ARESTRAINEIJ UPTIMISM m IGERMANY

Hitler Awaits Next Meeting With Chamberlain,

Anxious To Avoid

. War. 1B—Chancelior

on

BERLIN, Sept. llltler kept watch on the Europ- ean crisis from his Bavarian moun- tain retreat on Obcrsalzberg today while heads of the British and French Govemmeiiis met in Lon- don to debate his terms for peace.

Official circles regarded the fact that preparations were going for- ward for a conference at Gillies- herg-at which Prime Minister Chamberlain is expected to deliver the‘ Anglo-Franch reply to those ierms—-as an indication that the Reichsfuehrer still believes war oger Czechoslovakia can be avoid- e

Germans watching the London meeting expected Mr. Chamberlain would be ready for his second pre- cedent-breakliig meeting with lllt- ler by Tuesday.

Diplomatic and other circles here believed only speedy action to meet the demands oi’ llltler and Konrad lienlcin, his Sudeten lieutenant, for the union of Sud- etenlund with Nazi Germany would save’ the situation.

Nevertheless official circles man- ifested a spirit ol’ l'0Stl‘il.lIl0d optim-

ism. Mr. Chamberlain's statement on his return to London Friday that. Hitler would. meet him liztlf way next time was pointed to as possibly symbolical.

Men in touch with Berchtes- gaden since the meeting here Thursday of Hitler and Chamber lain asserted Hitler had not been Jlflftfly as adamant as some ac- counts paintcd him. l,

They said that while naturallyi he tried to get the best possible terms for the Sudcten Germans and for Germany out of the sit- uation, he was as anxious to avoid actual war as the Prime Minister.

A plebiscite in which thesudeten Germans of Czechoslovokia would vote on the question of annex- ation to Germany remained the most. talked of solution in Ger-l many.

Informed observers believed speed in reaching a solution was more necessary than ever as a re- sult of what Nazis call "the Czech invasion“ of Sudetenland and the act of Heiilein. the Suclcten lead- er, in forming his followers tnio a fighting force. the "free corps“ operating along the German- Czechoslovak border.

Germans generally arc convin- ced that Germany would actively support the “free corps". In this connection a questioner is referred to Hitler's words in his closing speech at Nuremberg last iilon- day.

"If these harassed people itlie Sudetens) feel they are without rights and aid they will grt both from us."

Mnny an average citizen has bccn heard to express the fervent hopes that the Sudetcn "free corps" might prove sufficient t0 make the Sudeten Germans mas- ters in their own section oi’ Czechoslovakia without involving the (‘rcrinari army and airforcc.

War Would Bring No Business “Boom”

NEW YORK. Sept. til-With the world intent upon war clouds over

Europe. the big question facing American business is: "How would it be affected if major powers fight?"

A canvass of several Wat Street banking and business authorities and experts shows opinion con- fused. but leaning toward the con- clusion that a vast European con- flict. while it lasted, might stim- ulate American business, and the shock at. the onset would be mark-
