"No recognition or toleration of any fruits of Hitlerite aggression," he says. "The watchword must be back to the German frontiers of 1919.' This means that the independence and the right of independent decision must be restored to Austria, Czechoslovakia within her pre-Munich borders and to Poland with Danzig. Memel is to be given the opportunity of choosing, without propaganda and pressure of any kind, its own allegiance. The total disappearance of Hitler with the entire Nazi personnel and system and the establishment in Germany of a government based on a representative democratic system."
The writer advocates that a federation of nations opposed to Hitlerism should be formed during the war.
"After the conclusion of peace with a government representative of democratic Germany," he continues, "the German people are to be admitted to this federation either as a political unit or as a confederation of German states, when it has been ascertained that they have disarmed to the level necessary for the maintenance of internal order and have set up institutions guaranteeing personal freedom and individual rights of all Germans without distinction of race, class or creed. The countries now neutral may be eligible to the federation, provided their institutions correspond to the principles of the federation itself which must exclude future neutrality towards aggression in any shape or form."—Hava
