HITLER, as Rauschning

him

sees

IN the days when

National Socialism was young in Germany, one of the leaders of the cult was Hermann Raus- chning, a Prussian Jun- ker, chairman of the Danzig Senate. Rausch- ning was an intimate of Hitler, used to visit Der Fuehrer and listen to him expound his philosophies and detail his plans.

He broke with his chief on the issue of Jewish persecu- tions. Hitler ordered the Rauschring would have none Jews placed under disabilities.

of such tactics. So the two men parted, and Rauschning, in exile, wrote two books on the Nazis.

The first of these, "The Re- volution of Nihilism," des- cribed the Nazi philosophy and the system of geo-politics fathered by General Hausho- fer, and told how their dy- namism was driving the Ger- mans onward in a revolution which was without finality. The second book,

"Hitler. Speaks," was a summary of pronouncements the author had heard Hitler make. Now comes a third book, "The Re- demption .of

Democracy" (Longmans, Green).

This book carries

on the blue-printing of Hitler's re- volution. There is a good déal in it that was in the car- lier books, but much that is new. The book was largely written, it would seem, in British air raid shelters and carries something of the at- mosphere of a city under bombardment. The

tion of Nihilism, and the author insists it can not re- main simply European but must become, universal. The revolution of Nihilism he de- fines in words that lack some. thing of clarity, "as the ulti- mate form of the autocratic human will to dominate, at the point where it is trans- formed into its opposite: serfdom and bestiality.

Hitler's Object

There is an interesting chapter on Hitler's attitude to Great Britain and the United States. Der Fuehrer is con- vinced, he says, that if Ger- many is to be the dominant world power, she must win the mastery of the scas. But Hitler did not wish to win the mastery by fighting.

He offered compromise, for it was his object to dissolve Britain from within, to bind it by alliances to Nazi Ger- many, to transform it in- wardly, corrupt it, cause it to disintegrate. War, he felt, by strengthening the British people's will to survive, would have a regenerating effect. Attitude To Britain

Hitler's attempts to con- quer Britain from within has by no means ceased, - says Rauschning. Even in the midst of war they go on:

"In his (Hitler's) opinion, :* there is no unified national will to survive under a demo- cratic

or liberal regime. There are nothing but inter- ests and complexes of aims, easily played off against one another."

WALT DISNEY

in-

Hitler, the author timates, is satisfied as to his ability to handle the English masses. He sizes them up as having a desire for peace and security, that is, for peace, for the enjoyment of life and recreation and a better stan- dard of living. He is sure they can be convinced that war will lower their standard of living and that as soon as they are shown the useless- ness of their sacrifices they will grow refractory.

Hitler, regards the destruc- tion of the British Empire as the keystone of his arch. But he does. not take the United States too seriously. He regards it, ás exceedingly vulnerable to a type of revo lution which he would release upon it when the time came,

The New Mayflower

The author has a good deal to say of the storms and perils through which the New Mayflower is voyaging, but not very much of the port her passengers and crew. hope to reach.

spite of its name, the book is not very cleaf about the redemption of democracy. However, there is a vision of a new and just order which will depend upon the survival of the British Empire and the American Union:

"Around the Atlantic some sort of empire of peace may grow up. The power nucleus of the new order is springing from a union of the Anglo- Saxon peoples."

Herr Rauschning has faith in parliamentarism. He speaks of its "irreplaceable function!" "Through every conceivable change in the outer and inner forms of the community,'

he says, "the Parliamentary constitution will remain the one expres- sion of democracy that can Iny claim to universal -vali- dity."

"

Democracy, he defines as a balancing of varying forces. "Democracy is decentralisa- tion..

Above all, demo-" cracy is the, continual deve- lopment of tradition.'

Overseas

Committees

Throughout the world, groups of Frenchmen have responded to General de Gaulle by forming overseas committees and associations in his support. These com- mittees have been formed according to the laws and regulations of the various countries, and have taken, usually, the title of "France Libre" or "France For- ever." The sign of the "Croix de Lorraine" is their badge.

Certain of these committees, such as those of the United States, Canada, the Argentine, Mexico and Egypt, have become important organisations, but in all other countries, and the Dominions, are to be found similar committees on a smaller scale. Often the French population of a country is fairly limited, but the organisations number among, their sympathisers, friends of France who give generously their moral and financial support.

These associations are kept well informed of the activities of the Free French Forces by a special de- partment at the Free French Headquarters in London. The committee publish and distribute many thousands of brochures and news-sheets for distribution in the various countries, and arrange lectures and radio talks. Besides that, funds are collected to purchase ambu- lances, arms, munitions, and comforts for the Free French Forces

From the letters received in London from the com- mittees, it is evident that the large majority of French- men overseas have joined these associations, and put thebi
