The Whole Nation's Support For The Nazis

CLAIM MADE AT CONGRESS: GERMANY'S NARROW ESCAPE

Serious Allegations Against The Movement

Nuremberg, September 1. The claim that the whole nation supported the Nazi movement, which has now become the German Reich, was made in the long proclamation read on behalf of the Nazis by Herr Hitler at the opening of the Nazis Congress in a heflagged hall in the presence of a huge audience which received Herr Hitler and the other leaders with tremen- dous enthusiasm.

The proclamation

gave little

· enlightenment regarding the future plans and did not refer to foreign affairs, but recapitulated the evils! of Marxism and declared that Germany, at the beginning of the year, escaped, the Bolshevist terror by hair's breadth. It fore shadowed the continuance of the fight until the poisoners of the German people were wiped out..

Tremendous efforts

de- were manded to combat the most im-

portant problem of unemployment, and the parliamentary and demo- cratic principle was definitely re- pudiated, the proclamation declar- ing that the nations will be best declared through Its best brains.

The proclamation finally hinted at a reduction in the number of federal states, declaring that the German people and Nazism were not states constituted for the sole support of the Reich-Renter.

Grave Allegations.
