 A Spoken Word
 Takes Its Flight

Paavo Nurmi, the sensa- tional Finnish Runner, is considered a man who shuns publicity.
 He told his manager he was going to steal down to the Finnish District and have a real home-like meal. And said he, "hopes no one recognizes him, as he doesn't I like to be made a fuss over" A Finn, standing close by, happened to hear that last part. Away he ran! When Nurmi entered the Finnish Neighborhood, he was surrounded by a great army of forewarned admir- CTS.

London Disturbed by Reports of
Broken Negotiations.

LONDON, June IS P.-Official
quarters in London have received no
confirmation of the report that ne
gotiations at Shanghai for the settle
ment of differences arising from the
recent riots there have been broken
However officials expressed the view
that If the report is true serious COM
plicatiOns may follow and that the
rupture of the Shanghai negotiations
probably will affect adversely the
more important negotiations and COM
municationS now under way at
Peking.
1t was pointed out by the London
officials that although the Shanghai
negotiations dealt entirely with local
affairs their Abandonment probably
would be used by Chinese antiforeign
elements to stir up trouble throughout
the country, especially in the Peking
and Canton areas, where, according to
reports here, there now is much feel
ing against foreigners.
The present communications be-
tween the foreign diplomatic corps at
Peking and the Chinese government
were described by authorities here as
"amicable but fruitless," and it was
added that the Shanghai complications
might cause a serious rupture.

ASKS PUBLIC TO TELL
OF DRIVING BREACHES
Eldridge Then Proposes to Call AL
legged Offenders to Give
Explanation.

Recognizing the value of a citizenry
on the alert for violators of the traffic
laws, Traffic Director Eldridge today
drew up a plan whereby complaints by
witnesses of fragrant violations will
be referred to alleged offenders for
an official explanation.
If the motorist involved refuses to
reply to the allegation made against
him, the complaint will be filed in a
special record for consultation in the
event Of future violations charged.
Director Eldridge believes that if a
motorist is the victim of a mistake or
of the vented grudge of some enemy,
he will readily come to the traffic di-
rector's office and make satisfactory
explanation. The fact that he ig-
nores the protest will be taken as self
evidence of an infraction, of great
value for record purposes.
A form letter to be used in adviS-
ing motorists of complaints register
ed regarding their driving has been
drawn up and will be printed.

SHANGHAI, June l8.-Negotiations
here between representatives of the
foreign diplomatic corps at PekinS
and Chinese delegates, seeking ad
justment of recent disturb Dances, were
broken off today, owing to divergence

A wireless message from Chung

Chung -kiang is a treaty port of from

about $50 miles above Hankow, at the
confluence of the Kia-ling with the
Yangtse Rivers.

the British and japanese consulates
recently were attacked and the British
concession invaded, reported a gradual
Improvement in the situation there.
Reports from Hankow said quiet
prevailed and that the number of
foreign guards had been reduced, al
though a strong emergency force still
was maintained.
Reports from Swatow said 1t was ex-
pected that a shipping strike would
start there.
No news was received from Annoy

The shipping strike became more
serious today when coolies and lighter
