Berlin, Sept. 15.
The fear that Herr Hitler may have kindled a fire in Sudetenland which he may be unable to stamp out is uppermost in the minds of people throughout Germany today.
Official circles are hopeful that further incidents may be avoided.
It is considered that there is danger of a really grave incident which might lead Germany to dispatch troops to protect the Sudetens, but who ostensibly would not penetrate further than the predominantly Sudeten country.
Otherwise, universal desire to avoid hostilities is expressed, not only by the general public, but also in official circles, There is no doubt that armed intervention would be most unpopular with the general public, who nevertheless whole-heartedly sympathize with the Sudetens after the inspired press accounts attacking the Czechs, and upholding the Sudetens as meek and blameless.
