A o Syrovy Takes CzeclCabinet Premier Post Czechs Call on Cabinet to Resist Any More. Sacrifices i i i Chamberlain and Hitler Confer on Czech Plan at Godesburg ' (By the Associated Press1) , "Czechoslovakia, already brow beaten into yielding jauueieniauu to Germany and with, land-hungry Hungary and Poland demand ing simultaneous territorial cuts, today (Thursday) got a new premier to protect her interests. Gen. Jan Syrovy, who lost an eye fighting Germany in the World war. took over the pre ' miership and the war ministry in a cabinet shakeup which left only one member of the "capit ulation! cabinet," Foreign Minis ter Kainil Krofta, in office. Czechoslovaks called on the new regime to resist further, sacrifices and the '50-year-old. tn pector general of the army took a 'strong man" role to preserve all that he could of the 20-year-old republic. 'British Prime Minister Cham berlain and Relchsfuehrer Hit ler, the former bearing the Czech oslovak promise to deliver Su detenland, met at Godesberg, Germany. Talks Restricted To Sudeten Plan It was reported their talks were restricted to the German "Czechoslovak aspects of the crisis," although every European capital had been informed of Hungary's and Poland's moves to "protect" minorities in Czech oslovakia in the Hitler style. - Official German news agency dispatches reported last, night Czechoslovak troops fired on cel ebrating . Sudeten Germans on the Czechoslovak-German 1 fron tier near Eger, killing 16 men and women. The . dispatches said the out break occurred when troops were ordered by the Prague govern ment to reoccupy areas previous ly evacuated after Czechoslova kia agreed to cede them to Ger many. . A fear inspired by German news agency . reports of dyna- public buildings, dams, bridges and railways we t-blanketed German joy over "liberation" of the Sudeten German minority. Soviet Bombers Join Czechs The fear was that Czechs might attempt wholesale destruc tion before finally stepping out. A German news agency report that 31 fast 'Soviet Russian bombing planes had landed in Czechoslovakia added to German apprehension. Motorized units of the German army lay along the Czechoslovak German frontier awaiting orders to assist Sudeten free corps in occupation of the' Sudeten re gions. Provisional Sudeten local governments had been consti tuted. 14 " A multitude of Poles estimated at between 150,000 and 200,000 - surged through ' the streets of Warsaw in a clamorous demand for Immediate abolition of the boundary between Poland and the Czechoslovak province, Si lesia. Fresh Polish troops moved in to Teschen, opposite the disput ed border. Hungarians Want Slovakia A competent source in Buda pest said Hungary Is campaign t lng for return of Slovakia and Ruthenia, which with other parts of Czechoslovakia were part of the old Austro-Hungarian em pire. The government had form ally told Prague It expected treat ment equal to that accorded Germany. The Czechoslovak capitulation inspired fear in Rumania con cerning minorities within her war-set boundaries. The ' press expressed determination not to .. give up an Inch of territory. While Chamberlain was con versing with Hitler in Germany, his ministers in London strove to avert a loss of public support for his government because of the Anglo-French bargain with Hitler to dismember Czechoslo vakia. . Courageous Mission Of Peace' Viscount Halifax, foreign sec r e t a r y, called Chamberlain's talks with Hitler a "courageous mission of peace" and counseled Britons against premature con clusions.' Other ministers made similar declarations. v - At the same time it was. re ported in Geneva that present British policy called for a re turn of Germany to the League of Nations after the league had been remodeled to meet the ilk lng of Germany and other form ' er members. i French Premier Edouafd Da ladler, threatened with a cabin et crisis for his part In the An glo-French proposal forced on Czechoslovakia, appeared to have whtnmail him miniatera inta lla. at least temporary. ' General Becomes Czech's Premier ; ' v' V 2 : ' .. . . : tic' -. i JAN SYROVY Hint Hitler May Refuse Guarantee Berlin Tageblatt States Poland and Hungary to Get Lands ;GODESBERG, Germany, Sept. 23-(Friday)-(jlV-The blunt as sertion; that Adolf Hitler might refuse to guarantee the integrity of rebuilt Czechoslovakia , unless Poland and Hungary also get minority favors was made today before the ! fuehrer and Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain re sumed their war-or-peace talks. Neither Warsaw nor Budapest can be expected to guarantee the "Prague borders" if their na tionality groups remain within them, said the influential Ber lin Tageblatt. "Does anybcjly expect that Germany could Textend its guar antees to a fragile state which still shows i fundamental defects in construction?" the newspaper demanded pointedly. In London, official British quarters held to the attitude Hit ler would fail to get support from Britain for complete parti tion of Czechoslovakia. An informed source said Pre mier Chamberlain had made it clear his talks with Hitler were to be. about Germans and no one else.' " I - j . Hitler's refusal to accept this, these sources said, might bring the conference to a sudden end. In Washington, DC, reports Teaching there indicated Russia was forcing a protective series of forts around the rich Ukraine area to stop German expansion there if necessary. 10-Year-old Boy Drops off Cliff , r-t.- !

