TRUCE SIGNED TO
END SHANGHAI WAR
Formal Settlement of Trouble
in Far East is Effected
by Agreement

Shanghai, China, May 5.-(P)-Four
months Of open warfare between
China and Japan in the area about
this city ended Thursday when repre-
sentatives of both sides signed an
arnistice.
The manner Of 1t was as unusual
as was the fighting itself. Although
thousands Of lives were sacrificed and
millions Of dollars worth of property
was destroyed. the conflict about
Shanghai never was officially a war,
because neither side declared war.
So Thursday there was no ceremon-
ial gathering Of statesmen to sign the
truce. Instead, the signatures Of neu-
trail representatives were affixed at
the British consulate and then the
document was taken to the hospital
where Japan's representatives are re-
covering from wounds inflicted by an
assassin. The Chinese spokesman
signed at his home.
The terms of the peace were not
Immediately made public but an UNI
official version indicated 1t was COM
promise bridging the differences which,
deadlocked the peace parley for q
month or more.
The Chinese were understood to
have won their demand that japanese
troops retire from their present posi-
lions into the international settle
ment. The Japanese obtained an
agreement that some of their soldiers
remain In the vicinity OF Hongkew
and Woosung.
It appeared also that Japan had
succeeded in avoiding a definite time
limit for withdrawal of her troops
Her representatives refused to accept
such a condition during all the nego-
tiations. At the same time, however
| 1t was understood that the retirement
would begin within q week and would
be completed within a month.
japanese military authorities an
nounced Thursday they had ordered
their troops to begin q withdrawal
from their positions in the interna'
tional settlement and adjacent area
It was the first step In carrying ou'
the armistice.

RECALL
AUTO TAX CUT BILL
Virginia Bill Was Passed by
Indefinitely by Roads
Committee.
By a Stat, Correspondent Of The Star.


RICHMOND. Va, February 16.-The
House Of Delegates yesterday by a vote
Of IS to AZ recalled from the legisla-
tive tomb" the bill Of Delegate I. N.
Coleman to cut the present automobile
license tax from 10 cents to so cents a
hundred pounds.
This action was accomplished through
passage Of motion by Delegate r. F..
McMurran of Portsmouth to discharge
the House Roads Committee from fur
ther consideration of the bill. which
had previously been passed by indefi-
nitely. The motion was opposed by
Delegate King Harman Of the Roads
Committee and supported by Delegate
Walter Scott Of Roanoke.
Shortly after the passage Of this mo-
to 20 to discharge the Roads Commit
tee from further consideration of the
Darden- -Eggleston bill to divert s5,o0o,-
schools. This bill also had been passed
by Indefinitely.
Following the discharge Of the COM
mittee on the license tax reduction
bill it was expected that the measure
would be brought to the floor for i'm
mediate consideration, but those spon-
soring the committee discharge made
no motion to take such action.
This measure, which also would
grant IS reduction on license fees for
small trucks, was the subject Of a
spirited hearing last Friday. When the
matter came up yesterday Delegate
Harman asked that the committee be
not discharged from further consider
alton of the matter until the commit
tee has had an opportunity to formu-
late program.
