VIII in the political education of the individual resettler to the National Socialist thinking person. Here lies the leadership surrender of the party. It will have to be taken into account that it would be foolish to presume political insights or even national socialist convictions in these people's Germans who have been killed. If these people are often still caught up in confessional ties, then nothing would be more wrong than to draw hasty conclusions on their national political value. They have lived in foreign states so far and had little opportunity to know the facts of the National Socialist revolution in its inner content. Nevertheless, they are German people. They therefore carry in themselves the necessary equipment, which it is only necessary to wecen and to promote. Better than premature judgments are therefore patience, empathy and a psychologically wise education, especially of the youth, which will grow up anyway in HJ and BdM, in the Reichsarbeitsdienst and in the Wehrmacht to a new gender. In addition to the work on the resettlement of ethnic groups, this brochure also presents other measures which generally concern themselves with the consolidation of German ethnicity. It seems abundant to examine them in detail here already; rather, it may suffice to briefly point out their essential basic content. They focus on the questions of the treatment of foreign populations and on the problem of the recovery of lost German blood. Both questions are inevitably linked to each other. If they are undressed from their partly complicated connections, they are to be brought to the following denominator: 1. In the treatment of "foreigners" it is essential to distinguish between those who, as foreigners, can never rise in the German people, and those who have become alien to the German nation only in their confession and language, but who are bloodly part of it. 2. Every attempt to treat the foreign-raced people by means of caring and advertising methods A clear and uncompromising divorce is therefore an unreliable commandment. Any mixture is of evil. The foreign-racists living in the German region have to obey the German leadership unreservedly (the treatment of foreign workers should not be addressed here). Minority rights or similar liberal compensatory methods are untimely within the German borders. Nevertheless, the foreign-racist person receives in case he achieves desired work, conventional and according to his life style income possibilities. Every overspişte care and every soft-hearted "fellowness" are, however, fundamentally false and are interpreted only as weakness. However, in a completely different way, the one who has only risen in his external attitude in a foreign folkry, which however bloodly belongs to the German people, must be treated. Jn or at least his children must be deprived of the foreign leader's offspring and to win over Germanism. However, Germanization can only take place in a German environment. The supreme principle for this is that no German blood must be a foreign nation of nut and be lost. It should also be stressed here that the great tasks of national politics which the Reichsführer intends to carry out are a shaken measure of responsibility, of sober clarity and of practical rigour for each subject-matter officer who has to do with human questions.
