LONDON, March 16 GN.S0.
Chancellor Hitler'S conditional &C
ceptance of the League Of Nations
Councils invitation to come to Lon
don to debate the Rhineland crisis
should be considered a refusal,
Foreign Minister Pierre Etienne
Flandin told the council today.
A number of other speakers at
a secret session of the Counsil were
understood to have backed Flandin
in opposing acceptance Of the Ger.
man reply.
Maintaining adamant opposition
to inviting Germany to London on
the Hitler terms, Flandin repeated
the French thesis that the Hitler
peace plan cannot be discussed
while Reich troops still are in the
Rhineland.
Problem is Grave
Hitler'S reply had asked for dis
cussion of his peace proposals sin
due course" This was the crux Of
the problem, one of the gravest the
League ever has tackled.
Fqandin's declaration was made
in a statement he read to a 25-
minute private meeting of the
council, attended by the various
delegations batteries of experts
and advisors. The meeting had
been opened by Stanley Bruce Of
Australia, council president, who
read the text of the German reply
to the councils invitation.
Following the private meeting,
a secret session was held at which
even the experts were excluded,
Europe's leading diplomats "get-
ting down to brass tacks" behind
locked doors to decide what to
do now about the Reich, Hitler's
surprise provisional reply having
created a new crisis and new prob
lens.

VERDUN, France, March 16 Il.
N. SO-The army general staff,
seeking absolute security for
France in these anxious days is
rushing work on a northward ex-
tension of the famous Maginot
line of fortification on the eastern
frontier, it was learned exclusively
today.
Instead of resting with the lines
end at Longulon, north of Verdun,
the staff has ordered construction
work to proceed night and day to
add forts in the sector between
the city Of Longuyon and the viii
lage of Laferte, which is Is miles
farther to the northwest, almost
touching the Belgian frontier.
Still ApprehenSive
This rush job to protect one Of
Frances vulnerable flanks leaves
the army command still appre-
hensive, nevertheless, so long as
Frances Notifications have not
extended to the sea, and so long
as Belgium has been unable to
afford the costly prolongation Of
the Maginot Line through her
territory.
The former terminus of the
Maginot Line, practically i'm
pregnable string of forts running
from the Swiss border north, was
at Longwy, an important French
border village at the junction OF
Belgium and Luxembourg.
Now, as a result of the new eX-
tension work, the underground
fortresSes stretch protectingly
northwest across the Lorraine
Hills until they reach Cutrey,
three miles from Longwy, thence
sharply to the southwest to the
crest overlooking Longuyon.

BERLIN, March 16.-Regard-
ing the situation as still very
grave" the German military staff
has completed its plan of strategy
in case of a sudden attack in
the Rhineland, it was learned
today from sources close to the
high command.
German garrisons in the Rhine
area will fall back out of range
of the powerful guns in the
French Notifications, because the
Reich lacks a similar Iron
front" such as the Hindenburg
Line of 1918, a military authori-
ty said.
In the opinion of the general
staff, according to this informant,
it would be poor strategy to
weaken the German defense links
would be ineScapable.

Talk to Prisoner
in Death House

TRENTON, N. j., March 16
ON.S0-Gov. Harold G.. Hoffman
will ask DR.. John F. "JafSie" Con
don to accompany him to the
State prison death house here to
confront Bruno Richard Haupt,
mann, a close aide Of the COVER
nor disclosed today.
"Jafsie" is due to arrive in New
York from Panama on the liner
Santa Inez tomorrow, Arrange
mentS will be made to bring the
famous Lindbergh ransom inter.
mediary and the Jersey chief
executive together as soon as
possible.
To Quiz Jafsie
The meeting probably will take
place in New York this week and
may determine Hauptmann's fate,
the governors aide declared. He
said:
"The governor intends to ask
DR.. Condor to go to the death
house to talk to Hauptmann.
"And he will have some very
important questions to ask Con-
don. In fact, this meeting be.
tween the governor and 'Jafsie'
will be Of greater Importance
than anything since the Lind
bergh murder investigation was
reOpened.
MAY CHANGE CASE
"GOvernOr Hoffman has never
made public the things he really
wants to learn from Condor. He
has mentioned several 'discrep-
ancieS' he wants cleared up,
but he has never even hinted at
what he really wants to ask Con-
dOn-and nobody has guessed.
eff Condor can supply GER
tain information the whole as
pect of the case, as it now stands,
will be changed"
Those who know DR.. Condor
feel certain he will speedily COM
ply with the request to face
Hauptmann. The belligerent
Bronx educator has confronted
the doomed man on three other
occasions since his arrest for the
murder of Baby Lindbergh.

