When questioned as to relief figures
in the new budget, he answered dryly
that these would be available jan
uary 3.
He expressed the hope that Georgia
would find some way to cooperate
with the federal government in the
works program. This referred back
to a previous conference in which he
said, very definitely, that Georgia
would not get another cent of federal
money for public works until she paid
her share.

Hitler on the trip to Kufstein.
During the morning, as Munich
prepared for the, most important
conference held in Europe since
that at Versailles 10 years ago,
handbills were posted announcing
"triumphal professions through
the streets of the Fuehrer and
his guests"
Large crowds awaited the ar
rival of Chamberlain and Daladier
at Oherwiesenfeld airport. outside
the city.
Prior to the ceremony at Kuf-
stein, Mussolini was greeted at
Brenner Pass shortly after dawn
by Rudolph Hess, deputy Nazl
party leader, and the Prince Of
Hess. II Duce was accompanied
by his Son-in-law, Italian Foreign
Minister Count Galeazzo Ciano.
Conveniently Housed
In Munich MusSolini again will
occupy the Karl Palace, where he
stayed on his previous visit. Cham
berlain will be at the Regina
Palace Hotel and Daladier at the
Four Seasons Hotel. They will
thus all be convenient to the
Fuehrer House, where the confer
ence will take place.
Nazi troops lined the decorated
streets in honor of the British
French and Italian government
heads, but Nazi officials said thai
the conference would be conducted
with as little flag-waving and
trumpeting as possible for an oc
casion of this sort.
Meanwhile, Germans everywhere
were obviously relieved that thu
four major powers had haltec
Europe's rush toward war-for thu
moment at least-by attempting
to iron out their differences
through negotiations.
Glum, anxious faces which coulC
be seen anywhere in Germany dur

extended indefinitely to all intents

When the first arrived IN
Munich, the Fuehrer received an
ovation from the populace, despite
the earliness of the hour, and this
was interpreted as a sign that
Munich, at least, now considers
that all is well.
Meanwhile, foreign circle S
pointed out that when the four
statesmen are seated in the

with all his power to obtain agree

$500, 900 900 idle gold into the nat

of maintaining its cash reserves at

announced today.
The policy of releasing small
amounts from this gold horde was
started last week and will con-

said.
The move was believed to have
been taken in view of the current

talk with M. Daladier concern
ing Italo-French relations and
with Chamberlain regarding the
Mediterranean.
"All four certainly intend, in

to eliminate all future danger in

WOOing Stands Out
Thus the conference seemed to
be off to a favorable start, bat
even the most sanguine observers
could not fail to underestimate
the Importance of Hitler'S obvious
favors to MuSsolini this morning,
granted to the complete exclusion
of Chamberlain and Daladier.
Hitler carried his hospitality to
II zee to the furtheSt possible
degree. He saw Mussolini and his
comparatively small staff safely
and comfortably ensconced at the
magnificent Karl Palace, where he
stayed on his previous visit to
Munich.
The Nazi regime went out of its
way, however, to see that the Brit
ish and French delegates were
properly welcomed, even though
the Fuehrer himself was too en-,
crossed with Mussolini to be on
hand.

ent, the conversations will last
late into the night.
"The Czechoslovak problem is
expected to occupy today's en-

full, another meeting is likely to-
morrow, during which all of Eu-
ropes sore spots will be sur

20 Kilometers Limit
IF German troops go all the
way, the deepest point, with one
exception, will be 40 kilometers
into Czechoslovakia, and the
average will be 10 or Is.
"The Godesberg memorandum
remains the basis that must be

though Germany is willing to
listen to reason on questions OF
procedure.
Beyond the fact that imme-
date Czech evacuation must
take place everywhere, it is our
understanding that France is al
ready proposing symbolic
march by German troops, enao-
ling immediate occupation OF
Asch and Eyer, the remainder
following by progressive stages.

Is that British, French and 1tal-

a peaceful settlement of the Su-
detenland problem.
Nazi circles indicated the fol,
lowing as bargaining points the
Fuehrer is ready to offer.
4 He is held certain to agree
lie to an extension of his Oc-
tober / deadline for Sudeten-
land occupation if his three con-
ferees agree to force President
Edouard Benes to get his troops
and police out of there.
8 He will have no objection
AO to dispatching an interna-
tional police force into the Su-
deten territories to maintain
order and supervise any plebis-
cites that are held in various
districts.
Well-informed sources suggested
that such a police force might be
composed of British, French and
Italian troops.
To Enter Other Fields
But that Hitler himself is pre-
pared to extend the confab into
other fields where European rela
tions have been precarious in the
past was strongly indicated by q
well-informed spokesman.

gay and smiling. He DOTTED his
hat and waved at the assembled

pleasure out of reviewing the

him.
