King Asked
to Write
to Hitler
('The Sunday Times*' Special
Message)
LONDON, Saturday.
IT is now revealed that, at the
* height of the Czech crisis, a
high personage in Court circles
actually proposed that King George
should write a personal peace mes-
sage to Adolf Hitler.
The reason for the suggestion was
that the King, being tradltlonaUy
above politics, could intervene without
loss of prestige.
It ls understood that th» matter was
referred to the Prim« Minister (Mr.
Chamberlain), who, by téléphone, ad-
vised the King that lt would be unwise
to involve himself In euch a delicate
mission. -.^B
