IS GERMANY PREPARING WAR ?
[To the Editor of THE SPECTATOR.] S1R,—With reference to the last paragraph of Dr. Kircher's article in your issue of November 6th, a query seems to me pertinent.
Is the " Fiihrer and responsible Chancellor of the Reich " today really a different person from .the " defeated and imprisoned " Adolf Hitler of yesterday ? Do his " pro- gramme and deeds " offer the slightest evidence that his Views have undergone any essential modification since the first edition of Mein Kampf appeared ?
Dr. Kircher does well to commend " broadmindedness ". to Germany's critics. It needs a deal of broadmindedness to overlook a record of such persistent disregard either for international obligations or for international courtesy as his country has had the misfortune to acquire.—Yours faith- ANTHONY GISHFORD.
