Appeasement Without Peace
(Received 8.30 a.m.)
LONDON, December 15,
In a grimly worded editorial headed “Appeasement' Without Peace,” the “New York Herald-Tribune” says: “The Germans seem genuinely surprised and hurt that anyone . should have thought it rude of them to kick the Prime Minister in the face and that the Prime Minister, although labouring earnestly at the bellows, finds the flames of appeasement only flickering lower and lower.
“It seems absurd that the mere act of walking out of a banquet, however officially performed, should have the power to affect the fate of Europe, but it is so typical of the difficulties which a totalitarian State presents to any kind of co-operation of appeasement with democracies that it probably does serve to bring one small step nearer that general holocaust which Mr Chamberlain still grimly maintains he has averted.”
