Troops in Other
Countries Called
Home by Swiss

Switzerland, tiny nation hitherto
safe among its mountains and lakes
at the corner of Germany, France
and Italy, today called its soldiery
from all over the world to return for
possible defense of their homeland.
In a summons issued by the Swiss
Legation at 2419 Massachusetts, ave-
nue. NV, and inserted in the form
of an advertisement in The Evening
Star, the Swiss government called
on all officers, non-commissioned
officers and privates who are resid-
ing or travelling in the United States
or Canada to return Immediately to
Switzerland, take possession of
equipment wherever deposited, and
proceed to the place of assemblage
of their army units"
At the Legation it was explained
the action is "just precautionary
measure" 1t was estimated that
from 5000 to 10000 Swiss reserves
are in the United States and Cam
ada at present Only few are be-
lieved to be in the Washington area,
it was said.
The men are given no orders how
to make the return trip, but it was
said at the Legation that they
would be reimbursed for their ex-
penses.
The call was ordered by the Swiss
Federal Council, it was stated.

Soviet Military Pact
With Germany Held
Unlikely in Moscow
All Is Calm; MoIotoff Says
Feor Of Aiding Reds Killed
AngIo-French Talks
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MOSCOW, Sept. Rumors
abroad of a possibility that Russia
and Germany will follow up their
non-aggression pact with a military
agreement met with extreme skepti-
cism in informed circles today.
While the foreign colony in Mos
COW heard alarming reports of Eu-
ropean war, the Russian population
was tranquil and 34,0O0,O00 children
went back to school today.
Great Britain and France. says
Premier Vyacheslaff Molotoff, bal
anced their desire for Soviet Russian
help against their fear of strength
ening the Soviet Union and their
fear prevailed.
This was the explanation, in part,
offered last night by the PREMIER
foreign minister for conclusion Au-
gust "a of the Russian-German nom
aggression pact which doomed the
projected Russian British French
mutual assistance pact after more
than four months of negotiation.
The Russian Parliament applaud
ed Molotoff S explanation and unan-
imously ratified the pact with Ger
many, erstwhile bitter opponent Of
the Soviet Union.
Informed quarters in Berlin in
dicated that Russian mission was
on its way there possibly to conclude
a military accord with the Reich.
Molotoff made no mention of this.
Molotoff said it was only after the
Russian government was convinced
that negotiations with Britain and
France were futile that Moscow
turned to Berlin.

hostilities.
What are France and England
doing?" This was frequent ques-
ton.
Raids on Defenseless Towns Denied.
A government spokesman denied
reports by Warsaw radio that the
German airforce was bombing open
Polish cities, including Krakow,
Katowice and Grodnow.
Our planes bombed military OBJ
jectives near these Cities" the
spokesman said, but no attack was
made on defenseless towns or on
the Polish population"
The Berlin radio station announced
the first successful air raid of
German bombing squadron on War
saws military airdrome, Radon.
Three German air units started
from a Silesian town into Poland
this morning, according to the an
nouncement.
The announcer said that heavy,
low-hanging clouds favored the
aerial attack.
Reaching their goal, the planes
dropped their bombs on the Polish
airport, it was asserted. No Polish
anti-aircraft guns went into action.
Returning home, the report said.
the airmen observed Polish troop
movements on Polish railroad
station" which also was successfully
bombed. The entire squadron re-
turned unhampered.
Motor cycles and army cars raced
through the streets of Berlin
throughout the day. Taxicabs were
at premium and civilian traffic
was at minimum. Construction
work on Berlin's enormous building
program continued apparently unin-
terrupted.
Two War Bulletins Daily.
The propaganda ministry an
nounced that two war bulletins
would be issued daily, at noon and
4:30 pm. (6 am. and 1920 am. E..
S. t..
After telling the air force that its
great hour had arrived" Field
Marshal Goering, in his orders, con-
tinued:
"Flyers-In lightning attacks you
will annihilate the enemy wherever
he presents himself for battle or
retreats in full rout! *+
Men of the ground organization
You will be happy conscientiously
to make preparations for attacks
and for the safety of your COM
rades in the air!
"Anti-aircraft artillerymen-You
will bring down every attacker!
"Radiomen-Upon you devolves
the responsibility of insuring the
quick and frictionless cooperation
OF our air force!
Comrades! I look each of you
in the eyes and pledge each of you
to give all for the people and the
fatherland. At your head, our be-
loved Fuehrer; behind you, the
entire German nation united in
National Socialism.
Then there can be but one slogan
for us: Victory!"
Gen. Won Brauchitisch's orders
said: I'm the certainty of our just
cause we enter the fight for a clear
aim: The lasting security of Ger
man folkdom and German living
space against foreign attacks and
claims to power. Forward
with God for Germany
Admiral Raeder stated: The
Fuehrer's call has reached us. The
hour of decision finds us ready to

