Hungary In
Protest To
The Czechs

Budapest, Hungary, Sept. 16.--(AP)
"A reliable source said today that
Hungary had protested to Czechoslo-
valTa against what was termed Czech
slovak mobilization along the Hum
garian frontier. It was said the Hun
garian government probably would
take measures to meet the situation
although a foreign office official said:
Hungary will exercise good deaf
of patience to remain neutral should
an armed conflict start between Ger
many and Ckechoslovakia.'
1t was pointed out that only three
weeks ago Hungary was permitted
formally to scrap the military clauses
of the World War peace treaties and
re-arm. Consequently, it was believ-
ed the country is not ready to enter
war, although it is generally be-
lieved that remarkable progress to-
ward rearmament has been maIe in
recent months.
Citizens of Budapest showed anxiety
partly because the Czechoslovak
frontier is only 40 miles distant.

Prague, Czechoslovakia, Sept. To-
(AP)-SourceS close to the Czecho-
slovak government said today it hal
approved preliminary steps for dis
solution of the storm troops sof
Sudeten Leader Konrad Henlein, who
has fled before a government decision
to arrest him for treason.
At the same time, the regional gov
eminent of the province of Bohemia
ordered a 24-hour time limit in which
all residents of SO provincial political
districts must surrender all arms and
munitions they may have stored in
secret places.
These steps came as strikes, sabot-
age and bloodshed stalked the
Sudeten region.
Premier Lodza, in conference with
the cabinet, was said to have approx
ed the preliminary steps for dissolu-
ton of Henlein's uniformed corps.
Informed sources said, however, the
government had not completed its lis
solution decree.
The Bohemian government provid-
ing from one month to five years for
failure to obey the order to surrender
arms.
Henlein's manifesto yesterday de-
handing German annexation of Su-
detenland, President Benes' order
adjourning Parliament and the de.
parture of the British unofficial
mediator, Viscount Runciman, for
London apparently ended negotiations
for peace in the long-standing SUI
deten-Czechoslovak dispute.
Czechoslovak circles derived some
satisfaction from the fact Viscountess
Runciman and members of the Bri-
fish mission remained in Prague.
Report from the Sudeten region told
of one new incident. details of which
were not confirmed Immediately in
official quarters. Sudeten Germans
were said to have demonstrated at a
point near Falkenau, resulting in a
clash with police and Czech troops.
Two or three soldiers were said to
have been killed.

The highly controversial wage and hour la" ID a'
last on the statute books 1t is the most important
legislation of the congress just adjourned.
1t is probable this measure will continue to be
highly controversial until the United States su-
preme court finally passes upon its constitutions

For that same question of consttutlonallty,
which has bothered much of the legislation OF the
present administration was raised vigorously even
during the final moments of the consideration OF
the bill.
There may be little purpose in discussing tins
question of constitutionaGty here and now, for 1t
will probably be brought before the proper tribunal
for determination before long.
At the same time we cannot help wondering
about it little
Where, indeed are we going to be able to fix a
stopping place in this business of regulating and
regimenting the lives and activities of the Ameri-
can people?
1t will probably be generally agreed that the
governmental and economic and industrial condi-
tions existing under Russian Sovetsm and Ger
man Nazism could not by any stretch OF the imagl-
nation be made constitutional in America under
our present basic law.
But
If it is constitutional for the government to SET
a minimum for wages at 25 and 30 cents an hour
for different sections of the country, and to set
limits on the time men and women may work tor
those wages it will certainly be just as constltu-
tional to go the limit in fixing anything or every
thing which Edward Bellamy envisioned in his So
cialistic book of generation ago, Looking Back

If little regimenting, little fixing, is constitu-
tional, then complete RECOMMENDATION can be no less
