HITLER’S INSANITY

The first bitt propaganda shell to be fired by the British and French - Governments in the event of war is ; a document of such sensational charr acter that a large number of people > are likely to regard it with scepticism. ; “Ken,” however, has reason to be- • lieve that the document is absolutely . genuine, and two of the signatures ■ are personally known to its correspondent. The document is a certificate of . lunacy signed by eight non-German specialists. It relates to Adolf Hitler. All eight are doctors who were called . at various .times during the eighteen months before September, 1938, to ; advise Hitler on one or another of the many slight complaints which' have troubled him. (It has been a matter, ; -of course for Hitler to send for foreign specialists in addition to his own doctors. They have been called from Paris, Rome, and Warsaw - wherever Hitler was worried about a I particular ailment). i Of the eight doctors who signed the 1 certificate of lunacy, five were known to one another before their visits to Adolf. All these five agreed in the course of subsequent discussion of his case that he. was a pronounced paranoiac. .They then consulted with the three other doctors who had been called th Berlin at various times, and asked their opinion. They found complete agreement—though each of the dfjctorsWiad a different theory as to ; the precise character of Hitler’s insanity! 41 They then drew up and sign-

ed a document setting forth their joint conclusions. This document was in the hands of the French Government last September, and the doctors . were, notified that in the event of war j it :> 'would rhe published, bur not other- j wige. This doctors were asked to for- . get all about it unless war should ‘ break out. Since then the document has been hidden under. a cloak of secrecy; but recently the doctors were ’ aaam notified of the possibility of it~ < publication if the European dynamite | F keg explodes.—“ Ken.” i ’■
