"Germany has no gold reserve now a she had in 1914" declared Sir Herbert "and she is having a hard time obtaining provisions to feed her people. Wide spread defaults on obligations has de" stroyed her credit with foreign nations Mussolini, Hitler's only possible ally, i a' fickle friend in view of his record of treaty breaking in the past." While admitting Germany's rearma ment the greatest threat to peace, am that within a year she will be the great est military power on earth, Sir Her bert listed Germany's grievances an<: explained why he thought Germany could be appeased without bloodshed. "The Treaty of Versailles was a vera severe document" said Sir Herbert, "an German reparations were set far tot high for Germany's ability to pay. Fron 1919 to 1925 Germany was an outcasi among nations, humiliated, scorned b3 her arrogant victors. During these year; many chances for a peaceful reconcilia tion were lost." "Repudiation of the Treaty of Ver sailles was Hitler's chief rallying cry and six months after Hitler becam< chancellor Germany was transformed in to a war-threatening Fascist state. Th< youth of Germany was led to believe th< economic depression was due to th< iniquitous clauses of the Treaty of Ver sailles." "The youth of Germany between 1H and 35 years of age was either not born during war years, or was too young tc know anything about it,"' declared Sii Herbert.
