VON PAPEN: Yes, because I had to hope that his further work would not lead to any disadvantages for Germany, even though he might separate himself from me as far as matters of domestic policy were concerned.
SIR DAVID MAXWELL-FYFE: You need not go on with the letters. You may take it that I shall deal with them in time, so do not read the others in advance.
As a result of that, you saw Hitler on that day, did you not?
Would you mind just answering my questions. I assure you I will take you through these letters.
You saw Hitler on that day?
VON PAPEN: I saw him earlier.
SIR DAVID MAXWELL-FYFE: But you also saw him after.
VON PAPEN: I saw him the day before. In the letter it says...
SIR DAVID MAXWELL-FYFE: Yes, but you saw him after this letter, and did you not agree with Hitler to remain Vice Chancellor until September, and that you would then take employment under the Foreign Office?
VON PAPEN: I do not believe so, no.
