HENLEIN AGAIN" SEES LORD RUNGIMAN
Prague, August 29. At Lord Runciman's request, Herr Konrad Henlein yester- day interrupted his tour of the Sudeten. districts and called at the local castle where the British mediator and the British Minister in Prague were week-end guests.
Lord. Runciman returned to Prague at 10 pm.. his interview with Herr Henlein having occupi
ed two hours.
Herr Frank, Herr Henlein's de- puty, declared in a speech at Nehaus yesterday: "Matters have been brought before us and it is necessary for us to take imme diate decisions. Our leader is at present conversing with Lord Runciman. and the teacher of gymnastics (menining Henlein) whom the Czechs laughed at is now playing the dominant role.”

BERLIN DISAPPOINTED
Berlin, August 29. Extreme disappointment at the speech of Sir John Simon at Lanark is voiced by the whole German Press, mainly- on the grounds that it did not
the do justice to
Sudeten Cause and that it made clear that Britain could not be re- garded as merely a spectator to what happens in Central Europe.
DENOUNCED
Berlin, August 29. The anti-Catholle campaign in Germany was denounced. In a pastoral letter read yester- day in all Catholic churches in Germany and Austria.
i
The letter approved of the recent conference of Catholic bishops beld at Fulda, which was not attended by Austrian bishops.
The anti-Catholic campaign, says the letter, aims at paralysing "the tianity by introducing a new faith church and annihilating Chris-
which has nothing in common with the belief in future life.
It complains that children; and young people are prevented from guing to church, and everying good in the Catholic faith has been suppressed or distorted, while everything bad has been exagger- ated.
"Members of the clergy have been accused of immorality but remain untried. Catholic publica- Mons have been censored, forbid- zen and conscated. The Catholic, Church has been accused of being in alliance with Bolshevik Russia, of which, in fact, it is a most irre- | concilable enemy,”—(Reuter.)

REGARDS SIMON
SPEECH AS OPPORTUNE
Parks, August 29.
Sir. John Simon's Lanark address was extensively commented upon by Paris Sunday papers, the majority of which express satis- faction. The speech is regarded as a corroboration of Mr. Cha...... berlain's statements of March 24 and new declaration of solidarity with France.
It is pointed out that Sir John Simon used the greatest reserve. and caution in discussing the international situation, and for this reason some astonishment is expressed over the fact that the speech had such a chilly reception in Germany.