give our all for the honor, justice
and liberty of our fatherland.
Remembering our glorious ira
dition. we will conduct the fight in
unshakable confidence in our
Fuehrer and in firm belief in the
greatness of our people and the
Reich.
Long live the Fuehrer!"
Methods for the departure of Po-
hsh Embassy officials from Berlin
were being worked out by Polish
and German mission this afternoon,
a Polish Embassy spokesman said.
Ambassador Joseph Lipski still
was in Berlin at pm. g am. E. S.
TD and the hour of the Embassy
staf1's departure was uncertain.
British and French Ambassadors
and their staffs also remained at
that hour.
Fight for Honor.
Hitler's order to his army was
issued at $50 am. ul:3O pm, East
ern day time, Thursday.
The German Army will conduct
a fight for honor and the right to
the life of the resurrected German
people with firm determination, his
command said.
The Polish state has rejected my
efforts to establish neighborly rela-
tions, and instead has appealed to
weapons.
Germans in Poland are the VIC
TINS OF a bloody terror, driven from
house and home.
"A series of border violations, un-
bearable for great power, shows
that the Poles no longer ate willing
10 respect the German border.
Meet Force With Force"
ITO put an end to these insane
lncltations, nothing remains but for
me to meet force with force from
now on.
The German army will conduct
a fight for honor and the right to
the life OF the resurrected German
people with firm determination. I
expect that every soldier, mindful
OF the great traditions of the ex-
ternal German military, will do his
duty to the last.
Remember always that you are
representatives of the National
Socialist great Germany. Long live
our people and Our Reich
The first report of firing was from
citizens of Gleiwitz, but a few miles
from the Polish Silesian border.
They said it was artillery fire.
An almost unbroken line of pack
wagons, artillery, cavalry, trucks
and infantry was to be seen in the
neighborhood of Gleiwitz
Out OF hours of solitary medita-
ton, Hitler mapped his course
today. During the entire crisis. since
his arrival in Berlin August "a. the
Fuehrer had not left the chancellerv
nor had he stepped to the balcony
to greet the crowds thronging in
termittently in the Wilhelmplatz.
The crowds had differed from
those in days past. There had been
no loud "heils" for the Chancellor
nor shouts of Eve want to see our
Fuehrer." The watchers had been
silent, almost pathetic, waiting for
something to break the strain they
were under.
Night after night the Fuehrer had
conferred or deliberated until 4 am.
In darkness and daylight he sum-
moned advisers, experts and aides,
averaging four hours of sleep each
day.
Last night he was reported to
nave entered another period of soli-
tude such as he observed Wednes-
day night after British Ambassador

were reported to have stormed the
customs house at Hochlinden and
the number of casualties was still
undetermined. German border police
were said to have wrested the GUS
toms building from the Poles after
half-hour fight.
Bands of Polish irregulars, sup
ported by regular soldiers, attacked
the railway station at Alte Eiche
West Prussia, DNB reported, and
the German guards responded with
machine-gun fire. A German was
killed and another wounded and the
attackers were said to have fallen
back with an undetermined number
of dead and wounded.
Last "a Hours.
The "a hours which precluded Hit
ler's force with force" order in
cluded:
/. Poland's sensational lack of re.
sponse to a surprisingly moderated
list of Is suggestions for settlement
OF the German-Polish quarrel. Ger
many expected at least that Poland
would send negotiator to Berlin
but the Poles showed not the slight
est interest in the Fuehrer's de-
mands.
Warsaw spokeSmen said Hit
ler's proposal for return of Dan
zig to Germany and plebiscite
among the people of Pomorze,
the Polish Corridor, to decide
the question of reunion with
Germany were unacceptable. Po-
land, they said, insists on full
restitution of her curtailed rights
in DanzigD
2. Departure of the Polish fleet
from its Baltic base, presumably
to join the British fleet in the North
Sea, concurrently with mobilization
of the British fleet. The British
mobilization created profound i'm
preston in Berlin.
3. Simultaneous ratification in
Berlin and Moscow of the August "a
aggression pact between Ger
many and Soviet Russia, along with
indications in informed quarters
that Russian mission was en- route
to Berlin possibly to negotiate a
military accord with the Reich.
4. The press was given to under
stand that Hitler would address the
nation and the world today, possibly
speaking before a special session of
the Reichstag.

Canadian Forces
Placed ON Active
Basis Under War Act
Mackenzie King to Ask
Parliament O. K. on
British Cooperation

OTTAWA, Sept. l canadian
Press The Canadian government
today placed all militia and naval
and air forces of the Dominion on
an active basis under proclamation
of War Measures Act of 1914.
Prime Minister Mackenzie King
announced that, as soon as Parlla-
ment assemblies September Z in
emergency session. it would be asked
to authorize the government to give
the most effective cooperation to
Great Britain in the present crisis.
The War Measure Act gives the
government extraordinary power to
act in an emergency, pending the
assembly of parliament. 1t was pro-
claimed by an order in council, fol-
lowing a meeting of the Dominion
cabinet.
Order in Effect at Once.
The active service order took
effect Immediately. Under the War
Measure Act, the government has
a wide measure of control over ship
ping, censorship trade and COM
merce, appropriation of private
property and transportation.
Mr., King had been up all night
watching the news from Europe.
He had called the cabinet meet
Ing hastily, and the members as
sembled within a short time. After
the announcement of the summons
to Parliament the cabinet meeting
continued.
In allowing only six days for the
members of Parliament to get to
Ottawa the governments action
contrasted with that taken in 1914,
when IA days were allowed.
Question Up to Parliament.
Mr.. King has stated several times
that he believed only the Canadian
Parliament should decide if Canada
should participate-and to what ex-
tent-in any war in which the
British Empire is involved
Ian Mackenzie, defense minister,
said he had no statement to make
on what steps Canada would take to
protect her internal security. The en-
tire cabinet, he said, would institute
such measures

nets already are patrolling such vul-

Two Poles and a German were
killed at Pitschen, about mile
