"The sudden and abrupt deletion of all individuals occupying the lower bands of the tone scale from the social order would result in an almost instant rise in the cultural tone and would interrupt the dwindling spiral into which any society may have entered. It is not necessary to produce a world of clears in order to have a reasonable and worthwhile social order; it is only necessary to delete those individuals who range from 2.0 down, either by processing them enough ... or simply quarantining them from the society."

I think Adolf Hitler tried this already, didn't he? Does Hubbard mean what I think he means?

As horrifing as it seems to sane people, yes, that is exactly what he meant. And remember that this is Scientology Scripture! It reads like something out of Hitler's _Mein Kamph_ (a person Hubbard greatly admired in many respects). Hubbard said these "undersirables" would have their own final solution by either concentration campes of "disposed of quietly and without sorrow." One method was "R2-45" i.e., shooting them to death.
