Warden H. H. Wilson said Bowser

The Negro was the 211th person put

seth victim of gas and the 169th
Negro executed.
Bowser entered the death chamber
at 1898 a. m. After telling the war
den, "Yes, I'm going home to my
Lord" when asked if he had a final
word to say. The gas was switched
on at 1925. Gas was administered II

nounced the man dead.
There were no Halifax county wit
nesses, but Sheriff M. Page and J. r.

Cession Of Large Ter

Budapest, Hungary, Oct. 28.-(AP)
Hungary and Czechoslovakia APP
peared today to be on the way to
peaceful settlement of their long
standing, often threatening territorial
disputes.
The Budapest government, in new
note last night, accepted the Czecho-'
slovakia offer to cede to Hungary
about 1850 square miles of land with
predominantly Hungarian populations
Hungary also agreed that military
experts should meet immediately to
organize Czech evacuation and I1urs-
garian occupation of the areas, and
that a German-Italian arbitration
commission should deal with eight dis
puted districts.
Czechoslovakia has demanded that
the mediators settle the entire dispute
and fix time for the. occupation
of the whole area demanded by Hun
gary.
Diplomatic circles believe, however
that this would be no major obstacle,
because German and Italian mediators
would be likely to permit Hungary
to occupy the undisputed regions as
soon as the committees were formed.

rotary of State Cordell Hull ought to
be the best Democratic bet. Alone

Naziis Expel
Polish Jews
In Germany
Some Routed from
Beds Before Dawn To
Be Returned to Their
Own Country

Berlin, Oct. .-(AP)-Authorita-
tive informants said today that the
Nazi government already had sent
several thousand Polish Jews living in
Germany back into Poland following
a nationwide roundup.
In Berlin alone several hundred
Polish Jews were routed from their
beds in early morning raids, semi
officially explained as intended to
forestall application of new Polish
law that might deprive thousands of
Jews in Germany of Polish citizen
ship.
The German government estimated
that 100000 residents of Germany are
Polish citizens. According to a Polish
law, coming into effect October 80,
all these by that date must have their
passports re-validated by Polish con-
Sulates.
Jewish circles estimated that the
law applied to between 1000 and g.
600 Jews in Germany.
Failure to obtain such re-validation
will mean that the passport holder
never again can enter Poland The
Polish Embassy in Berlin Immediately
consulted authorities regarding the
raids. Polish authorities explained
that the new Polish law requires ex-
animation of all cases of Poles living
abroad to determine to what extent
they still should be considered Polish
citizens.
Only men were held. Hundreds of
Jewish women lined up outside two
Berlin police barracks hoping to see
their relatives. The women were per-
mitted to leave battered suitcases,
blankets, food and cigarettes for the
prisoners, but were not allowed to see
