From the time of the murderous purge of Ernst Röhm's brown shirted S.A, in 1934 Himmler and his S.S. have been all powerful in Germany and wherever Nazi rule penetrates, His schemes are well thought out, nothing is left to chance, for Himmler "knows", He has dossiers on the weaknesses and irregularities of everyone of importance in the Nazi Party which gives Hitler the whip hand over anyone who may disagree with him, The mass executions, the forced tnigration of captive populations, the supervision of concentration camps, the sadistic cruelty which is involved in the imposition of Nazi rule are controlled by Himmler's capable, ingenious, ruthless mind.
He is not a man of ideas but a man of action, preferably secret action, and it is the greatest misfortune of this unfortunate age that a man of such perverted and cruel ignorance should be in a position of such power, Tt has been said that the great figures of history, the dominant persofialities, do not shape the events of their period, but rather the workers behind the scenes, the crafty indivi-[duals whose hands direct the machinery; for it is they who present the accomplished facts, who plan the secret moves, who collect the information and prepare the force which make their plans certain of success, who if permitted to, do so send their heroes toppling down the Primrose path that leads to the everlasting bonfire.
Hitler has taken full advantage of the machinery for power created by Himmler, It is a force upon which he relies for extending his power by any means, however foul, and for protection ip adversity. "Heinrich Himmler has the clearest head in the country, he is a machine," says Hitler; and so he is, a cold implacable and fiendishly cruel machine that has imposed on the peoples subject to Hitler's domination a rule of terror, of prison camps, of secret executions, of unspeakable tortures, mental "and physical, such as make a mockery of 2,000 years of Christianity, His machine and his master must be driven back into the furnace and utterly destroyed, if the world is to know peace atid justice again,
