BRINGING UP FATHER GGIE- You Realmleader Hitler has issued a decree naming Joseph Buer- ckel “federal commissioner for the reunion of Austria with the German Reich.” Buerckel, an- swerable only to Hitler in his new job, has until May 1, 1939, to execute the govenmental, eco- nomic and cultural reunion of Austria with Germany. Here is a personality sketch of Aus- tria’s “dictator for awhile.” By AP FEATURE SERVICE Joseph Buerckel’s claim to his new job at Hitler's clean-up man in Ausiria is as simple as this: On March 11 Germany seized Austria. On April 10 all good Nazis in both countries voted approval of the coup. Total vote: 99.08 per- cent. Vote in Austria itself: 99.75 percent. Joseph Buerckel managed the campaign in Austria. When it comes to getting out th vote for his chief, Buerckel far excels even America’s James A Farley. Three years before the retur frem Austria came in, he had den onstrated his prowess as a vote getter for Hitler by bringing in a thumping majority in the Saar plebiscite. In the face of stron: anti-Nazi, pro-French and pro League of Nations agitation. he produced a 90.5 percent majorit for the Saar’s return to the Reich Before that the rich Saar district had been under League of Nations rule for 15 years. Once Taught Scheol Now hefty, determined-looking Buerckel is virtual dictator of Anus- tria as federal commissioner’ for the reunion of that ('Olln"y'\vllh the Reich. | Thus he stands above even+ Ar-| thur Seyss-Inquart, who edged out independent Austria’s Chancellor Schuschnigg as a prelude to an- schluss and became governor of the German province of Austria under Hitler.
