German-Polish crisis over Danzig:
Today german Chancellor Adolph Hitler shocked the british government of Neville Chamberlain and of course Poland when he announced he wanted to see the free City of Danzig, which is under the regulation of the league of nations, join the German Reich.
Nagotiations have been confirmed to have started. Germany demands the City of Danzig to return to the Reich, a 1km thick corridor to connect Danzig with the mainland and a new non.aggression pact with poland since it sees the one from 1934 as invalid.
by Robert Dutch, New York Times
Monthly series: Germany
As always in our series we will take a closer look on what happens in Germany, sometimes with comments by our Chief Editor Charles Marinee.
27 January — Adolph Hitler orders Plan Z, a 5-year naval expansion programme intended to provide for a huge German fleet capable of crushing the Royal Navy by 1944. The Kriegsmarine is given the first priority on the allotment of German economic resources.
30 January — Hitler gives a speech before the Reichstag calling for an "export battle" to increase German foreign exchange holdings. The same speech also sees Hitler's "prophecy" where he warns that if "Jewish financers" start a war against Germany, the "...result will be the annihilation of the Jewish race in Europe".

The North American Periodical
Series 1, Article 1
Issued by the Service Sequence of Publications (SS.Pub.)
Statement from the Service Sequence of Publications:
Due to the current instability of caused by the regime change, all publishements by Newspapers, no matter the degree at which they are independant, will be ceased and the Service Sequence of Publications under the Directorship of Mr. Wilton Ivie will be operating as sole publications service in the United States. Attempting to publish papers of any sorts without passing through a SS.Pub. Division Quarters will result in imprisonment until the Special Sequence of Social Relations (SS.SR.) is in proper functioning form.
You have been warned, thank you for your understanding.
Howard Scott named Continental and Transitory Director of the North America Technate:
Howard Scott, an American from the state of Virginia, born on April 1st 1880 and of Scottish-Irish descent, he had been educated in Europe and later served as a pilot of the British Airforce during the late years of World War One, he would later become the owner of a small local chemicals shop (The Durban Chemical Company) on the outskirts of New York which he would abandon due to his works on the American Energy Survey with the Technical Alliance, a percursor to Technocracy Incorporated. He would later become the founder of Technocracy Incorporated and has now been declared "Continental and Transitory Director of the North American Technate" (CTD-NAT, for short) due to him being the founder and Director in-Chief of the Mouvement. His inauguration took place in Washington D.C. and a Continental Tour will take place once proper transitory programs are put in place. Below is a list of cities our dear leader is set to visit on his Tour:
Cleveland, Detroit, Chicago, Madison, Bismarck, Helena, Seattle, Olympia, Salem, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Phoenix, Santa Fe, Austin, Little Rock, Memphis, Nashville, Frankfort, Charleston and will then return back to the capital.Photo of Howard Scott.
The flag of the North American Technate:
Following the collapse of the United States Gouvernment and the takeover of the state by Technocracy Incorporated, lead by Director in-chief Howard Scott, the falg of the nation will be changed to signal the fall of the Old Regime and America's "turn in the road" towards a new future. New Official Flag of the North American Technate.
An emblem ever since the foundation of the mouvement, the Monad – "in vermilion and French gray, which is an ancient Chinese symbol signifying unity, balance, growth, and dynamic functioning for the security of the life processes" as described by Howard Scott, will take it's place in the middle of the new flag. It will be surrounded by multiple lines made of shades of gray.
This new flag is expected to fly over the walls of every state capital and all other major cities by order of the Continental Board and the Continental and Transitory Director of the North America Technate.
Establishement of the Continental Constabulary of the North American Technate:
Following orders of the Continental Board and the Continental and Transitory Director of the North American Technate, all police and investigation forces will be centralised under the new organisation, the Continental Constabulary. The Director of this new organisation will be J. Edgar Hoover, the former Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. It's worth noting that the CC will not be a Sequence of it's own but will rather function under the authority of the Special Sequence of the Armed Forces (SS.AF.). It will use the most scientific and efficient methods know to date in order to keep the citizens of the North American Technate secure.Photo of the Director of the CC, J. Edgar Hoover.
Due to the shambles that was the old legal system, functioning under no rational or scientific basis, and as the new judiciary (SS.SR) has yet to be organised, the CC will only be able to give one universal punishement: prison time until said legal system can function in the intended way.

