Hitler presents a "25-point program"

This 25-point political program, formulated for the Nazi Party, rejects the stipulations of the Treaty of Versailles and calls for a Greater Germany. It further states an intention to segregate Jews from "Aryan" society and to abolish Jewish rights: "Only a national comrade can be a citizen. Only someone of German blood, regardless of faith, can be a citizen. Therefore, no Jew can be a citizen."

Adolf Hitler issues first written comment on the "Jewish Question"

Hitler, who at this time is working as a political instructor in Bavaria, treats the Jews as a "race," not a religious community. He proposes a German government that will legislate against Jewish rights, stating: the “ultimate goal must definitely be the removal of the Jews altogether.”
