NAZI LIES
EXPOSED BY AMERICAN JOURNALIST DESPATCHES DELIBERATELY FALSIFIED. / STORIES ABOUT LONDON AND DOVER. (British Official Wireless.) (Received This Day, 11.25 a.m). RUGBY, August 29. The distinguished American journalist, Mr H. Knickerbocker, has refuted another Nazi falsehood. A Berlin report alleged that he cabled to the American Press that he walked for two hours in London and its suburbs amid ruins and debris. He was alleged to have said that at- Dover the effects of panic were more terrible even that the effects of shells and bombs. This was repeated by the Rome radio last night. Mr Knickerbocker says “I was in Dover three weks ago. Nothing happened then and I have never mentioned Dover in any despatch of mine since that time. All my references to damaged areas in London were made to point out the difference between exaggerated German claims and the actual facts.”
