Chamberlain Indicates
Hardening Attitude

dictatorship utterances voiced by
President Roosevelt before Con-
gress may gravely jeopardize the
prime minister's plans for speedy
"appeasement" of the dictatorS.
London diplomatic circles ex-
pressed belief that the unprece-
dented action taken yesterday by
Chamberlain may prevent his
Forthcoming Rome conversations
with MuSsolini from achieving the
results the British Flying
Premier" expects.
Previously it had been expected
that President Roosevelt's message
to Congress might strengthen
Chamberlain hand for his talks
with Mussolini, but the prime min
ister's own statement has now
placed matters in new light.
Diplomats pointed out that the
Nazis, who hitherto have refrained
from abusing Chamberlain, are
now expected to regard him def
nitely in the opposition camp
and act accordingly.
1t is believed here that Germany
may even bring pressure upon the
Italian government to confront
Chamberlain with series of "im-
possible demands" designed to
wreck his talks with II Duce.
International News Servi C e
learned that Chamberlain, who for
months has sought to quell the
dictators by "appeasement," was
fully aware of these possible con-
sequences when he issued his state
ment.
While the statement was is
sued on Chamberlain's own re-
sponsibility, he released it only
after serious reflection and con-
Sultation with his colleagues.
Therefore, according to authorita-
tive sources, it reflects the hard
Iening British attitude toward the
dictator powers.
Indications of what shape the
new British policy may take were
read into The prime minister's
statement by crystal-gazing diplo-
mats today.

Czechs Shell Hungarian City

Ition Of military authorities in
sealing up the town. Civilians
were not permitted to leave and
all dispatches were heavily cen
sored.
Hungarian authorities charged
the Czechs had deliberately pro
voked the incident by crossing the
new frontier, which has not yet
been finally delimited, in motor
trucks and armored cars.
For some time there has been
dissatisfaction among CzechS and
Ukraines over the award of Nun
kacs to Hungary. This town and
territory Immediately south of it
was given to Hungary under a
supplement to the Munich accord
signed in Vienna on November 2.

the town for this is the Day OF
Epiphany, a religious holiday on
which Hungarian guards were re-
duced to skeleton forces.
A rapidly organized and spirited
defense spoiled the Czech plans,
it was said. The invaders were re-
pulsed on the outskirts and pre-
vented from crossing the Latorca
River, Munkacs' natural fortifica-
ton.
It was when the foray definitely
failed that Czech batteries opened
fire on the town from the hill
tops.
Hungarian officials stoutly
maintained that Magyar troops
played nothing more than a "de-
fensive role against Czech aggreS-

Message
Mistaken
By PIERRE J. HUss

BERLIN, Jan. 8 U.N.S0.-The
unexpected action of Prime Minis
ter Neville Chamberlain in en-
dorsing President Roosevelt's mes
sage to Congress condemning die
tatorships caused a profound i'm
preston in Germany.
There was a studied attempt
on the part of Nazi officialdom
to prove that despite surface in
dications, the British premier has
not receded from his position Of
collaboration with the totali-
tartan states.
The foreign office itself en-
deavored to picture Chamberlain
as mistaken" in his interpreta-
ton of Mr.. Roosevelt's remarks.
MAY HALT PARLEY
"Mr. Chamberlain apparently
reads into the message some
thing entirely different from
what We read" a spokesman
said. However, we doubt
whether Mr.. Chamberlain in
terpreted the President correctly
or that Mr.. Roosevelt really
meant what Mr.. Chamberlain
believes him to have said"
It was assumed in well-informed
circles that Chamberlain pro
nouncement would be certain to
play a decisive role in current con-
sultations among London, Rome
and Berlin with regard to the
premier's forthcoming conference
with Benito Mussolini.
1t will afford Reichsfuehre-; H t.
Ter renewed opportunity to air
his deep-Seated grievances against
statements such as President
Roosevelt made.
RETALIATION SEEN
There is always the possibility,
in addition, that the Fuehrer
might decide to retaliate for Cham
berlain's support of the Demo
cratic stand by torpedoing the
forthcoming Rome parley, sched-
uled for January II. A single
word from Hitler would be enough
to compel Mussolini to discourage
Chamberlain from making the
trip. II Duce is all the more GER
tain to be receptive to hints from
Berlin because of Hitler's support
of k-ussolini's aspirations in Tu-
niSia.

still being made to get a Czecho-
slovak and a Hungarian military
mission together to investigate
the incident.
NINE KILLED IN CRASH
The foray began with an at
tempt by Czech troops and Ukrain-
ians to enter Munkacs with a de-
tachment of armored cars. When
Magyar border guards repelled
them on the outskirts, the artillery
opened fire at noon. Four Hun
garian officers and five soldiers
were reported killed in the first
encounter
More than two hours and a half
later, the Czech batteries opened
up again, wrecking a number of
additional buildings and allegedly
causing heavy civilian casualties.
Details were meager owing to ac-
The Washington times., 1939-01-06

that Czech troops launched the
fray, pouring high caliber shells
into the center of the town from
gun emplacements in the nearby
hills.

Fifth in
Traffic Fatalities.

Minnesota stands fifth from the top
among the entire 48 states for its sue
cesSful efforts to reduce the number of
traffic fatalities, M. j. Hoffman, state
highway commissioner, was notified this
week by the National Safety Council.
During the first five months of 1899
there were only states with lower
traffic death rate, based on deaths per
100,000,O00 motor vehicle miles, and
also only A states which showed a
greater reduction in the number of
fatalities. Minnesotas traffic toll
dropped 21% as compared with the
same five months of last year, with
deaths totalling 152 as compared with
1872 for the same period of 1888.
The only four states which show a
greater reduction in the number of
traffic deaths are New Hampshire,
Pennsylvania, Utah, and Wyoming. The
states showing lower death rate, based
on mileage travelled, were Massachu-
sets, New Hampshire, North Dakota
and Rhode Island.

Calumet, was safe on first on an error

at hand His grounder to Krall on
second was funlbled, one run came in,
and the bases were again loaded.
The visiting pitcher made the first
out by tanning and Shepan, pinch
hitter, made the second on pop foul

was 100 per cent successful, one run
coming in and men landing safely on
