PROPAGANDA FOR COLONIES
Nazis Absorb Private Society (United Press Assn.—Telegraph Copyright.) (Rec. 6.30 p.m.) London, June 13. Foreshadowing a vigorous campaign for the return of Germany’s former colonies, the new German Colonial League, which is a department of the Nazi organization, is absorbing the existing German Colonial Society and is launching a membership drive throughout Germany. Its 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 “colonial mindedness” in Germany since the days of Bismarck, was a private body; its absorption indicates how seriously colonial propaganda is now being taken by the authorities.
