NEUTRAL ZONE
IS ASKED IN
CHINA WAR AREA
u, S, and Other Countries
Join in Request as Aid
to Safety,
BY RAY G. MARSHALL

United Press Staff Correspondent
PEKING. Sept, S.-The United
States. Great Britain. France. Japan
and Italy joined today in sending a
note TO the foreign office. asking
proclamation of a neutral zone from
Woosun 10 Shanghai for the protec-
tion Of lives and property of for
eigners.
The request was made following
Intervention Of Chang Tse-Lin. the
powerful war lord Of Manchuria, into
the civil war. which now involves
half of China
Chang IS reported to have in
formed foreign consuls at Mukden
;hat he IS ''preferrng counter action
against four divisions Of Wu Pei Flu
Tekinl troops" which. he declared,
are moving toward Manchuria.
Pe1in Interferes
Meanwhile Pekin was intervening
in the Shanghai war The presi-
dent Of the north China government
issued a mandate Sunday, formally
declaring a state Of war in the
Kiang Su province.
The Pekin president declared in
favor Of Gen. CiR Hsich Yuan, who
IS attacking Shanghai, and an
nounced that Gen. Lu Yung Hsianc
and Gen. Ho Feng Ling defense
commissioner Of Shanghai. were to
be considered rebels and deprived
Of their titles and honors.
chi Hsieh Yuan's troops, attack
ing Shanghai, pushed forward two
miles across the Liuh HO battlefield
this afternoon. The advance brought
them close 70 the city Of Liu Ho.
and as a result orders went out to
American war vessels in the vicinity
10 land marines if the city falls
Gen. Lu Yen Hsiang. who con
siders himself defender Of Shanghai.
although he has been repudiated by
the Pekin government, claimed gains
on other sectors.
The war in front of Shanghai is
making itself felt In English and
American business circles here Man
ayers are worried and many houses
face collapse. Chinese merchants
are refusing to accept cargoes and
the credit situation is strained to the
breaking point.
Food is scarce and prices are soar
ing. Refugees continue to pour into
the foreign quarter. seeking safety
in case Chi's troops take Shanghai.

Crude Tools Used
Samuel Lerman. one Of the pro-
prietors Of Solomon's restaurant, dis
covered the safe off the main dining
room had been broken into. No ac-
curate check was possible. but Ler-
man said he believed between $500
and $500 had been taken. The

Detectives declared that the rob
bers must have been spent three or
four hours in their attempt TO break
into the safe. They were equipped
with only crude tools, they said. An
attempt was made to smash off the
combination. This failing. the men
laboriously chiselled a hole in the
rear Of the safe about one foot wide.
The safe was practically wrecked.
Lansing and Mcdonald said en-
trance had been made into the

The Washington times., 1924-01-01
By HAROLD PHILLIPS.

1t ought to be noted in the
Good Intention column OF your
little red notebook that Outward
Bound" above all plays reckoning
your attention, is one that should
be seen. The years receding hor-
lion has brought nothing quite
like 1t to the theater. 1t is a
courageous piece of writing in its
total escape from the trite, staged
wonderfully well by William Har-
ris. Jr., and entrusted to a cast
whose talents haven't been dup
: Heated under one roof in seasons.
Imagine. il you can, a fusion
of the group comedy note of
Seven Keys to Baldpate:" the
fantastic indulgences of "Liliom"
and jeopardy's drum-banging in
THE Emperor Jones" and you
begin to get within hailing dis
lance of the thought in Outward
Bound''-a comedy about death
and the hereafter!
Mr.. Sutton Vane, the author
has woven whimsy into dank real
ism and charitably. but tastelessly
he allows himself one relapse
: which the audience signalizes as a
seventh-inning stretch. At the
end of act two we are asking
ourselves if this wasn't priceless
performance all around but the
first scene of act three exhibits
the bargain tag. 1t has its false
note. On the other hand this
scene also boasts one Of the big
dramatic moments when the Great
Examiner is announced as coming
to Judge the unearthly cargo OF
onoe-human odds and ends. The
fearsome expectancy Of Charon's
passengers is no less acute in the
audience.
The story deals with the reac-
tons of seven people to the
ethereal consciousness that they
are dead; that they are embarked
for a shore from which there is
no return. Happily these suf.
ferers-and enjoyers-of mortal
disconnection are no different than
you and I. In fact, things are
about the same as in the hereto
fore, save for the alarms of con-
science, the growing realization,
developed by eerie intrusions that
there is an unearthly pail about
the ship, about ones passengers,
about the only visible member OF
the ships crew, the steward. The
only people who are sure that
death has tapped them for the
great adventure are not dead at
all. They are two suicidally In
clined young lovers. The others
are skeptical but with a sIxepticism
that retreats before definite-and
Observation-Disclosures.
The recurring drum beats: tho
blackness Of the night outside,
the absence of a crew or a
guiding hand on this Dead Mans
ship; these are congealing proofs
Of the debauched young Prior's
wall that he viii never see the
music halls again." Potentially

GUILD OFFERS
"THE DEVILS
DISCIPLE

A splendid production with a
splendid cast doing the splendid
stuff OF Bernard shaw is not too
splendid a description Of the
Theater Guilds offering Of "The
Devils Disciple" the, second ON
the company's repeat program Of
repertoire given at Polls last
night.
All the niceties the keen Shaw
wrote into this play. which has
long ceased to be new, are deliv-
cred intact by Basil Sydney and
his co.players. All the atmosphere
that the sarcastic Englishman ever
hoped would be crammed into the
piece whenever 1t was attempted
to put the throb Of life into what
he wrote on book pages has been
shipped in and unpacked as SO
much property by the guild. Some
Of Washington, at least, forgot
that 1924 was knocking at the
door last night in their complete
transference to the tumultuous
days in the Colonies Of 1777.
Basil sydney gives us a Dick
Dudgeon as rebellious as any one
would hope he could have been
under the tyranny of those times.
But it remained for C. III. Croker
King to give US q General Bur-
goyne as delightfully."- gentlemanly,
as thoroughly conscious Of the
humor Of the. mess, as any one
could have wished had he been
on the other side Of the fence in
those same days Of struggling for
Independence.
Not until one has viewed the
three offerings on the Guilds
list is it possible to measure the
true talents Of this organization.
Erin O'Brien- Moore, a circus
player in HE Who Gets
Slapped" turns into a minister's
wife here in 1.-THE Devil and is
honestly excellent. Others
throughout the long list are