Thriving mama plants, such as is alleged to have furnished food for the 1Sraelites in the wilder ness, squaghett plants which are native in Africa, apple trees with rapidly maturing fruit, summer squash now ready to eat and Eng fish broad beans 9 inches long, are a few of the things growing in Anchorage gardens. The mama plant has a broad leaf which grows in punches. Underneath the surface are many small tub- CTS which have a taste similar to almonds. Someone must have their biblical lore mixed up, as we always understood the mama descended from the heavens.

Dubonnet Color
 Fashion Light
 In New Styles
(Bv The Associated Press1

tBv The Associated Pressl
 NEW YORK, Oct. IT, - Du- bonnet, the glorious, deep red color inspired by the grape, seems to be headed for another trium- phant winter season as queen of the winter spectrum.
 It isn't exactly a debutante in the world of fashion. Dubonnet "came out" with great eclat two years ago. But recently it stepped forth in a second debut more dazzling than the first.
 Taking their cue from the Paris passion for vintage shades, Shenley Import Corporation, im- porters of Dubonnet, the famed French wine, staged a Dubonnet Fashion Show in their Moderne Room on 10th Street, New York. Present were fashion editors, de- signers, illustrators and represen tatives of leading manufacturers.
 Seventeen beautiful models gave the assembled critics a pre- view of the gorgeous new crea tions in Dubonnet color that will be available to fashion-wise women this fall and winter. The gowns and wraps on display re- presented eight of the leading dress houses of New York re- gistered with the Fashion Origin ator's Guild and five leading hous es of the KnitWear Institute.
 The new fall Dubonnet shade is a bit deeper in color than the summer version. Fabrics on par ade at the Fashion Show ran the gamut from the hubby knitwear to pin-dotted changeable taffeta, and the silhouttes ranged from pencil slim sports skirts to the f1aringest evening gowns.
 Too, there were portrait gowns of crush-resisting velvet with low V front decolletage, puff sleev es and slim, form fitting waist lines-long capes and wraps of velvet, with matching and con- trasting frocks-a stunning even ing ensemble of printed metal cloth that combined Dubonnet with green-a pllm-colored wool en coat with Tuxedo roll collar of skunk worn over a Dubonnet wool dress evening gowns a. glitter with shimmering sequins.

 SEATTLE, Oct. Enthusiastic over the possibility of the devel- opment of tropical Palm Beach resort at Kotzebue, which is con- siderably above the Arctic Circle, being on the Arctic Ocean, above Boring Strait, Delegate Anthony J. Dimond told in Seattle today of his delightful experience at the Northern outpost during re- cent visit there.
 Enroute to Washington
 The delegate is in Seattle en- route to Washington, D. C., where congress will convene in January.
 q was at Kotzebue last Aug ust," the delegate related. 'I  thought before going there the inhabitants of the district must be freezing,but indeed, they were not. I tried the water for bath ing. At Kotzebue the waters of Kotzebue Sound are very shallow and 1 found them as warm as those of lake in Florida.
 Only Slight Tide
 There is only a slight tide. The sun in August shines daily, without overcast skies, for twen- ty-four hours throughout the month. Of course, August is the only month in the year the na- tives bathe. Kotzebue would make a resort for tourists seeking something new. A resort at Rot zebue would be different from the resort at Palm Beach, Flor ida, but that would be all right"
