Action Despite Efforts
to Insure Peace.
BY d. c. BESS
United Press STAFF Correspondent

MANCHULI, Manchuria, Aug. 3.
Armed forces of the two giant re-
publics of the far east-Russia and
China-continued to face each other
today, ready for action, in spite of
persistent reports from the interior
of negotiations for a peaceful set
tlement Of their dispute.
The United Press correspondent
visited no-man's land today for a
closeup of the armies which await
ed commands either to begin an at
tack or to begin retreating to their
own peace-time quarters.
The armies were entrenched along
the hillsides, within sight of each
other, the Red army on the Siberian
side Of the border, the Chinese army
on the Manchurian side.
There was little activity to be
noted anywhere, except for daily
maneuvers by the soviet airplane
squadrons.
Although the Chinese force

seemed entirely to be inadequate
for an attack, in the event actual
war broke out between the two ma
tions. the officers of the Nationalist
army told the United Press that in
tie event Of an attack by the Rus
slams the Chinese troops would be
able to retreat toward Vailar, where
the main Chinese forces were con-
centrated.
The officers expressed full con-
fdence in their troops, saying they
we're well-trained and ready to re-
sist any possible advance by the
Russian troops.
The city of Manchuli quietly is
awaiting the newest developments.

He talk ed with defendants wife. and sl in- formed him that her husband is good t0 her and to her four children. She said that in the eight years they had been married, she being Brassord's second wife, she had never seen him under the influence of liquor.

 While the charge of driving drunk is not to be lightly taken, in view of the special circumstances in the case. Attorney Johnson said he was willing to recommend a fine of Sl00 and thirty days jail sentence, the jail sen tence to be suspended for one year If during that period the fine is paid. the jail penalty will be dismissed
 Attorney Miron sought to have a part of the fine remitted, but the court felt that enough leniency had been shown the defendant in giving him a year in which to pay In addition to the si00 fine, costs were taxed against Brassord amounting to Si3t4. He also automatically loses his license to drive a car.
