Persecution of Jews
Necessary
To Fight Bolshevism, Says Hitler
Berlin, Dec. 15. CHANCELLOR HITLER has been constrained to attempt
a defence of the persecution of Jews in Germany.
"Thebecessity of combating Bolshevism" is one of the fundamental reasons for the Jewish legislation in Germany," he said in a special interview at the Chancellery.
"Thi legislation is not anti-Jowish but pro-German," he added, and then declared with vigor:
"Germany is the bulwark of the West against Bolshevism, and, in combating it, will meet propaganda with propaganda, terror with tenor, and violence with violence."

"For this reason," suld the Chancellort was necessary take atopa in order to put a stop to this destructiveness and to ex- tablish a clear and clean division between the two races."
NAZI BRAND OF SELF-HELP The fundamental principle ac- cording to which this question is being handed in Germany, he went on. is that the Germans should re- ceive whats naturally due to them and e Jews. what is due to them. This policy furnished protection to the Jews themselves, a proof of which was the fact that, since the restrictive measures, the anti-Jewish feeling in the country had modifiell.
