BY the Associated Press.
NANKING, May 19-The safety of
so Americans, most of them mission
aries, was threatened today at Pengpu
by host of 20, 900 Chinese Communists
in Northern Anhwei Province.
The Communists had surrounded a
force of 1000 Marking troops west of
Pengpu and threatened to cut the
Tientsin- Pukow Railway south of there,
blocking the arrival Of reinforcements
to aid the embattled government troops.
Reports from Americans at Pengpu
said they doubted the Communists
would be able to capture the city, but
the apprehension was acute.
Requested by Legation.
The Chinese government rushed
troops to Pengpu last Monday at the
request of the American legation. Three
thousand troops were sent from here
and another division from Soochow.
Apparently it was this force which was
reported surrounded by the greatly su-
perior force.

SECURITY FIRST
IN HERR|OT POLICY
World Police Force Indorsed
by Probable Head of New
French Regime.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, May 19.-Edouard Herriot,
who probably will direct the new French
government either as premier or foreign
minister, gave an inkling Of the external
policy he will pursue by unequivocally
approving today statement by Senator
Joseph Paul-Boncour that Frances pro-
gram remains national security, arbitra-
ton and disarmament, in the order
named.
NJ. Herriot indorsed the Paul -Boncour
suggestion that France study the ques-
ton of making some reduction in
armaments as a step toward disarma-
ment, thereby showing the sincerity of
the French attitude toward Germany.
The statement of NJ Herriot, leader
Of the powerful Radical-Socialist party
which made great gains in the last
Chamber of Deputies elections, was of
considerable Importance because even
If he does not become the premier, he
Is expected to WELD more influence than
eny other member of the new cabinet.
In the event he does not head the
ministry he probably will take the
foreign affairs portfolio.
On the question of reparations, Mr..
Herriot declared himself for the
Paul-BoncoJr doctrine, which is.
Cd Maintain European solidarity;
(2) permit no rupture in the equilibrium
between credits and debts at the ex-
pense Of the French taxpayer.
Although receptive to the suggestion
of armament reductions, the Radical
Socialist leader strongly approved the
plan presented at the Geneva Confer
ence by Andre Tardieu. This plan calls
for international security through an
international police force to be super
vised by the League of Nations.
Some Paris commentators deduced
from this that M. Herriot would make
arms reductions dependent upon ac-
ceptance at Geneva of the French plan
