They have nothing in common with the Nazi regime” declared the Independent Socialists of Germany in their message to the British Independent Labour Party. "Herr Hitler began the war against Boland against the wishes of large masses of the population. This is not our war. "We ask you in the midst of death and destruction not to forget the ■ideals for which we died under torture and for which we suffered in concentration camps. We protested )in our illegal pamphlets, spread even ■among the fortification workers and watched by the secret police, against the occupation of Austria, the annexation of’ Czechoslovakia and against Herr Hitler’s policy of aggression.”
