german chancellor adolph hitler arrives for a conference to be held here with british prime ministerille chamberlain. this meeting will long be remembered for it opens the door to the dreams of dictatorship. >> we regard the agreement we signed last night and the anglo-german naval agreement as a symbolic desire of our two peoples never to go to war with one another again. >> peace in our time. a shortcut to disaster. but even then this was no new lesson. it had stared us in the face with mussolini and ethiopia. ethiopia's emperor made his protest to the league of nations. but nothing was done. we'd also seen the auschwitz in austria and nothing was done. then in 1950, aggression was again unleashed. this time across the 38th parallel in korea. free men had begun to learn the lesson and something was done. the lesson had been learned, and president johnson had phrased its meaning well.
