OVERSEAS GERMANS
SMALL NUMBER AT CONGRESS NAZI LEADERS’ THREAT. LOYAL ADHERENCE WANTED. (United Press Association.—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.) Received August 29, 10.40 a.m. LONDON, Aug. 27. The Daily Telegraph’s Stuttgart correspondent says that a threat to denationalise Aryan Germans living abroad if they do not demonstrate more loyal adherence to Nazism was made by Herr Boehle (Leader of the Nazis’ Foreign Organisation), speaking' at the annual congress of overseas Germans.
Herr Boehle declared that the majority of Germans abroad were loyal to Nazism, but he threatened drastic reprisals against traitors who, from the safety of foreign residence, criticised Nazism. He denied that Nazism encouraged spying, and especially attacked the British allegations of German espionage.
The Minister of the Interior (Dr. Frick) said: “The Germans overseas need no longer feel defenceless, as behind them stands the might of the new Germany.”
Only 18,000 delegates, many of whom are diplomatic and consular officials, were present, compared with 00,000 last year.
