Erica, thank you for this important information.
I'll take a search on my shelves for this issue

present it here.

I found the source, and please if you have The 
Theosophist of May,
1936 and you find the article of Hodson could you 
kindly send me a
copy of it. In the T.S. here I could not find this 
issue.

"In Germany, soon after Hitler seized power, the 
liberal political
parties became illegal. So did Theosophy, four 
years later. In the
meantime, The Theosophist monthly had published 
Jinarajadasa's
denunciation of persecution of Jews; but also 
praise by the 1934-
1945 President George Arundale of Hitler; and an 
enthusiastic
paranormal description by `A non-German 
theosophist' [G. Hodson?] of
the `purity' of the Führer's beautiful aura.13)"

13) The Theosophist, May 1936, 242. Nazi 
propaganda posters also
often depicted Hitler with an aura around his 
head; Albrecht W.
Thöne, Das Licht der Arier. Licht-, Feuer- und 
Dunkelsymbolik des
Nationalsozialismus. München: Minerva, 1979, 35.
