The Counsellor at the West German Embassy in London reaffirmed today his government’s determination “to do everything in its power to prevent any revival of National Socialist ideas” in West Germany. The assurance was given in a letter from Dr. R. Thierfelder to the World Jewish Congress department of International Affairs in London.
Dr. Thierfelder, in his letter, noted that officials of the West German states “who, according to the basic law of the federal republic, are competent to deal with these matters, will continue their endeavors to prevent all attempts by any groups of persons to pursue policies directed against the democratic principles of the German constitution and the fundamental freedoms embodied therein.”
