Britain and France Busy DETERMINED TO AVERT CRISIS IF POSSIBLE United Press Association.— By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright. Received Tuesday, 12-49 a.m. LONDON, July 25. The Associated Press understands that if Dr. Hodza’s and Herr Henlein’s direct negotiations collapse of which there is every likelihood despite strong British and French efforts to prevent a deadlock, the British and French Governments will submit a plan for outside mediation. This is the present position and is the real meaning of Captain Wiedemann’s and Herr von Dircksen’s conversations with Mr. Chamberlain and Lord Halifax, the position concerning which will be much clearer after Lord Halifax’s return from Paris. Britain and France arc determined to do their utmost to avert a crisis and are agreed that they must not be suddenly confronted with such a position without preparing other means for a solution. Mr. Chamberlain will make a statement in the Commons tomorrow.
