Kiwanis Talk Frames Hitler Power as Unifying Force
Prof. Erich Funke, head of German at the University of Iowa, told 100 Kiwanis members that Hitler united 65 million Germans by exploiting wartime chaos and resentment over the Versailles Treaty. He argued Hitler’s strength rests on appealing to national unity, avoiding treaty provisions, and needing to outmaneuver radical leaders while winning over intellectuals. The Cedar Rapids and Iowa City clubs hosted a joint meeting with magic acts and musical interludes following the program.
