question about the early NSDAP

#1

In his proclamation for the Reichsparteitag 1933 Hitler said, that there were three Generalmitgliederversammlungen (General members meetings?) in 1920, 1921 and 1922. These meetings were the first party rallys (Parteitage) of the young NSDAP. In Volz "Daten der NSDAP" I found four General meetings
21. 1.1921: Election of 1. Vorsitzender (Anton Drexler) and 2. Vorsitzender (Oskar Körner)
29.7.1921: außerordentliche Generalmitgliederversammlung (Election of Adolf Hitler for the post of 1. Vorsitzender)
29.-31.1.1922: Parteitag and Generalmitgliederversammlung
27.-29.1.1923: 1. Parteitag in Munich

22.5.1925: Generalmitgliederversammlung in München (Elction of Adolf Hitler for the post of 1. Vorsitzender)

I cannot find a Generalmitgliederversammlung in 1920. Make Hitler in his proclamation a mistake by changing the dates (none in 1920, two in 1921 and one in 1923)? Or was in 1920 a Generalmitgliederversammlung? But why it is not mentioned by Volz?

In mein Volz buch 1939, the only reference more near of this in year 1920, is the Massenversammlung der Partei in February 24, im Festsaal des Hofbrauhauses am Platzl in München.

Hello Helly Angel, I noticed this event too, but I search about the Generalmitgliederversammlung. Was this Massenversammlung on February 24th, 1920, for all people or only for members of the NSDAP. Hitler proclaimed the 25 points of the Parteiprogramm. And remember that there were many communists in the meeting.
In my opinion Hitler made in his proclamation in 1933 a mistake.
