INTRODUCTION
The
New Germany desires
Work
and Peace
The above
is
the title given to this collection of the
speeches
which the German
Chancellor,
Adolf
Hitler,
has
delivered
since
his
entry
into
office on the
3Qth
January
1933.
That this Germany
wishes for
work
needs
no
further demonstration.
Nearly
five
million
men
and women
are struggling
to regain the
positions they have
l
ost
in
factories and offices.
Unemployment,
that terrible disease of our
times,
keeps them idle.
embarras~ed
The governments of
the
past, who, along
with their system,
have
been superseded by National Socalism, were
and
inactive
when faced by this pressing
problem. The
Hitler
Government have
made
their
plans
and
declared
war
on
unemployment.
It
is
not with outside aid that
they
intend to overcome
the evil;
they are not going
to
the
other
nations
of
the
world, as
their
predecessors
did, to beg
humbly for protection and assistance.
They
know
that
crises and despair are
prevalent in
every country, and
for
this reason they
have
determined to master
the
evil in their
own
way
and on
their
own
initiative.
The
return
of
two million men and
women
to
work bears witness
to the
fact
that Hitler's
attempt
to
solve
the problem
of
unemployment
has
not
been without
success.
But
just as this New Germany desires
work,
it
also
desires
peace.
It
has
announced
to the
whole world, through
the mouth
of the
Chancellor himself, speaking in the Reichstag, that
it has
no
aggressive
intentions
whatever,
that it
does not
wish to
prvvoke
anyone
nor to stir
up
unrest.
It
w
ishes
to pursue
its
work
in
peace
and
in a spirit of deep moral
conviction,
in
order
to make
sure
of its
daily
bread. It
stands
unarmed before the
world, and
has no
other
means of
proving
the genuineness of
its
intentions but its industry
and assiduity.
It
is firmly convinced
that the
world cannot regard
its
claims
with
indifference.
When this
Germany announces that it will
not
sign any treaties
that
cannot be observed, it only
does
so because
it intends
to observe
faithfully all
treaties that have
once
been
signed.
It
is
an orderly
and
disciplined Germany
in
which authority rules
that
has
been
,
awakened
by Adolf Hitler
and
his movement,
and
is
endeavouri ng
to
gain
the
confidence and
understanding
oi the world.
The world is
still
suspicious;
with
the
exception of a few men
who
have had
the courage
to look
the
facts in the
face, the
world
has no
understanding
whatever, or at best a very poor
one,
for the
meaning
of
the
events
that have taken place in Germany. Then
only
will
it
ready appreciate the
overwhelming
importance
of
the internal
revolution
in
Germany
when
Europe's need has become
so great
that
people everywhere begin to realize that,
without
mutual understanding
and
respect between nations, peace
cannot
flourish
and
that
the
scourge
of unemployment will continue to afflict
the
nations of the
world.
The speeches delivered by Adolf Hitler
since
the
3Qth
January
1933 are eloquent proofs of
Germany's
desire for
work and peace.
May
the
world
learn
at
least
one thing from them, namely, that the
German
nation
once
more deserves to
be
respected
by the other
nations
in the
same
way
as
it
can
now
once
more respect itself.

Dr. Joseph
Goehhels
Proclamation
by
the
Government to the
German Nation.
Berlin, 1 February
1933 •
More
than fourteen
years
have
gone by since that
unhappy
day
on
which
the
German
nation, deceived by
promises from without and
from within,
forgot the
glories of its past, forgot
its honour
and
its
freedom and
thereby lost
everything. Since that day of betrayal
the
Almighty
has
turned
His
countenance away from
us.
Strife and
hatred
have
been
the
order of the day. Millions of the
finest
German
men and women in all stations of
life have had to
behold with
heavy
hearts the unity
of the
nation
breaking
up
a.n
d disappearing
in a welter of egoistic political
theories,
selfish business
interests
and
conflicting social
doctrines.
Since
that day
of
revolution, Germany" has presented,
as
so
often
before in our
history,
a
heartbreaking
picture of
disunity. We have
not received
the promised
equality and
fraternity,
and we
have
lost
our
liberty.
The
collapse of
the
spiritual
unity
at
home
was followed
by the
loss
to our people of
their
political standing
in
the world.
We are firmly convinced
that
the German nation entered the
fight
in 1914 without
the
slightest
feeling
of guilt cm
its part
and
filled
only with the
desire to
defend its
Fatherland
which
had been
attacked
and
to
preserve the
freedom,
nay, the very existence, of the German
people. This being so, we can only see
in
the
disastrous
fate which
has overtaken us since those November
days
of
1918 the result
of
our own collapse at
home.
But the rest of the world too
has
.suffered
no less since then from overwhelming crises.
The
balance of power
which
had
evolved
in
the course of
history,
and which
formerly
played
no
small part
in bringing
about the
understanding
of
the
necessity
for
an
internal
solidarity of
the nations,
with all
its
advantages
for trade
and
commerce, has
been
set
on
one
side.
The
insane
Conception of Victors and
Vanq.uished
destroyed
the
confidence existing between nations, and, at
the
same
time, the
industry
of
the entire
world. The
misery
of our
people is
appalling!
Millions
of our
proletariate are
without work and without
