At a conference attended by German Nazi Leaders, Heinrich Himmler, Dr. Robert Ley and General Joseph Sepp Dietrich, Head of the Elite Guards, it was decided "to initiate an extreme left-wing policy, liquidating all capitalistic-tendencies and even the capitalists and Junkers within the Nazi Party." It is absolutely certain that countless people have been sacrificed, all lumped together under the general heading of big scoundrels. There were continuous arrests of aristocrats in all large cities. Dr. Ley fulminated against the whole blue-blooded, dirty, idiotic, criminal aristocracy. It is easy to contrive any number of theories as to the motives behind this campaign. The most obvious explanation is that the dying Nazi Party is making a desperate effort to win the greatest possible popularity with the greatest possible number.
