"It shouldn't be a political trial," Mr. Heilmuth replied, "but the public is making it one.”

General Lafleche again proceed- ed with his narrative of deliber- ations of the interdepartmental committee when Col. Drew charg- ed "the witness is insulting our intelligence.“

Adjourns Hearing

As a hot interchange arose over this observation Mi". Justice Davis, who had earlier declared the commission would sit until five o'clock today, suddenly adjourned the healing until tomorrow morn- ing. The session had proceeded only it few minutes pastjthe regu- lar closing hour of 4.30.

Desire of the British war office to purchase Bren guns from or through thc Canadian department of national defence ran counter to the settled policy of the gov- ernment of Canada, according to General Lafleches testimony.

Messages excitangcd between London and Ottawa and fllcd t:- clay showed the British govern- ment would supply 5,000 guns made in Canada to the war office on an agency basis.

Sir Harold Brown. director of munitions ]ll"0(illCtl01l.,lf1 a cabled answer to a query from the coni- nuttcc asked General Lafleche to confirm officially that a contract under which Canada would supply guns on an ngsncy basis would not be accepted.

At the same time a cable from Canada house stated Sir Harold wanted to know why it was neces- sary for the United Kingdom to negotiate a separate contract with the Inglis company.

The reply indicated the Canadian policy by which General Lafleche said he was bound It stated the position of the Canadian govern- ment had been made clear at the Imperial conference and that the government preferred the British government should deal directly with Canadian contractors. This would not tend to prejudice the relationship between the two gov- ernments.

ln thr- "vchange of l essages in February I ir Harold objected to a. suggestion from the interdepart- mental committee that alternative tenders from firms other than the Inglis company should be ob- tained. He stated several months would berequircd foranother firm to study the job before making a reasonable tender and this delay would be fatal to the British interest in the scheme.

Word the British Government was willing to p for pur- chuse of 5,000 guns from Canada. came to Ottawa. on Nov. 0, 1937, in a cable from Sir Harold.

The commissioner t_old Co]. Laflcclie there seemed to have been a lot of pressure brought on the war office. The witness said the department had been waiting several months for an answer and wanted guns.

After the word from Sir Harold came. however. he said the pres- sure was the other way. It was he who was being pressed, on the one hand by the war office for action on a Canadian contract and a start towards manufacture and, on the other hand. by his departmental officials who felt the need for guns.

Although Germany's attitude was unknown when Hungary broke off the negotiations with a Slovak delegation representing the Prague Government, it was re- liably reported she had the sup- port of Premier Muimolinl of Italy.

Tfwlls of Hungary and Czecho- slovakia are separated only by a narrow stri on the frontnir and Czechoslova la rushed additional reinforcement tonight to‘ the in- tcrnatlnnal bridge across ths Danube River.

On the Hungarian side of the Danube there also was increased military activity. An estimated 12.- 000 soldiers were in the area.

Military Activity Follows Move

The troop movements started shortly after Koloman Von Kanya, Hungary's Foreign Minister, read the dsaclaration to the final session of the Hungarian-Czechoslovak conference that Hungary's claims would be given to the four-power confereea for decision

His action came an hour‘ after expiration of a Hungarian ulti- matum calling on Czechoslovakia to accept his country's demands by 6 p. m. (noon EST).

They said the situation was ini- proving quickly as the cabinet. of ‘the autcnouious government be-V gan functioning.

Premier Andrew Bordy was wel- comed enthusiastically on his arrival in Uziliorod from Prague but he left. almost immediately for Koramrom to oppose the Hun- garian territorial demands which included a large part of Ruthenia and Uzhorod. its capital.

The daily official tiropagandn ministry bulletin cited several new instances of German occupation of Czech villages.

Today's bulletin said that at Znojmo the Germans demolished o number of Czech stores and stationed guards before others t0 prevent the population from buy- ing.

It was estimated 250 persons, the majority oi them said to be Social Democrats tGermans) and Communists, were arrested at Znojmo Monday after the Nazi occupation.

The newspaper Lidovy Noviny published censored dispatches stat- ing that Czech functionalres at Lundenibung were forced to clean the streets under the orders of the occupation ti-cops.

Some revision of the adminis- trative stwff in Prague was pro- ceedtng in an attempt to heighten the efficiency of the Government officcxs but the changes for the time being are confined largely to minor functionaries.
