have been preparing the way for a

fused his "just" offer for a settle

Sources close to the government

French concern was shown by the
fact that Premier Edouard Dala-

dress to attend a state luncheon
given by Rumanian Foreign Min
lister Grigore Gafencu.
Also attending the luncheon were
Gen. Maurice Gustave Gamelin,

Answer to April IA Message.
Hitler's speech was in answer to the
message which President Roosevelt
cabled to the Fuehrer and to Premier
Mussollni OF Italy April IA proposing
they give assurance that YOUR
armed forces will not attack or in
wade the territory or possessions" of
81 nations, for at least 10 years.
The message, delivered Saturday
April 10, promised President Roose-
Velts services in transmitting such
assurances to the governments con-
cerned and in inquiring whether
such nations would give like assur-
ances to Germany and Italy.
In event of reciprocal assur-
ances' the United States President
proposed discussions of world re-
lief from the crushing burden of

There was speculation here as to
whether President Roosevelt would
take note of the Fuehrer's speech
in an address opening the New York
Worlds Fair on Sunday.
In such case. Hitler would have
the opportunity to answer right
back for he was scheduled to speak
twice during the national May Day

His first speech is to be brief

Germany Hears Speech

The Nazi rarty took every precau-
ton to give all access to the broad.
cast. Theaters, public halls, cafes,
restaurants and tea shops were
equipped with radios. Every busy
street corner had its loud speaker
tuned in.
Many restaurants had advertised
for days that patrons would be able
to eat and listen to Hitler at the

The Free City of Danzig-which
has been hankering to return

Ribbentrop, then German Ambassa-
dor at Large. confirming the Anglo
German naval pact. described it in
letter to Sir Samuel Hoare, then
British foreign secretary, as "a per-
manent and definite agreement"
The pact did not include any de-
nunciation clause, and an official
foreign Office spokesman declared
that lacking such clause the pact
could only be terminated by writ
ten agreement between the two par
ties
Britain always has contended that
the naval pact could not be re-
pudiated by one nation.
Accord Signed June 1s, 1885.
The accord, signed June 10, 1885,
limited Germany's fleet to 35 per
cent of the total tonnage of Britain's
Navy and provided for limitation of
ornaments.
Germany, in December, 1898, took
advantage of her rights under the
treaty and announced her intention
to build up her submarine tonnage
until it equaled Britains. She also
increased the ornaments on two
10.000-ton cruisers.
Naval experts in London believe
Hitler summed up Germany's naval
relations with Britain in another
Reichstag speech on May 81, 1885,
when he said:
Germany has not " the neces-
sity or the means to participate in
any new naval rivalry"
Officials Silent on Speech.

believe it is good thing for
millions and millions of people that
I, thanks to the last-minute insight
of responsible men on the other
side. succeeded in averting such an
explosion and found a solution
which I am convinced has finally
abolished this problem of a source
OF danger in Central Europe.
The contention that this solution
is contrary to the Munich agreement
can neither be supported nor con-
flrmed. This agreement could un-
der no circumstances be regarded as
final because it admitted that other
problems required and remained to
be solved. We cannot really be re-
preached for the fact that the par
ties concerned-and this is the de-
Gliding factor-did not turn to the
four powers. but only to Italy and
Germany; or yet for the fact that
the state as such finally split up
OF its own accord, and there. conse-
quently, is no longer any Czecho-
slovakia.
1t was, however, understandable
that long after the ethnographic
principle had ben made invalid, Ger
many should take under her protec-
ton her interests dating back
thousand years. which are not only
of a political but also of an economic
nature.

wrong. are not subject to German
supervision or criticism.
This is also the case with these old
German celebrates. However, I en-
tirely fail to understand how the

