An account of Chamberlain's meeting with Hitler at Berchtesgaden. "Neville Chamberlain came to tea with Jack last Friday 11th November 1938. He spoke freely of his interview at Bertchesgarden [sic] Hitler soon got very excited shook his hands in the air & cried, my Germans in Sudetenland are being totured & murdered. Then he said 'Well Mr. Chamberlain what terms have you come to propose?' I said, 'No, Fuehrer I have not come to offer terms, but merely to take back a message to my government, which will be discussed.' 'Well' said he 'would you be prepared to consider "self determination?"' Mr. Chamberlain also told me & Jack that he saw Goering whom he described as a big vulgar man who slapped people on the backs & told coarse stories . That Goebels was unpleasant but not so powerful as he had been. That he did not meet Himmler for which he was very glad. He said that Hitler is a man who only sees facts through blinkers like a horse & that when he calls Winston Churchill Jew-ridden he is really not thinking of Winston but of some German in Germany." - Mary Hills. "On 13 September [1938] [Chamberlain] decided to activate a plan already conceived at the end of August; he would see Hitler personally, and on 15 September he flew to Germany, where he met Hitler at Berchtesgaden. It was the first time in his life that he had flown. At Berchtesgaden he accepted in principle the proposition of self-determination and secession of non-Czech areas, subject to endorsement by the cabinet, and Hitler agreed to refrain from using force." (Oxford DNB). The Munich Agreement was settled on 29-30 September.
