Jap Troops Move;

japanese regiments which have
been stationed at Changchun,
northern terminus of the South
Manchurian railway, were on the
march today to an undisclosed
destination, according to dis
patches received here from the
area of japanese occupation.
This movement Of Japanese
troops, it was understood, began
on receipt of orders from Tokyo.
There was speculation in Chinese
military circles here as to whether
the troops moved southwark to-
ward Mukden or eastward toward
Kirin.
It was thought unlikely that
the japanese authorities would
risk arousing Russian ire by send
ing their troops into the region
north of Chungchun, as that
would place them in the Soviet
sphere of influence"

Later she said she did not
know about the 100000 and
added she would not marry, him
at any price.
GiOrgiO then came to Chicago

daShery. During this period he
married Miss MOnette. They now

Tokyo AbsoIVes Marking, But
Holds Troops Needed to
Protect Menaced Nationals

TOKYO, Oct. 26 0N.SJ-The'
Japanese government today issued
an official statement outlining its
policy with regard to the conflict
in Manchuria, denying once again
that she has any territorial aspira-
tons in rich northern regions Of
China.
The government denied charges
Of japanese aggression in Man
churia, insisting troops had been
sent into territory outside the
treaty zones solely to protect the
lives and property Of Japanese
nationals.
The staten emit reiterated
Tokyo's desire for direct negotia-
tions with China, denying the
Implication that the presence OF
troops in Manchuria meant any
attempt by Japan to exert pres
sure upon China while the nego-
tiations are in progress.
"S Points" Reiterated
The statement again made pub
lie the "five-point" proposal made
to Foreign Minister Aristide
BRAND at Geneva by Kenkichi
Yoshizawa, japanese delegate,
which Tokyo hoped would meet
the exigencies of the situation
and bring about direct negotia-
tions between China and Japan.
This proposal would have
pledged both countries to a policy
of non.aggression, and elected
promises from China to protect
Japanese nationals and respect
all Japan's treaty rights.
AS officially expressed by a
spokesman at the foreign office,
Japan holds that occupation Of a
"few points" outside the treaty
zones is necessary for protection
of japanese lives, owing to the
depredations of Chinese bandit
gangs.
AbsOIves Marking
The foreign office has made it
clear it does not believe this
guerilla activity has the sanction
of the constituted Chinese au-
thorities, but points out that
internal dissension in China
makes it impossible for the Ma
tionalist Marking government to
restrain these rowing hordes.

Attorney Lloyd Andrews, Of Phoe-
nix, indicated Mrs. Judd probably
would be tried for the premed1-
tated murder of Agnes Leroi, who
was unarmed, according to the
recovered letter.
In the letter, Mrs. Judd wrote
she killed Mrs. LerOi because
she was going to blackmail me
and hand me over to the police
after 1 killed Miss SamuelsOn."
Relating in detail how the fatal
quarrel started, Mrs. Judd wrote
she thought Mrs. Leroi was about

them to such girls, they won't
have a thing to do with you,
and when we tell p. about it,

Reconstruct Crime
Arizona investigators said they
might try to prove that Mrs
Judd shot and killed Mrs. Leroi
and Miss Samuelson as they lay
in twin beds, and then, becoming
panic stricken, used a bread knife
to hack up the body Of Miss
Samuelson and place 1t in one Of
the trunks.
Dismembering of the body
probably was executed in the
bathtub of the womah's apart
ment, detectives said:
Mrs. Judd's fury was directed
principally at Miss SamuelSOn,
which may explain why she did
mot mutiIate Miss. LerOi's body,
the officers declared.
Arizona officers said they were
convinced they could persuade
Mrs. Judd to return to Phoenix
without useless trouble"
Mrs. Judd was to be arraigned
today on a fugitive warrant from
Arizona.
The present crowded condition
of 'the Maricopa county (Phoenix)
superior courts probably would
delay the Judd trial go days, it
was said. .--.--.--

The Bristol High School Basket ball team will open it's Central Connecticut Interscholastic League, this evening in East Hartford when they meet the high school of that city in their first encounter. The locals have captured the league gonfalon four out of the past five seasons being eliminated from the championship by the team they meet this evening who scored 24-22 decision over the Manahan- men following a 72-12 shellacing in this city last year. The defeat was one of the biggest upsets accord ing to sporting scriveners about the state as Manchester High captured the trophy for the first time in five seasons. The Monahan ma chine will be picked from Captain bikes Hall, who will unquestion- ably be found in the pivot position, Gurske, Greene, Palau, LaPonte, Marc and Utke. East Hartford opened its season last Tuesday eve- ming in that city by trimming the Alumni by 45-37 score, the pro- ceeds of which went to the Rockne Memorial Fund. Following their unimpressive triumph over Terry vile High school last week in the local gym 1t is anticipated that the local charges will show some real basketball in this evenings en- counter with the McGrathmen.
