" AFTER HITLER'S FALL "

[To the Editor of THE SPECTATOR.] SIR,—In the number of October 12th of The Spectator you published an article about my new book After Hitler's Fall. Germany's Coming Reich. It is very far from me to interfere with my reviewers' opinion about my work, but I cannot let pass without protest one phrase in Mr. R. H. S. Crossman's article : " The same would happen to Prince LOwenstein were he, by some freak of chance, to succeed Hitler with the aid of French money and bayonets."

I challenge Mr. R. H. S. Crossman to give any proof that in my political writings or deeds I ever have shown the slightest inclination to conquer Hitlerism with the aid of French bayonets or otherwise prove a traitor to my nation and a mercenary of France. If Mr. R. H. S. Crossman is not able to prove such a monstrous thing I shall not think his article to be written in that spirit of fairness which we foreigners admire in political discussions contained in the English Press.—Yours sincerely,

- Vienna. PRINCE HUBERTUS LOEWENSTEIN.
