than the whole of the babbling at
the palace Of the League Of Ma
tions in Geneva"
To return to the present speech.
Herr hitler asks further on with
reference to his proposals for a
settlement:
Il do not know in what state
of mind the Polish government
could have been to reject such
proposals"
The answer is that the Polish
government had before their eyes
the shameful betrayal of the
solemn assurances given by the
German government at Munich.
They know that these demands
were only the preliminary to fur
ther exactions.
II Herr Hitler had wished to
inspire confidence in his word he
should have been less reckless
with his earlier promises.
Germany has no further ter
ritorial ambitions in Europe" was
an undertaking which had been
broken too flagrantly and too
often. The tale of Herr Hitler's
broken promises is so long that
he can scarcely expect Great Brit
ain to believe that German aspi-
rations are limited and that Ger
many has no further aspirations
in the west.
And now compare what Herr
Hitler tells us of Russia with
what he told us when twas Herr
Won Ribbentrop's mission to per- +,
suade Great Britain of the Rus J
sian peril.
This Is what he says now:
1--WE have found that it Is in
the best interests Of both our ma
tions to have an understanding
with each other. Thus the Brit
ish assertion OF the unlimited
world political aspirations Of Ger
many is finally contradicted. We
shall never again fight a war in
the interests of the Western de-
mocracies. Make note Of that,
my English gentlemen"
Described Bolshevism
As "Intolerable Danger"
This is what he said then Tin
the Reichstag on January 80,
1880: "Bolshevism is the doc
trine of world revolution, of
world destruction. ''' AS far as
Germany is concerned I do not
want to leave any doubt as to
the following:
Il. We look upon bolshevism as
upon an intolerable danger to
the world.
%. We shall try and keep this
danger away from the German
volk (people) by every means at
our command.
"3. We are, therefore, endeavor-
ing to make the German volk as
immune as possible from this
contagion.
For this 1t is necessary that
we should avoid all close contacts
with the bearers of these poison
Gus baccilli. - request the
German workers to avoid all
contacts and relations with these
international parasites and con-
sequently it will never occur that
one will see me dining and win
ing with them. Furthermore, any
treaty links between Germany
and present-day bolshevist Rus
sia would be without any value
whatsoever"
"Emphatically Rejects"
Link With Destroyers.
Again at the Nuernburg party
rally on the September IA, 1887:
II reject most emphatically to be
joined up with those whose pro-
gram is the destruction of Eu-
rope and who do not even try to
conceal this program. To refuse to
collaborate with such elements
Goes not mean to isolate ones
self but to secure ones self"
Again, in the Reichstag on Feb
ruary 20, 1898:
There Is only one state with
which we have never sought close
relationships and with which we
do not want to have any close
relationships. mean Soviet Rus
sia.
I'VE must look upon bolshevism
as upon the incarnation Of the
destructive qualities of human
nature, and we do so even more
than ever before"
There Is no question of Great
Britain waging war, as Herr Hit
Ter declares, on German women
and children.
The German government have
already declared that there are
ample stocks Of food in Germany,
but the restriction Of the import
of raw materials is not q measure
of which the German govern
ment can legitimately complain
Finally, Herr Hitler's account
of the circumstances attending
the outbreak Of war Is q travesty
Of the facts.
He was determined on war and
hoped to the last that Great
Britain would not fulfill hef
treaty obligations to Poland.
It was only two days after the
invasion Of Poland, when no reply
had been received to the British
communication, that an ultima
tum was addressed to the German
government.
