PLANNED DER TAG FOR 1948

BRITAIN was to be German by 1948. The Nazis had a Ten-Year-Plan to “con- quer" Europe. In 1937 they carefully mapped their timetable of systematic aggression.

An original of the secret map was dis- covered by the Czech police in a raid in 1938 on the Prague headquarters of Konrad Henlein, leader of the German Nazí Party` in Czechoslovakia.

Although, Henlein claimed to be loyal to the democratic Czech State, he was later revealed to have been in secret negotiation with Hitler, and is now a local Gauleiter.

A photographic copy of the brutally planned timetable was brought to London by one of the official British observers in the Sudetenland.
