| dc.description | Enclosed with No. 583. Had half-hour conversation with Foreign Minister following luncheon on Sept. 23; Minister leaving that evening for Geneva; had heard that Hungarian Premier [Julius] Goemboes was going to Berlin to a shooting party on Goering's invitation; telephoned Hungarian Foreign minister to verify; Minister didn't believe conflict in Abyssinia could now be avoided; Mussolini had gone too far to back down; Minister worried about Austrian commitments to Italy; remarked to Minister that Austria's main hope was in French-English accord; Minister agreed, but said it would have been better if England had acted sooner; Minister spoke of worsening conditions in Germany, of the Jewish laws which he called "the height of folly," and the chances of Germany taking action if hostilities broke out; von Papen, he said, was "utterly irresponsible" and was always counting "on the other man's being a gentleman." | en_US |