The five members of the national house were guests at a dinner arranged by the Salem chamber of commerce. Objective of the trip north ward from California, made in a naval transport plane, was the in spection of the proposed Tongue Point naval base near Astoria, as well' as a general Inspection of the Puget sound area. With respect to the Tongue Point base, Congressman' James W. Mott of Oregon, who served as toastmaster at the dinner, ex plained that the sub-committee would make no commitments while here, but added that the naval affairs committee had prev iously approved this project and that all congressmen on the trip had voted for it. Governor Charles H. Martin and Mayor V. E. Kuhn of Salem welcomed the visitors. Of special interest x&b the greeting in re sponse, from Congressman George J. Bates of Massachusetts, former mayor of the Salem in that state. He recalled the Indignation of his community .; when, some ; years ago, a Salem, Ore., man wrote to an earlier mayor of Salem, Mass., asking that the older city's name be changed to . avoid confusion. Congressman Bates .recalled that his home city was the first Salem, so named over 300 years ago. By-Play Result Of Election ; J Brief remarks also were made by Congressman W. Sterling Cole of New York and the two Cali fornia members present, Albert E. Carter; of Oakland and Byron N. -Scott of Long Beach, and there was a bit of humorous by play over the fact that Carter, a republican, is assured of reelec tion, being the nominee of all par ties, while Scott, a "100 per cent democrat," lis opposed by the mayor of Long Beach who had Introduced him at a dinner there during the j present trip. Inci dentally Congressman Mott Intro duced at the dinner here, his op ponent, Sheriff A. C. Burk. Also in the visiting party were Captain O. H. Mayo of the navy and Captain E. H. Hagenah of the marines. . ;i - . Governor Martin in his address of welcome stressed the need of adequate' naval defenses as re vealed In present European con ditions, and the expanse of 700 miles of Pacific coastline which is undefended. The governor also spoke of the need for maintaining in America the rugged virtues ex emplified by the Oregon pioneers. Congressman Bates seconded his sentiments on this latter ; point, and Congressman Scott on the need for naval defense, declaring that if Adolf Hitler gains his ob jectives in Europe he will next turn to South America and will have to be stopped for the secur ity of the western hemisphere. -Because of poor visibility at the time the transport plane ar rived here it continued on to Portland and the party returned br automobile. : CIO Body Is Opposed To Griffith's Naming PORTLAND, Ore., Sept. 22-0"P-The Portland Industrial un ion council; composed of CIO groups opposed today the sug gested appointment of E.

The monk died of starvation and possibly of suffocation or may be it was just curiosity that killed the simian. Charley Hellenbrand's mon key was a character of the good old days when his owner ran a popular restaurant and confectionery on North Com mercial street and advertised to the trade at large to "Come to Hellenbrand's for your New York ice cream sodas." Ice cream sodas were a rare dish in those days. That was 30 years ago. So Charley ran his restau rant and, being a bachelor, ad mired his pet . monkey as a very cheerful companion. So when one day, 30 odd , years ago, the monk didn't show7 up for a meal Charley got a - lit tle worried and when the monk missed two meals he started a hunt. That hunt became some thing of a cause celebre with all the boys out hunting for Mr. Hellenbrand's monkey .and a piece of the liberal reward he offered for Its return. The monkey was never found : and at last Hellenbrand gave up hope. The monk, it was ' decided, must have taken him self a awlm in the Willamette : and drowned. Mr. ' Hellenbrand never did i learn what happened to his monkey and went to his grave : wondering why it had deserted ' him. - i Yesterday as workmen were j ' remodeling the old Eldriedge building on North Commercial, , near the former site of Hellen-j brand's eating house, the mys- tery was suddenly solved. Be- j tween the floors of the ancient ; building they found a sere and j dry skeleton that was nothing i else but the last remains of a monkey. Old timers remem-i bered that there. was a bit of; remodeling - going .on at the ; time the monkey was lost and that apparently the monkey must have been unwittingly immured by the carpenters. Tbo skeleton is- now in the possession of Otto Klett, and if anybody doubts this story he'll be glad to produce the evidence. . . . . i -'7 r v V V County Relief Cost for Year, Set $677,745 Istimate Includes Funds Anticipated From All Relief I Agencies Tentative Cost Increase oi $164,000 of Funds Used in 1938 Relief for the aged, the blind, the unemployable in general and dependent children In Marion itounty will cost $677,745 during 1939, according to a county re lief committee estimate released yesterday.
