Warning that “accounts will be settled” with those in Germany opposing racial theories was voiced today by Dr. Walter Gross, head of the Nazi Party’s race department, addressing a physicians’ conference in Magdeburg.
He admitted that dissatisfaction still prevailed in the Reich, even within party ranks, about Nazi racial legislation.
“All the world is beginning to recognize Germany’s achievements,” he said, “but there are a few elements in Germany which disagree with our racial policy and are secretly sabotaging it.”
Dr. Gross was today awarded the Hamburg Senate prize in recognition of his work for the Nazi racial theory.
