GAINS WITHOUT RISK

EXPOSITION OF GERMAN AIMS SPEECH BY DR. GOEBBELS AT NUREMBERG. NEED FOR PROCEEDING CLEVERLY. (Recd This Day, 11.40 a.m.) BERLIN, April 8. Dr Goebbels, in a speech at Nuremberg, said German history could be summarised as a chain of lost opportunities, enabling Britain to build up her Empire. He admitted the impossibility in the circumstances of complaining of receiving too little. The nation must be active lest it return empty-handed. A rare’.moment had arrived when the world was being redistributed, but Germany must proceed cleverly and without risk, as with the Rhineland and Austria. “NOW IS OUR TURN” HOW COLONIAL PROBLEM WILL BE SOLVED. HERR HITLER AWAITING RARE MOMENT. (Recd This Day, 11.40 a.m.) LONDON, April 8. The “Daily Telegraph’s” Nuremberg correspondent says Dr Goebbel’s speech contained an extraordinarily frank explanation of German methods. He declared that Germany bided her time and awaited the best opportunities. She had occupied the Rhineland when France, Britain and Italy were tearing each others hair over Abyssinia. When the quarrel became really hot, she said, “Now it is our turn. The colonial problem will be solved in the same manner. I cannot foretell when these things must be done, when the least possible risk will be involved. Herr ■ Hitler is now carefully awaiting a rare moment to come for the world to be apportioned anew and Germany again demands a place in the sun.”
