BY JOSEPH ii. BAIRD
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Sept. %. (U.P)-
Conflicting reports from China and
Japan regarding happenings In
Manchuria were before Secretary of
State Stimson today as he studied
means to maintain peace.
In reply to identical notes to both
powers, urging cessation of hostili-
ties in Manchuria and peaceful set
tlement of their dispute, the Sec
retary received these statements.
From Japan: Every care has
been taken, and will continue to be
exercised by the Japanese forces to
observe all the requirements of in
ternational law and international
agreements, and to avoid any action
that is calculated to prejudice an
amicable settlement of the differ
ences between Japan and China"
From China: While the jap
anese government declares that
II has taken all measures to pre-
vent the aggravatiOn of the sit
tuatiOn and that the troops will
be forthwith withdrawn from
the occupied areas. Free acts
of war are still being committed
by japanese troops"
Japan thanked the United States
for its fairness of views" toward
the Manchurian situation and said
1t was confident" that tension III
Manchuria could be ended "by
frank and unimpassioned discus
sion' with China. 1t was recalled
here that China already had de-
clined to treat directly with Toxic
No Mention of Treaty
The Japanese note made no ref
erence to Stimson's mention of ex-
isting treaties bearing on the Man
churian situation, but China called
attention to the "sanctity" of trea
ties. particularly the Kellogg pact
forbidding recourse to war. China
expressed the earnest hope" tina.
most effective means" will be taken
to maintain international agree
mentS.
The Chinese government" the
note from Peiping stated, Can con-
ceive no other way to satisfy the
requirements of international law

WASHINGTON, Sept. 90. (U.P -
The biggest potential obstacle TO the
denomination of President Hoover
appeared, in the opinion Of most
political leaders, to have been defi-
nitely removed today.
Former President Calvin Coolidge
has just written magazine article
which is generally construed here
as q pledge of support for the re-
nomination OF Mr. Hoover. Mr..
Coolidge was regarded as having in
dicated a desire that he be elimi-
mated from consideration as pos
sible candidate.
Mr.. Coolidge's pronouncement
In support of President Hoover
and against his own presiden-
tial candidacy in 1892 puts to
rest" the question of Mr.. HOOv-
er's denomination, Chairman
Fess of the Republican national
committee, said.
Mr.. Coolidges attitude as ex-
pressed in his article was well un-
derstood by most of the country be-
fore it was made" Fess said. 1T
ought to be a complete answer TO
the promoters of anti-administra-
ton sentiment 1t puts to rest the
question of the denomination of
President Hoover and will be de-
termining factor in his assured re-
election"
The article in this issue of the
Saturday Evening Post appearing
on the news-stands today, was the
subject OF discussion throughout the
