BRITAIN AND FRANCE
READY FOR ACTION

the gravest situation faced since
the summer days of 1914.
Frances Mediterranean and At
lantic fleets were under steam
with all leaves of men and officers
cancelled, ready to sail on mo-
mcnt'S notice.
The French government APP
pcaled to Britain late yesterday,
through Ambassador Charles An
DIRE Corbin, to come out with
flat announcement to the world
and specifically to Hitler, of course
that Britain will fight at the
side Of France if Germany makes
any aggressive move toward the
CZcchS.
The stiffening of the Anglo
French attitude against Germany
was reported resented by Hitler.
A high Nazi diplomat in Nurem-
berg said Der Fuehrer might be
impellei to proclaim some bold
course of action toward Czecho-
Slovakia.
The French appeal for forth
right British declaration Of this
country's readiness to fight was
said to be based on very disqulet-
ing reports of German military
movements" reaching the French
high command.
The one ray Of hope piercing
the steadily deepening gloom came
from Prague where it was an
nounccd that a three-day deadlock
in negotiations between the Sude-
ten German minority and the gov
eminent on minority reform had
been broken.
An amicable agreement was
reached, it was announced, in set
Element of alleged Czech police
"brutalities" at Misunderstanding
and negotiations will be resumed
Saturday at II a. m.
The breaking of the Prague
deadlock was believed to have
been due in part to the advice Of
Hitler, said to have regarded a
continuing breakdown as "unta-
vorable" to the Sudeten demands
The ships of Britain's first mine
sweeping flotilla which will be
brought to full strength under the
admiralty'S orders are the Hebe,
Hazard, Sharpshooter, S!amander,
Hussar, Speedwell and Niger.
The four mine-laying destroyers
which will be brought from re,
serve and commissioned IN full
fighting trim are the Versatile
Vimy, Vortigern and Walker:

to hide the gravity of the situa-
ton which enveloped all Europe
today.

manded stringent assurances OF
law and order before greeting
To resume minority talks.
The government radio station
in Prague announced in German
late last night that the govern
ment had showed what contrlbu-
ton it was willing to make FOR
peace" and appealed to the Sude-
tens to collabOrate in finding Il
peaceful minority solution.
Sudeten leaders meanwhile
warned against any undue Opt
miSm regardin gthe restored nego-
tiationS on the basis of the gov
ernment'S last and ultimate
plan published yesterday.
They said they were insisting
upon satisfaction Of Henleln'
eight-point autonomy program
and that the governments plan
fails by wide margin to satisfy
il. although it goes much farther
than any previous government OF
fer because it provides for cali
tonal autonomy.
The government. according to
the Sudctens. has not yet recog-
nized the Sudcten party as the
"excluSivc" political authority
over the Sudctenland border
areas. and offers autonomy only
on the proportional population ba-
sis.
Thus. according to Henlein's
Spokesman. the Sudeten party III
It's own districts would be rcqulr-
cd TO tolerate Sub-minOritleS and
opposing parties such as the anti
Nazi German Social Democrats,
Communists and Jewish groups.
This is incompatible with the
totalitarian home-rule principle to
which Hcnlein has pledged the
party" one Sudcten leader said.

deadlock. similar in wordm" to a
Sudetcn announcement, said:
Premier Hodza received Dep
utieS kundt and ROSche this Fri

the one held during the morning
regarding the MaehriSch-O Strau
incident. The incident was COM
pletely liquidated and thereby
confirmed that the hindrance
which caused a temporary inter
ruption of negotiations had been
removed. Hodza gave both repre-
sentativeS the information on the
incidents. whereafter the repre-
SentativeS of the Sudeten German
party told Hodza that the party
will continue negotiations on the

RESOLUTIONS OF SYMPATHY
from
WOMAN'S MISSIONARY UNION
Of HENDERSONVILLE

We, the women OF the MlSSlOh-
ary Union of Hendersonville, de-
side to express our deep and sym.
pathy to the bereaved family OF
Mrs. J. Elem Brooks, over the
passing of this noble woman TO
the land from which no traveller
ever returns.
She was a devoted Christian
woman, a member of the First
Baptist church since her youth;
where her days were spent in the
service for her church and her
Lord.
She was the President of the
Missionary Union of the City, and
served this organization faithfully
in this and other offices from It's
organization until the loving heav-
emily Father called her, to
To come up higher, faithful one,
Your work on earth is done.
To review in detail the long
and valuable service she has rem
dered to her Lord would be al
most impossible. Paramount Of
all interests Of this noble woman
was her work and thoughts for
the children of the Sunday School
and the community.
She contributed largely to the
civic well-being of her town and
county as well as to its spiritual
uplift.
Music being one of her accom-
plShmentS, she has done much for
the youth along this line of work.
She was a woman whose char
acter and works are to be admired
and emulated. As we pay tribute
to her beautiful memory today,
we think we can see her:
At home in d beautiful mansion of
fair,
That stands in the valley of rest,
so fair, g..
Some day, some time, when our
task is done,
With JOY we hope to meet her
there.
In that wonderous land free from
! SORROW and pain,
She will wait in her beautiful
doorway,
To bid us welcome again.
/ In her passing, our Missionary
Union has lost one of its most de-
voted. valuable and consistent
members. for
Others burdens she helped to
bear,
Others sorrows she help to share,
Others cares she helped to tighten,
others lives she helped to brighten
/ Therefore, be it resolved, that a
copy of this expression of sympa,,
thy be placed in the records OF
this Missionary Union. and one be
sent to the bereaved family OF
our beloved member, whose Serv'
ice was rich and full of labor fol

WHENEVER your partner bids
suit in response to your opening

general practice Of bidding again.
Try another suit if you can, or q
rebid of your original suit, or pos

even if your partner had passed
