Sudetens Sniping Czechs Unaware Of Agreement
Prague, To-day.
It is clear amidst the rumours of which Prague at present is full that the Slovak problem will come prominently into the foreground, and it is hoped that within the next twenty-four hours some basis of agreement will be found. Dr. Tisor, successor to the late Father Hlinka, head of the Slovak People's Party, is showing a some- what intransigeant spirit.