Today, Jon Håvard Christoffer the Third assumed power over the Norwegian lands after a sudden blackout following the unsuspected death of the Norwegian royals. His plans for Norway are clear. The northern parts of Norway have been lost to an unknown foe.
The Initiation 3:30pm the members of the royal family are found dead, with multiple bullet wounds in their bodies. It is still unknown who the murderer is.
4:50pm Christoffer the Third assumes power over the still in-tact southern parts of Norway.
6:10pm The Oslo Fires begin, riots in the streets are out of authority control. Oslo was destroyed, with approximately 5.000 confirmed dead and 7.000 heavily injured. Kristiansand has been elected as the new capital due to its ports.
3:30am Christoffer officially announces that he will go a more authoritarian route, to prevent incidents like the Oslo Fires.
The Speech "We are gathered here today not only to grieve over the Oslo Fires, but also for me to explain what my plans for the country are. You see, we don't want incidents like this happening again. We shall go the fascist way, a brilliant ideology that has gained popularity in Italy recently." (Minute of Silence)
"I believe that we should all look back at things like this. Never forget. This is the reason we need to crack down on people. This is why. Thank you." - Jon Håvard Christoffer (The crowd cheers and applauds their new Kaiser)
Who? Jon Håvard Christoffer is the son of an englishman and a Norwegian mother. His father left for sea, and hasn't been there for him. His mother, a single mother of two, has taken very good care of him and his sister. At a very young age of 15, Jon Håvard got very invested in politics. He is now 42 years old, as the Kaiser of Norway.

FINLAND EXPECTS NATIONAL SERVICE!
Be a hero; protect the Fatherland In the wake of rising tensions with the USSR, Parliament today announced a significant boost to the nation’s recruitment programme, attempting to draw in extra reserve forces of a young adult male demographic. All deemed “idle” by the state who are not contributing to Greater Finnish prosperity are to be enrolled in either the military or into various industrial positions to increase production of armaments and munitions. An additional cautionary measure; the country’s north-eastern waters are to be mined in deterrence of invasion and a warning to our Eastern neighbour.
DIPLOMATIC MISSIONS TO PROMOTE REGIONAL HEALTH AND FORTUNE Presidentti Hjalmar Lindberg, with the help of his cabinet, has announced the commencement of a new initiative to open the country up to trade and relations with the nations of Germany, Norway and Sweden. Discussions with the German Reich are already in process, meanwhile contact with others is still being sought.

11th of February 1939
The North American Periodical
Series 1, Article 2
Issued by the Service Sequence of Publications (SS.Pub.)
Statement from the Service Sequence of Publications:
The statement previously issued by the SS.Pub. is still in place. Publishing without authorisation from a local Publications Division Quarters will result in imprisonment until new order.
You have been warned, thank you for your understanding.
Establishement of the Special Sequence of Foreign Relations:
The former foreign relations system has been deleted and revamped to better suit the needs of the North American Technate. It has now been put under the control of Robert Worth Bingham, former United States ambassador to the United Kingdom of Great-Britain and Northern Ireland from 1933 to 1937.
Robert Worth Bingham will serve as the Special Sequence Director of Foreign Relations
He will enact 3 new major changes to the old foreign policy:
- All embassies with foreign states will be closed for an unknown duration of time and not all are guarenteed to be reopened. This is to better streamline our foreign policy and relations, as we do not want to spend for relations between states that suit no greater need for the NAT. A discussion will commence first on the 12th of April at Magadan, in the Russian Far East, with the leaders of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics for the reopening of the Soviet-American Embassy and further cooperation between the NAT and USSR.
Magadan City, where Robert Worth Bingham is set to meet with Mister Molotov
- This will be followed by a meeting at Tokyo on the 30th for the discussion on the state of Japanese-American relations and the possibility of territorial exchange between the Technate and the Nippon Empire to ensure future cooperation and friendship. It is also suppose to find a solution to the high number of Asiatics currently living in the United States.
- The Technate will be set to leave most if not all international treaties set by the old regime. The most important of which are the Washington and London Naval Treaties, further building of greater vessels for the United States Navy is set to happen after this and the Navy itself is set to be redone and reorganised to be as efficient as possible.
Howard Scott has stated that:
"When European problems are solved, they are solved by Europeans, Technocracy has no objections to Europeans killing off Europeans. Technocracy has no objections to Asiatics eliminating their fellow Asiatics. Technocracy is opposed, however, to Asiatics and Europeans killing North Americans for any reason. When the people of other continents kill citizens of those continents in warfare, it is their business. All men die and death is the end of life, Technocracy is opposed to the high cost and inconvenience of Americans dying en masse in a foreign country. Technocracy contends that Americans should die at home. It is cheaper, and it is preferable that the dead of America should rest only in America. They would never rest beneath the soil of an alien country."
As such, the discussions with the Soviet Union and Imperial Japan are not expected to lead to much more than an economic cooperation treaty and a non-agression pact.
Head of the C.C. issues new regulatory laws on alchoolic beverages:
"The Government of the United States, as a measure of national safety and national welfare, shall close all public bars and limit the sale of spirituous beverages, wines, and liquors to restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and licensed liquor stores. Owning or attending such bars without a licence issued by the C.C. will result in prison time until new orders."
North American Millitary set for reorganisation:
Following statements from Washington D.C., the United States millitary is set to be reorganised into the new North American Millitary, all details have yet to be decided but what is for certain is that the Army is set to grow to numbers close to a million, as is the United States Airforce (to be renamed to the North American Airforce) and the United States Navy (as state above, to be renamed to the North American Navy), whose vessel designs are no longer to be constrained by the previous naval treaties and bigger ships are to be expected followed by the decommisioning of numerous older, outdated and ineffective vessels and the renaming of other vessels which previously had names too friendly to the Old Regime.

