GERMANS DESIRED PEACE
LEAGUE OFFICIAL’S VIEW DANZIG IN RETKOSFECT (Rccd Sept. 18, 0 a.m.) COPENHAGEN, Sept IG. Dr. K. Burckhardt, formerly League Commissioner in Danzig, i* an interview stated that Herr Hitler’s invitation to Bcrchtesgaden on August 13, came over late. "I might perhaps have had *-
chance at an earlier stage since, sn my opinion, every German desired peace from the bottom of his heart, he said. “The man-in-the-street in Danzig was indifferent and tired. None really thought that local affairs would occasion such a catastrophe. “I do not think that Poland is finished yet. The feeling of the Baltic States is that Russia will not enter the war unless the Germans arc being beaten.”
