Extract from a letter from Nevile Henderson, British Ambassador in Germany, September 6th, 1938

Transcript

I suppose the chances of Hitler coming out at Nuremberg with what will amount to peace or what will amount to war (thunder there is sure to be) are about 50-50.  I opt for the former.  If I am right I do wish it might be possible to get at any rate the Times, Camrose, Beaverbrook Press etc to write up Hitler as an apostle of Peace.  It will be terribly shortsighted if this is not done. Cannot the News Dept help?

[Camrose was the owner of the Daily Telegraph at the time, Lord Beaverbrook owned the Daily Express]
