GERMAN UNITY

AIMS 'OF NAZI MOVEMENT USE OF FORCE IF NECESSARY HITLER’S FOUR YEARS’ PLAN REDUCTION IN UNEMPLOYED EQUALITY CALL UNCEASING By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. Rec. 7 p.m. Berlin, May 2. “The Nazis desire to unite the people,” said Herr Hitler when speaking at the May Day demonstration. “If they will not get together we shall have to force them. The nation must recognise that the idealism of the worker alone enables the nation to live.”

Herr Hitler appealed for national unity and the abandonment of class prejudices. He outlined the first of a four years’ plan consisting of the reduction of the numbers of unemployed by public and private initiative such as house repairs, road-building and compulsory labour, Which was not an attack on the proletariat but was essential to extirpate class prejudice. Consequently every young German must serve a period of manual labour, enabling the people to understand each other. “Compulsory labour will teach the people that manual work is no shame,” he said. “On the contrary, it honours those performing it faithfully.” Herr Hitler concluded with an emotional outburst against world persecution of a nation which “must retort that whatever the world does we never bow our heads. Our call for equality will never cease. Germany is not a second-class nation, even if the world says so a thousand times.” A gigantic fireworks display followed the speech, including two hands joined in the grip of friendship. Inscribed in letters of fire were the words; * This is the day of national labour.” The display ended with a bombardment of fire shells and a salvo of 60,000 bombs. The Soviet’s new 500 kilowatt Moscow station transmitted revolutionary talks in German and seriously jammed Herr Hitler’s broadcast. FRENCH GOVERNMENT PERTURBED. NAZIS’ MILITARY PROPAGANDA.
