For Forming Cabinet: President “Of Germany, However, Attaches Re- quest On Certain Politi- cal Conditions (By Associated Press) BERLIN, Nov. 21.—Adolf Hitler, who has been cam- paigning nine years to head the German government finally received a mandate to form a cabinet today.

Mrs, the advisory board of ‘the State Council or Unemployment Relief, headed by Governor Doyle Carl- ton. Asked about future allot- | ments of money for work in Mon- toe county, Mrs. Love said that while she could not say anything about that phase of the situa- tion, she knew that the state coun- cil sympathized with Monroe coun- ty and the conditions extant here, due partly to her isolation from the rest of the state and the fact that most of her industries have heen paralyzed. Mrs. Love and her associates were outgoing passengers over the ‘East Coast Saturday afternoon.
