Europe Is Gripped
In Serious Crisis
Roosevelt Calls In
Hull for Conference on
Situation; u. S. Navy
To Ask Congress for
5000, 600, 900 More for
Expansion at Coming
Winter Session

Washington, Aug. 30.-(AP)-Presi
dent Roosevelt and Secretary of State
Hull conferred this morning. on the
crisis in Europe. Hull, before going to
the White House, talked over with
advisors in the European division of
the State Department latest dis
patches received from European
capitals.
The consensus at the department
was that Europe is passing through
a real crisis, which may come to
head about the time of the German
Nazi party meeting at Nuremberg
within a fortnight
American diplomats in the various
capitals affected by the German
Czechoslovakian tension have been
keeping the STATE Department minute
ly informed of developments.
Hull has resisted the efforts of his
assistants to get him to take short
vacation, and is continuing at his
desk.
The President, who returned to the
capital this morning, was expected
also to discuss the Mexican situation
with the secretary.
After conferrlng with Hull, the
President arranged a long list of ap-
pointments, which would give him an
opportunity to discuss international
and domestic problems with other
government officials.
Other developments:
Admiral William Leahy said after
comforting with the President the
NAVY exDected to ask Congress- for a
$2OO,OOO,OOO increase in funds. This
years regular naval appropriation
was about $546,OOO,0OO, exclusive of a
$16,OO0,OOO deficiency appropriation,
and about $5O,OOO,OOO of public works
funds used for shore construction.
The $2OO,OOO,OOO presumably would be
in addition to the regular appropria-
ton, not Citing the special items
The increase, Leahy said, was due
almost entirely to the added cost of
carrying forward the billion dollar
fleet expansion program.

Britain And
France Seek
Peace Plans
I a k e Emergency
Measures, However,
To Meet Conflict. If 1t
Comes; Will Demand
Hitler Cease Cam
paign of Hate Against
Czechs; Far E a S t
Menacing
(By The Associated Press.)

Great Britain and France took
emergency action today to prevent
war in Europe and at the same time
to meet the conflict if it comes.
Meanwhile, Germany's rebuilt navy
is holding maneuvers in the North
Sea, it was disclosed, while prelimin-
airy army maneuvers continued In
various parts of the country and
Chancellor Adolf Hitler inspected
Notifications along the French and
Swiss borders.
The maneuvers began last Friday
and may last until the middle of Sep
TENDER, the navy ministry said. They
were described as routine" having
no connection with the central Eu-
ropean crisis.
The cabinets of Britain and France,
meeting simultaneously in the midst
of the heaviest war clouds since 1914,
gave unanimous approval to steps al :
ready taken by their foreign minis
tiers and the Czechoslovak crisis, and
agreed on policies to be followed in
the future. These policies were not
disclosed, but it was believed the Bri-
fish ministers decided to make a calm
but firm final demand that Germany
halt the campaign of hate against
Czechoslovakia and cooperate in eff
forts to settle the Czechoslovak
minority problem.
X The French cabinet voted to leng.
then working hours in national de-
Tense industries, public service, and
public safety" industries, and at the
same time gave itself virtual power
to mobilize all French industry if
necessary. The fact that the French
ministers also approved instructions"
to- French ENJOYS abroad indicated
the probability of a strong coordinat-
ed diplomatic action by Britain and
France.
Tension between Germany and
Czechoslovakia, meanwhile, was In
creased by a second German protest
against insults to the imperial Ger
man army by Czechoslovak news
paper. Germany previously had pro-
tested Saturday and demanded that
immediate action be taken to prevent
further "aldner".
Uneasiness also was felt in the Far
East as a result of statement by
Lieutenant General Itagaki, Japanese
war minister, that more clashes be-
tween Japanese and Soviet Russian
forces on the Siberian frontier were
''likely to occur"

st. Matthews, S. c., Aug. 3O-(AP)
Farmers throughout this rich area
of broad cotton plantations figured
today that the new cotton loan rates
would cost them money, and that
many of them were already having a
hard time taking care of farm hands
that acreage reduction had left with
nothing to do.
They took the view that the $50
cents a pound basic loan rate and
the other loans surrounding that
scale would become the price at
which cotton would be pegged for the
season. They said this was a price
at which they would lose money.
