“Stinnes died in Berlin as a result of a gall bladder operation.” I wonder had Hugo Stinnes survived this operation if Hitler would ever have come to power.. Stinnes was a massive political force in Germany, a sort of German version of William Randolph Hearst. He died at the age of 54 in 1924. His eldest son Edmund Stinnes fled to the US and helped jewish refugees escape NAZI Germany. Hugo Stinnes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
