"HITLER SPEAKS"

(Continued from Page 12) treasure of Mexican soil, Germany could be rich and great! Why do we not tackle this task? We could get this Mexico for a couple of hundred mil- llon. Why should I not make an al- liance with Mexico, a defence alliance, and a customs alliance?"

South America

Another dinner table conversation revealed more of Hitler's political opinions about South America, and showed how far-reaching were his plans even then, and how mistaken was the belief that National Socialism had political aims only in the east and south-east of Europe. A trusted, lead- ing member of the S. A. had just re- turned from South America, and Hit- ler had engaged him in conversation. Over the coffee, Hitler took up the thread of the discourse again. Evident- ly his information was not detailed, and he was merely repeating various notions-highly popular at the time concerning the land of the future that he had gleaned from certain publica- tions. He was

specially interested in Brazil.

"We shall create A Germany there," he cried. "We everything shall find

we need there."

He then outlined broadly all that a hard-working and energetic govern- ment could do to create order. All the pre-conditions for a revolution were there, a revolution which in a few

fortnight decades, or even years, would trans-

form a corrupt mestizo state into a German dominion.

Hitler then asked further questions about German possibilities in South America. The Argentine and Bolivia were in the first line of interest, and it appeared that there were many points where National Socialist in-

unassailable? Moreover, this proposed polley was in contradition to the fun- damental rules laid down by-Mein Kampf. But now for the first time I heard derogatory mention made of this book in Hitler's presence, and concluded from this that it was by no means regarded in the inner circles as the binding pronouncement it was given out to be for the masses. It was Hanfstaengel's opinion that sooner or later we should in any case have to face the hostility of the United States

and Britain.. Germany was ready. Was I still cherishing, he contemptuously asked, illusions about Britain? As for the United States, they would certainly never interfere in Europe again; he knew that better than anyone, for he knew these gentry and their weak-

nesses. Britain, he proclaimed, was dead. Where else, he added, should of her Germany get the elements future world empire, if not from the disintergrating empires of Britain and France? The final struggle with Bri- tain could not be evaded.

"And if you look closer," conclud- ed Hanfataengel, "you will find that Main everything about Britain in Kampf is of purely tactical value. Hitler bad good write as he did. That night I heard mentioned for the first time the general outlines of the future great German overseas Reich, I was amazed to hear that Hitler was reaching out to the Pacific. Above all, he was interested in the former great German island empire, embracing the Dutch possessions and the whole of New Guinea. Japan must not be al- lowed to grow too big. Hitler remark- ed. It must be deflected against China and Russia. But Hitler also anticipat- of ed a Central African Dominion
