7. German Preparation for Aggression PREPARATION FOR
THE ORGANISATION OF COLLECTIVE SELF-DEFENCE 23 7. German preparation for aggression PREPARATION FOR AGGRESSION: 1933-1936 (...) Renunciation of Armament Provisions of Versailles Treaty. 21 May 1935 was a very important date in the Nazi calendar. It was on that date that the Nazis passed the secret Reich Defense Law (2261-PS). The secrecy of their armament operations had already reached the point beyond which they could no longer maintain successful camouflage. Since their program called for still further expansion, they unilaterally renounced the armament provisions of the Versailles Treaty on the same date, 21 May 1935. Hitler’s speech to the Reichstag on that day (2288-PS) was published in “Voelkischer Beobachter” under the heading “The Fuehrer Notifies the World of the Way to Real Peace.” Hitler declared: “1. The German Reich Government refuses to adhere to the Geneva Resolution of 17 May. The Treaty of Versailles was not broken by Germany unilaterally, but the well-known paragraphs of the dictate of Versailles were violated, and consequently invalidated, by those powers who could not make up their minds to follow t he disarmament requested of Germany with their own disarmament as agreed upon by Treaty. 2. Because the other powers did not live up to their obligations under the disarmament program, the Government of the German Reich no longer considers itself bound to those articles, which are nothing but a discrimination against the German nation for an unlimited period of time, since, through them, Germany is being nailed down in a unilateral manner contrary to the spirit of the agreement.” (...) At this point, on 14 October 1933, Germany withdrew from the International Disarmament Conference and from the League of Nations. -

Chapter Three: Daily Life in the Public Domain, 1933–1938
125 Chapter Three: Daily Life in the Public Domain, 1933–1938 Nazi Policy toward the Jews The introduction and the implementation of Nazi policy toward the Jews affected them in all aspects of their lives, including the public domain. As the years progressed, their level of insecurity and lack of safety escalated. Whether policy dealt with public or private space, Jewish or non-Jewish space was inconsequential. All policy was engineered toward the demonisation, humiliation and exclusion of Jews from all spheres of life and influence in Germany. Included in this was their constant surveillance as declared ‘enemies of the German people.’ All policy also affected the behaviours and attitudes of non-Jews towards Jews in the public domain, as Jews had been allocated pariah status. In depicting the effect of Nazi policy on the daily lives of Jews in the city from 1933 until the pogrom in November 1938, a similar pattern corresponding to the time-line of economic disenfranchisement emerges. The initial shock and violence of 1933 was followed by a period of adjustment to their new and disturbing status.1 Ongoing boycotts and public defamation, combined with the exclusion from some public places, were the main features until the introduction of the Nuremberg Laws in 1935. After September 1935 Jews no longer possessed any legal status and were racially defined. This led to an open season of accusing Jews of either invented crimes or newly created crimes, such as ‘Rassenschande.’ In Magdeburg this resulted in show trials and the trial by media of a number of community members. -
