In his appeal His points included: 1 The conference of nations. 2 Disarmament, or failing that, an agreement to forbid the use of ixiison gas in order to reduce the hord to rors of war. The most important peace was a return of armaments to a sensible and economically bearable level. 3 Solution of the European Jewish problem. Possibly a restoration of a Polish state under German-Russia- n suzerainty, to contain only Poles. 5 Germany now has no demand to make but for colonies, and the need for colonies does not represent an uliimativc demand. Our only demand is for colonial possessions fitting for and suitable for the reich that is, the return of former German colonics, he said. 6 Germany will respect the neutrality of Denmark, Belgium, Jugoslavia and all other neighbors and desires only strong economic relations with them. 7Security is possible only on the basis of German-P.ritis- h secur-it""M- 1 friendship. If Britain and France are fighting solely to defeat Germany they can not do so, but even if they did the present situation would be the same in another 10 8 years. y The line between German and Russian interests is clearly drawn and there is no reason for hostilities betw een the nazi and communist 'states so long as they stick to their respective spheres.

Oct. 6 i:.R Adolf Hitler, in s. final" bid for peace before hie nazi relchstag, proposed today a conference of nations to achieve absolute security and peace in Europe and suggested the possibility of reducing armaments. In an apparent bid for a war armistice, he said a conference of nations would be impossible under the roar of cannons." Heavy Loss Disclosing, in a review of the Polish campaign, that Germany had lost 44,313 men in killed, wounded and missing, Hitler argued that there was nothing further for Europe to fight for now that Germany had crushed Poland. He estimated the total number of prisoners taken by the German army at nearly 700.000. Hitler's program for European peace touched on everything from disarmament to colonies and Jews. Having outlined his program. Hitler said: If peace and security are not achieved, and if the conception of Herr Churchill and his cronies prevail, then this will be my last declaration. Makes Threat We will then fight. Neither force of arms nor time will conquer Germany. There will be no more November, 1918 in German history. Hope of disintegration of our people is childish."

Reviewing the Polish campaign at length, he said that a grand success was achieved by the German army, though western powers had tried to belittle it. He said the collapse of Poland was inevitable. It was not a Polish state, he said, and was run by a clique of landed aristocrats. Also, he Bald, Poland wanted to destroy Germany. Discards Treaty I have pledged my word, he continued, "to discard the Versailles treaty. I have pledged my word to restore Germany's rights in a modest way.
