HITLER BOAST

ONLY ONE VICTOR “THAT IS US” ' TIRADE IN BEE UH ALL y FURY AGAINST’- BRITAIN “DOES NOT WANT PLACE’’ “O UI /PURE’ ’ J)I S C USSi ON LONDON, Nov. 8.

Speaking at Alunieli in a fatigued, hesitating voice at the anniversaryiot the beer hall putsch in 1923, Herr Hitler ascribed the failure of the German Government in the last war to the fact that'it'had noon dragged into war in unfavourable circumstances. He added that the enemy of 191-1-1018 wen; the same to-day. It was said then that Britain fought for justice and had done so in the past three centuries, for which she received from the Lord 40,000,000 .square kilometres of territory and 480,000,000 people to rule. England declared that she fought- for civilisation, hut this could only ho found in the slum areas, the distressed areas and in Whitechapel. England had said that she fought for humanity and not against, the German people, but against the German Government. Ah’. Winston Churchill and Air. Neville Chamberlain spoke thus in an endeavour to separate the Germans from their Government, said Herr Hitler. In 191.8 the victors spoke of a just peace. England and France promised to disarm. “It was quite conceivable that a nation of 44,009.000 people gaining rule over 150,003,000 wants peace and order,” said Herr Hitler. “Britain claims that she is- going to war to rid the world of war. 'that is what she has always (Lone. League of Nations. “It was planned after the last war that we should lay down our arms trussing in Britain’s” word that colonies were to he redistributed and the League of nations was to crown the whole plan, but the league only succeeded in sterlising it . “The German people will not be cheated again. 'The Allies promises in the li/jur of victory were all lies. “Where is the much-vaunted I’rced;.)!ll of the peoples? Where are all th“ piomised colonies? Where is the 1 assurance of general disarmament. — all lies. “If one Englishman says that England's frontier lies on the Vistula. I toll him : Sir, go hack to: your 'I liames. If an Englishman speaks of culture, I tell him Sir, the Germans had culture before Fnigland thought of if. “If the British declare that they are responsible tor the peoples ut central, south and eastern Europe, we are equally responsible for Palestine and India. When Lord Halifax refers to culture and art, I answer; We have accomplished more in six years than Britain in 100 years.” Events in Poland The events of Poland .showed how little Britain was in the late of that country; otherwise she would have declared war on Russia, but- the British said they had other war aims. If the British are lighting to end! war, they should have not have started this one. “We are convinced that there will lie a war until there is a. just division of the world’s riches,” declared Herr Hitler. “We also are convinced that there must he an end to war, which must not. recur every few years, hut inch nation must limit its interests to its own sphere. “Britain must realise that an att< nipt: t(. establish a police dictatorship will fail. We are fighting for the security ol our people. Germany is filled with an unconquerable will. rVilian does not want peace. Agreement With Russia “I have already spoken in the I’eichstag and 1 have nothing to add to that 'l'lie rest will he said in language that Bi itain will understand. “I regard it as a triumph of eommon.scii.se that we readied an agreement with llussia. “Germany will never capitulate. On the day war broke out I gave Field-

Marshall Goering orders to prepare for five years of war. Our strength against outside enemies is as great and steadfast as our internal struggle. “We. are spiritually and economically armed. We have developed all our resources to the last detail.- They will never lay us low, ~ economically nor inilitarily. • : :Thcrc can be only one victor—that is us.” Heir Hitler concluded by paying tribute to the victims of the 1923 putsch, addling: “Party comrades. Our party. Our German people. Above all, our victorious army: Si eg boil.” His tone changed from its earlier hesitancy to- bitterness and sarcasm. He spoke for 50 minutes.
