Finland Must Not Be Allowed To Disappear

We Would Fight Not For The Political Future Of A Distant City [danzig], Rather For Principles Whose Destruction Would Ruin The Possibility Of Peace And Security For The Peoples Of The Earth.

In The Event Of Any Action Which Clearly Threatened Polish Independence And Which The Polish Government Accordingly Considered It Vital To Resist With Their National Forces, His Majesty's Government Would Feel Themselves Bound At Once To Lend The Polish Government All Support In Their Power. They Have Given The Polish Government An Assurance To This Effect. I May Add That The French Government Have Authorized Me To Make It Plain That They Stand In The Same Position In This Matter.

I Believe It Is Peace For Our Time.

Though I Never Shout At Labour Members Or Insult Them, I Can Never Understand The Psychology Of Some Of Our Men Who Endeavoured To Reason With Them.

Ever Since I Assumed My Present Office My Main Purpose Has Been To Work For The Pacification Of Europe, For The Removal Of Those Suspicions And Those Animosities Which Have So Long Poisoned The Air. The Path Which Leads To Appeasement Is Long And Bristles With Obstacles. The Question Of Czechoslovakia Is The Latest And Perhaps The Most Dangerous. Now That We Have Got Past It, I Feel That It May Be Possible To Make Further Progress Along The Road To Sanity.
