if he is bad, which I believe he is. For the sake of the German people I hope in
my heart that I am wrong. The world continues to suffer under a system that
has to bow to a Hitler to keep itself on its feet. Poor world, poor humanity.
This is a synopsis of "Sidney Warburg's" suppressed book on the financial origins of
national socialism in Germany. Some of the information in the book is now common
knowledge although only part was generally known in the early 1930s. It is
extraordinary to note that the unknown author had access to information that only surfaced
many years later for example, the identity of the von Heydt bank as a Hitler financial
conduit. Why was the book taken off the bookstands and suppressed? The stated reason for
withdrawal was that "Sidney Warburg" did not exist, that the book was a forgery, and that
the Warburg family claimed it contained anti-Semitic and libelous statements.
The information in the book was resurrected after World War II and published in other
books in an anti-Semitic context which does not exist in the original 1933 book. Two of
these post-war books were Rene Sonderegger's Spanischer Sommer and Werner
Zimmerman's Liebet Eure Feinde.
Most importantly James P. Warburg of New York signed an affidavit in 1949, which was
published as an appendix in von Papen's Memoirs. This Warburg affidavit emphatically
denied the authenticity of the "Sidney Warburg" book and claimed it was a hoax,
Unfortunately, James P. Warburg focuses on the 1947 Sonderegger anti-Semitic book
Spanischer Sommer, not the original suppressed "Sidney Warburg" book published in 1933
where the only anti-Semitism stems from Hitler's alleged statements.
In other words, the Warburg affidavit raised far more questions than it resolved. We should
therefore look at Warburg's 1949 affidavit denying the authenticity of Financial Sources of
National Socialism.
James Paul Warburg's Affidavit
In 1953 Nazi Franz von Papen published his Memoirs.8 This was the same Franz von Papen
who had been active in the United States on behalf of German espionage in World War I. In
his Memoirs, Franz von Papen discusses the question of financing Hitler and places the
blame squarely on industrialist Fritz Thyssen and banker Kurt von Sehroder. Papen denies
that he (Papen) financed Hitler, and indeed no credible evidence has been forthcoming to
link von Papen with Hitler's funds (although Zimmerman in Liebert Eure Feinde accuses
Papen of donating 14 million marks). In this context von Papen mentions "Sidney
Warburg's" The Financial Sources of National Socialism, together with the two more recent
post-World War II books by Werner Zimmerman and Rene Sonderegger (alias Severin
Reinhardt).9 Papen adds that:
James P. Warburg is able to refute the whole falsification in his affidavit ....
For my own part I am most grateful to Mr. Warburg for disposing once and for
all of this malicious libel. It is almost impossible to refute accusations of this
sort by simple negation, and his authoritative denial has enabled me to give
body to my own protestations.10
There are two sections to Appendix II of Papen's book. First is a statement by James P.
Warburg; second is the affidavit, dated July 15, 1949.
The opening paragraph of the statement records that in 1933 the Dutch publishing house of
Holkema and Warendorf published De Geldbronnen van Het Nationaal-Socialisme. Drie
Gesprekken Met Hitler, and adds that,
This book was allegedly written by "Sidney Warburg." A partner in the
Amsterdam firm of Warburg & Co. informed James P. Warburg of the book
and Holkema and Warendorf were informed that no such person as "Sidney
Warburg" existed. They thereupon withdrew the book from circulation.
James Warburg then makes two sequential and seemingly contradictory statements:
... the book contained a mass of libelous material against various members of
my family and against a number of prominent banking houses and individuals
in New York· I have never to this day seen a copy of the book. Apparently only
a handful of copies escaped the publisher's withdrawal.
Now on the one hand Warburg claims he has never seen a copy of the "Sidney Warburg"
book, and on the other hand says it is "libelous" and proceeds to construct a detailed
affidavit on a sentence by sentence basis to refute the information supposedly in a book he [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
