328 DER FUEHRERgarded the English capitalists, in so far as they were not Jews, as theborn Aryan rulers of colored 'sub-humanity.' With these rulers, theGerman master-men must systematically and peaceably share Aryanworld domination, each in the corner allotted to him by Fate. 'England,Germany, Italy,' wrote Rosenberg in July, 1930, 'stand as though back toback. The stronger they become, the more dependent they are on oneanother. England's task is the protection of the white race in Africa andWest Asia; Germany's task is to safeguard Germanic Europe against thechaotic Mongolian flood and to hold down France, which has alreadybecome an advance guard of Africa. (Take a look at the French colonialarmy and bear in mind that even now a Negro represents the FrenchGovernment in the Geneva League of Nations.) Italy as a growingnation has a claim to Corsica, Tunis, Dalmatia, in order to prevent thedestruction of Europe by French Negro armies. None of the three statescan solve the task of destiny alone. . . .'

And the question was, whether arace-conscious National Socialist could doubt for a moment on whichside he belonged?Aryan Europe! Hitler looked confidently around the modest offices hehad rented beside the studio of his friend, Heinrich Hoffmann, thephotographer, in Schelling Strasse. When his glance fell on the wallmap, he could say: Half of this Europe already belongs to dictatorship,and the section that is still free in the heart of the continent will be bentto dictatorship by me.
