Receives Honorary Citizenship F r o m F_ree City Of Dang, zlg.

BERLIN, April 20-Ohancellor Hitler, in a display of armed might obviously intended to im- press tide world with the iastnex of German preparedness, today‘ celebrated his 50th birthday urith the greatest military parade in Berlin's history.

For 4 1-2 hours the clatter of engines of destruction, the tramp of 40,000 soldiers and the roar of squadrons of warplanes dinnecl into the ears of several hundred ‘li- Nozis said the throngs which lined the three- mile route along the "Avenue of Splendor", Bea-limb new boulevard 1mm the old Imperial Castle to the Technology School, eloceed -‘ 1,000.000.

The Fuehrer was visibly stirred

q by the acclamatlon of the crowds“

as he stood with arm upralsed in Nazi salute to review the great parade. Honorary Citizenship

One of the host of gifts that arrived in tribute to the Great War corporal who became “Aug- mcnicr ori’ the ReiolW-builder of Greater Germany-was an honor- ary citizenship in the Free City of Danzlg,

(Hitler has increased Germany's area and population by about one-fourth in the past 14 months —i‘rorn 61,000,000 inhabitants to

871100.000 and- Jrmn . 300.000 square.»

miles in .000.)

Hitler received the Danzig hon- orary cietizenshi. from Albert libertster, Nazi istrict leader o! tho once-German Free City, short- ly before the parade began. Rum- ors for days had said the Fuehrer would receive not only citizenship but Danzig itself as a. birthday tribute but he celebrated his mile- stone without adding more terri-

flint to Nature

With the honorary citizenship, however, Foerster made an allus- ion that mig-ht be eted as expressing wihat g Nazis have in mind. He brought Hitler ldings of the Baltic seaport in which Poland has a vital interest and said:-

"In the last few" years, from all points of view, you have done isolated Danzlg Germans so much good that it lo has been our most fervent desre to give you ression of our thank- fulness. y the time has arriv- ed, my Fuehrerr, when we are able to ve you this thanks before the entire world."

Hitler. in reply, so far as was made public, merely thanked Foerster and asked him. to trans- mit expressions 0d his gratitude and greetings to the people of Danzig.

As widely remarked as was the display of several new anti-air- craft guns was the presence for the first time at a Hitler birthday celebration of the Papal Nuncio, Monsignor Cesare Orsenigo. As