Germany demands Memelland!
In its seemingly endless quest to acquire more and more territory she lost, Germany now successfully demanded the region of Memelland from Lithuania, a strip of land lost to the Versailles Treaty in 1919. After rumors of a verbal ultimatum by german foreign Minister von Ribbentrop to lithuanian officials it is now confirmed that the region will join the evergrowing Reich. The treaties contents were published and comprised of five articles:
“
Article I: The Klaipėda Region, cut off from Germany by the Treaty of Versailles, is reunited with the German Reich, effective today.
Article II: The Klaipėda Region is to be evacuated immediately by Lithuanian military and police forces. The Lithuanian Government will take care that the territory is left in orderly condition through the evacuation.
Both sides will name commissioners, so far as it will prove necessary, who are able to carry out the handing over of administration not held in the hands of autonomous authorities of the Klaipėda Region.
Regulations of the rest of the questions resulting from the exchange of State sovereignty, especially economic and financial questions, questions of officials as well as citizenship, are reserved for special agreements.
Article III: In order to make allowance for her economic needs, a Lithuanian free-port zone will be established for Lithuania in Klaipėda. Details will be expressively regulated in accordance with directions of an enclosure attached to this agreement.
Article IV: In order to strengthen their decision and to safeguard the friendly development of relations between Germany and Lithuania, both sides assume the obligation neither to proceed against the other by force nor to support an attack from a third side against one of the two sides.
Article V: This agreement becomes effective upon signature. In witness, whereof, the plenipotentiaries of both sides sign this treaty, prepared double in double original in the German and in the Lithuanian languages.
Berlin, February 22, 1939
” by Henry Fontaine, New York Times
Christoffer the Third of Norway to meet Hitler After an anouncement previously made by the norwegian government stating the intention of the norwegian ruler to come into friendly contact with the German Reich, to secure their border in the south no doubt, both dictators met at Schloss Bellevue in Berlin. If any agreements were made or alliances struck is not known as of yet, and it is expected to be announced by Norway to join the Axis - the german led Fascist military pact- and join the anti-comintern pact as well.

Christoffer III shocks Sweden with announcement calling for unity Christoffer III shokingly announced that he wanted to unite Norway and Sweden once again, this time under Norwegian rule.
"For too long have we let the Swedish off the hook with this issue. However, it was easy to see that Sweden was a great ally. I believe in a united north. I have high hopes for Finland, Denmark and Sweden to show interest in joining forces with us.", "To my despair, it does not seem that Sweden quite agrees with my statement. I believe that, only with force, we may stand united. We shall avenge Norway's dire past and create a bright future, for all of us.".
He finds great support within his own borders. However, Denmark and Finland's views on this issue are not yet known. If this is a call for war, or simply a threat, is also not yet known. Simple people from both Norway and Sweden are looking towards the future with fear, hope and confusion.
What is your opinion of the Kaiser? We have asked around Norway what people think of the new king, and let's just say the answers are interesting.
Interviewee: Lukas Tveiten Position: Local salesman "He's alright, I guess. Fascism is generally looked at as bad oversees, but it hasn't influenced my incomes. I believe that Jon Håvard knows what he's doing."
Interviewee: Trygve Elias Hoslemo Position: Farmer "He's a complete and utter idiot. An ideology from Italy never brings anything good, nor does anything from there really."
Interviewee: Yngvar Konsmo Position: Baron of Audnedal "I'm not sure what to think of him, really. He's clearly not a royal though. I mean, he is our leader, so he has to have done something right."
Interviewee: Jon Håvard Christoffer Position: Kaiser of Norway "He's pretty neat."

