Hitler to Offer Peace Before End of Year Says Informant
Cairo dispatch reports Adolf Hitler may issue a peace offer to Britain and the United States before year end.

The informant suggests Germany could declare the war effectively over for Britain and focus on Russia, promising relentless retaliation for Allied bombing and losses.
