Official quarters warned, how- mr, against assuming "anything ensntional" was afoot.

Ponder Moves

Behind him in Berlin. Hitler

left diplomats considering the slg- l,

nlilcsnce of Friday's cabinet makeup. The first formal indi- cation was not expected until the Relchstog meets Feb. 20. The German Parliament has frequent- ly been the sounding board Hitler uses to make his most dramatic and important pronouncements.

There were widely differing opinions on what the next step would be. ‘

At one extreme was the fear

that Hitler-with power concen- trated in his own hands—wa.s about to launch Germany on a career oi conquests rivalllng those of her allies. Italy in Africa. and horn in Asia.

At the other extreme were those who saw the shakeup as the first itap toward abandonment by 111t- ier oi the Home-Berlin nxis in favor of reconciliation with France and Great Britain. in this version Hitler plays the role of Europe's prodigal son, receiving as his fat-

ted calf the return of war-lost colonies. Scornful laughter is the Nazi

reaction lo both of these inter- Drttaiiona.

Policy Unchanged

Oovemment spokesmen empha- elled Hitler had "repeatedly and clearly" pointed out the trend oi Gennanvs foreign policy. They said Hitler's "policy of peace" was not changed by last week's shake-

dip-even though it put the army in Hitler's hands. changed Foreign Ministers and recalled ambassa- dors from such strategic pesto as Rome and Tokyo.

Sir Edward Beatty of Montreal, President of the Canadian General Council, introduced Lord Ttveeds- mulr.

The Governor-General pictured the growth of the Scout movement in ‘he 30 years since its organiza- tion by Lord Baden-Powell. There was a miracle in its spread over ‘the whole earth with a. member. ship of hudrerls of thousands of every race and nation.

"Suppose you hod been told that in its ranks there would be n0 distinctions of race or religion," he said. “that its creed would be based upon profound moral truths. that. its fundamental principles would be peace among men, and the .=€i'vi"e of our inflows; that; great international gatherings would b: held periodically, where scouts from all over the world would meet and froicrnize. I think you would have said that. if such a mirade came about, then our civilization vvottLl be secure nnd there would be no more strife among men."

u But other things had happened.
