"Supreme Demarche"

A despatch to Paris from reliable French sources in London today declares that the "supreme demarch: of Mr. Chamberlain consists of a-pr posal for accelerated procedure for the carrying out of the Anglo-French plan in the Czechoslovakian issue. Germany, it adds, will then have to pronounce for or against peace.

It is stated, however, that the British and French Ministers do not agree on the date, October 1, as fixed in the German Chancellor's latest proposals. The hope is expressed that the British and French appeal so opportunely. supported by President Roosevelt, will be heard in Berlin, which will then have to pronounce for or against peace.
