While there has been a increase in the Price of this is one of a series of articles on present Day Germany by Grant Dexter free press staff correspondent in London who visited Berlin to obtain first hand knowledge of prevailing economic social and political conditions in Seething Nai and. By Grant Dexter april 16. Established that the jews communists and the parliamentary system of government Are the greatest enemies of the German people Hitler finds it easy to explain Germany s defeats and failures. Allies did not win Germany lost the War the allies did not win it. Germany lost because the jews and the communists undermined the character of the people on the Home front. Germany was foot after the War because she was betrayed by the parliamentary the tool of the jews. It is important to note that the army goes part Way with Hitler in this theory. The army believes that Germany lost the War. The strategy of the higher command it is now claimed was at fault. A few of the Field officers made slips but these were of lesser importance 1 strategy erred in not launching the Campaign of fright ulness in 1914 instead of 1917. The bombing and gassing of populations and the destruction of enemy shipping to Boais should have been carried out at the earliest pos sible moment. It is now believed that by these Means England could have been brought to her Knees too on the Western front is Germany should have held her Wetter Aspland sought economic Relief by the South and east., the major end skin one which is j not Likely to be repeated. of the German " Arnt Ylst it to the German general staff in these v blow is prepared future warfare should at instant demolition of the foe. Long drawn out conflicts should be avoided at All costs. Tomorrow s strategy must hurl overwhelming forces at the first moment of Impact. The effect of Surprise must be paralysing so that our opponent cannot organize his defence at All. Military supremacy must be ensured and remain proof against All humane pleas. One thing alone May delay the stroke the risk or fear of this is the sort of opinion today that is acting As the Brake on the wheel. Scores bloodless defeat against the theories of government which Hitler condemns he advances the Brand of which he is the socialism or True responsible government. There is he. Argues no real responsibility in a system elementary my dear Watson canned goods this Type Small some of Mer Chandise is about the same Price As a year ago. Chickens seem to be about one cent dearer. Fresh tomatoes spinach and celery aver age about a cent a to find cheaper this year. There has been Uhle change in the Price of standardized package goods. I Bover Urene beaten blood Lessly which elects a government to shoulder the mistakes of its predecessors and As Likely As not tangs the original bungles Back into Power m course of time. To Hitler s mind responsible True democracy nets that a single accepts responsibility for tie state his life is forfeit. Hitler himself declares that a penalty of crucifixion would not be Only when the nation s Leader has pledged his All can responsibility in the real sense be said to exist j in return for accepting this test the Leader must have Complete Power Over the nation he must be supreme Over the minds and bodies of the people. Hitler with the help of the army and the business men sold his theory to the German people in 1933 since when he has been the Dic Tator nominally or actually who can of the nation. He took office m a democratic Way. He was Power by a duly elected Reich Stag Complete control of the state was vested blindly in him by the same body. Must vote right subsequent and plebiscites have been held but these have been Shams. No one would dream of standing against a nazi candidate. Every electoral District is so thoroughly canvassed by nazi agents that it is equally inadvisable to cast a ballot against the official candidate or policy. In return for Power Hitler is under Promise to the German people to make Good his theory of race supremacy. Every action has been taken with this end in View. Practically All Freedom has Dis appeared because Freedom mean i the right to differ to express opinions. The germans have been stripped of Freedom for much the same reason As an athlete throws off a coat. It is believed unanimity Means More striking Power increased efficiency. Intolerant of god the jews have been ruthlessly persecuted. So have the communists and the democrats. Hitler demands Complete sacrifice of All individuality on the part of his subjects. Within the past year and despite the most solemn pledges Given before his accession to Power Hitler has become intolerant of god himself. Apparently there is no room in t Germany today for any god save the nazi got. I this Conquest of the German people has been justified by the use of a simple formula. Whatever has stood in the Way has been identified As representative of the jews of Cornoni Tunis or Jot democracy. Newspapers for taken Over because the scoundrels running them were the hirelings of the jews. Christianity is Bong persecutes a product i of the hated race and morale of a people. It is believed that under conditions of the War a Christian nation will be the first to crack. A new German religion is being invented which being based on blood and , is calculated to enhance the staying Power of the civilian population. Gen. Ludendorff s Neo paganism has Only recently been recognized by the nazi chiefs it is True that some semblance Oit democracy still remains. The Reich Stag still exists and meets once a year to hear an oration from Hitler. Mem Bers Are paid per annul. They applaud ecstatically Are described As the most male chorus in the world. Must keep Alvih so Long As the local Supply of jews communists and democrats holds out so Long As there remains any magic in the Appeal against a Devilish mysterious International ring of jews so Long As Loutish inefficient parliaments exist in other countries offering every encouragement to com so Long May Hitler have an Alibi for anything that goes amiss. Up to Date the Alibi has worked perfectly and apparently the germans think they Are advancing rapidly in the desired direction. If further alibis Are required the recent claim that Hitler will have no. Trouble finding them. As stated All acts of oppression Are justified As measures to liberate this matchless aryan racer each one is presumed to bring h the objective nearer to hitlers out stretched hand. Cur his next article or. Dexter tells How the Church to Hitler it seems to be quite obvious that the gentleman in the picture is very elated. Money in one hand and a newspaper in the other.
