Referring to the collapse of the Polish State, "Ribbentrop said that Germany will now see to it that a redistribution, justified by real-con- ditions, is carried out and that real appeasement takes place.

HITLER'8-EFFORTS Ribbentrop, recalling Hitler's efforts towards Anglo-German reconciliation declared that again and again Britain had adopted an unconciliatory atti- tude and Hitler only abandoned his efforts when he was forced to re- cognise that Britain did not want to conciliate.

Ribbentrop declared that the conclusion of the German-Russian pacts put Germany's foreign polloy on a new basis.

Traditional German-Sovlet friendly relations had been restored and there existed all the necessary conditions for deepening this friendship!

By far-reaching agreements, an ex- change of raw materials and indus-

Territorial divergence between the two states was out of

the question forever.

Mr. Chamberlain did not under- stand Hitler's historic peace offer. Misguided by his policy, Mr. Cham. berlain took it as a sign of weak-
