"Lord & Master"

Figuring that some stronger man must be behind a leader who looks like Adolf Hitler, groping feature writers have for months been serving up Steel Tycoon Fritz Thyssen (pronounced Tissen) as the shrewd Maecenas who "bought" the Nazis when they were poor, the Master Mind of National Socialism.

Just how Herr Thyssen could retain his purchased grip, once the Nazis had all Germany at their mercy, few gropers have tried to explain. Great was their perturbation last week as Tycoon Thyssen popped up at Buenos Aires, 5,900 miles from Berlin.

The whole Thyssen legend trembled. Eminent Groper Johannes Steel, author of The Second World War and dopester on Nazidom for Manhattan's Post, clarioned: "Fritz Thyssen is taking his money out of Germany. Thyssen, Germany's lord and master, has no confidence any more in Germany. . . . The exact amount of the capital which he managed to get out of Germany is not known, but it is certain to be no small sum, for several new Thyssen holding companies in South America are being formed."

Lord & Master Thyssen, with his wife and daughter, meanwhile faced Brazilian reporters in his suite aboard the German liner Caparcona. "I have relatives in Argentina and I am sailing on to see them" said he. "I need a rest. Reports that I left Germany because I feared an outbreak of violence are absolutely without foundation. I need a vacation as much as anyone else."
