加米施——帕滕基兴，2月3日

在这里做播音显得有些愚蠢。
正在举行冬季运动会，德国所有的卫星国都参加了。
但我们对这些国家并无兴趣，我将每日播音内容局限于更严肃的关于这场可怕战争的主题。
困难在于城里唯一的麦克风位于溜冰场。

昨天，在下午2点的播音节目中，当我刚刚谈及战争中不幸的人们可能面临的前景时，有人就在播音室下面的冰球场上射门得分，场中顿时欢声雷动。
在这种情况下，我发现自己很难将注意力集中在希特勒今后的行动上。

今晚零点50分【注】做播音时，冰球比赛已经结束，体育场上一片空旷，我在雪地里等了很长时间，才把守夜人叫醒。
体育场上方的小播音室里非常冷，我被冻得牙齿“咔嗒嗒”直响，必须不断向手指哈热气才能保持灵活并给播音稿翻页。
我估计，哥伦比亚广播公司的听众可能会纳闷这种杂音来自何方。

我为鲍勃·X感到遗憾，他是随同我们前来的年轻美国记者。
他只是无法承受开战后与纳粹交往的压力而已，这也是可以理解的。
到这里后，他显然是有些紧张，放纵自己喝了太多酒，表达了自己的真实想法。
酒精有时会使人们口无遮拦，但不幸的是也为他引来了很大麻烦。
我估计在返回柏林后，纳粹会要求他离开德国。

今天，在晚餐室，两位著名的美国记者拒绝与他同桌吃饭。
我觉得这实在没必要，他俩实际上对纳粹批判得最多。

今天，希特勒下令，今后婴儿也必须使用服装配给卡。
当一个国家连尿布也短缺时，经济形势确实是够紧张的。

Good Evening. This is William L. Shirer. I'm speaking to you from Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany
晚上好。我是威廉-L-希勒。我在德国的加米施-帕滕基兴向你们播音，

It's a curious place to be speaking from, really.
这真是一个奇怪的地方，真的。

Im sitting in the press coop in the hockey-stadium, because this is the only place where i could find a microphone
我坐在曲棍球场的记者席上，因为这是我唯一能找到麦克风的地方。

It's almost 1 a.m., everyone 's gone home, and the stadium is dark.
现在几乎是凌晨1点。所有人都回家了，体育场一片漆黑。

but three hours ago it was a verylively place with several thousand fans applauding a hockey game between Germany and Yugoslavia and applauding even more some very graceful figure-skaters assembled here from various countries in Central Europe
但三小时前，这里还是一个非常热闹的地方，几千名球迷在为德国和南斯拉夫之间的冰球比赛鼓掌，为来自中欧各国的一些非常优雅的花样滑冰运动员鼓掌。

I feel almost sentimental being here tonight, because just exactly four years ago, i sat on this same bench, surrounded by paul Gallico, westbrook Pegler, and a host of other american writers. at that time -and it seems a long time ago -there was peace and we sat here watching the athletes of the world perform in the winter Olympic Games.
今晚在这里，我感到一些伤感，因为就在四年前，我也坐在这个长椅上，身边是保罗-加里科、韦斯特布鲁克-佩格勒和其他许多美国作家。当时–似乎是很久以前–有和平，我们坐在这里观看世界运动员在冬季奥运会上的表演。

The idea seemed all right to us then -the idea of keeping the nations competing peacefully in sports.
这个想法对我们来说似乎是正确的–让各国和平地进行体育竞争的想法。

The Winter Olympics were to be held here again this year, and i had planned to come down. And i have-only it's different than we expected when we made our first plans last summer.
今年的冬奥会将再次在这里举行，我曾计划到这来。而且我已经来了——只是这与我们去年夏天制定第一个计划时的预期不同。

What's going on here in place of the olympics is a series of winter games but only a handful of nations are represented -Italy, Yugoslavia, Romania, hungary, Slovakia, the Protectorate and germany
这里正在进行的是一系列冬季运动会，但只有少数几个国家有代表参加–意大利、南斯拉夫、罗马尼亚、匈牙利、斯洛伐克、保护国和德国，

And Im here because practically all of the foreign correspondents were transported down here yesterday, and our press conferences have taken place here today instead ofin Berlin.
我在这里是因为几乎所有的外国记者昨天都被送到这里，我们的新闻发布会今天在这里举行，而不是在柏林。

Actually, I must say there was very little news in our press conference here tonight, so I telephoned to berlin for more news, but berlin didnt have any either.
事实上，我必须说，今晚我们在这里的新闻发布会上几乎没有什么新闻，所以我打电话给柏林，希望得到更多的消息，但柏林也没有任何消息。

A lull seems to have set in here after Hitlers speech, and when it is broken, it will probably be only by the beginning of the serious prosecution of this war in the west
在希特勒的演讲之后，这里似乎出现了一种沉寂，而当这种沉寂被打破的时候，可能只有在西方开始认真应对这场战争的时候才会出现。

The German press itself is still talking about the Hitler speech.
德国媒体本身仍在谈论希特勒的讲话。

It records today that, as it puts it, the world has understood Hitler and it says the foreign countries were deeply impressed by the Fuhrer's words, especially his attack on france, his assurance of Germany's huge armaments and the fact that two big powers Russia and italy remain germany' s friends
它们今天的报道是，正如它所说的，世界已经理解了希特勒，它说各国对元首的话留下了深刻的印象。特别是他对法国的攻击，他对德国巨大军备的保证，以及两个大国——俄国和意大利——仍然是德国的朋友的事实。

