Section A
Answer Question 01.

From lyrics to ‘Raise the Flag’, by SA officer, Horst Wessel, 1929. Horst was murdered
in 1930; verse four was added in his honour. This became a popular Nazi song.
Raise the flag! The ranks tightly closed! The SA marches with calm steady step.
Comrades shot by the Red Front march in spirit within our ranks.
Clear the streets for the brown battalions, clear the streets for the Storm Division men!
Millions are looking upon the swastika, full of hope. The day of freedom and of bread
dawns! 5
For the last time, the call to arms is sounded! For the fight, we all stand prepared!
Already Hitler’s banners fly over all streets. The time of oppression will only last a little
while now!
Receive our salute; Horst died an honourable death! Horst Wessel fell, but thousands
newly arise. The anthem roars ahead of the brown army: the Storm Divisions are ready 10
to follow his path.
The flags are lowered before the immortal dead. The Storm Divisions swear, their hands
clenched into fists, that the day will come for revenge, not mercy, and Sieg Heil will ring
through the Fatherland.

From a speech by Adolf Hitler to a conference of business owners and industrialists in
Düsseldorf, a city in the northern Rhineland, 27 January 1932.
Some say that the National Socialist Movement is hostile to business. I am the champion
of the German economy, leading a revival through work, through industry, and through
ability, so that Germany can rise again. We will not recover unless we stop blaming
foreign powers for our problems. I know quite well, gentlemen, that you grumble when
you see our hundreds and thousands of young folk march in the evening, saying, “Why 5
must the Nazis always make such trouble?” What you have not realised is that these
volunteers work hard every evening, protecting meetings and taking part in marches to
inspire their neighbours, and then get up early to work equally hard in workshops and
factories. It is these men who are changing the fatal pessimism of the German people so
that we can get Germany back onto a new and secure path, ready to start producing, 10
buying and selling, creating a great economy inside Germany and protecting German
economic success in overseas trade.
