By the Associated Press. BERLIN, February 22 —Field Mar shal Werner von Blomberg, Nazi min ister of war, placed Germany's newly recreated war machine squarely be hind Fuehrer Adolf Hitler and the ideals of Nazidom today. The war minister, prominently dis playing the gold button of the Nazi party as he spoke at the state opera house yesterday on the memorial day to German World War dead, definitely committed, the army, navy and air force to unswerving allegiance to a Nazi Germany. “The Reich's armed force and the Nazi party are indissolubly bound to gether.” the marshal declared. “One cannot be a good soldier without be ing a good Nazi.” Blomberg's unusual emphasis upon this interrelation was believed to have been prompted by two circum stances: 1. Certain generals are known still to hold that their oath of allegiance j binds them to Hitler personally as commander in chief, but that the [ Nazi party can be a matter of in difference to a soldier. 2.

Before a brilliant gathering of party leaders, army generals and foreign diplomats, Blomberg stressed what he termed Germany's sacred heritage of a will for peace from the 2.000,000 Germans who died in the World War and pleaded: “Avert a recurrence of this catastrophe 1” _ THE WEATHER i District of Columbia — Fair and colder tonight; minimum temperature about 26 degrees; tomorrow partly cloudy; moderate west winds.
