Hitler? 'One helluva man!' says Lord Bath

"WELL, I just think he was one helluva man-and you can interpret

helluva how you like-in whichever way you think.”

I was talking to the Marquess of Bath about Hitler-the man who

recently bought two of the Fuehrer's paintings.

I asked him why he had bought them. "Well," he said, "I think in time they will be very valuable. It will be consequently a contribution to Longleat (the Marquess of Bath's ancestral home in Wiltshire).

"We have many wonderful things there," he continued. "For example, we have 12 Caxions.. I collected these paintings in the same way that people collect Napoleana, Yes,

"Personally, I am not sure that he was all that mad. He came into power in 33 and in less than ten years he had al- most won a world war."

I was talking to Lord Bath I am definitely interested in in his delightful home, Job'a Hitler as a personality. He may Mill at Crockerton, a few miles have been a maniac, but, still from the great house of Long very interesting.

"I remember the chief of staff was very pro-Hitler. We all used to have awful arguments with him in the rness. But he used to say, that it was stupid to be fighting Hitler because after defeating him we would have to go through the Bolshevist re- volution.

"We all sat on him at the time. But now Lord Bath put a hand through his hair in a puzzled gesture"I wonder if he wasn't right."

"The sheer scale of Hiller's actions, he continued, "is some- thing one cannot help admiring." We had reached the point in discussion when we had moved away from Hitler's picture as a curiosity to Lord Bath's attitude towards Nazism,

So I asked him: "Do you be leve in democracy?"

He locked through the with- dow out into his lovely garden all fresh green in May sunshine, and said "Well, no. I think democracy is a bad form of government. I think it is against the laws of nature. The very fact of being governed by sheer weight of numbers is wrong"
