called for a worldwide agreement
to cease for all time attacks on
civilian populations by air-bombing
and by gas"
He reviewed the United States
role in the German Czech crisis
and disclosed for the first time that
prior to President Roosevelt's sec
ond appeal to Chancellor Adolf
Hitler, the state department had
received information of unques-
toned authenticity that two
o'clock of the afternoon of Wednes-
day, Sept. %, had been fixed for
the entrance of the German armies
in Czechoslovakia."
1t was this information, he said,
which prompted the chief executive
ito dispatch his second personal
v.Aote to Hitler, which reached Ber-
lin a few hours before the zero
hour
Welles emphasized that it was
not necessary to pass upon the
merits of the Munich decision. The
important point, he said, is that
war was averted through means OF
negotiation.
To-day, perhaps more than at any
time during the past two decades,
there is presented the opportunity
for the establishment by the ma
tlons of the world - a new world
order based upon justice and upon
law" he continued. peace is not

momentary abstention from resort
to war. Peace is, in its very es-
sence, positive.

with all county funds.

will mean that virtually every county
will turn to the state for grants-in-aid.
And the public welfare fund Is ade-
quate to carry the burden only for
"a very short time" DR.. Potter said.
Also he pointed out that grants-in-
aid can be used only for direct relief.
There is no provision by which the
state can give grants for other items
in county poor funds, such as the
county hospital, health department
and contributions to state institutions.
The opinion from the attorney gem

Serious complications may arise
from an attorney generals opinion
IN regard 90 counties issuing regis
tered warrants against anticipat0ry
revenue for their poor funds, DIR.
Peter Potter Of Butte, chairman Of
the state welfare board said.
The opinion from the attorney gen.
erals office was given In response
to O request from William r. Taylor,
Deer Lodge county attorney.
The opinion held that registered
warrants not representing cash on de-
mand may not be issued In payment Of
relief. It further held that when cash
in county poor funds Is depleted, and
there are no transfers OF surpluses
from other funds, the state must make
grants in-atd to those counties.
DR.. Potter said that II the opinion
prevails as law, practically all Of Mon
tana's 56 counties viii be unable to
issue warrants on their poor funds and
win turn TO the state public welfare
fund for grants-in-aid.

site Annapolis and almost in the
geographic center, north and
south, of the Eastern Shore. BY
road and water 1t Is go or 10 miles
from Washington, using the Mata.
peake Ferry from Annapolis.
There are longer alternative
routes to Denton-by the other
ferries, or by highway to Havre
de Grace and around the winding
roads south through Delaware and
back into Maryland. Denton is
not on any main highway either
east and west or north and south.
From the end Of the Matapeake
Ferry the main highway takes the
traveller east to Queen Anne, where
a subsidiary road runs several
miles to Denton, on the Choptank
River.

Bridge Is Bait

Lewis managers regard the Nor
gantown bridge as the bait which
may conceivably catch the South
ern Maryland vote, since it would
give that area a new outlet to
Virginia and end its existence as
a dead-end peninsula with high
way outlets only to the north and
no way to reach Virginia or the
Eastern Shore except by water.
Some time Sunday afternoon or
early evening the Presidential
party will board the yacht Poto-
mac for a night on the Bay.
Monday morning the President
and his seagoing generals and aides
will debark at Crisfield, at the
southern tip Of the State on the
Eastern Shore, and drive from
there to Denton. He is to speak
at Denton at 2 o'clock.

over autonomy demands of the
sudeten Germans today appeared
to have dissolved-for the time be-
ing at least-in Q welter Of
official conferences that gave
promise Of continued European
peace.
Chancellor Hitler, at his Ber.
chtesgaden mountain retreat, was
represented as having expressed
an unqualified desire" for con.
tinued negotiations toward peace.
full settlement of the problem.
After conferring with Konrad
Henlein, the Fuehrer sent the SUI
deten party leader back to Czecho-
slovakia to advise the Prague gov.
ernment and the British mediator,
ViScount RuncIman, that peace
and not war Is wnat Germany
wants.
BARS POSTPONEMENT
At the same time Hitler made
it clear that he regards as eS-
sential a Practical" solution Of
the question before the end Of this
year.
Henlein was instructed to In
form all concerned that there is
no time for empty promises or
dilatory diplomatic tactics" and
that no plan would be acceptable
which tended to postpone ultimate
settlement Of the minority queS-
tion.
In the opinion Of well.informed
quarters, this meant the final
death and burial of the proposals
advanced by President BeneS Of
Czechoslovakia for q three-months
truce.
It also declared that any &C
ceptable plan would have to be
drawn up within the frame work
Of the eight demands laid down
by Henlein several months ago
at Carlsbad, and that it must be
fundamentally satisfactory to
the rights and expectations Of the
SudetenS."
GET NEW CHANCE
As the situation now stands,
the Czech government apparently
has been given q chance to at
tempt once more to draw UP .
proposition which the SudetenS
and Hitler will accept. Mean.
while, it seems likely the threat
Of drastic measures against
Czechoslovakia by Hitler during
the Nazi party congress ut Nu-
remberg, opening next week, has
been removed.
If all these efforts fail, how
ever, 1t Is expected Hitler in the
end will notify the world that
"the time has come when the
Sudeten issue must be settled by
the German Reich"
