hh National Socialist German Workers' Party Secret. Party Chancellery The head of the party chancellery Führer-Hauptquartier, March 1, 43 Confidential! R u n d s c h r e i b e n No. 37/43 (Not for publication) Betr.: Mobilisation der deutschen Heimat. The Führer instructs me to this note: The measures ordered by the Führers to total warfare, which are decisive for the further course of the war, will only be successful with the help of the force of the movement. This is a particularly serious responsibility on the movement in this serious time. Every leading party comrade has to be aware of this responsibility. Of decisive importance for the strengthening of such a struggle decision is the personal image of each and every leading party member. We now no longer have time for teas, receptions and feasts, so that these non-foreign political reasons must be organized for the sake of the people, moreover, there is no understanding of peace-making big pleasures or long-standing alcoholic sittings of individual leaders. If you have to get the highest out of yourself day and night and have for a long time renounced some love, you must have the certainty that your leadership is leading dabéi with a good example. This wisdom is destroyed in hundreds and thousands if a leading party comrade behaves differently.
