HITLER’S NEW ORDER

WANTS TO ABSORB DUTCH NO PLACE I'Oll INDEPENDENT ' NETHERLANDS RIGHTING A FAULT London, Nov. I" ! According to a Hutch corespondent ol' "The Times," the Nazi Governor, Dr. Seyss Inquarl, has declared that there was no place for an independent Netherlands under Germany’s new European order. Hitler wanted to absorb the Dutch as his comrades, with equal spiritual and cultural rights. The Dutch belonged to the same race as the Germans, hut unfortunately they had not developed in the same way, and this fault must he corrected. Albanian patriots haw partly <!<• stroyed the important iron and copper mines in the Mirdita region in Albania, slates an Istanbul report. The Italian chief engineer and two assistants were killed. Many of the galleries were destroyed by bombs. The Italian sol diers, who offered no resistance, were stripped, and the insurgents tire now wearing the soldiers' uniforms and are active in other regions in North Albania. It is reported from Bucharest that a Greek has been found guilty for the i assassination ol a member of the Ger- j man military mission. Major Doring, i last January, and has been executed. Doring was shot as a result of a cafe j brawl. Prague radio to day said that four , persons who were sentenced to death | on 17th November were executed last j night. ROSENBERG’S RELIGION The German denials recently that j the last thought of the Nazi planners of the “new order” was an attack on Christianity are felt in London to be hardly consistent with the announcement in Berlin of the appointment byHerr Hitler of Dr. Alfred Rosenberg as Minister for the occupied eastern territory. Rosenberg’s spoken and written words have all been in favour of a strange i State religion, with the Nazi concep- j tion as the dominant ideal and the Christianity definitely’ excluded as i something incompatible with the "Ger man Nordic mentality.” Rosenberg has also been an expounder of the creed of race and of the natural superiority of the “pure Ayrian stock” —exemplified by the Nazi Party members —over all others. It is felt that the dragging forth of Rosenberg from the obscurity in which j he has for some time been plunged is i an evil omen of Hitler’s intentions regarding the treatment of the populations 1 he has overrun in his eastward campaign. Berlin announces that Rosenberg has i stated his intention of calling back to j Russia all who fled at the time of the i Revolution. He promises to restore ; their private property. He stresses that skilled workers and j industrial technicians will be particularly favoured for repatriation.
