Berlin

The King's Raid Shelter Didn't

Know Then

HAVE been thinking of Berlin these last few days.

It is just about a year ago that I left.

During that week before war broke out Berlin was out- wardly calmer than any other capital in Europe.

Wilhelmstrasse was desert. ed. All the senior officials were on holiday. Few of the higher officers of the defence forces were in the capital, the War Office showed little signs of activity.

Hitler was reported to be preparing his speech for the forthcoming "Victory Cere- mony" at Tannenberg, mark- ing the 25th anniversary of the Hindenburg-Ludendorf victory.

HE first thing that strikes you is that the shelter is not torches, and a bottle of smelling salts. There is a house or rather n T

excessively elaborate, and in fact it is a housemaid's room palace-telephone. Although the windows are heavily shuttered and converted into an air-raid shelter. The linoleum on the floor is sandbagged outside, one of them has a flight of rough wooden steps, lead- ing to an emergency exit. Beside it stands a stirrup pump, buckets of covered with rugs which neither fit nor match in colour, and the sand and water, a couple of entrenching tools, and two hurricane lamps. big old-fashioned housemaid's sink still remains with nothing to screen it. A well-scrubbed deal table pushed against one wall was formerly piled high with sheets and towels. Now it has small mirror standing on it, with ivory brushes and a comb-in fact, it has been promoted to be the Queen's dressing-table.

There is a full-sized radlo set, similar to the one the King uses in his own sitting-room, and the cloers and windows have been treated so as to make the whole room gas-proof. Nearby are separate shelters for the Indies-in-waiting, equerries, and for every single person in the palace, each of whom goes to his or her appointed place when the sirens sound.

WRESTLING TONIGHT

The walls of the room are papered with rather a faded flowery FUNNY SIDE UP design, and the biggest bits of furniture are two large sofas and two armchaira, which have been brought down from one of the State apartments. They are covered in rich red brocaded satin, and the sofas are so long and so wide that they make comfortable beds. Folded rugs lie across them with large pillows, and beside one of them is a small, round, gilt table. On it stands a tray with quite a small teapot and two cups of thin white and gold china, marked with the royal crown. so that just as they did when taking refuge in a public shelter last week, the King and Queen may have "a nice cup of tea"-though in this case they can make it them- solves with a small electric kettle.

On another table, beside the opposite couch, are set out patience cards, bottles of mineral water and glasses, a notebook and pencils, two electric

In the city generally there was no sign of war. There was no in- dication that the people expected war either. Except for the clique Immediately around Hitler every- body was convinced that the Polish question would be settled peace- fully.

This conviction was general be- cause, the Goebbels propaganda I was working full blast to cover up all signs of the final pre-- porations for the war.

It was in the midst of all this that an official in Wilhelmstrasse whom I had known a number of years said to me: "It would be u

He replied, "I should go to-night if you can."
