...Then Herr Hitler (through Dr. Dietrich) tried again one of his offside diplomatic plays. If the U. S. would only tell Britain it would not support her in a war unless she first tried to settle the issues at a conference table, the war would be ended. Dr. Dietrich felt sure that Herr Hitler would delay giving the command to start firing on a big scale until President Roosevelt could indicate his willingness to mediate.
