Bormann Notes Reveal
Polish Slavery Plan
By the Associated Press,


NUREMBERG, Feb. 9.-Hitherto
secret notes of Martin Bormann re-
vealed today that Adolf Hitler
abandoned plans for the complete
determination of the Polish people
in 1910, in order to make the Poles
permanent slaves of his Nazi mas
ter race"
The notes, submitted to the In
ternatlonal Military Tribunal by
Soviet prosecutors, were made at a
conference between Hitler and Bor-
mann October 2, 1910, at which
Hitler was represented as saying
that there should be one master
for the Poles-the German. /.
Therefore, all representatives of the
Polish intelligensia are to be exter-
minated"
Bormann, Hitler's missing deputy,
who is being tried in absentia. wrote
that the Fuehrer specified Poland
should be treated like a large labor
camp.
Poles must never be raised
to higher level for they will then
become Anarchists and Commu-
nlsts," the notes said.
Hitler planned as early as 1892
six years before he gave bland as
surances OF Nazi regard for Czecho-
slovakia's sovereignty-to COLOMBO
the Czecho-Moravian basin with
Germans and deport Czechs to Rus
sla, the official Czech government
report of war crimes said.
Rudolph Hess, who was removed
from the courtroom yesterday SUI

turned to court TODAY.

also well adapted to the use Of sub
stitute materials.
This program for factory fabrica-
ton contemplates the development
OF permanent homes which will
meet accepted standards. -
POSTPONEMENT OF DEFER
RABLE AND NON ESSENTIAL
CONSTRUCTION.
1t will be impossible to achieve
our housing goal for the year 1916
without diverting critical materials
and manpower from deferrable and
non-essential construction, both
public and private. ., The de-
termination of what constitutes es-
sential and non-deferrable construc-
ton must be made in terms of well
defined standards and administered
on a decentralized basis with the
advice of local communities. Ap-
peals from decisions made locally
will be reviewed In Washington.
HOMES WHICH VETERANS CAN
AFFORD.
Recent surveys conducted by the
War Department at separation CEN
tiers reveal that most veterans expect
to be able to pay less than $50
monthly for the rental or purchase
of home. A large proportion of
these veterans plan to rent rather
than purchase homes.
This makes it clear that while
there are definite advantages in re-
tanning the present price ceiling of
$4,000 (and rental ceiling of 500 on
new construction, the largest part
of residential building materials
must be channeled, through pri-
critics and ALLEGATIONS, into homes
selling for $4,000 or less including
land, or renting for not more than
$50 per month.
THE DANGER OF INITIATION.
An infiationary spiral would be
fatal to the housing program. BY
creating uncertainties it would i'm
pede production and lead to inven-
tory boarding and speculation. 1t
would result in such high prices on
homes as to put them completely out
Of reach of veterans incomes.
Prices of building materials have
already risen IS to so per cent above
prewar levels. We cannot afford
any further rise. g"
COMMUNITY ACTION.
No program of this magnitude can
be directed from Washington alone.
We are going to need the advice and
active participation of courageous
community leaders in cities and
towns throughout the country.
During the past few weeks I have
had several meetings with repre-
sentative mayors and governors,
many of whom already have we'll
developed programs of local action.
Together we nave mapped out uni
form plans for further activity to
tie in with the veterans emergency
housing program.
Mr.. President, you asked me to
prepare bold and realistic plan to
meet the pressing housing needs OF
our veterans.
This is that kind of plan. 1t is
attainable.
This is a plan to meet an emer-
gency which has grown out of the
war just as surely as did our need
for $4,000 aircraft in 1912. I believe
the Americans will face this task ir
the same spirit in which they facec
the fighting part of the war.
believe that the veterans will gel
their homes.
