W|LDRUMOR ABOUT
WAR IS CIRCULATED
Calls Come To Dispatch For
Confirmation, Which
Is Lacking

SOME Of fhe'wildest kinds of rumors
about the threats of war In europe
circulated in Henderson today, ana
there were frequent calls to the Hen
derson Dispatch office for confirma-
ton. There was no confirmation, and
assurances given appeared to Drlng
relief to anxious inquirers.
One report was that Hitler had de
clared war on Czechoslovakia and
another said fighting between the two
countries had already begun. Other
than encounters between small groups
in the Sudeten German section OF
Czechslovakia, press reports told OF
no such clashes.
There was reliance on Associated
Press reports for actual events trans
piring in Che white-hot central Eu-
rope powder akeg zone. and these
merely told OF the breaking off of
negotiations between the Sudeteas
and the Czech government looking to-
ward a. satisfactory settlement of
their dispute. There was, also, the
story of Hitler bordering his next
move and If King George abandoning
a trip to a funeral to rush back to
London to confer with his ministers
about the situation, as if he mattered
either way.
Many here remembered the prema-
ture Armistice celebrations five days
before the actual signing of that in
strument in 1918 There was no radio
in those days to excite a listening
populace, but private telephone and
telegraph messages brought word OF
the surging throngs in Washington
and New York. But the AP stood pat;
there was no Armistice-not then
not until Monday morning after that
frenized Thursday.
Just the same, popular interest here
conferred in events in Europe, even
transcending the opening of the tobac-
CO market and the attempt to purge"
Senator George of Georgia out of the
United States Senate.

liam street two years ago. Something

The other case is that in which G.

Although mention Of Kitchen
modernization" generally brings to
mind modern gas and electric ap-
pliances, great advances have been
made also in the development Of
kitchen equipment for homes be-
yond power lines and gas mains.
The modern range shown here
uses kerosene for fuel and there
fore can be used anywhere. It is q
porcelain enameled range with five
high-power burners which are said
to create as much heat as the
burners Of q gas range. The burn
ers are concealed back Of a hinged
front-panel which may be left open
or shut while the stove is in use.
Also concealed is the fuel reservoir
which holds two gallons instead Of
the usual one, thus making refuel-
ing necessary only half as often
as with most ranges.
This newspaper is one Of several
hundred in which the Perfection
Stove Company is advertising this
modern oil range in addition to a
large national campaign. The man.
ufacturer said this newspaper was
selected because 1--WE believe your
readers to be vitality interested in

The Perfection company also
makes an oil-burning refrigerator
which harmonizes with the range,
and this is said to be the first time
such matched units" have ever been
made available to rural homes.
