MR. ASHTON GWATKIN'S FLYING VISIT TO LONDON: RUNCIMAN'S DISCOVERIES
Prague, To-day.
A member of Lord Runciman's “Staff,” Mr. Ashton Gwatkin, left yesterday evening by air for London where he will remain for two or three days. Although the assurance has been given that the journey is purely of a private nature informed circles are inclined to believe that following the conferences between Lord Runciman and the Czecho-Slovakian Government and the Sude- ten German Party, the trip to London is for the purpose of informing the British Govern- ment of the general impression gained and the progress made.

Sudeten German Party circles interpret this as an intimation that the initiative in the aforesaid visit did not emanate from Lord Runci- mari. The Deputy of the Russian National Autonomist Party, Dr. Srefan Fencik, conferred with the Runciman staff yesterday while the Premier, Dr. Hodza, called up- on President Benes to report upon his latest conference with, Lord Runciman.
Political circles intimate that, at the instigation of Lord Runci- man, President Benes will deny within the next few days reports that a three-year period of military in service is to be instituted Czechoslovakia.—Trang-Ocean.
