WHITELEATHER Eger, Czechoslovakia, Sept 19 (AP)- Sudeten Germans disclosed today they had planned a putsch against the Czechoslovak government to start immediately after Adolf Hitler's speech at Nurnberg last Monday night.

Advisory defense council--This is the to be made up of the super cabinet above agencies and other war agencies, responsible only to the president and acting independently of the existing cabinet.

A price control commission would also be established by WRA, but it would be responsible only to the president. It could proceed nearly any practical way. Its instructions would be to maintain a price level of the last 20 years before the war. could fix every price everywhere, and would be empowered to ascertain the cost of production and allow a reasonable return on capital investment.

SWEEPS WINNER BACK AT WORK London-(P) you really want to know what to sweepstakes winners, story happens, what happened to the biggest of them all.

Emilio Scala is the exception which proves the rule. Ninety-nine out of a hundred who stumble into big money may crash in a gray roadster, drink themselves to death or let women make fools of them. Emilio is the hundredth. After a windfall of $1,790,000 in 1931, he is back where he started, selling penny ice cream cones over the counter and happier than any time since he started "living the life of Riley." Their Shop Then Son of a father who cared children on a poverty wage of less than $2 a week, Emilio left Italy as a boy and came to London, where 1931 found him in 8 tiny corner cafe in Battersea. There his wife and two sons helped him in grubby trade of tea, crumpets and wafers.

He wiped his hands on his apron one afternoon and picked up a paper to read that his, half crown ticket on Grakle won the grand prize in the Irish lottery. had three-fourths of his ticket for few shillings and sold, immediately harvested a lawsuit. When it was all oven he had 000. He bought and furnished a 23- room house in Forest Gate. He bought automobiles for himself and his two sons, distributed cash generously among his relatives and made a gala trip to Italy.

Tribulations of Wealth Begging letters poured in by the hundreds. He heard from relatives he never knew existed. Most of the 49 he recognized needed money. Share pushers and business sharks pestered him. His sunny face soon began to show lines of care.

He made a few bad investments, but was not badly hurt. "Mamma" Scala couldn't get along with the help. Often she did the housework in her palatial home. The boys, Fred and Joe, 24 and 23 years old, didn't want to go to college, but theye traveled around the world and studied the ice cream business. Emilio and his wife have had an Italy and still think they take annual three months holiday, in a trip around the world on a luxury cruise, but idleness has palled on them.

Threir Shop Now In a white jacket, standing behind the green and chromium freshness of his new shop in North End Fulham, bronzed, grinning, fiftyish Emilio Scala told his story: "For seven years my boys went around driving and smashing up cars. They came to me one day and said it was, about time that they did some honest work. That tickled me. I had the same idea. I had been ready a long time.

They are good boys. So I bought this shop. It belongs to them. Mamma and I just Emerick, Lead, who went to fornia, and stopped for her on their way home. Mother's Standby in Treating CHILDREN'S COLDS FOR RELIEVING discomforts of chest colds and night coughs, rub Vicks VapoRub on throat, chest.

Got Lead Poisoning But Wasn't Shot Chicago (AP)-When the city council received $313 claim from policeman William O'Brien, covering hospital treatments for lead poisoning the aldermen wanted to know who shot him.

"He didn't get shot," said the finance chairman. "He was poisoned handling cartridges on the police pistol range." The claim was allowed. SET OF TEETH Chicago (AP)--A set of false teeth--uppers--await their owner at the Sheffield police station. A policeman picked, them up at Wrightwood Lincoln avenues. PRESIDENT'S CHINA PRESIDENT'S CHINA Washington -(P)- Samples of china ordered for any white house family are placed in the china room on the first floor of the mansion where they are on view to visitors.

10,000,000 women now estimated to be working in industry, commerce and the professions. Those engaged in mechanical and scientific work would be recruited into munitions and essential industries to take the place of men at the start. Further recruiting would be done to promote the "infiltration" of women boys under 18 into commerce and industry. Many new government corporations would be set up to conduct the businesses which private business might not want to do. A prepared bill would establish, for instance, a bureau of marine insurance in the treasury department.

Other government corporations would be established to do a shipbuilding and a power business and conduct trading in raw materials. This all may sound disturbingly drastic right now, but the single purpose of war is to throw everything you have at the enemy and not to worry too much about how you do it. Basis upon which government officials are working is that the dismal mistakes of organization, profiteering and graft in the last war must not be permitted to happen again. Every resource must be mobilized swiftly and efficiently next time. Doc, I bought these teeth at a bargain but I want you to put them in! IMAGINE the amazement of your dentist if you went to him with a sec of "store teeth" you purchased at a bargain and asked him to fit them in your mouth.
