張伯倫的演講

The settlement of the Czechoslovakian problem, which has now been achieved is, in my view, only the prelude to a larger settlement in which all Europe may find peace.  This morning I had another talk with the German Chancellor, Herr Hitler, and here is the paper which bears his name upon it as well as mine.  Some of you, perhaps, have already heard what it contains but I would just like to read it to you: " ... We regard the agreement signed last night and the Anglo-German Naval Agreement as symbolic of the desire of our two peoples never to go to war with one another again.

我認為，現在已經實現的捷克斯洛伐克問題的解決，只是所有歐洲都能找到和平的更大解決辦法的前奏。今天早上，我又與德國總理希特勒先生進行了另一次談話，這張紙上既有他的名字，也有我的名字。你們當中有些人已經聽過它們所載的內容，但我只想讀給你們：“......我們認為昨晚簽署的協議和英德海軍協定，是我們兩國人民願望的象徵 永遠不要再與彼此開戰了。
