PRESS IN GERMANY
Freedom Not Abolished, Says Goebbels HITLER’S EUROPEAN AIM By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. (Received May 20, 9.35 p.m.) Leipzig, May 20. Dr. Goebbels, Minister for Propaganda, addressing a jurists’ congress, protested against foreign criticism of German policy toward the Press. "Germany has not abolished freedom of the Press but Press anarchy,” he said. “What is called freedom of the Press in liberal countries is in reality the worst kind of intellectual tyranny because it is exercised anonymously.” Herr Hitler preferred the “higher law his nation” to the Versailles Treaty which was “lawless in its origin.” Nazis would not only rebuild Germany but would give suffering Europe new life. He added: “Our aim is to place Europe on a better legal basis compatible with the life of all nations."
