CHINESE FEAR
RECURRENCE OF
MOSLEM RIOTS
Horrible SlaughterS May
Be Renewed for
Revenge.
BY RANDALL GOULD


SHANGHAI, Sept. 28.-Authentic
details received today from Kansu
concerning the slaughter of 10000
MoSlems and hundreds of Chinese
during the Moslem revolt at Tao
chow in May, one of the most ap-
palling tragedies in history, revealed
the fact that Chinese hurled them
selves upon the Moslem population
with murderouS fury after they dis
covered that 700 of their people had
been killed by MoSlems in one day,
Moslem women were reported to
have massacred 500 Tibetan women
and children. Villages were burned
and looted and living victims were
flung into the rivers to perish.
Missionaries Unframed
In July an army of 5000 Chinese
troops arrived and killed 800 Mos
lens in the Taochow district, while
the Tibetans slew more than 1000
MoSlems, who were fleeing along the
Hsiatsang valley.
When the Chinese entered the old
city of Tao-Chao they killed hum
dreds of Moslems, including many
who sought refuge in the missionary
homes. The missionaries, among
whom were several Americans, were
unframed.
In August, peace was restored and
the Moslems returned to TaochoW.
The males ranging from Is to SO
years of age we're separated from
the rest and taken outside of the
city gats, presumably to obtain food.
Once the Chinese had them beyond
the gates, they started a new
slaughter. Some 5000 Moslenls were
murdered.
Live in Daily Fear
Moslem women discovered what
had happened and rushed out of
the gates. When they recognized
their own kin among the dead, many
mothers committed suicide, leaving
their babies to starve.
The streets of Tao-ChoW were
strewn with corpses, and much
property was demolished.
The city lives in daily fear of a
recurrence of these horrible scenes:
since there are indications that the
Moslems intend to renew hostilitieS
as soon as they can reassemble their
forces against the Chinese.

THEREFORE, all things whatso-
n ever We would that men should
do to you, do We even so to them:
for THIS is the law and the prophets.
Matthew 7:12.

i peace / give unto you; not as
the world giveth, give I unto you.
Let not your heart be troubled,

COMMENT
"These three verses have come
most often into my mind and have
influenced my life, I think more
chan any other single ones. The
first I have used to stimulate my
ambition and to make myself de-
pendable and honest; the second to
develop fair and honest treatment
of others; the third to help me to
be courageous and unafraid. The
prayer I have offered most, and
thousands upon thousands of times,
is to be good and to do good and
to follow the master.

PANTACES CASE
Sentence Delay First Step
of Defense Battle for
Probation.

BIZ United Press
LOS ANGELES, Sept pa
physical collapse which prevented
the appearance of Mrs. Lois Pan
tages in superior court Friday to be
sentenced for the automobile crash
death of Juro Rokumoto was be-
1ieved TO foreshadow vigorous de-
tense attempt to obtain probation.
Superior Judge Carlos S. Hardy
continued sentencing until Monday
after hearing the report of DR.. John
B. Barrows, whom he had appointed
to visit Mrs. Pantages in her home.
Attorneys for the millionaire theater
mans wife said they did not be-
lieye she would be able TO appear at
that time.
The district attorneys office had
indicated that it will not oppose
parole on the manslaughter con-
viction, but will leave the dis
position Of the case entirely to the
court.
Suffers From Shock
DR.. Barrow, president of the Los
Angeles Medical Association, re-
ported that Mrs. Pantages had a
temperature one degree above nor
NAL, and was suffering with a severe
cold with attendant bronchitis and
severe nervous shock from the strain
of the trial.
7 Go not think 1t would be wise
TO bring her here today, but I think
she will be well enough Monday"
Judge Hardy explained that the
reason he had allowed Mrs. Pan
tages liberty pending sentence was
that he believed it would be inhu-
man to place a woman behind the
bars in her condition.
State Starts Probe
Meanwhile, District Attorney
Buron Fits began his promised
grand jury investigation of asserted
perjury by witnesses for Mrs. Pan
tages. Stylishly gowned women
waited in the anteroom today to be
called before the grand jury. Prom
tnent among the witnesses we're
Mrs. Bertha Jacobs, who left Mrs.
Pantages' automobile a few minutes
before the fatal crash, and John
Conterno, service station operator,
who testified that another car
forced Mrs. Pantages to the wrong
side Of the road.
Alexander Pantages, husband of
Mrs. Pantages, will go to trial next
Tuesday on charge of attacking
Eunice Pringle, II, dancer.

LETTER WRITER
De LUXE FACES
ACTION BY U. S.
Bio Business Calls Youth
and Disregard for Order
Is Alleged.

Big business has lure for James
Gibson. 81, of 2729 Highland place,
which makes it difficult for him to
keep out of trouble.
Arrested on postal fraud charge
last spring as president of the Elec-
ro-Chemical Corporation OF Amer
lea" young Gibson was described
by Alexander G.. Cavins, assistant
district attorney, as letter writer
de luxe"
Gibson was charged with placing
Turing advertisements for radio bat
terry eliminators in magazines, re-
ceiving many replies accompanied
by checks, which he kept without
sending the eliminators.
Too Busy Writing
He was too busy writing high
sounding letters to find time to
manufacture any eliminators," Cav
ms told Federal Judge Robert c.
Baltzell.
When the boys attorneys pleaded
he had been interested intensely in
radios for years, had a "one-track"
mind and some day might be
famous inventor, Batlzell released
him and continued the case with the
injunction to keep out of business
for hiSelf."
Friday Baltzell ordered Gibson
taken into custody again, pending
investigation of reports he was
back in business"
Get New Complaints
The order was issued after Postal
Inspector A. G. Garrigus told the
court he had complaints from firms
who had sent goods. upon Gibson's
orders, to the Socket Power Lab
oratories," without receiving their
money.
Garrigus charged the youth, with
his big business complex, had sent
a statement to a Wall Street flnan-
cial firm showing "assets Of $4,000
with $1,000 cash on hand"
The inspector reported that one
complainant, who wrote the cor
poration" asking why no answer had
been made to letter, was informed
the corporation was very large and
had many divisions, and the letter
probably had been lost because it
was not addressed to the supply
division"
