MUSSOLINI'S LAST-MINUTE INTERVENTION
COMMONS
TOLD OF NEW
PLAN FOR EUROPE'S PEACE
Both Houses of Parliament were surprised last night after hours of anxious waiting to hear that there is stili a porwibility that war may be averted.
Signor Mussolint has intervened and, while using his influence to deter Herr Hitler from carrying out his present drastic plans, he proposes that an international conference be called to settle the points of difference nl present disputed.
After the House of Commons met, the Premier's statement, it was announced, would not be made t later. Finally, inte in the evening, Lord Halifax in the House of Lord and Mr. Cham. Inin in the House of Commons made simultaneous and identical speeches
A further meeting of the House is called for noon to-day when In announcement will be made.
In Berlin the British and French Ambassadors handed the British and French demarches to the German Foreign Office, and were told that the letters would be given to Herr Hitler; while it was generally believed that a written reply to them was to be expected during the course of the afternoon, to be immediately telegraphed to London. That reply had not been received in Parls or London up to 1.30 a.m., Hongkong time.
While Germany has declared that because she has not declared war therefore no state of war exists, the Polish Ambassador in Berlin has left the city, and European countries generally are mobilising and taking every step necessary As in time of war. Britain and France are fully prepared, and France now has six and a half million men under arms, while Paris is typical of every city throughout the country-with almost every vehicle being used to transport troops or officers to railheads or families to the relative safety of the countryside.
In London everything is ready for war and a complete blackout was staged on Friday night as a precautionary measure.
Other precautionary measures have been taken to cover practically every contingency, such measures ranging from the evacuation of 400,000 schoolchildren from the city and the passing of bills giving the Government immense power to conscript manpower and control over huge war funds, to the killing of dangerous reptiles in the London Zoological Gardens to ensure that during an air raid they would not escape and become a menace to the population.

AIR RAIDS ON POLAND ALMOST CONTINUOUS
Fragmentary reports of the German attack on Poland Indicate that the invaders carried out bombing over all the principal cities and military objectives and their communiques claim that progress hes been made on the three fronts cast, west and south of the Corridor.
Gdynia, Poland's only port, has been bombed and bombarded while Warsaw, the capital, has been raided repeatedly with unassessed damage and casualties.
The Poles have charged the Germons with indiscrimate air attacks on civilians and open towns. This charge has been refuted by the German Army. All parties have expressed agreement with President Roosevelt's plea that such warfare will be avoided provided observance is reciprocal.
It is also charged against the Germans that they have used poison gas and incendiary bombs. The Reich Army reports pays tribute to the enthusiasm of its air arm and says its plones dominated aerial combat.
On the Polish side it is claimed that the German attacks have been repelled and the defence lines have been maintained, The morale of the population is good. Reports that the Poles had Invaded German Upper Silesia are denied by Warsaw.
