He had dismissed from his rump Government (the personnel of which was not disclosed) Foreign Minister Joachim von Ribbentrop. As rump Foreign Minister he named mild-mannered, Oxford-educated Count Lutz Schwerin von Krosigk, 58, Hitler's back-seat Minister of Finance, Krosigk echoed his Führer: peace for Germany but no surrender to the "Bolshevik terror...
