The petition was granted on the
grounds that the court, in recently
appointing a ury Of appraisers to
lay out the road and assess the
damages therefor, acted without
jurisdiction in that no legal notice
was givcn to the plaintiff, r. ].
Kleberg, ST., as to a hearing, be-
fore the defendants, as to laying
out of the road as provided by the
laws of the state.
The petition further alleges that
since the defendants have attempt
ed to deprive the plaintiff of his
property without due process of
law, he has been deprived Of the
rights zen to him under the con-
stitution Of the United States and
the state of Texas; that no public
necessity for the road existed in
that a public road from Lyford in
the county to a point near the Ar
royo Colorado, already exists.
Further allegations were: that
the road the court attempted TO
open is primarily to allow access to
the shores of Laguna Madre and
that there are no citizens located
upon the lands of Share ga of the
San Juan de Carricitos Grant in
Willacy county who have p~etitioned
the defendants foT a road of any
kind; that there being already a
road affording access to Laguna Ma
Dire, there is no need for another;

Element. of the situation growing out
of events in Manchuria had been
exhausted. Entire responsibility for
all consequences were placed on the
Chinese government, whose answer
to its ultimatum were termed un-
satisfactory in content and hypo-
critical in tone.
The ultimatum Of July Is was
contained in a lengthy note, which
demanded cancellation of orders
initiating against them, and sub
mission of questions arising out of
the situation to diplomatic negotia-
tons.
Question Negotiable
Tuesday night a telegram was re-
ceived here from the Marking gov
eminent explaining the full text of
the Russian ultimatum had not ar
rived but the question was negotia-
BILE and former Ambassador Chu
Zao Yang would return to his post
to undertake such negotiations.
Almost simultaneously the Nan
king government framed it's formal
reply to Moscow, which arrived here
today. This was understood to have
demanded I'D release of Chinese
imprisoned in Russia; (2) guaran-
tees against future repressions OF
Chinese. and to have expressed for
NAL intention of sending Chu to
Moscow to undertake negotiations
for settlement of the crisis.
Anti Chinese sentiment, some of
1t among the Chinese expatriates
themselves, has grown here since
the raids on the consular offices in
Manchuria on May 81. With seiz-
ure Of the railway last week It
reached considerable proportions
and Moscow fo- the past few days
has been almost continually alive
with demonstrations for 'the social
fatherland" and against "the Chi
nese faScists."

CRIPPLED MAINE MAN
OPERATES LARGE FARM

EAST LIVERMORE, Me. (p.--Al-
tough an accident in the woods eight
years ago cost Stanley H. Morrison one
leg and rendered the other useless, he
still runs an 1S0-acre farm and has de-
vised enterprising methods of mer-
chandising.
Mr.. Morrison uses a wheel chair which
carries him about the house and on
which he can descend to the porch or
the ground.
The coming of his disaster was at
first severe setback to this active man,
who had already transformed the farm,
his family homestead, into vastly i'm
proved place.
He cast about for new ideas. The
canning business appeared to be an
opening. He installed equipment which
he has expanded. Last year the jelly
he put up amounted to Is tons. In ad-
dition. he put up mince meat from his
own recipe. apples for apple pies, to-
matoes, mustard pickles, sweet and sour
pickles and other farm products.

ROAD BOND ISSUE
BILL PASSAGE SEEN
Prince Georges Would Add
$4,000 to Half Million
Highway Measure.
BY GEORGE PORTER,
staff CORRESPONDENT of The Star,

UPPER MARLBORO. Md. March H.
Early passage of the bill introduced in
the State Senate Friday by Senator
Iansdale G. Sasscer, authorizing the
floating of a $550,000 bond issue for the
building of lateral roads and the pur-
chase OF rights Of way. is anticipated
by the leaders of Prince Georges Coun-
ty here.
Although it had been announced the
bill would provide for 100000 only. the
county commissioners and members Of
the delegation in the General Assembly
believed it wise to add $4,000 for the
purchase of such rights of way as might
be necessary. so that the full half
million dollars could be devoted to the
construction of roads.
Rhode Island Avenue Extension.
The chief right of way 20 be obtained
Is said to be for the extension of Rhode
Island avenue. The understanding he
tween the State and county on this
project has been that the CORNER would
bear the cost of building the extended

right of way. AS Il matter Of faC, the
State has already obtained practically
all of the property necessary or this
work, so that the county will N effect
be merely reimbursing the State for
what has already been spent.
The extension of Rhode Island ave-
nue. and the elimination of the Hyatts-
vile grade crossing are invariably Iii ked
together in the program for the better
ment of Prince Georges County high
ways In the case of the grade cross
Ing, the State purchased a new right
Of way.
In Harmony With Gov. Richie.
In regard to the Rhode Island ave-
hue project the county bill harmoniZes
with Gov. Albert G. Ritchic's proposed
S4000000 road building program. which
lists the building Of that thoroughbred
extension among It's important items.
Had not provision Deen made in Sem
ator Sasscers bill for the purchase of
rights of way, another bill authorizing
this expenditure would have been neces-
sary, and this seemed both unwise and
unnecessary. party leaders explained.
