British Press Foresees. Further Czech Concessions

Herr Hitler Similarly Must Remove Cause for Tension; French Opinion Hopeful of Outcome

London, Sept. 16. peat a peaceful settlement of the European crisis cannot be reached without asking for further concessions from the Prague Government was the general opinion expressed in the press here this morning As a counterpart to these concessions, the papers said, a speci engagement guaranteeing the future of the Czech Republic must be taken.

"Some German quarters interpreted yesterday's communique to mean that an agreement had been reached in principle subject to the approval of the British and French Governments that details will be arranged later, and that in any case peace in Europe had been saved," stated "The Times" this morning.

"Other quarters are less optimistic and concluded from the fact that the conversations are to be continued that the views exchanged yesterday are regarded by either side as excluding the possibility that proposals should be framed which would be approved by the British and German Governments."