There is practically no reaction here to Mr. Chamberlains speech little about it is published; and editorially and editorially
这里对张伯伦先生的讲话几乎没有任何反应，关于他演讲的报道很少；在编辑上也是如此，那被称为对中立国施加压力的无理企图。

The German Foreign Office let it be known that it is following closely the proceedings of the Balkan conference which opens in Belgrade tomorrow, but actually the germans say they do not expect any unpleasant-for them -fireworks there
德国外交部表示，它正在密切关注明天在贝尔格莱德召开的巴尔干会议的进程。但实际上，德国人说他们并不期望在那里发生任何对他们来说不愉快的事件。

It's announced that the one-mark nickel pieces are to be withdrawn from circulation by March 1. They' re already being replaced by paper notes. The 5o pfennig pieces of nickel already have given away to new pieces made of aluminum
在3月1日之前，1马克镍币将退出流通。它们已经被纸币所取代。50芬尼的镍币已经被换成了铝制的新币。

And it's also announced that henceforth babies must have clothing ration cards. Heretofore they were exempt and could have as many clothes as their parents could buy
同时，从今天开始，婴儿必须有衣物配给卡。在此之前，他们可以获得豁免，父母能买多少衣服，他们就能买多少衣服。

Berlin and most of Germany is still suffering from the intense cold made worse by the coal shortage,
柏林和德国大部分地区仍在遭受严寒的折磨，煤炭短缺使情况更加严重。

but here in the Alps - strangepenough - it's quite warm.
但在阿尔卑斯山这里——奇怪的是——却相当温暖。

i return you now from Garmisch to CBS in New York
我现在把你从加米施送回纽约的CBS。

（这句话的意思是：CBS的播出信号从德国加米施切换到美国纽约的直播间，纽约直播间的音频没有文字记录，随后，应该是直播间的主持人询问一些问题，信号再次切换回德国加米施）

A few days later Shirerjoined his family in geneva for a couple of weeks. While there he wrote to Ed klauber the top cbs newsman in New york
几天前，希勒与家人一起在日内瓦呆了几个星期。在那里，他给纽约CBS的顶级新闻记者Ed Klauber写信

A line to thank you for the christmas bonus and the raise
感谢你的圣诞奖金和加薪

i didnt want to write about them from berlin. because the germans ever on the watch-out for a spare dollar of foreign exchange, would have devised some way of relieving me of both of them, as soon as they had read my letter
我不想从柏林写这两件事，因为德国人一直在寻找多余的一美元外汇，一旦他们看到我的信，就会想出一些办法来解除我的这两件事。

I note that you, White and Murrow, still think i am doing a useful job in Berlin, though personally i sometimes doubt it.
我注意到，你们，怀特和默罗，仍然认为我在柏林做了一件有用的工作，尽管我个人有时怀疑。

To be sure, I gather our censorship is not quite as fantastic as the French; still, it is bad enough.
可以肯定的是，我知道我们的审查制度并不像法国人那样神奇；但它仍然足够糟糕。

And we have not only political and militar censorship of the radio script, but, what is often worse, censorship of news at its source
我们不仅有对广播稿的政治和军事审查，而且更糟糕的是对新闻来源的审查。

We are not only rarely told anything truthful but are prevented from getting news ourselves.
我们不仅很少被告知任何真实情况，而且还被阻止自己获得新闻。

For instance, we cannot go to Poland to check up on the reports we get from there of German sadism, murder, repression.
例如，我们不能去波兰检查我们从那里得到的关于德国虐待狂、谋杀、镇压的报告。

we indeed have done a bad job on both Poland and czechoslovakia.
我们确实在波兰和捷克斯洛伐克都做得不好。

Organized german murder in both is one of the most disgusting chapters in this war so far
德国人在这两个国家有组织的谋杀是这场战争中迄今为止最令人厌恶的章节之一。

It's interesting that the people where i am are also getting ver touchy about the Leader.
有趣的是，我所在的地方的人们对领袖也变得非常敏感了。

When i left a fortnight ago, otto tolischus Lof The New York Times，was in hot water for having written almosta banal sentence about people shivering and hungering while hitler spoke at the sportpalast
当我两星期前离开时，《纽约时报》的奥托-托利舒斯（otto tolischus）因为写了一个几乎是普通的句子，说“希特勒在体育场讲话时，人们在颤抖和饥饿”，而陷入了困境。

On the whole, i think that if the german offensive develops in the next few weeks, we will be allowed to say very little, if anything If it doesnt develop, censorship will tighten more gradually,
总的来说，我认为，如果德军的攻势在未来几周内有所变化，我们将被允许说那么一点儿，如果这样的话。如果它（战局）不发展，审查制度将逐渐收紧，

but it wil not be long before Berlin will put a“Verbot” on anything “ likely to cause a bad impression in america-an excuse which has been increasingly used for slashing my scripts by the Propaganda Ministry lately
但用不了多久，柏林将对任何 “可能在美国造成不良印象 “的内容贴上“禁止（德语）”标签，进行 “审查”——这是宣传部最近越来越多地用来删改我的稿件的借口。
