BERLIN, Dec. 20 -- Adolph Hitler, once the demi-god of reactionary extremists, was released on parole from imprisonment at Fortress Landsberg, Bavaria, today and immediately left in an auto for Munich. He looked a much sadder and wiser man today than last Spring when he, with Ludendorff and other radical extremists, appeared before a Munich court charged with conspiracy to overthrow the Government.
His behavior during imprisonment convinced the authorities that, like his political organization, known as the Völkischer, was no longer to be feared.
It is believed he will retire to private life and return to Austria, the country of his birth.
@georgetakei Hitler spent less time in prison for the Beer Hall Putsch than EV Debs spent in prison for speaking against WWI. Debs also spent more time in prison for that than USAmerica spent fighting WWI.
