Edward R. Murrow from London: Sir Neville Henderson is on his way to deliver the British cabinet's response to Hitler's demands for the Polish Corridor and the city of Danzig. The response contains alternative proposals. Murrow explains how war will affect the quality of life in England. Russia continues to supply the Poles with weapons and materials. Though war seems inevitable, there is hope that Russia will break the nonaggression pact if war does break out.

William L. Shirer from Berlin: Just before 8PM German time, Neville is due any minute. Germany will not compromise and is on a complete war footing, but the British answer may necessitate a reply. Ration cards have been issued and preparations for war continue. Foreigners were able to get out. Holland has decided to mobilize.
