slight pres- sure on the left rudder which equalized the drift and kept the plane on an even course. Got Cat Naps Mattern explained he got cat naps on the flight over the At- lantic. He encountered headwinds all of the way here from Moscow. Mattern reached Omsk with a 54-minute lead on the Post and Gatty record but lost some ad- vantage as the fliers flew over Omsk without stopping. Post and Gatty flew on to Novosibirsk. Mattern will fly 1,250 miles to Irkutsk and expects to catch up. on the Post-Gatty record. William Strong’s plane, a Fokker amphibian, L. F.
