TWO CHINESE
GENERALS LEAD
new CIVIL WAR
'IronsideS' Troops in Clash
With Armed Forces of
Marking Regime.

By United Press
SHANGHAI, Sept. PA new
civil war has broken out in China.
Despite belief the current contro-
versy between Marking and Mos
COW would unite the Chinese in a
common cause, the political antag-
onisms, which have existed in China
since the revolution, flared up
afresh.
General Chang Fat-Kwei's Fourth
division, known as the "Ironsides, -
clashed with troops of the national
government in western Hupeh.
The national government sent an
order disInissing General Chang
from service for moving his troops
without authority.
The "IronSides" division, appar-
emily, was being moved cross-coun-
try from Ichang for the possible
purpose of reaching the Peiping-
Hankow railway for more strategic
position against central government
troops
It was understood here that Gen
eral Chang intended to make an
effort to form a juncture with the
armies of Marshal Feng HUI Siang
so-called Christian general" who
has been at odds with the Marking
government since he was dismissed
from various posts with the national
government.
The object of forming this alli-
ance, it was believed, was for a con-
certed attack and a revolt against
Marking. Latest reports reaching
here said Marshal Feng, who had
promised General Chang Kaishek
head of the national government
to leave China had broken his
promises.

Nonpartisanship Pledged
I'VE pledge ourselves to establish
ment of a nonpartisan city man
ager government in Indianapolis
We will put city affairs on the same
basis of efficiency as the business
of any successful private corpora
ton. The interests of the people
always shall be paramount. In this
campaign, we represent no political
party, clique, or faction. We rep
resent all the people of indianapolis
without regard to race, creed or po-
utical affiliation.
I'VE pledge ourselves to employ as
city manager the best man we can
find, who, because of character,
ability, and experience. is equipped
for the job.
THE sole basis on which employees
will be retained or chosen, will be
their ability to render honest, eft1-
cient, and loyal service to the city,
entirely divorced from politics or
any other consideration.
ut is fundamental to the good
government of any community that
there shall be a fair and equitable
distribution of taxes, that public
contracts be awarded on competi-
tive basis without favoritism, and
we pledge ourselves thereto.
Contract Valid
I'VE believe that the franchise
agreement between the city OF In
dianapOliS and the CltlzenS Gas
Company is a valid contract. We
pledge that every possible legal
means be employed to obtain and
operate the gas company for the
people of Indianapolis.
1--WE pledge ourselves to budget
capital resources of the city over
period of years, that their invest
ment may be planned in an orderly
way in the interest of the city as
a whole, and to the prudent and
economical expenditure of public
funds so undue and unreasonable
tax rates may be avoided.
1--WE pledge every effort for the
early completion of track elevation
and elimination of railroad grade
crossings.
I'VE pledge ourselves, with the
cooperation of the whole people, to
strive to make Indianapolis, under
city manager government, one OF
the best governed cities OF the
nation"
