As Menzies so glowingly said...

HATS OFF TO HITLER
Menzies' Opinion
MELBOURNE, Friday.
Mr. Neville Chamberlain (British Prime Minister) had established a new departure in diplomacy and as a result the elements that made for peace were increasing every day, said Mr. R. G. Menzies (Federal Attorney-General), when addressing the Australian Women's National League today.

He had displayed more imagination in handling the European crisis than any other Prime Minister for a century, added Mr. Menzies. The French Revolution was a minor incident "If you were Germans," added Mr. Menzies, "you would take off your hats to Herr Hitler, who does really rule Germany and is not a figurehead. He has produced results. He has been able to bluff and the other nations have not been able to call his bluff."

Mr. Menzies expressed an opinion that the principal cause of war was ignorance.
