Nazi officials said early today that

mand an immediate answer to a
request for the fright of self-de-

plebiscite.
The Sudeten delegation will 60

be asked to give direct Eyes" or

Nazi leaders minimized the m
nap character of the Sudeten ul-
timatum to the Prague COVER
nment, calling it demand with
a time limit.
This same explanation was
given March when Germany serv-

German quarters warned that
war hovers over Europe because

demand the right to determine
their own destiny.
The official German news agen-

fleeing across the German border
"to escape from the terror of the
Czech police"
Germany's official attitude to-
ward the Sudeten ultimatum to
the Prague government, demand

BRITISH CABINET IS READY
FOR EUROPEAN EXPLOSION
Preparations Made For
Early Convocation of
Parliament

LONDON, Sept. IA. (UP)-The
cabinet, at its gravest meeting
since the World War, made ready
today for a European explosion.
1t discussed mobilization plans, it
announced that King George was
returning at once to London to
consult with his ministers, and it
was reported to have made ar
engagements for an early extraor-
binary session of parliament.
While the cabinet still was in
session, United States Ambassa-
dor Jos. P. Kennedy arrived at
No. 10 Downing Street, where it
was meeting.
Even before the cabinet met, it
was reported that the defense
ministers and chiefs Of macy, ar
my and air force stats had been
ordered to prepar ecomplete mob
ilization plans ready for instant
use if Germany attacked Czecho-
slovakia.
During the meeting, the formal
announcement was made that
King George would leave Bal
moral castle, Scotland, tonight, to
arrive here tomorrow and begin
consultations with cabinet minis
ters and other leaders.
Then, as the cabinet still sat,
parliamentary circles heard that
orders had been given to prepare
for convocation of an early SEES
sion of parliment--Which had
been schedule to meet Nov. l.
Maj. Clement Attlee, leader OF
the labor party, at once sum-
moned the labor party executives
tives to meet Friday.
Though it was said officially
that the cabinet had not actually
decided to call parliment, it was
learned that an early official an
nouncement was expected.
The formal announcement OF
the kings return meant that the
country was confronted with a
national emergency, for the king
presence is required only because
the government may be faced
with the necessity of deciding
whether to go to war.
The announcement was a plain
intimation to the country that
war was near. Previously, the
king had planned to come here
Friday for the funeral OF his
counsin, Prince Arthur Of Con-
naught, and to return at once to
Scotland.
