VOELKISCHER BEOBACHTER, SOUTH GERMAN EDITION MUNICH, 10 November 1934
Speech of Hitler on 9 November 1934
This November of 1923 gave us yet something else. It gave me the opportunity to lay down the new tactics of the Party and to pledge it to legality, without thereby turning the movement into a cowardly club affair. Then I could say to the Party what would otherwise never have been possible: from now on we fight as I want it and not otherwise. Nobody needs io teach me how to make a revolution; that I know myself. We thus have fought legally until today and yet have not lost the German youth, nor the impulsive strength of our people. Had we not marched in November 1923, all this would never have been possible.
