is of grave importance, not only bear
ing on Japanese Chinese relations, but
also directly affecting Japan's posi-
ton in the world. The japanese Gov.

some room for further negotiations con =
corning the disposition of submarine
cables, the society considers tina.
Japan's mandate of zap must be re-.
garded as a decision which neither re.

cano Stromboli, on Strombol Island off
the north coast Of Sicily. burst into wild
activity Monday night and terror fills
the island. The molten rocks and sui
ohurous gases pouring from the crater
il is feared. may spell impending doom
to the panic stricken inhabitants.
The islanders. terrorized by the be-

three days, are congregating on the
shores preparing for an attempt at
flight, but waiting in the hope that the
volcano will subside.
The eruption is accompanied by
quakes, felt for thirty miles, shaking
nearby islands. Flames and black
clouds from the volcano are plainly
seen from Messina. The shape of the
crater has been changed by the vio-
lence Of the eruption. Apparently a
large piece has been detached. The
surrounding plains are devasted by
molten matter.
