Lochner [head of the Associated Press] recalled that when the orgy was at its height, a cavalcade of cars drove into sight. 'It was the Propaganda Minister himself ... "Fellow students, German men and women," he cried as he stepped before the microphone for all Germany to hear him, "the age of extreme Jewish intellectualism has now ended." He praised the students of their hard work in "clearing up the debris of the past". For him, the 'healthy instincts of the Volk' would now determine the future of literature and art in Germany. Over 20,000 works were consumed by the flames that night.
