English Translation

Henderson had already in the car with Kundt much deba- ted about National Socialism, civil servants' questions ect. Henderson asked then still, what happens if German country intervenes ? K.H. answered, that is exactly what we want to avoid. The nationalxity problem of this state had been an international problem in l98 and that is why we have made it an international one again today. At that time, England and France had been the godfathers, and today, we turn to England and French again and want the problem to be solved not in a warlike way, but in front of an international porum. In conclusion, Henderson said: Yes, if things are so, then I can only regret that in Karlovy Vary there was a need for twists which have created a completely different impression. Under voluminous autonomy, an Englishman understands an autonomy such as that enjoyed by Kannada or Australia, but what K.H. calls for is local self-government in England, but not complete. He saw that the demands were not overstretched and that also the autnomy was not demanded sozkrass, as this had been understood. Henderson was also convinced that there was a possibility of a peaceful solution, since the Czech government had also expressed its will to reach an agreement gxxxskt.
