Herr Henlein's Proclamation

Berlin, Sept. 24.

Declaring that no Sudeten German should obey the Czech bilization orders, Herr Konrad Henlein, leader of the Sudeten G: rman Party, promised the Germans today that they would be free shortly.

"Dr. Eduard Benes, in his hazardous game, has thrown his last card on the table" the Sudeten chief said in a proclamation issued here. Supported by an unconstitutional military Government, he has ordered mobilization.

"You, my comrades of the Homeland, know what is happening. No German will shoot at Germans. yar will shoot at Magyars.

Denes has no right to force on you this terrible fratricide. Mo German should obey the mobilization o: ders. Shortly you will be free."—United Press.
