PROCEEDS WITHOUT EVENT
PRESS ALLEGATIONS
(United Press Association —By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) (Received October 5, noon.)
PRAGUE, October 4.
The occupation of the Sudetenland is proceeding without event, despite Berlin Press allegations that the Czechs are not carrying out the agreement, published under headings such as "Trail of Czech Destruc* tion," "Plundering Before Withdrawal," and "Incredible Devastation," details of which are being confined to reports of broken windows of Custom houses and military measures taken before the Munich agreement.
Herr Hitler arrived in Carlsbad at 1 pan. In acknowledging cheers from the balcony of a theatre, where he was accompanied by Herr Henlein, the Fuhrer emphasised the necessity, during political- differences, for establishing a national community. He announced special relief measures for the Sudetenland and the immediate adoption of a reconstruction programme. * He paid a tribute to the Sudetens, and said: "I never knew when I should come to this land, but I knew that one day I should come."
A message from Berlin states that the High Command announces that the march into Zone 3 was continued at 8 a.m. Zones 1 and 2 are completely occupied.
