MAKING GOOD NAZIS
ELABORATE GERMAN SCHEME LEADERS TRAINED FROM BOYHOOD Received Nov. 24, 9.5 p.m. LONDON, Nov. 24. The Daily Telegraph's Berlin correspondent says that Herr Hitler took the chief part in consecrating a new “ordensburg” erected at Sonthofen for the culture of German youths. Dealing with a system which is the culmination of a semi-monastic order with four castles in different parts of Germany, Herr Hitler said that the whole of the juvenile population would be combed out for potential leaders, for whom 22 training schools would be created. Uniforms, books and pocket money would be provided during a course extending between the ages of 12 and 18, after which the first batch of 4000 would be apprenticed to trades, thereafter performing 2i years’ military service. The course would admit the youths to the universities without examination. Christian teaching would be excluded in favour of the Hitler cult. A hotel would be erected near each castle high school, enabling two million working men and women to spend a week’s holiday yearly in association with the future political leaders, which is expected to prevent the development of claustral abnormalities. The system would be fully operative in 1954.
