No official announcement was made of the number of troops and mobile guards sent by train during the night to the Paris region, under cover of darkness. Barracks in Paris, Versailes, St. Germain and other suburbs were kept closed to mide the number of troops. Alongside: the Ecole Militaire in the centerw of Paris, tanks and armored cars were visible through the gates of the garrison courtyard. Normally only a few horses are kept there.

Guns Moved Up

“ Guns and artillery also have been moved up secretly. _ Five million workers are scheduled to go on strike tomorrow. The strike will be almost complete in industry but is not likely to affect Government offices, public utilities, _ banks, stores and trains in the Paris area. . EL « Efforts at mediation failed, neither the C. G. T. nor the Government being able to retreat. Conciliatory efforts by parliamentary groups and the war veterans failed.

Germans Deny Mobilization Rumor _ LONDON, Nov. 29 (U. P.)—The News Chronicle said today it had learned that Germany was secretly * mobilizing 110,000 soldiers. The report could not be confirmed. The newspaper said it believed the mobilization was in connection with

Polish-Hungarian claims on Ruthenia, autonomous province of Czechoslovakia. Germany opposes their desire to take over Ruthenia so they will have a common leader. Six divisions have been mobilized ' already and it was estimated that 4 three more would be mobilized by ‘the end of the week, the News Chronicle said. The nine divisions will total 110,000 men. : The News Chronicle said the Army corps mobilized included the eighth (Silesian) stationed at Breslau; the - 17th, stationed at Vienna, and another, probably the 14th.

Officers Called Back

Leave of all officers was canceled. The speed with which the mobilization was carried .out disrupted freight scheduled between Berlin and Vienna on the direct line running through Praha, the newspaper . said. The preparations were believed to be Germany's reply to persistent Polish-Hungarian efforts to obtain Ruthenia, where there have been frequent incidents for several weeks. On the other hand, the News Chronicle said, well-informed circles suspect that the actual German aim was to await some particularly flagrant incident on the eastern frontiers of Czechoslovakia.

Wait Plea for Aid

This would prompt the pro-German elements in the Czech, Slovak or Ruthenian Governments to request armed aid from Germany and give the Germans the pretext of overrunning the whole of Czechslovakia and occupying Praha, the News Chronicle said. : The newspaper pointed out that the current mobilization might easily have escaped attention because of the small numbers involved compared to 1,350,000 men called up during the Czech crisis.

BERLIN, Nov. 29 (U. P.).—The German War. Ministry today officially denied a London News Chronicle dispatch reporting a new and secret German troop mobilization. It said the dispatch was “pure nonsense.”

B ‘Iron Guard’ Members

Arrested in Rumania

BUCHAREST, Nov. 29 (U. P.).~< Troops were thrown around the city of Cluj today because of an attempt to assassinate Dr. Francis Stefan-

escue-Goanga, a Liberal and former Minister of Public Instruction.

Simultaneously the Rumanian Government began rounding up . former members of the outlawed “Iron Guard,” a Fascist, anti-Semitic organization, as the result of antiJewish outbreaks at Timishoara, ~ Cernautzi and Cluj. Dr. Stefanescu Goangu was shet down in the street. Two bullets struck near the heart and physicians said his recovery was doubtful. A detective accompanying him was “killed by the assassins believed to students. ;

Belgian Premier Seeks Spanish Peace

- BRUSSELS, Nov. 2 (U. P.) —Premier Spaak announced in the Senate today that Belgium plans to press a program calling for mediation of the Spanish civil war by Belglum, Great Britain and France. . ‘The announcement by M. Spaak created belief that a Cabinet crisis ght develop this week-end bethe Socialists, Liberals and

Advocate creation of an international commission ta supply foodstuffs to Spain. ” 4, Mediation of the civil war by Belgium, France and Britain, Several mediation efforts in the past have been unsuccessful as a result of Rebel Generalissimo Franco’s declaration that he would accept only the complete elimination of the Loyalist regime.

Chamberlain Seeks

To Revive Appeasement LONDON, Nov. 29 (U. P.).—Prime Minister Chamberlain’s visit to Rome will mark active resumption of the British Government's effort to

put European peace on a splid basis. Mr. Chamberlain was expected to go to Italy about Jan. 10. He will be

Viscount Halifax. Ever since the “peace of Munich” Mr. Chamberlain has been anxious to resume negotiations with the dictators to achieve general European appeasement. : The anti-Semitic campaign in Germany, however, strained AngloGerman relations and made it impossible for British .statesmen to approach Germany. Mr. Chamberlain therefore decided to accept an invitation from Premier Mussolini to visit Italy. Anglo-Italian relations have been steadily improving in recent months. In view of Sig. Mussolini's role in the Czech crisis it was believed Mr. Chamberlain might again seek his help in persuading Germany to join efforts for a general European settlement. It was also assumed that Mr. Chamberlain would attempt to improve Franco-Italian relations. This would imply a new effort to settle the Spanish civil war because Sig. Mussolini has made it clear that he was not ready to talk with France until the Rebels have won. Premier Mussolini was reported to welcome the visit “in principls,” that is, without enthusiasm.

PLAN T0 RESETTLE JEWS IS OFFERED

Austrian Industrialist on Way to London. -

BERLIN, Nov. 29 (U. P.).—Arthur Kuffler, a baptised Jew and a prominent Austrian industrialist,” will submit to international authorities in London a new plan to resettle German Jews abroad, it was learned today. Herr Kuffler was en route to London. Herr Kuffler hoped to organize a stock company with headquarters in London. The company would carry out the resettlement of the Jews on a business basis instead of through charitable contributions.

by Herr Kuffler and Hans Gildemeester, son of a Dutch “Aryan” minister. It was reported to have had German official approval, but was abruptly halted after the slaying of Ernst vom Rath in Paris.

Helped Austrian Nazis

Herr Gildemeester was reported to be popular with the Nazis because during the Dollfus regime in Austria he helped Nazi prisoners escape. Through his efforts it was now hoped that the plan could be revived. The plan proposes a company capitalized with 20,000 shares valued at $60 each. With this fund the company would negotiate with nations “to buy or rent areas suited for settlement.” Homesteads would be erected and all essentials would be provided. These homesteads would be rented or sold on an installment plan to S€ tlers or settlement companies. If possible the company would arrange with the German Government to have the property of Jews emigrating under its auspices turned over to a trustee to be appointed by the Reich. The company gradually would pay off these amounts to the emigrants abroad, using the funds paid to the trustee by the emigrant, for the purchase of German goods to be exported to countries of emigrant destination to help them start their new existence.
