Abstract

The article focuses on the acquisition and expansion by Nazi leader Adolf Hitler of the daily newspaper "Völkischer Beobachter" in December 1920 as his personal mouthpiece. It discusses the electoral success of the Nazi Party (NSDAP) in September 1930. It says that since then, no one dared to compete with Hitler's press organs. It mentions the only goal of the central party leadership's press policy which is to preserve the commanding heights for the daily newspaper and other publications by the party's publishing house, the Eher Verlag. It also presents a letter from Hitler to editors of the local newspaper "Rundschreiben," which is used for recruitment of new members.
