MEMORANDUM BY GUSTAV KRUPP, CONCERNING HIS STATEMENT TO HITLER ON 20 FEBRUARY 1933, AFTER HITLER’S SPEECH TO GERMAN INDUSTRIALISTS 
 
Memorandum* 
 
On the 20th of this month I expressed to Reich Chancellor Hitler the gratitude of approximately 25 industrialists present, [at the residence of the president of the Reichstag] for having given us such a clear picture of the conception of his ideas. I then emphasized that it would not be advisable to enter into a detailed discussion, but that I would like to underline three points with which all present would be in agreement —

1. That it is high time to finally clarify the questions pertaining to domestic politics in Germany.

2. That we, just as he, consider that the object of every regulation is to benefit the interest of the German people as a whole, not that of individual professions or classes.

3. That it is also our opinion that only in a politically strong and independent state could economy and business develop and flourish.
