Prague, Sept. 13. Herr Hitler's speech was enthusiat once_with- tienlly received by Sudetens, Whul held demonstrations in many parts of the Sudeten areas.
The reaction of the speech was not commented on in papers here, which published bare reports of the speech. It is understood that the Czech Minister in London, M. Thomas Masaryk, has handed a memorandum to the British Government explain- ing why it is impossible for Czecho- Slovakin to agree to n plebiscite.
According to the Bohemia M. Masaryk's role referred to the latest Prague proposals as the "utmost limi to which concessions can be granted." -Trans-Ocean.
Discussed in London
London, Sept. 13. The Premier, Mr. Neville Chamber- lain, to-day received the leaders of the two
opposition parties, Mr. Clement Attice and Sir Archibald Sinclair, with whom he discussed Herr Hitler's speech.
It is said that the speech will be further examined on Tuesday even- ing at a special meeting between the Prime Minister, Lord Halifax, Sir John Simon and Sir Samuel Hoare. The Cabinet Council is expected to meet on Wednesday.-Trans-Ocean.

It is generally believed here that an acceptance of the demands by Prague would have meant an early prebiscite under German supervision, backed by the Reich Army, with the result that Czecho-Slovakia would inevitably lose part of her territory. It is reliably learned in Paris that Britain and France intend to urge the the accept Prague Government to prebiscite proposal in order to avoid crisis which must lead to war in Europe.
