conclusion of further negotiations with the Reich Commissioners, and upon
completion of a final plan for the reorganization of the industrial association
system, the authoritative bodies will be called to a special meeting. The task

Reich Association of German Industry.*
The Reich Association clearly

the basis of the creative powers of the individual in the field of enterprise
and labor, and on the other hand in recognition of the basic principle of the
national idea and national responsibility, and that its success is not
conditioned by the outer form of the organization in itself, but by the spirit
in which the synthesis is found between political leadership and economic
necessity, for the ultimate good of the state and the people. |