Chamberlain and myself at Munich

Denunciotion of Pact
Bluff, Poles Declare

WARSAW. April % (F.-Adolf
Hitler's denunciation of the 10-year
1884 non-aggression pact with Po-
land was characterized as bluff" in
authoritative Polish circles today.
"He is just trying to scare Poland" :"
said one well-informed observer.
He won't get away with it,"
1t was stressed that Poland is
willing to negotiate with Germany
on the issue of the Free City of
Danzig, which Germany wants to
absorb, but that Hitler's original de-
mands on this subject were "impos-
sible.'
Some foreign diplomats saw the
possibility that Poland might move
closer to Soviet Russia because of
the German action.
Polish political circles reported
last night that Poland was willing
to accept legalization of the pres
ent Nazi rule in Danzig, provided
Germany confirms Poland's eco
nomic rights in the Free City.
The report said the Warsaw gov
ernment expressed willingness to
seek an end to all legal rights of
the League of Nations In Danzig.
Foreign diplomats saw little Of a
positive nature in the Polish stand,
for Danzig is ruled locally on orders
from Berlin and League officials are
not present.
These diplomats, however, saw
behind the Polish proposal q yelled
warning to Germany that legally
Danzig still is under the League.
They pointed out it always was
possible Tor the Geneva organi-
zation to send a commissioner to
Danzig with an international police
force which could hamper consid-
erably the Nazi rule of the Free
City.
Poland has indicated she would
resist any German attempt to an
mex Danzig by force.

at Warsaw last night and issued
this statement:

Hitler Eloquent
Before Reichstaq
In Spite Of Cold
862 Uniformed Deputies
Greet Fuehrer's Talk
With Cheers, Laughter
BY the Associated Press.


BERLIN. April 28.-Reichsfuhrer
Hitler, suffering from a cold, held a
handkerchief in his left hand while
he read the manuscript of his ad-
dress today to the Reichstag.
Nevertheless he was not hindered
from giving the impression that he
never had enjoyed making a speech
so much.
With timely voice infections, with
hand at his hips and with shoulder
shrugs he def1ed, challenged and
mimicked to a point not found GUS
tomarily in Hitler oratory.
He kept his high-booted audience
in the Kroll Opera House in cheers
and laughter as he developed his
lengthy speech.
Deputies in Good Humor.
The 1862 deputies showed more
excitement and good humor than
usual in Reichstag sessions.
When he finished he threw the
last two pages of his manuscript
on his desk and stalked with long
strides and swinging arms to his
seat.
Then he pumped down and raised
his arms while the Deputies rose to
sing Deutschland Ueber Allie"
and the Horst Vessel song.
The Kroll Opera House was
jammed to capacity and the diplo-
matte gallery was full.
-Four loudspeakers attached to
lamp posts sent Hitler's words blar-
ing through the windows of the
United States Embassy.
Representatives of Paul Joseph
Goebbels' department of propa-
ganda and public enlightenment
picked out the four posts on the
Pariserplatz along with a number
of others in that area to spread the
Fuehrer's speech through amph-
f1ers.
Words Resound Across Square.
The American Embassy is on one
side of the Pariserplatz and the
French Embassy on the other.
Hitler's words sounded back and
forth across the almost deserted lit
tie square just inside the Branden-
burg gate.
The British Embassy, a short dis
tance away, in the Wilhelmstrasse,
was we'll within hearing range.
1t rained lightly but steadily
throughout the address and the
lamppost transmitters attract only a
handful of open-air listeners.
A soldier standing guard just in
side the Brandenburg gate was the
most prominent and most faithful
listener.
Other loudspeakers were set up in
beautiful wooded surroundings and
by handsome landmarks.
Wherever one walked in the Tier
garten, near the opera house, the
Fuehrer's words rolled like thunder
through the wet branches.
The crowd which watched Hitler's
arrival and departure from the
opera house was composed mostly
OF SIS and SA men assigned to guard
his path.
While Hitler was inside the build
ing, many of the SIS men put their
steel helmets on the pavement to
hold their position while they took
shelter from the rain.
A busy little man in a white coat
did thriving business in wieners
under a tree across from the opera
house.
Downtown establishments locked
their doors during the address and
turned on radios.
Millions of Germans in homes,
factories and schools likewise lis
tened, as ordered by Propaganda
Minister Goebbels.
