Hitler elucidates these points in "Mein Kampf," a book which he has described as "the building- stone to the joint work." Within
a few sentences of the opening of Chapter 1. the author strikes the keynote of his work, of his philo- sophy, of his life.
"Common blood should belong to a common Reich!". That is the central idea of Hitlerism, the very core of the creed now professed by 80,000,000 Germans.
Hitler, tells the German people that they have no right to dabble in a colonial policy as long as they are unable to gather their own sons into a common State. Not till the confines of the Reich include every single German, and are cer- tain of being able to nourish him, can there be a moral right for Ger- many to acquire territory abroad while her people are in need.
Later, Hitler makes it plain where he proposes to seek the ter- ritory. It is not in the colonies, but in Europe. Not in the West, but in the East. Russia is marked down for the eventual sacrifice.
Hitler, born an Austrian, hated the Austro-Hungarian State. He felt that the existence of the Habs- burg Dual Monarchy stood in the way of the true union of the Ger- mans of Germany and Austria.
Hitler even charges the Habs- burgs with seeking to enslave ten million Austro-Germans, under Slav domination (the total population of the Austro-Hungarian. Empire was 52 millions). He regards it as a just fate that the Archduke Fran- cis Ferdinand, "the greatest friend of the Slava," should fall a victim to Slay bullets at Serajevo in 1914.
Hitler saw
in the appointment of Czech priests to German-speaking parishes a sinister method of trans- forming Austria into a Czech State. vaut Herein lies the secret of his other- paule hrwise inexplicable anti-Czech, fury.
