BLOODLESS VICTORY
HERE HITIER'S BOAST EFFECT OF ARMED STRENGTH CONQUERED SUDETENL.AND LONDON, Oct. 20 In the course of a tour of Sudetenland, accompanied by Dr. Inquart, Herr Henlein and other leaders, Herr Hitler told his audience at Krumau that 38,000 square miles and 10,000,000 people had been reconquered without a blow only because Germany was armed and determined if necessary to use force, says a message from Berlin. The Fuehrer added that military control of Sudetenland would be transferred to the civil authorities tomorrow, and a German labour exchange would be established under which FieldMarshal Goering would have first call on workers for his four-year plan. Press censorship and restrictions on telephones have been removed at Prague, says a message from that city. Mobilised troops are returning. All Communist activities, including newspapers, have been suspended. The Autonomist Party demands the resignation of all Czech officials, the repression of Jews and the subdivision of large estates.
