This opportunity came when two

Chinese could not overlook, for the

Lost Columbian Case.
The board lost the Columbian case
before the Circuit Court at Chicago
which held. despite a board order to
the contrary, that the striking en-
ployes completely severed the en-
ployment relation because they had
struck in violation Of contract, and
thereby ended all obligation of the
company to bargain with union repre-
sentatives. The board had held the
refusal to bargain after the strike
was an unfair labor practice and had
ordered the reinstatement of $50
strikers.
The Circuit Court said the COM
pany had engaged in AN open, defiant
flouting of the law" but that the
employees. because OF their own action,
were barred from obtaining relief
under the Wagner Act.
The third labor case the court

directing the Sands Manufacturing
Co. of Cleveland to reinstate several
employees. In that case a Circuit
Court ruled that the company had
sincerely endeavored over long period
to negotiate differences with the
Mechanics Educational Society o1
America. and had suspended negotia-
tions only after the union had taken
action which in effect was equivalent
to strike

to bargain with the union. Reinstate-
ment of 48 employees was ordered.

sources said today that Adolf Hitler

parts of its national defenses by mill.
tary occupation of the Sudetenland
had begun pressure to reduce what Il
left of the republic to the status Of &
vassal state.
These informants asserted Berlin
had limited it would forego further
military encroachment only If the
Prague government speedily broke al
liances with France and Soviet Russia
and adopted a policy Of complacence
toward being drawn into the German
orbit.
They said Berlin already had for
warded an indirect demand that the
government OF the republic follow its
autonomous Slovak unit in outlawine
the Communist party.
Strong Economic Tie Aim.
The Czechs said Germany was seek
ing q strong economic tie, possibly a
customs union, graphing Czechoslo-
vakia to the Reich. Further, Ger
many wants an understanding that
German troops might pass through
Czechoslovak territory in the event of
a war in Eastern Europe, these sources
asserted.
Also, it was said. Berlin desires that
Prague adopt policy sufficiently anti
Jewish to prevent any anti-Nazi ac-
tivities by Jews in the republics ter
ritory.
In return for all these concessions
Germany was said to be ready to allow
Czechoslovakia to exist and enjoy
enough independence to assure linguis-
tic and cultural freedom and greater
civil liberty than exists in Germany,
provided Prague curbed any internal
movements opposing Germany in any
manner.
Strong Resistance Likely.
The Czech informants said the new
German pressure would meet with
strong resistance by the Czech people
in spite OF the desperate nature of
their situation This has been made
worse than ever by the German
Armys occupation of the NTH zone,
which included important portions of
the Czechoslovak Notifications system.
However, 1t was said that under the
