FORMER COLONIES
VIGOROUS CAMPAIGN FOR
RETURN
GERMAN COLONIAL LEAGUE PROPAGANDA IN ALL SCHOOLS (United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright) LONDON, 12th June. Foreshadowing a vigorous campaign for the return of the colonies, the new German Colonial League, which is a department of the Nazi organisation, is absorbing the existing German Colonial Society and launching a membership drive throughout Germany. Plans include exhibitions, lectures, and propaganda in all German schools, also “colonial camps” in which the objective will be to impress the people that colonies are indispensable to a great modern nation. The Colonial Society, which has worked for the encouragement of co-ionial-mindedness in Germany since the days of Bismark, was a private body and its absorption indicates how seriously colonial propaganda is now taken by the authorities.
