Nationalist Keep Steadily
on Way Toward City;
Excavations Start.
MAY YIELD TO JAPAN
Shantung. Concessions Are
Expected; Toxic Also to
Get Railroads.
MILES w. VAUGHN
United Press Staff Correspondent

TOXIC, May 22.-Latest uncon-
firmed advices in Toxic indicate pos
sibility that the civil strife between
the Northern and Southern forces
may be avoided through withdrawal
of the Chinese Northern forces from
Pekin.
Reports here said that General
Chang Tso Lin, leader of the North
ern forces, was negotiating with the
Japanese government on a basis
that he might order a retreat of his
Northern Army into Manchuria, his
home province.
Chang heretofore has indicated
he would resist the advance of the
Southern army with his full
strength. Although he has called
upon the Nationalist to desist their
civil Strife-to meet what he termed
was the menace of Japanese inter
vention-he has indicated through
out that he was prepared to combat
the southerners.
The latest reports, however, indi-
Gated the Manchurian war lord
might forego the promised test of
strength against the combined arm
les, of General Chang Kai Shek and
Genetral Feng Yu Hsiang.
There was no confirmation or Of
fetal statements on these reports,
however, and the Southern army was
reported advancing steadily toward
Pekin. ~
Meanwhile the wives of the
Japanese minister and legation
counsellor in Pekin have left the
city to return to Toxic. 1t was
learned here that Japanese evacua-
tons from China, since the Tsinan
incident, have totalled 500.
Japanese airmen, flying from
their new base at Pekin, were re-
ported to have sighted the army OF
General Chang Kai Shek in its
steady advance.
Meanwhile, adviceS here said that
the Marking, or Nationalist Gov
eminent, through special meeting
of the foreign affairs committee,
had decided Japan's attitude on the
Tsinan incident was conciliatory
They advised an early settlement.
This would give Japan control OF
the province of Shantung during
the civil war period, complete con-
troll of the railroads, and would not
permit the Nationalist armies to
cross Shantung.
Reports today indicated there had
been no reply to the United States
: demands that foreign lives and
property in China be protected
The demands were sent to both the
Pekin and Marking Governments.
The note asked that only reliable.
and disciplined soldiers be sent to
Pekin.
This message mentioned specific
ally that two Americans had beer
killed in the recent fighting in
Tsinan.

Need on Air Law Seen

Need of State law in Indiana
preventing unlicensed pilots from
flying unlicensed planes was urged
by Maj A. Bevan, United States
Army air corps reserve and assist
ant professor of mechanical engi-
neering of Purdue University, at the
Scientech Club luncheon Monday.
The only present restriction, he
said, is that of the Department of
Commerce preventing amateur f1iers
from transporting passengers across
a State line.
= Poor judgment of the pilots, and
not structural defect of the ship"
he said, causes 80 per cent of the
airplane accidents. If all pilots
were licensed by law and forced to
prove their flying ability, there
would be few accidents in the all" "

May Evacuate Americans

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, May 22.-Evacu-
alton of all Americans from north
China has been decided upon by
the United States Government in
case of an extreme emergency in
the increasingly menacing military
situation there, it authoritatively
was stated here today.
Plans already completed call for
withdrawal not only of civilians, but
of American armed forces as we'll.
The first step would be to remove
the legation and all civilians to
Tientsin, this to be followed by
withdrawal of American troops to
the same city.
The Asiatic fleet is concentrating
near Chefoo, within easy sailing
distance OF Tientsin, and would be
called upon if needed to remove
Americans from that city.
