Hitler ordered the “perfect” Ger- man jet fighter converted in-to a bomber and "in your aerial warfare you had a great ally -_ in the Fuch- rer" because of Hitler's decisions. In the interrogations, which pro- duced more opinions than solid facts from Goering. the one-tlrrle powerful Nazi expressed disbelief that Russia could afford to enter the war against Japan without en- dangering her post-war economic position, the officers said. As for the jet-fighter the blue- prints of which were given to the Japanese, Goerlng said “there is a big difference between looking at a. blueprint and being able t0 do anything with it." Goering was quoted as saying these factors led to Germany's de- feat: Hitler's ignorance of the uSES cf air power; the unreliability of the Italians in the Mediterranean: the destructive force of Unlicd States long-range heavy bombers, and the over-all sulifefliflcy in E111’- opean waters of the British home fleet. Goerlng said the Germans failed to invade Britain after the fall of France because of the German navy's inadequate shipping Space. an insufficient number of landinfl craft and fear of the Royal NEW- but expressed belief that an in- vasion would have 5110099060 "m" a bridgehead had been Obtained because Britain had not enough bombers at that time. Urged Taking Gibraltar Goering said that early in the war he saw the need of taking Gibraltar by slipping down through Spain and assaulting that British bastion from the rear. The Span- ianis, he said, were friendly to the Germans because the “Germans had saved them from Communism." Goering said he used all his per- suasive powers on Hitler, but Hit- ler could not sec it and in his mad- ness tumed from Gibraltar and plunged into Russia. After the United States entered the war. success for the Allies be- came certain because of the irre- sistible numerical su-perlority of the Allied air forces, Gocring added, declaring; "the allies owe the suc- cess of the invasion to the air forces. They prepared the invasion. they made kiltumiisible, they carried it Coolness developed between Goer- ing and Hitler alter the invasion of Russia, the former Luftwaffe chieftain said, and from then on. Hitler's enthusiasm for Goerings ideas waned. Discussing V-weapons. Goering laughed as he told interrogation officers: “You were extremely lucky the war did not last another year. or that we were unable to start the use of our weapons one year earlier."

Describes Effort of Roosevelt to Avert World War BY LOUIS P. LOCI-INEB Caryl-um, 1945,Prby The Associatod $8 BAD KISBINGEN, Bavaria, Juno 18 — (AP) — Prince Louis Ferd- inand Hohenzollern, grandson of the late Kaiser. asserts that he served as messenger in a confidential move 1938 to preserve peace. He says the President. by the early autumn of i938, was so worried concerning the international sit- uation and the possibility of a world war that he took measures to i.rl- form the German government of his Willingness to meet Adolf Hit- ler. Benito Mussolini and Neville Chamberlain. then Britains Prime Minister, in the Azores for a coh- ference. (In WaSluHBion President Roose- velt's secretaries and former Under- secretary Sumner Welles said they never had heard of the reported message. Mrs. Roosevelt, through hal- secretary, said at Hyde Park, N.Y., she had no comment.) The Hohenzollern prince first told me of this mission in 1938; at that time I promised to keep it. confidential. (bochner was chief of the former AP bureau in Berlin up to the time of th)e United States entry into the W31’. But with President Roosevelt dead. Hitler reported dead and his foreign minister, Joachim Rlbben- trap, now in Allied hands, Prince Louis Ferdinand had agreed that there i; no longer any reason for withholding this interesting detail of recent history. This is the story of the Roose- velt peace gesture as he tells it: When he and his bride went on their honeymoon trip around the world 1n 193B they were guests of the Roosevelt; and he had many confidential chats with the Pres- ident on the dangers of Nazism and its imperialism; and militaristic throats. The President and Prince found themselves in complete ac- cord. Before the young couple departed for Germany, Mr. Roosevelt en- trusted Louis Ferdinand with sound- ing out Ribbentrop on the possib- llity of a personal. heert-to-hcrrt meeting of the American President, the German michrer. the Italian Duce and the British Prime Min- ister. Louis Ferdinand said Mr. Roosevelt gave him the Hitler mes- sage orally. Returning to Germany late in the autumn of 1936 the Prince pre- pared a memorandum to Ribbon- trop. Ribbentrop had not even the courtesy to acknowlege receipt Then a reply revealing Hitler's attitude toward the President came in quite a different manner than the one expected Christmas was approaching. so the young Hohen- sollern sent a. message to the Roose- velts thanking them for their hoe- pltality and extending the seasons greetings. ‘Fuhrer’: Greatest Enemy" Hardly had the telegram been handed in when a L/uftwaffe of- ficer appeared ‘Louis Ferdinand then 1015 servirid in the German air force "I have been sent by Mar- shai Goerlng to demand how you dared communicate with our Fuch- rer's greatest enemy.” the officer slid. "Our Puehrer raersonally or- dered the Marshal to investigate. answer you will be discharged dill’ Wchrmadiiit Unless you have a satisfactory in Miollfllihd With by the late President Roosevelt in , other consequences a possibility.‘ "What saved my skin at that time.‘ the Prince told me, “was the fact that we had sent messages not only to the Roosevelts but also to statesmen in other countries in which we had been entertained..." After this eplsod; Louis Ferdin- and ceased pressing Ribbentrop for a reply to hi; memorandum. u“ Liberals Seeking Balance of Power DONIION, June 17 — (OP) — Si: Archibald Sinclair's liberal party has insufficient candidates in the July 5 election campaign to have any hope of forming a government but contends it may nevertheless ibe the "decisive influence" in the ‘new parliament. Liberal fortunes have been a0 low wince the Last Liberal administra- tion under RH. Asquith during itha First Great War that it waa natural for voters to consider the 194B election simply a; g fight dun ing the 10-year parliament just dissolved.
