Sudeten Germans and Czech soldiers.

As a result, there is a complete breakdown in the efforts to solVe the bitter, bloody dispute over the Sudetens’. .demands for self-rule, there being no ma chinery on the Sudeten side for further discussions. Meanwhile, the government, ignor ing the Sudetens’ ultimatum demand ing cessation of martial law in Sude ten regions, commandeered motor buses in Prague to rush fresh troops into the regions tinder military con trol. The ultimatum expired early today without immediate results. The Sudeten party is conducted on . the leadership principle—following the Nazi German model—therefore, Hen lein, as fuehrer, alone has authority to discuss anything with the Prague j government. Henlein reported his decision to dis solve his committee to F. T. A. Ash , ton-Gwatkin, chief lieutenant of Vis count Runciman, and other members ■ of the British mission at a confer ; ence at Ash, Henlein’s home town/At noon. The Sudeten leader said that . in view of acts of violence in the Su deten region, the party felt that pre ■ P er atmosphere for negotiations no . longer existed. Meanwhile, martial law was extend ed over two more Sudeten communi ties. Soldiers and special police this afternoon were preserving order in ten frontier districts. Reports to the capital indicated they were doin'* - ai effective job. ° "All quiet throughout the republic”, the government radio announced jubi lantly at 2 p. m.

Jonas Claims Chance To Win Over Reynolds (Continued from Page One.) off in November. He admitted there is no way to tell whether the dissension within Dem ocratic ranks can be trahsiatel into Republican votes, but it *s on this dis sension that he bases 'what hopes he has. When his attention wa= called to the fact that even w:th the aid bf re ligious prejudice, the Republicans could not w ! n for *hc-ir State ticket •n 1928, he'replied that the Demo cratic troubles this veir are "family Squabbles”, which he indicated are us.mlly eyen mbre b’tter than re ligion.'! rows “At all events, the situation looks better to me now than it did at'the same stage in 1928”, he said, “In the middle of September, 1928, I did not have the slightest idea I’d be elected to Congress—but I was.” He predicted that John R. Jones will carry the eighth district against whichever c? the fighting Democrats —C. B. Deane and W. O. Biirgin—is finally declared the nominee in th&t sector. He foresaw at least moderate gains in the Republicans’ General As sembly delegation. In short, the G. O. P. senatorial nominee was in an optimistic, though not enthusiastic, mood. He feels there Is a “trend” in his direction and he is confident he can take full advan- 1 tage of it. In this connection, even the most hardened Democrats admit that Char lie Jonas is no mean opponent, as his election to Congress and his re peated representation of a normally Democratic county in the General As sembly prove. He does rot intend to go about the State raising a great hurrah and hul laballoo from the stump, he said, pre ferring to rely upon quiet personal contacts and intensive and localized organization efforts. He referred to the fact that in the last senatorial election' hied in an "off-year,” 1930, the Democratic majority was “less than 115,000.” He added that “not even the Lord himself” could have Won on the G. O. P. slate in North Carolina either in 1932 or 1936. While the Lincolnton is obviously bidding for support from many who regard President Franklin D. Roose velt and the Deal in the same light as does Josiah W. Bailey, he does not hope for any from the State’s senior senator himself —a fact which naturally results from the acrid war fare which has raged between the two. Back in 1931 or 1932, Senator Bailey prevented Jonds’ confirmation as Federal district attorney by resorting to the final weapon of a senator. He declared Jonas " obnox ious”.' 1 Jonas spoke without seeming bit terness of the i icident, with the com ment that Bailey resorted to the coup simply because he knew “he couldn’t beat me any other way.” Prettiest Dane Wearing the Danish costume of her! grandmother, even to the wooden shoes, Dagmar Petersen, of ‘ Santa Barbara, Gal., blondeand beautiful, is shown after she was acclaimed prettiest Danish girl in the United , •w*-*'*# HENDERSON, (N. £.)
