LIGHTNING BLOW
GERMANY’S INTENTION IN SEPTEMBER HAD CZECH CRISIS ENDED IN WAR. DECLARATION BY MARSHAL GOERING. By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright. (Received This Day, 1.25 p.m.) BERLIN, March 1. Had war resulted from the Czech crisis in September Germany intended to attempt to crush her prospective opponents by one lightning blow from the air, declared Marshall Goering, in a second speech on Air Force Day. “One order,” he said, “and a hell inferno would have been unleashed. Peace was not saved because the justice of Germany’s cause was realised, but because people knew that if the problem was not solved peaceably Germany would solve it by other methods. The world knew we were not bluffing.”
