OF Germany and would be achieved
within the next four years. Said the
chancellor:
1T is regrettable that the rest of
the world fails to understand the ma
ture and greatness of our task. If
a certain British politician declares
Germany needs no colonies as she
may buy her raw materials, then
this remark is about as bright as
that of the Bourbon princess who,
when she saw a mob crying for
bread, wondered why-if the people
had no bread-they did not eat cake.
IF Germany had not, for fifteen
years, been squeezed dry and cheat
ed of her entire international saw
ings; if she had not lost her entire
foreign holdings; if. above all. she
still possessed her colonies, we
could much more easily master the
difficulties.
Then, addressing the convention
directly, the fuehrer launched new
campaign against bolshevism and
the Jews.
"BolShevism seeks to ex;erminate
governments based on a community
of race and blood and replace them
by non-Aryan Jewish element of no
race" Hitler, warned. "Sooner or
later sovietistic authority states will
end in anarchy, since Jewish ele-
ments possess only despotic facul-
ties, never organizing reconstruc-
tive ones.
The rock of foundation of the
state is an authoritarian will. Un-
limited individual liberty leads to
anarchy. All states have expert
enced the destructive effects of de-
mocracy."
