London, July 28.
Accompanied by his secretary, Viscount Runciman, former president of the British Board of Trade, will begin his unofficial mission to Czechoslovakia on Tuesday, August 2, when he leaves London for Prague.
Mr. F. Ashton Watkin, head of the Economic Department in the Foreign Office will also travel with the Viscount, it is understood. The British "arbitrator" in the Czech-
Sudeten dispute, however, will in no way be connected with ihe British Government.
Viscount Runciman will carry out his mission of "helping and advising" the parties in the Czech minorities problem, in a strictly independent capacity. and will therefore receive no compensation for his labours from the Government.
Sir Nevile Henderson, British Ambassador to Berlin, will place an interpreter at the "mediator's" disposal. This man will serve to trans late from the German language—Havas.
