FOR THE
BRITISH` R.A.F. BOMBERS RAIDED GERMANY ON SUNDAY AND
DROPPED THOUSANDS OF LEAFLETS INTENDED GERMAN PEOPLE, A CCORDING TO FRONTIER REPORTS REACHING AMSTERDAM.
Entitled "Advice from Great Britain to Germany,”
the leaflets say that deliberately and coolly the German Government imposed war on Britain, although she knew the consequences which would plunge the world into greater misfortune than in 1914.

Hitler assured the world of his pacific intentions, which were as false as his words last September "We do not have any other territorial claim in Europe."
Never had any government sent its people to war for such a futile object. The present war was completely un- necessary.
German land and right was - not threatened. Nobody hindered the re- the occupation of the Rhineland or Sudetenland Anschluss. Neither Bri- tain nor any other country had tried to limit Germany, provided the inde- pendence of non-German nations not threatened...

"You are on the verge of bankruptcy. The Allies dispose of innumerable re- serves of armaments, food and a re- solution toc strong to be smashed by blows and can fight ruthlessly until your total exhaustion.
RIGHT TO PEACE "You have the right to ask for peace now or at any time.
"We hope for peace and are prepar- wased to conclude a peace with any Ger- man Government that is sincerely been pacific.
