New York, To-day.
THE AMERICAN PRESS is not very impressed by the German White Paper which puts the respon- sibility for the war on the shoulders of the United States Government.
Indeed, the "New York Herald Tribune" makes fun of the White Paper, which says that the cause of the war, "believe it or not," seems to be as fol- lows:-
Nobody in Germany want- ed war or dreamed of it. Hitler sought only peace. He occupied Austria in the name of peace. He invaded Poland only because there was no other way of preserving peacex

Berlin, To-day.
Allied aeroplanes have never flown over Berlin or any other big German cities, announces Field - Marshal Goering's newspaper, in an article obviously written to support the burly man's statement many months ago that no foreign 'planes could possibly fly over Berlin.
