railway train IN Germany there is sign of warning
attention, the enemy is listening"
In every factory, there are signs reading:
"DO not speak with the foreign workers.
These are references to the biggest Trojan
horse that any country has ever had since the days
of ancient Tloy-the 100000 foreign workers in
Germany.
Now that morale the home front is sinking lower
and lower under the impact of military reverses Allied

the civilian population Germans becoming increasingly
fearful of the millions of foreigners in their midst.

But, look here, Germans Do you
really know what it is like to be on
the defensive? Well, we know. We,
the Allies, have been on the defen-
sive. Let us tell you about it.
1t is not good, Germans. 1t means
that you must have enough ma
terials and enough men at every
point, at all times, while we need
have only enough for the points Of
attack. Oh, Germans, how well we
know what it means to be on the
defensive! 1t means that you will
never have enough goods and you
will never have enough men, from
this moment on. The defensive is
hungry strategy, Germans. It
absorbs all the goods and all the
men that you can supply, and then
it cries out ravenously for more.
Weapons Will Rust.
We know We lived through it.
We wrote and read books about it.
One was called Defense Will Not
Win the War" It became a classic
in America.
1t spoke the simple truth taken
from your own generalsD that those
who are on the defensive must
scatter their weapons at 100 points,
where they lie, rusting uselessly,
while those who are on the offensive
need only choose the weakest point
and marshal the most Of their power
there.
Germans! What a strange turn
has taken place in the events OF
this war! You, who proved that
walls are good for nothing, must
now build a wall and hide behind it.
You, who made a joke of the
Maginot, must now hide behind
the Mittelmeer!
You are condemned to adopt the
same strategy that you, yourselves,
have proved to be unsafe.
Adopt Losing Policy
You are forced to play the game
OF the other side, after having COM
pletely demonstrated its disadvan-
tages. Germans! How can an army
fight when it Is compelled to give
up its own. strategic conceptions,
those on which it was built, and to
adopt the strategic conceptions Of
the very armies it has defeated?
When you defeated those armies,
you defeated their ideas. You Ger
mans have talked much of that. You
have made mystic conception of
the offensive; you have made 1t the
military expression of the Nazi po-
litical idea. But can Wotan hide
behind fence, Germans? Can the
lightning lie in a box?
Germans! Your generals try to
comfort you. They tell you that
every town in Europe is a "fort,"
impossible, unconquerable. But,
Germans, that is Polish talk of the
summer of 1885, that is French talk
OF early 1910. Your DR.. Albert Speer,
