When Sir Neville Henderson delivered the British note last night at the Chancery in Berlin, Herr Hitler received him in person. The contents of the correspondence are still being kept a close secret and neither side has released any details. This afternoon, in the Commons, the Prime Minister took great pains not to let any cats out of the diplomatic bag. However, it is unlikely that either side has changed its basic policy. Herr Hitler says that he wants to promote better understanding between Germany, Britain and France, as long as they don't get in the way of what he considers to be a 'just settlement' in Poland.
