When
the
Prime
Minister
made
his
dramatic
announcement
to
the
crowded
House
of
Commons,
traditional
Westminster
calm
was
shattered
as
members,
fearing
the
worst,
suddenly
realized
that

may,
after
all.
be
averted.
Members
of
the
House
and
peers
in
the
galleries
shouted
their
approval
and
cheered
loudly.
The
Prime
Minister
was
visibly
affected
as
he
revealed
that
Hitler
had
agreed
to
postpone
mobilization
of
the
German
army
for
twenty-four
hours
to
permit
of
tho
Munich
conference.
Mr.
Chamberlain's
voice
sud
denly
lowered
as
he
declared:
"No
member
of
this
House
will
not
feel
his
heart
leap
that
the
crisis
has
again
been
postponed.
I
hope
that
the
House
will
re-lease
me
now
to
go
and
see
what
I
can
make
of
this
last
effort."
The
Premier
sat
down
amid
ringing
cheers
and
the
House
agreed
to
adjourn
until
tomorrow.
It
was
announced
that
Premier
Mussolini
had
already
left
Rome
for
Munich.
WHAT
HITLER
SAID
During
his
speech
Chamberlain
said
that
Hitler
hid
infnrmofl
him
at
Kerrhtesiraden
that
"rather
than
wait"
to
help
the
Sudelens
achieve
self-determination,
"he
would
be
prepared
to
risk
a
world
war."
Declaration
by
Hitler
to
Chamberlain
that
the
Czechoslovak
situation
had
become
unbearable
and
"will
not
be
tolerated
by
me"
was
disclosed
with
publication
of
correspondence
between
Chamberlain
and
Hitler.
Hitler
warned
that
it
was
impossible
for
"us
to
refrain
from
giving
immediate
protection
to
this
Sudeten
territory."
Authoritative
sources
said
that
Hitler
had
sent
a
letter
to
Chamberlain
guaranteeing
Czechoslovakia's
political
and
economic
independence
would
not
be
endangered
by
occupation
of
Sudetenland.
Infuriated
over
the
speech
yesterday
of
Prime
Minister
Chamberlain
who
described
his
latest
demands
on
Czechoslovakia
as
being
"unreasonable,"
Chancellor
Hitler
according
to
unofficial
reports
current
here
late
last
night,
had
been
preparing
to
abandon
the
deadline
of
October
1
and
march
his
German
forces
into
the
little
republic
without
further
delay
unless
there
was
an
immediate
concession
to
his
demands.
In
his
reported
decision
to
strike
at
once,
Hitler
was
said
to
have
declared:
"It
rests
not
with
Germany
but
with
the
Czech
government
alone
w
hether
it
wants
peace
or
war.
While
nations
of
Europe
were
preparing
for
war
in
which
all
may
become
involved
and
mobilization
continued'
feverishly,
an
bptimistic
note
was
struck
in
Paris
last
night
with
a
statement
that
peace
might
yet
.be
saved
through
the
strong
stand
of
the
democracies.
