HITLER’S PLANS

FUTURE OF HOLLAND FIXED (United Press Assn.—Elec. Tel. Copyright) (Received Dec. 14, noon) LONDON. Dec. 13 Admitting that fear of Royal Air Force bombs and naval shells has forced him to evacuate certain sections of the German and Dutch administrations from the Dutch coast, Dr Seyss Inquart, in a speech at a Nazi rally in Holland, said that as Reich Commissioner he would remain at The Hague. He also emphasised the necessity of demolishing buildings on the approaches to German positions. Dr. Inquart disclosed that last week he visited Hitler’s headquarters, where, after discussion, the Fuehrer settled the principles for the future of Holland as follows: (1) The Dutch would not be treated as conquered people. (2) Tne Dutch must be brought closer to Nazism. (3) Dutch Nazism, with Mussert as leader, would secure that development. Hitler declared that the future of Holland must await the settlement of Europe, which was definable only after our staking of the European frontiers. These would have to be extended far from Europe in some quarters. Hitler added: ‘‘l am thinking of Africa and our gallant southern allies.”
