"Hitler Speaks" By Dr. Rauschning FUEHRER'S AMBITIONS IN THE WESTERN HEMISPHERE
About the United States, Hitler had his firm, preconceived opinion which no argument could shake.
This opinion was that North Ameri- ca would never take part in a Euro- pean war again, and that, with her millions of unemployed, the United States was on the brink of a revolu- tion from the outbreak of which only Hitler could save her.
I was present at a dinner-table con- versation in Hitler's flat when one of the guests suggested that it might be of decisive importance for Germany to win the friendship of North Am- erica.
Hitler expressed his contempt of the Government of the United States: "It is the last disgusting
death-rattle of a corrupt and out- worn system which is a blot on the history of this people. National Socialism alone is destined to liberate the American people from their ruling clique and give them back the means of Becoming a great nation." Hitler grew ani- mated. All other conversation died away.
"I shall," he continued, "undertake' this task simultaneously with the res- toration of Germany to her leading position in America."
"In what sense, my Fuehrer?" asked Goebbels.
"Have you forgetton that the de- claration of German as the national language was lost by only one voice in

"And the Yankees have falled to create a nation from It! They have instead kept their noses In their moneybags. To-day this is being avenged, Their difficulties will become Insuperable."
"Do you mean," I asked, "that the German-American, rejuvenated by National Socialism, will be called to lead a new America?"

"That is exactly what I mean," Hitler returned. "We shall soon have an S. A. in America, We shall train

The Nazis' scuttling policy is possibly also due to expectation that Germany's methods may again bring neutrals Into the war against her.

"Shall we not very greatly compli- cate our own struggle in Europe if we do this?" Interposed Hitler's guest. "Will not the powerful families be- come our bitterest enemies? My Fuehrer, I fear that your great plans will be shattered before they have time to ripen."
Hitler became excited.
"Will you understand, Sir, that our struggle against Versaillon and our struggle for a new world or. dor is one and the same; we can- not set limits here or there as we please."
"Nothing will be easler than to pro- duce a blood revolution in North Am-
erica," Goebbels interposed. "No other country has so many social and racial tensions. We shall be able to play on many strings there. The America of to-day will never again be a danger to us."
"It is a mistake to assume that it was a danger to use in the last war," Hitler remarked crossly. "Compared with the British and French, the Am- ericans behaved like clumsy boys. They ran straight into the line of fire, like young rabbits. The American is no soldier. The inferiority and deca- dence of this allegedly new world is evident in its military inefficiency."
"Nevertheless," Hitler's guest... re-........ peated, "I should like to be allowed to express a most humble warning that the Americans ought not be underestimated as an enemy."
"Who says anything of under. estimation?" Hitler exclaimed angrily, as he rose to lead the way from the table.
guarantee, gentlemen, that at the right mo- mont a new America will exist as our strongest supporter when we are ready to take the stride into overseas space."
Mexico
to
Mexico also played a special part in Hitler's American plans. Here, he was prepared to initiate far-sighted schemes and enterprises, the end of which he could not expect to
see.
His plans presupposed much longer periods of time than his European schemes, and his impatience towards European problems will be understood only if it is seen against the back- ground of his greater plans, for which his European policy was to provide the power basis.
One man has evidently greatly in- fluenced his conceptions concerning Mexico, a man who was a curious mixture of the great industrialist and the eccentric: Sir Henri Deterding of the Royal Dutch.
