No. 284 : M. BARGETON, French Ambassador in Brussels, to M. Georges Bonnet, Minister for Foreign Affairs. Brussels, August 28, 1939.
(Received by telephone at 11.30 p.m.)
THE Prime Minster has just summoned me and requests me to inform you that the Queen of the Netherlands and the King of the Belgians have agreed to offer their "good offices" in view of a settlement of the crisis. This offer is made to the Governments of France, of England, of Germany, of Italy, and of Poland. An identical communication is being made this evening by the Netherlands Government to the representatives of the said five Powers at the Hague.
BARGETON.
