London Papers Urge eau
lion In Dealing With
No. Three Fuehrer, Now
British Prisoner


LONDON. May l4.--Word that
Adolf Hitler may make a radio
broadcast 10 his people in ex-
rlaration Of the flight 10 Scot
land of No. Fuehrer Rudolf
Hess. today was greeted by Lon
don newspapers as an indication
of the gravity of the incident to
German leaders.
The newspapers, meanwhile,
have split over the question Of
whether Hess arrival in Scotland
Saturday aboard a fighting plane
was a gift from the gods" or
some sort OF fantastic Trojan
horse.
A Stockholm paper suggested
cditorially:
IF he Hess) is the first rat
to leave a sinking ship, he GER
tainly is an unusually large
one.
London papers, generally,
urged caution in dealing with
Hess, since, as one of them sug-
gested, 1T is unlikely a deep-dyed
Naai Of his type would change his

Hlitc information on where the
Aazi leader will be sent, or what
Information, If any, he has vol
pntecrcd since his arrival in Eng
land. Whereabouts Of Hess since
his removal from Scotland also
have been kept secret.
German reports reaching here,
meanwhile, continue to lay Hess
desertion to a disarranged mental
condition. In answer to the OBJ
Nious question of why he was per-
miited TO continue in responsible
office il his mental condition ac-
tually dated back TO World War
wounds, newspapers have ex-
planned that his fits Of insanity
were nfrequent and of short
duration.
German papers also have sug-
gested that Hess flew to the shores
Of Loeb Lomond in Scotland,
seeking the Duke of Hamilton, a
pre-war friend, with whom the
papers say he desired 10 talk over
a peace scheme Of his own.