End of the Magadan Meeting and Results
Officers of the Special Sequence of Foreign Relations have finally arrived home in Los Anageles following a two week long meeting between Soviet and American diplomats in Magadana, in the Russian Far East. This meeting has lead to more results than previously expected by the Contiental Board, reopening embassies between the two states and has also firmly strenghtend American and Soviet relations thanks to the USSR-NAT Friendship and Cooperation Compact. This pact will assure continued peace between the Worker's Utopia and the Technate and will instate the USSR-NAT Commission on Naval Developement, which will have it's head at Magadan and will be charge with helping the construction of Soviet and American naval offences and defences, starting with American aid to the construction of 14 new Soviet Battleships in Riga, as a response to the growing naval power of the Third German Reich:
-The continuation of construction of the planned "Sovetsky Soyuz" class battleships also known as "Stalin's Republics":
They were named so because they are named after the 13 Soviet Republics:
SNS Rossiya SNS Latvija SNS Lietuviu SNS Bielaruś SNS Ukrayina SNS Sakartvelo SNS Hayastan SNS Azerbaycan SNS Qazaqstan SNS Uzbekystan SNS Türkmenistan SNS Kırgızstan SNS Toçikī
-The start of the construction of the "Kronstadt" class battleship.
The Sovetsky Soyuz (top) and the Kronstadt class (bottom) battleships.
Starting Naval Developement of the Vermillon Fleet:
The Naval Divison of the Special Sequence of the Armed Forces has announced that it will follow the construction of an Atlantic "Vermillon Fleet" which will not be constrained by the Naval Commission in the same way as the "Gray Fleet" in the Pacific and that multiple new ships will be built following an "all-or-nothing" design scheme in order to challenge the Royal Navy of the United Kingdom's hegemony ove the Atlantic.
Most notable ships planned for construction are:
-NAN Iowa:
Will eventually be transfered to the Gray Fleet.
-NAN Alaska:
-NAN Alabama:
-NAN North Dakota:
Enactement of Greater Gun Regulation Laws:
As the Technate is in an unstable and transitory stage, new gun regulation laws will be put in place to make sure that everyone may live in a secure state. This does not mean that guns will be banned, but certain restrictions will be put in place as to limit which guns may be bought and more regulations to assure that the buyers are mentally stable enough to posses a firearm.
With this, J. Edgar Hoover has announced that service in the C.C. will be made easier and more accesible, and will provide security to those living in more rural and isolated areas thanks to volunatry help from those in urban spaces. You may now more easily apply for service around the North American Technate in local Continental Constabulary Units.
Planning for Educational Reforms:
The Technate's teachers and psychologists will shortly be holding a nation wide summit in order to plan the functioning of the Service Sequence of Education and the new education system as a whole. The old one was ineffective and ended up being a great waste of time for the children of the nation, and was not flexible enough to accomodate itself to the ways of learning of different students. Educaton is also important because it will be the future gateway towards holding office on the Continental Board and other offices of the Technocratic gouvernment, as such, refining education is imperative.

Germany prepares for war
The developments in Europe seem to lead towards a terrible conclusion of German-polish tension as no side wants to give up in their struggle, too not seem weak. British and French encouragement are only adding more fuel to the polish hybris and let no nagotiation fall onto fruitful ground. Germany will have to deside quickly if it will let itself be dictated again by the british/french anti-german alliance.
Karl Burckhardt, the League of Nations high commissioner of Danzig, noted to British Lord Halifax that Hitler told him:
"If the slightest incident happens now, I shall crush the Poles without warning in such a way that no trace of Poland can be found afterwards. I shall strike with the full force of a mechanized army, of which the Poles have no conception."
von Albert Karlson, Der Stürmer
Germany innovates its Navy
German officials have announced the completion of the first aircraft carrier in the service of the Reich, the 'Graf Zeppelin'. Other details besides its operationality have not been given to the press, but it is expected that more will be released as time progresses and military clearence has been given by the Führer himself.
von Fritz Lieblich, Der Stürmer

The 'Graf Zeppelin'
The German army to hold a practice near the polish border
It is rumored that 62 Devisions of the Wehrmacht have been transferd to the eastern borders in Schlesien, Pommern and Ost-Preußen and that they are there to practice joint warfare to prepare for coming events. Poland seems unaware of the danger she is in and seems to trust Britain and France to save them in the coming months.
