Different Dangers
Forseen Today by
Ex-Secretary
tions pledged by treaty to defend
Czechoslovakia against aggres-
sion, Litvinov attacked British
and Frcr.ch policy. France he
blamed for the present plight of
the Czechs. The British policy of
“non-resistance to evil • and hu-
moring aggressors’* had strength-
ened “the aggressor bloc" of Ger-
many, Italy, and Japan, he said.
He told the delegates of the na-
tions v.’h'ch still remain in the
League that the dismemberment
of Czezchoslovakia today would
not prevent a large scale war to-
morrow.
Chubby, eloquent, Litvin >v ad-
dressed a packed gallery and a
tense assembly. He told them that
international problems could not
be settled by “granting bonuses
for saber rattling."
Then proceeding to reveal se-
cret diplomatic conversations of
the last few days, he said:
"When a f?w days before I left
for Geneva, the French govern-
ment for the first time inquired
as to our attitude in the event of
an attack on Czezchoslovakia. I
gave in the name of my govern-
ment the following perfectly clear,
unambiguous reply:
"Wo intend to fulfill our obli-
gations under the pact and to- j fluent in advance of Prague’* sub-

When I asi.cu if he was the
only one in this camp, he said:
! “No there arc at least 20 of us j
here.”
A Nazi storm trooper turned to
a group of ref’gees and said for
| “all who ha 1 service with the
Czech a: •’’ to hold up their
hands. So many hands came up
that it looked like the whole flock
, was giving he Nazi salute. Of
150 around us there probably were
1 not 20 who failed to raise their
hands, giving an indication of the
1 percentage of those available to
start fighting at once.
Ironically, the Czechs trained
these men. I was told hat in all
about 900 men in one camp had

wave of patriotic indignation
■through the capital. Extra detach-
ments of police were placed at all
strategic points In the city.
Shortly before 5 p.nt. crowds be-
gan gathering in the streets,
shouting:
“Long live the Republic! Long
live Czechoslovakia.”
The temper of a large part of
the populace and some of the ranks
of the army was such that the
danger of nn uprising and na-
tional suicide, under the boots of
the troops massed on the other
side Of the German border—was
not overlooked.
Shortly before the cabinet’s de-
cision was announced, the wives of
the United States Minister. Wilbur
J. Marr, nnd Vinton Chapin, first
secretary, left the capital for
Switzerland.
Messages telling of the cabinet's
surrender were coded by the
British and French ministries and
sent to London end Paris.
In London, Prime Minister Ne-
ville Chamberlain, apparently con-

on the Rhine tomorrow. There
Britain and Trance will present
their achievement to the Fuehrer.
The Prague government, having
suspended the stock echangc in-
definitely, decreed a provisional
moratorium for banks and private
insurance companies, starting im-
mediately. Banks are not obliged
to pay creditors having current
accounts more than 3 per cent of
their assets a month.
Unrest in the streets grew
the evening advanced. A crowd of
several hundred workmen demon-

sistance to Czechoslovakia by the
wavs open to us. Our war- de-
partment is realty ’mmediately to

should consider this a desirable
question to bo raised before the

under article eleven (which pro-
vides for League action in the
