Carroll (lowa) Times Herald, Thursday, Mar. 8, 1945 Hitler Commits Reich To Mass Suicide, Cologne's Tragic Ending Suggests BY LOUIS P. LOCHNER Cologne and other lesser German Cologne, Germany -After the conclusion is inescapable that Reich to national suicide. I' have just completed my first detailed tour of Cologne's downtown section. It was a sorry sight.

Cologne's Wall street, the Unter Sachsenhausen, exists more. The structures of the Reichsbank, Dresdener bank, Diskonto Gesellschaft and other inatitutions are burned out shells. The main post office directly opposite these banks is in far worse condition than the post office in ruined Aachen. The telephone exchange is a kaput (finished)," is the way it was described by Lieutenant Colonel Robbins P. Crowell, AMG telephone specialist.

far worse then Aachen," Crowell added. I stumbled over the bodies of dead Germans as I picked my way through debris along almost unidentifiable streets to the section near gutted St. Gereon's church. It is in this area that the large German insurance companies had their headquarters. Take Heavy Beating The large modern insurance company buildings have taken terrific beatings from the air and none can be used without complete overhauling.

Large quantities of were found within the structures. A woman who emerged from nearby basement explained bitterly: "The gestapo swine intended to blow up all those buildings. What did they care that many of us had been living in the cellars. When the American soldiers came they ran away and never paused to blow the Buildings up." Not even the residents in the western part of Cologne are aware of the full extend of the damage in the "Aldstadt," or old part of the city because of the complete breakdown of transportation facilities in the urban area. Various burghers living on the northwestern fringe of Cologne, for instance, were convinced that three celebrated hotels in the shadow of the ancient cathedral were still livable--namely the Excelsior, the Ewige Lampe and the Dom hotel.

As a matter of fact they are heaps of rubble. The cathedral itself is still standing, but there is no denying It suffered some damage. There are big holes next to the north and south portals of the imposing west facade, though the main portal itself is practically intact. There are several holes in the roof of the transept through which rain streams unretarded, and the structure is at present windowless. Most of the valuable stained glass windows were removed early in the war for safekeeping.

War or no war, however, mass has been said daily in the cathedral by the remaining priests. Dingman, Retired Glidden Druggist, Is Taken by Death Glidden (THNS) George E. Dingman, 75, retired druggist, died suddenly of a heart attack at his home here at 6 p. m. last night.

The body is being returned at 5 this afternoon from Huffman Funeral home in Carroll the family residence, to rest until the time of the rites. Funeral services are to be at 2:30 Friday afternoon at the Methodist church in Glidden, with the Rev. H. H. Proett, officiating.

Burial will be in the Vall cemetery, with the Masonic service there. Mr. Dingman, who was born Aug. 13, 1869, at Stony Creek, had lived in Glidden for 24 years. He had retired from business two years ago.

Surviving with his wife are one daughter, Mrs. R. J. North of Vail, and two sons, Lyle of Chicago and Keith of Ft. Dodge.

Members of the crowd then joined in hooting protests against Morrison's decision to reprieve the dancer and let Hulten die.
