WASHINGTON, Sept. 2-m-
WasMngton . officials refrained
from comment on the European
situation tonight as reports of re
newed fighting and bombings in
Poland overshadowed earlier indi
cations of lessening hostilities.
Rapid developments abroad left
officials! uncertain as to what to
expect next. It was felt in some
quarters that nothing could be
said until the results of the latest
move by Britain and France a
final notice to Adolf Hitler that
(allure to withdraw his troops
from Poland . would . result in a
general European war were
known, r
Hope,; however slender,"- thai a
major war might be averted re
mained, as long as a general con
flict had not actually begum in
the view of some officials.
Both the White House and the
state department made It plain
this government would take no
steps to iinvoke the neutrality law
Until a clearer picture of the Eur
opean situation was obtained.
At Secretary Hull's press con
ference, !a reporter, recited press
reports from abroad, and asserted
they were confusing to observers
here. -
Hull said his reports, too, failed
to bring any concrete outline of
developments. He said he felt It
was a sound policy for the state
department not to publicise rum
ors and reports which might be
proved incorrect within from
three to six hours.
In other official quarters, ob
servers said they were unable to
add up- such developments as
the seeming slowing down of mil
iary operations, the French ex
pression of .willingness to partici
pate in a last-minute peace effort
if German "aggression" were halt
ed, and Reichchancellor Hitler's
decision' to draft a reply to Great

tonight that unless Adolf Hitler
calls his troops out of Poland a

final and formal notice to that ef

the night.

Foreign Secretary Lord Halifax,
before the British house of lords,
said negotiations still were possi

Oh the bare shred of hope that
Hitler might accept this proposal
seemed to hang the chances of
peace. .
No More Delay
Is Nation's Feeling J
; Everyone here went on the as
sumption that he would not. In
that ease, it was agreed generally
that France and Britain would
have to start a war of assistance
to Poland without much more de
lay. President Albert Lebrun In a
message read to parliament today
said:
'. "The future of civilization is at
stake."
' Daladier, addressing the crowd
ed chamber of .deputies, said no
Frenchman will go to war with
hatred for Germans at heart but
all will have the knowledge "the
very existence" of their country
was in the balance.
There were reports of another
Italian attempt during the day, 4o

Saturday Peace -Moves: From MussolitttH
Believed Fruitless; Hitler ;
Sends no Reply, Belief i
LONDON, Sept. 3 (Sunday) (AP) The British cab
inet held a brief midnight meeting; less than three hours after
Prime Minister Chamberlain in an historic session of parlia
ment "delayed decision on a declaration of war against Ger
many as a result of her invasion of Poland.
An announcement after the 45-minute session said no
statement would be made, however, until later today I (Sun
day) when parliament js scheduled to meet at noon (6 a. m.,
EST) for Chamberlain's report on results of last-minute
peace proposals advanced by Premier Mussolini.
It was reported without confirmation the prime mini
ster's statement might be delayed until after 7:30 p. m.
(12:30 p. m., EST). - j
The hastily summoned cabinet ministers made their way
to No. 10 Downing street and out again later in inky black
ness for the capital was blacked-out as an air raid precaution.
Only occasional flashes of lightning from a gathering storm
lighted their way.
Their meeting followed a Saturday session of the housa
of commons at which the prime minister held little hope that
new peace moves from the Italian premier would change the
situation.
Speculation concerning the cabinet meeting centered oh '
two possibilities: that a reply had been received from Hitler
to Britain's , latest warning to get out of Poland, or gome
communication had been sent to London by the French cabi
net which also held a night session'
An authoritative source declared, however, that no reply
had beeii received from , Berlin to: the warning voiced by
Chamberlain in commons Friday : and the purpose of the .
cabinet meeting remained a close secret. v ,
t' - ' ':: ""t ': Tim15 limit St ' T . ""r-T"!r'
Chamberlain said Britain and France would set a time
limit tonight for a German reply .and expressed belief he
would be able to announce a definite decision when parlia
ment meets at noon (6 a. nL, EST) tomorrow. ,
Later it was learned the government's statement might
not be made before 6 :30 p. m. (12 :30 p. m., EST) .
. "I anticipate there is only one answer I shall have to
give the house," he declared.
Mussolini's proposals, he said, were that German-Polish
hostilities should cease and that Britain, France, Germany,
Italy and Poland should immediately Jiold a conference to
seek a settlement.
His only hope Germany was considering the plan, he
indicated, was based upon the fact Hitler had not yet replied
to British and French last warnings" they would go to
Poland's aid unless German troops were withdrawn "prompt
ly" from Polish -soil.
"It may be," he said, "that the delay (by Hitler) is
caused by consideration of the proposals put forward by the
Italian government.' I . !
Chamberlain told the house.theiBritish and French gov
ernments expected to inform Germany; within "the next few
hours' how long they would wait for a reply before acting.
Foreign Secretary Lord Halifax made an identical statement
in the house of lords.
Members of parliament who had been waiting ; since i
early afternoon for the statement, were visibly disappointed
by the governments' decision and opposition .leaders were x'
cheered when they objected to the delay. ' -' " ' -
. Most of the members apparently had expected imme-
diate declaration of war. r j , - - f f --
f The prime minister was given an Ovation as he entered
the crowded house. Members leaned forward on the edge of
their benches as he started reading his statement in low
voice from small sheets of white note paper.
Ovation Greets Chamberlain
He .was cheered when he declared "His majesty's gov- :? -.
ernment for their part will find itfhnpossible to take part
in a conference while Poland is being subjected to invasion,
her towns under bombardment and while Danzig is being
made' subject of . unilateral settlements by force." , ' ' .
-Most of the statement however, was received in silence
and there was a chorus of "Oh! Ohl" from the opposition
when -he said:.- vv-
"If the German government should agree to' withdraw ' .
their, forces bis, majesty's government would be willing: to &
