- 4 - to give binding information about our most recent political intentions: The declaration that we would allow every people to experience justice in accordance with their performance and talent would have been sufficient if the confidence in our justice and honesty had not been shaken by the personal conduct of significant representatives of his empire. The restoration of trust, however, is not just between individuals, but also between peoples the prerequisite of all cooperation. The restoration to trust requires the unrestricted recognition of moral principles, especially in the direction of the "Suum cuique!" of the Grand Elector. 5. In the internal discussion of the situation, the question of the relationship between the people and the leadership takes up a broad space. The demand for democracy approved by the Pope in Yalta for tactical reasons by Stalin begins to find a wider sounding board in our people, because no valves are opened. It is widely overlooked that only very small circles of the German people have a way of thinking about self-denial: the credo quia absurdum of the Church Fathers, the so-called "blind" faith contradicts the Nordic sense of responsibility and is before all in a country suf the duration impossible, which was mainly characterized by prote- stantism and in the psychic principle of justification found its human support. This "justification tendency" implies that the leadership is responsible from time to time to the people, that it irresponsibly punishes the guilty, admits mistakes and allows a certain degree of self-criticism and criticism. After even the Bolshevisms has introduced an internal-declared and calculated on mere deception/criticism, the renunciation of this valve for the future must lead to an ever stronger mental self-intoxication / by secretly listening to the enemy transmitters, over-excited arousal in self-experienced critical approaches etc./. 6. Part of the assessments of our internal situation so far are often summarized in the sentence that a far-reaching "fascist" falsification and alienation of the National Socialism has taken place. If fascism places the state as the power apparatus in the centre, it is understandable, because one must pessimistically judge the efficiency of the Italian people. Mussolini is here in the tradition of Gioberti, who saw in Italianism only a potential, but not an effective people. The Duce basically assumes that the fascist republic must first create a people. In the German area, however, the conditions are exactly the opposite: The German people are firmly established in their designs as the center of power of the highest cultural development and do not need to be driven by the official apparatus in essential parts of their lives. Such an "educational" attitude, however, was opposed to the German people by an embezzlement of its own value. In the German area, the state had to confine itself to its immediate functions of sovereignty and to its sovereign powers.
