Mr. Chamberlain's Letters To Herr Hitler
London, To-day.
A White Paper issued last night contains corres- pondence respecting Czecho-Slovakia, includ- ing a letter from Lord Runciman to Mr. Cham- berlain on September 21, the Anglo-French proposals presented to Czecho-Slovakia, and Mr. Chamberlain's first letter to Hitler written for the purpose of clarifying the situation and accelerating their first conversations.
In later correspondence, Mr. Chamberlain said to
Hitler:
