 Washington, February 25 - (UP) The United States today anxiously awaited world reaction to it's vigorous restatement of the "open door" policy in China.
 Secretary of State Stimson is- sued his reaffirmation of faith in the doctrine of equal opportunity in a letter to Chairman Borah of the senate foreign relations com mittee, and did not communicate it officially to the world powers.
 However, copies were sent to U. s. Envoys ill London, Geneva and Tokio. And Stimson did bid for world support of his policy of non-recognition of gains by force when he said:
 "If a similar decision Con a recognition policy) should be reached and a similar position taken by the other governments of the world, caveat will be placed upon such action which, we believe, will effectively bar the legality of any title or right sought to be obtained by pressure or treaty violation"
 The salient points in Stimson's new statement of doctrine were:
 1. The United States repledges itself to uphold the "open door, policy of free trade for all in China.
 2. If the nine-power and Kel- logg pacts had been faithfully ob- served the present Far Eastern dilemma would have been avoided.

SEWARD FRESHMEN ].
 GIVEN THE "W0RKs"

The initiation given the 1932-33 Freshmen of the Seward High School by upper -classmen last mite was one of the best, according to the older students, that was ever presented in the city.
 When all the "FroSh" were as- sembled at the school-house after 8 o'clock, they were made to per form many original stunts that were products of the ingenuity of their seniors, and from all reports it required a stout constitution to weather them all.
 After this the entire Freshmen class was driven thru town like a herd of sheep, and on their way back, were compelled to pull wag- on which contained all the upper classmen, until they reached the schoolhouse again. Here refresh ments were served to all, the Fresh men then rounding off the pro- gram with a few more hilarious stunts, thus giving them the right to associate with their peers and emerge at their next classes as recognized members of the Seward High School.

STOCKS IRREGULAR
AFTER EARLY GAIN
Market Loses Part of Ad-
vance After Harvester Co.
Reduces Dividend.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, August 25-The bull
movement in stocks was accelerated
for a time today by buoyancy of prin-
cipal commodity markets, but it ran
into considerable selling during the
afternoon.
Reduction of International Harves-
ter's quarterly dividend to 80 cents
from As cents was accepted as signal
to take profits, and gains which had
ranged from 81 to SIS a share were
sharply reduced.
Several issues actually sold under last
nights final prices for a time, but the
market was bolstered by fresh buying
in the late trading. There was a
mixture of gains and losses at the fin
ish, with most changes narrow.
Trading in shares reached volume
reminiscent Of the big markets of 1929.
The turnover of around four and half
million shares made 1t one of the big
gest days of the past Two years.
A sharp rise in wheat whipped up
bullish enthusiasm in Wall Street for
a time, and that staple held up well,
closing at Chicago with net gains of
~. to ia cents a bushel, after ex-
treme gains of more than cents. Ad-
vances of more than 81 bale in cot
ton. however, were substantially re-
duced.
Although Alexander Legge, chairman
of the International Harvester Co.,
said that he shared the belief that the
bottom of the depression had been
reached, the reduction in dividend
caused considerable selling. Having
advanced at one time to a high price
of $33.87. the stock fell to close at
$2987, off $225. j. l. Case, which had
scared $5 share to S62.25, broke to a
closing price Of $58.75, where, however,
it still registered a net gain of SITS a
share.
The market showed more net losses
in the leaders than gains at the close,
although most of them we're of less
than 81 share and included U. S.
Steel, off so cents to $45.12; Sears-Roe-
buck, General Motors and General
Electric. American Telephone was
off 81.
Cotton futures, in the New York Cot
ton Exchange, closed with gains of SIS
to 10 cents bale, after surging up more
than 81, on top of yesterdays advance
of about $3.50, and hit new highs for
the season.

Lieut.. r. P. Rutledge and Sergt. o. B.
Simmons, U. S. M. c., were reported
at Marine headquarters today to have
been killed in an airplane crash yester-

several days ago with Lieut.. Clovis
Coffman and two non-commiSsioned
officers. The wreck was spotted and 1t
was thought the three men were unhurt
The flying patrol remained in the
vicinity, however, to guard against the
possibility Of an attack upon the cast

1t had not been determined this morn
ing whether Lieut.. Rutledge crashed
because of a failure of the plane or
whether he had been shot down by In
surgents. The bodies were said to have
been recovered and are expected to be

Alfred Emanuel Smith, now in his
second day at the helm of the New

a stenographer much time to look out

Not only does the former Governor
of New York dictate all his articles
and editorials, but he does SO with the
speed of a sprinter and the stamina OF
a marathon runner.
When, for example he started on the
first installment Of his book, he die
tated 5000 words at a sitting. The
stenographers at the New Outlook Oh
fee have been told of this achieve
ment and are not urging him to write
any more books. Even those famous
former editors of the old outlook.

Roosevelt, whose pictures hang in the

door in gilt letters the name Alfred
E. Smith, never bettered that record.

NEWARK, N. j., August 25.-Mrs
Amelia Earhart Putnam, the first
woman to fly the Atlantic alone,
streaked out of the west today, and
with a perfect three-point landing at
1921 am, Eastern standard time, be-
came the first woman to make non
stop transcontinental flight.
The official time for her flight was
10 hours, minutes and seconds, or
l hour, % minutes and 81 seconds more
than the transcontinental record OF II
hours, 80 minutes and 5S seconds held
by Capt. Frank Hawks. Mrs. Putnam
left Los Angeles yesterday at l2:2o'54
pm, Pacific standard time.
Although she failed to set a record
by bettering Hawks time, she estab-
lished a transcontinental speed record
for women, these being official classitl-
cation of women's records now and SET
a new distance flight record for her sex
exceeding the 2,000-mile mark made
last year by Ruth Nichols.
1t was a tired-looking blond flyer
who climbed out of the crimson and
gold high-wind Lockheed Vega today at
the airport, and was almost knocked
over by the enthusiastic crowd that
rushed out to the plane to greet her.

COULTERVILLE, Ill, August 25-
The 1000 miners, all that was left Of
the army of strikers repulsed in Frank
lin County last night, left Coulterville
today for their homes in the Central
Illinois coal fields, after holding a mass
meeting here this morning.
The evacuation of the strikers marked
the end of what strike leaders termed
one of the largest labor marches in
the history of the country. Disconsolate
and bitter at the reception they re-
ceived in Franklin County last night,
the strikers realized they were defeated
in their attempts to call fellow miners
out from the tipples of the Southern
Illinois coal fields.
Advised to Return Armed.
Pat Ansboury, West Frankfort
miner leader, at the mass meeting here
this morning suggested to the men that
they go home and return another day.
But don't come back empty handed" !"
he added He advised the men to re-
turn to Franklin County at a future
date and use methods similar to those
used by the Franklin County office:S
last night.
We are unprepared to continue our
efforts to fight the wage scale now, "
he said, but let's come back and use
different methods next time"
Camera Is Demolished.
The strikers we're in an angry mood.

ing when some one in the crowd sug-
gested he was obtaining pictures for
the use of the mine operators. Dozens
Of men ran toward him, smashed his
plates and camera and rumpled his
clothing.
A newspaper reporter jumped on top
Of an automobile and quieted the men.
He suggested they take up a collection
to pay for the damaged camera and the
men agreed.
A similar incident was reported in
Franklin County last night, when a
group of deputies are said to have
broken the camera and plates belonging
to a Chicago newspaper photographer
and ordered him to leave the county.

Mr.. Smith admits frankly that he
