PEACE REPORTED
German Party Spokesman
Say Rodza Is Opposed
in Own Ranks.

By the Associated Press.
PRAHA, Czechoslovakia, June 49,
A Sudeten German party spokesman
said today Premier Milan Hodza prob
ably has run into opposition from
within his own ranks regarding the
governments minorities statute, now
In the making.
I'VE still have no idea of what the
proposed statute contains" said the
spokesman for the party, which repre-
sents most of Czechoslovakia's $780,
900 Germanic minority, but the re-
peated postponements of its publica-
tion indicate Premier Hodza is en-
countering opposition among his own
colleagues"
In official quarters it was denied
that the premier was opposed by his
colleagues in the coalition govern
ment. The minorities statute, it was
said, sis almost completed" and there
was said to be full agreement in the
cabinet on all points.
Next week discussions will be ar
ranged between Premier Hodza and
representatives of Hungarian and Pol
ish minorities. BY the end of June
the statute will be ready for consid-
Grafton by Parliament, the govern
ment said.
The statute had been expected to be
given to the Sudeten Germans last
Tuesday after weeks of preparation.
Now there is some talk of handing
draft Of the proposed statute to the
Sudeten Germans next week.
The Sudeten German spokesman
emphasized his party was convinced
of the sincerity of the premier's ef-
forts to achieve compromise between
the Sudeten German demands for q
measure of autonomy and Czecho-
slovak demands for maintenance of
complete security and integrity of the
Czechoslovakian state.
