A telegram from
Com. Locker-
Lampson to Herr Hitler, giving advice "as one Aryan to another," has not reached the Fuehrer..
It has been suppressed by the. Berlin aut
authorities.

empowers Governments to stop private telegrams "which appear dangerous to the security of the State or contrary to the laws of the country. or to pubile order or deconey,"
The banned telegram spoke of Ger- man money paying for "polson pro- paganda" in Palestine and anarchy in Jamaica, and accused Herr Hiller of stealing the liberty of his land.
