LONDON ACTIVE In
CZECH SITUATION

LONDON, 4 uS- -. II
Great Britain is expected TO re
mind Germany tomorrow Of its
previous warnings that Britain
most likely would be drawn into
any war which might arise over
the Czechoslovak minority prob
lem.
Ii was understood today that rs
the result Of two days of confer
ences involving Prime Minister
Neville Chamberlain, NlScOunt
Hahfax, foreign secretary, and
Sir John Simon. chancellor of the
exchequer, the government had
determined TO make double eff

sion over the demands of the Ger

demands made with the support
of NaZi Germany-fOr autono-
nous government.
First, il was planned TO remind
Germany of Britain's obligations

TO aid CzechoSlovakia against any
attack.
Secondly. the government plan
ned 20 move vigorously to insure
business negotiations between the
CzechoSlovak government and rep
resentativeS of the Sudeten Ger
man party, acting for that por-
ton of the German minority
which favorS autonomy.
LONDON, Aug. 26.-(UP)-
Great Britain last night launched
a drive to solve the CzechOslovak
minority crisis with a warning to
Fuehrer Adolf Hitler that any
Nazi invasion of Czech soil prob
ably would plunge Germany into
war with Britain.
The new diplomatic offensive
brought immediate results in an
announcement at Prague that the
inner political council of the cabi-
net has agreed to offer the Sude-
ten German minority new basis
for negotiation with far greater
concessions.
Foreign Secretary NiScount Hal
flax conferred for two hours with
Frank T. A. Ashton Gwatkin, chief
of the economic section of the for
eign office who returned by air
plane from Prague where he is
aiding British mediation efforts in
the minority dispute.
A plan to lodge direct represen-
tatiOnS in Berlin against continued
Nazi pressure on CzechOslOvakla
was abandoned because of fear
that such positive action might
aggravate Nazi feeling at a time
when all available cooperation
must be mustered. 1t was lndicat-
ed, however, that Hitler would be
asked informally TO curb anti
Czech press attacks.
The warning to Hitler of Bril-
tain's probable role in any con-
flict growing out of the central
European tangle is expected to be
made within few days when the
government-perhaps Prime Min
ister Neville Chamberlain himself
announces a detailed statement
of policy.
II was indicated in London that
the British mediators in Prague

Outstanding among the interna-

is the military and political shakeup
in Germany which has filled Europe
with fear that it presages stiffen-

Ter government.
What at the moment looked like,
and perhaps was, serious crisis was
precipitated by the wedding of War
Minister Werner Won Blomberg to a
Hanoverian lady; as soon as the
newly-married couple had gone to
the island of Capri on wedding
trip, announcement was made that
Won Blomberg had been relieved of
his post The ostensible cause was
said to be the fact that he, the high

old army regulations made it i'm

anced dairy cow rations for econom-
ical milk production. In addition to
this he will explain what uses COW

That Careful Watch was

That the county nurse can be q

best seen by the fact that near

far prevented.
The work of Miss Marion Krog-

communicable diseases and inspection
of school children. Several new cases
of smallpox were reported, but in
general the epidemic has "died down
considerably. A few cases of scarlet
fever were reported and close watch
was kept on schools 80, 60, II and 2
Throat and skin inspections of 1875
children were done in an effort to
catch any early cases of scarlet fever
and to detect any old cases that had
gone without notice.
Arrangements were made with Miss
Dorothy Stander of Brainerd, sup
ervisor of professional and women's
projects, to give Pine county house
keeping and nursing project. Details

the project will be under the direct
supervision of the county nurse.
The big health problem found
among the 200 children who were in
