Transcription: Left page   Von Radowitz said that there should be no hesitation in a very definite line being taken in Geneva with regard to Forster. He remarked that Hitler did not hear all that he should hear perhaps, and that if the question became public it would be inevitable that it should be brought to his attention and he believed the results would be good for Danzig, for Poland, for the League and also for Germany. The dualism in Danzig administration created an impossible situation for all interested. When I said that I found it impossible to make any distinction between the public position of Greiser and that of Forster and that on the other hand statements of the head of the Government had to be taken even more seriously; that furthermore there had been no evidence in any official transaction since the speech of November 27th of any weakening in the Senate's anti-League policy, he remarked that from his knowledge of events here he believed that would be clea cleared up. Greiser, he said, could not talk to me as he (von R.) was talking to me, and his comment was to the effect that Greiser dare not until Forster goes.   In recording this conversation I wish it to remain clear that any relations I have had with the German Consul General have always been strictly correct in so far as the Status of the FreeCity might be said to be concerned. The conversation is interesting, however, as a further confirmation of the information I obtained in Berlin as to the attitude of the German official authorities with regard to Forster.  Right page   14 . January 1935 [6]   Dined with Pres. Greiser in the Rathaus For the first time in the history of Danzig, so far as can be traced, ladies were allowed to dine in the Red Room, decorated with fine panelling, the pictures on the wall above the panels being indirectly illuminated and the dinner tables lit with candles A lovely old room with old silver and brass on the table.   The only notable political conversation was with German Cons. Gen. von Radowitz, who said, "F. must go and G. must stay" a service to all concerned, League, Danzig & Poland, if the parallelism could be once for all abolished. I said it was more than difficult to see how G. could be dissociated especially in view of his speech: that had dominated my report & would greatly influence decisions in Geneva.

Transcription: [Page one] It has been a hard task & unpleasant, too.   The marvellous Spanish art treaures from the Prado, & other Museums & private collections of art in Spain— stored in Catalonia—were evacuated when the war came up toward the frontier. They have been lodged in our building—an anxious care—& an inventory is to be made. All sorts of personal & political  complications.   Rubis—the gentle "Red" curator & artist, who stuck by his treasures & was like a  skeleton when he came into [Page two] France; Sert, the man who painted our Council room (on Burgos side) & his colleague Eugenio d'Ors. The latter hate each other even more than their opposite member. d'Ors especially has been making all kinds of trouble.  He has to be handled like a temperamental prima donna.   Behind the scenes conflicting efforts to have an exhibition (1) in Geneva (2) in Paris (3) in Italy before they are handed back.   Avenol being absent on holiday I have been kept  occupied with the affair
