the Australian sheep country to leave q
dingo fence gate open.
-
The black fellows of Australia. while
they half starve their dingoes do not
often kill them for bounty money as do
the white hunters. 1t appears that they
have a superstition to the effect that
the owner OF large collection Of din
goes has better chance of salvation and
will enjoy fuller protection when he
passes into the next world.
new worry has come to the Aus
tralians in recent years. A number of
Alsatians which were imported into the
country turned to the wilds and have
interbred with the wild dingoes The
Alsatian, often called a police dog in
the United States, is a heavier and much
more savage creature than the dingo.
1t is feared-and observation of a num-
Der Of incidents has supported the sppre-
hension-that the mixture OF Alsatian
blood is producing far more dangerous
animal than the pure dingo or the dingo
crossed with other European breeds.
That dingo- Alsatians may prove as dan
gerous to man as wolves are in some
countries Is not wholly unfounded
dread
There never has been any definite set
tlement OF the question of the dingos
origin. The fact that fossil dingo bones
have been found in Pleistocene deposits
has caused one group of scientists to in
sist that the dingo is indigenous and.
mayhap, an older inhabitant Of Australia
than man. Others insist that the dingo
is a cousin Of the pariah dog of India
and the Malay Peninsula and must, at
some remote date. have been an impor-
tation.

Naxis Threaten Czech Planes.
~ Radio to The Star.

BERLIN, Aug. 5.-The weather went
from bad to worse both literally and
flguratively In Central Europe today,
the Nazis threatening to fire in the
future on Czech military planes vio-
lating the frontier, along with q new
surge In the heat wave from which
this part of the world is suffering too.
The NaM newspapers fiatly reject
the answer attributed here to the
Czech government In q reply to the
German protest of yesterday against
violations of the frontier by Czech
military planes.
There are only two possible explana-
tons Of the allegedly frequent vio-
lations Of the frontier by Czech army
planes, the Voelkischer Beobachter
says. Either the Czech explanations
are true and the pilots really had. lost
their way, or the Czech explanations
are untrue and the violations are
deliberate.
If the pilots really lost their way.
the paper says, then "Csechoslovakia
has the worst military air force in the
world" and Is manned by half idiots. :"

:CZECHS PLANNING
:. BIG CONCESSIONS
Compromise on Autonomy
for, Sudetens Impossible,
They Say, However.
BY M. w. FODOR.

& by M. W. FODOA.
Chicago Daily News Foreisn Correspondent.
PRAHA, Aug. 5.-Viscount Runci-
: man resumed his explorations As Brit
ish unofiicial adviser today after con-
ferences last night with four repre-
sentatives Of the sudeten- German
party. Czech ofacial quarters expect
that the Britisher will proceed with
his mission impartially and Will not
ask one-sided concessions from the
government.
A violent German press campaign
against Czechoslovakia has accom-
panied Lord Runciman's efforts to-
ward . settlement Of the Sudenten
German issue-a somewhat ominous
sign which. however, may be Of tac-
teal nature. Czech oficials. however,
intend to keep cool In the face OF
these German attacks.
Ready for Concessions.
While the government Is prepared
70 give wide concessions to the Ger
mans, 1t is again emphasized here
that on the question Of territorial au-
tonomy no compromise Is possible
Though Lord Runciman's real inten-
ton and final program are not yet
known, it is believed in responsible
quarters that his order Of procedure
viii be to discuss first such questions
Is will lead to q compromise. But
unbridgeable issues such as the prob
lem of theology or liberation of Nazi
regime within the democratic republic
on which no compromise Is consid-
cred possible-will be left out Of the
agenda.
Compromise Hoped For.
Czechoslovakia's new nationality
statute and language law will be dis
cussed first by government officials and
Sudeten Germans, representatives
aided by the good Offices of Lord Run
ciman. On these questions the gov
eminent hopes to attain a compromise
80 per cent in favor of the Sudeten
Germans.
A second group of questions to be
discussed will cover the subject Of
administrative autonomy, on which,
It is believed, compromise is not as
feasible as on the first group.
At the same time renewed German
propaganda causes uneasiness in GER
tain quarters. This has not taken
the Czechs by surprise. but is never
theless disagreeable in the present
1uncture.
Wilson Stays Till Tomorrow.
Hugh Wilson. American Ambassa-
dor to Berlin. who is in Praha as the
guest of American Minister Wilbur j.
Carr, Is going. to stay until tomorrow.
It Is denied that Mr.. Wilson has
any mission whatsoever. 1t is . prac-
tice introduced by Mr.. Carr when he
was Assistant Secretary of State at
Washington that American Ambassa-
dors and Ministers in neighboring
states should have frequent exchanges
Of opinion.
Mr.. Wilson will have no oppor-
tunity to see Lord Runciman but will
call tomorrow on Foreign Minister

tesy.

Distinctive Modem Furniture
Desiqned by Americans

better pieces. 1t is a dress up for Itle
more refined types of maple design.
Crude early California designs IN
highly decorative finishes are DEL
initely out of the picture except IN
the low price brackets. The sT9ia3
in architecture away from the
Spanish types to English, French
and Colonial has been to an extent
responsible for the wan:ng popular
ity of so called Monte rey.
Plain broadloom stu holds the
center of interest in floor coverings,
despite the introduction last season
of delicate all-over effects. Texture
is strong and lends itself for use
equally we'll with modern or 18th
century furniture. This season rug
mills have created a nuilDer of new
classical as we'll as modern designs,
but distribution of thes' has been
very small compared witt plain tex
tured floor coverings.
The popularity of the new Amerl-
can modern has brought back tap
estry Weaves which are largely
roughly textured. Color is used free
ly in lovely contrasts, but the colors
themselves are seldom sharp. Almost
invariably you will find them soft
ened. Pastel tones this season are
of outstanding Importance.
Pile fabrics as velours and mo-
hairs remain in large demand. The
colorings of rust and green which
have held a dominant position for
many seasons, are being strongly en-
reached upon by blues and wine
tones. Here again, the tones must
be subdued.
Each season comes and goes with
its sparkling challenge to the house
holder. Each year seems to more
nearly approach the ultimate III
smart furniture designing, but it
remained for 1888 to eclipse all pre-
.vious efforts. A real style has now
been developed which will eventually
be accorded a definite place in fur
niture history.
