HERR HITLER

NAZI PHILOSOPHY EXPOUNDED DESIRE TO KEEP RACE PURE Press Association —By Telegraph—Copyright. BERLIN, January 30. (Received January 31, at 2 p.m.) Herr Hitler bitterly attacked the party bickerings following the establishment of the republic, adding that the bourgeois democracy and Marxist internationalism produced Cabinets which squandered the nation’s economic and political capital. Heroes were despised, cowards extolled, honest men punished, and the lazy rewarded. Herr Hitler added that humanity had now entered on a timely search for ideas producing a new philosophy of life. The terrors of war, with millions of victims, must not recur. “ The Nazi conception,’’ he said, “ does not mean that wo have disrespect for others, but that we want to keep our own race pure.” Herr Hitler paid a tribute to Italy. Ho said that Signor Mussolini had warned M. Stalin that Germany would not tolerate Communism any more than Russia tolerated Nazism, and be declared that Germany congratulated Marshal Pilsudski (Poland) on his broad-mindedness. Though Germany had left the League she was willing to help to bring happiness to all peoples.

BRITISH PRESS COMMENT LONDON, January 31. Herr Hitler’s speech is regarded in some quarters as the opening of a new chapter in international politics. The ‘Daily Telegraph’ says: “A statesman must be an arch dissimulator indeed if he speak thus yet be a Machiavelli at heart. It is far more reasonable to suppose him to be sincere.” The ‘Daily Herald’ says: “There are many who will say that the speech is eyewash, but if his words are rejected as valueless, then a situation pregnant with war will be created.”
