 SHANGHAI TO MARKING

GENEVA, Mar. T.-The small na- tions indirectly joined hands with China in a united demand that the League of Nations general assem- ply vigorously support a policy of protecting weak countries from their more powerful neighbors.

JAPs TAKING ADVANTAGE
 OF CHINESE IS CLAIM

SHANGHAI, Mar T. Chinese military leaders are worried over the large number of Japanese forces which are being landed con- tinually in this city and who are further consolidating the Japanese in this area. Protests have been made to Tokyo but the Japanese claim that these reinforceemntS were enroute to Shanghai before the hostilities there ceased.
 The Chinese leaders also said that they retreated to the outskirts of Shanghai so that Japan could be given an opportunity to with draw her forces but the present action of the Japanese makes it ap- pear that i've are defeated"
 The Chinese also assert that the Japanese are making terms which cannot possibly be carried out by the Chinese who declare that Ja- pan has designs on more territory than Shanghai.

BAND LEADER SOuSh DIED SUNDAY AT HIS
 HOME IN NEW YORK

NEW YORK, Mar 7.-The music world was shocked to have learned Sunday of the death of John Philip Sousa, famed American composer and band leader. He was TT years old. His widow, two daughters and a son survive him SOuSa died from a heart attack.
 A career of more than 50 years before the public, during which he composed more than 300 works and had directed his famous band in all the principal cities of the world, made John Philip Sousa one of the most widely known of con temporary American musicians.
 Although an accomplished muSi- clan early in his teens, it was his work as director of the United States Marine Corps Band that served as the stepping stone to a position of prominence in the mus ical world
 SOuSa became a member Of the Marine Corps band when only 13 years of age, through a scheme matched by his father, a member of the band, to htwart the boys plans to run away with a circus band.
 John Philip Sousa was born at Washington, D O., November 6 1854, the son of Antonio and Eliza beth TrinkhauS Sousa. His musical education began at the age of six and included vocal study as we'll as instruction on the violin, piano and several other instruments. Millions who had never seen him were familiar with his likeness from his pictures which, until the World War, always showed. him with a neatly trimmed beard When he shaved off his beard, some said he did it because he did not want to look like on old fellow among thousands of young huskies, all anxious to get a chance to go over seas.
 The bandmaster always of a jolly, humorous nature, made the loss of his beard the subject of a story, declaring that it was respon- sible for winning the war. He used to put it that the Kaiser, when he heard Sousa had shaved off his beard, quit, declaring that there was no use fighting a people who would make such sacrifices.
 Sousa was responsible for start ing many soloists, both vocal and instrumental.

of the investigation or give any information regarding Lindbergh'S alleged communication with the two men.
 Baby Is Happy
 It appears that Lindbergh has been doing his own private inves- tigating while the police are re- lentlessly pursuing other clues. If the Lindbergh baby Is being cared for expertly by his kidnappers, he is happy and the absence of his parents will not frighten or upset him. He is used to all these things. This is the knowledge that keeps Anne Morrow Lindbergh at Hope well from going mad with worry as the frantic search for her 2O- months-old son continues fruitleSS. If they bring him back safe and sound he will never know anything has happened to him, she said.

FRENCH STATESMAN! ; ARISTIDE BRIAND.
 PASSES N PARIS
APOSTLE OF PEACE" IN WORLD DISCUSSIONS FOR OUT
 HAVING WAR

R 5, Mar. [. (A9 - ArLStida Briand, veteran French statesman and an apostle of peace" died here today at the age of 69 years. Death was caused by heart trouble.
 He was co-author of the Kellogg Briand pact outlawing war, nov ing spirit in the Locarno treaties which guaranteed the sanctity of the frontiers of Germany, Belgium and France and in 1880 was the originator of a comprehensive scheme for an economic union of Europe.
 He formulated the French pol icies connected with disarmament,
 always insisting upon safeguards for national security as prerequi- site to reduction in means Of de- fenSe At the same time he plead ed constantly for an united French and international will against war and distinguished sharply between defensive and aggressive conflicts. In his own country, he was II times premier, 16 times foreign minister, four times minister of the interior, thrice minister of justice
 (which carries with the office the
 vice-presidency of the French cab ineO and twice minister of educa-
 tion. All told, he held posts in g
 cabinets and on March A, 1881,
 celebrated a full quarter century
 of service in official life.
 1 Only one gift, the presidency of the French republic, was denied
 him by his fellow parliamentar- ians. Strangely that defeat came after one of his most dramatic tri-
 umphS, an endorsement by the
 Chamber of Deputies of his for eign policies after they had been under prolonged fire by the Ia tionalist elements of his country The vote encouraged Briand'S friends to put him forward as a presidential candidate in oppoSi-- tion to Paul Doumer, even though the election was only four days away. He reluctantly consented, but on the first ballot, taken by the
 combined Chamber and Senate at Versailles on May l3, 1881, Doumer had comfortable lead and Briand withdrew.
 AriStide Pierre Henri Briand was
 born at Nantes, Brittany, May 28,
 1862, of Breton father and Ven deean mother. They were of peas
 ant stock but had deserted the land to engage in retail commerce. Dur ing his childhood, they took over a little saloon in the rough seaside
 town of St. Nazaire, well known
 in the United States as the first port of debarkation of the A.E.F.
 Thus it was that three sons of tavern-keeperS Briand, Gustav Stresemann and Benito MusSolini were the central figures in post war European diplomacy for a con-
 siderable period, as foreign minis terS of France, Germany and Italy. The combination was broken by the death of Stresemann and Il Duce's handing over his portfolio in 1929 to Dino Grandi
 M. Briand was a bachelor and man of wealth. Often it was re-
 ported that he was about to marry and once, when his name was link ed with that of a beautiful young French woman, he made this char acteriStic denial:
 No young woman would want to marry me and I would not marry an T

Trouble In Paradise, a light
and clever romantic comedy of
love among European crooks, is the
attraction for tonight and tomor-
row night at United Artists the
atre, with Miriam Hopkins, Kay
Francis, Herbert Marshall, Charles
Ruggles, Edward Everett Horton,
c. Aubrey Smith and Robert Greig
III the cast.
Based on the play "The Honest
Finder, which was q tremendous
stage success, Trouble In Para
disc" is fast moving and at times
risque, but in it's latter phases 1t is
SO cleverly handled that it is not
in the least offensive.
With Horton and Ruggles hand
ling the comedy roles, numerous
laughs are guaranteed, particular
ly when the pair combine forces
in their efforts to find desirable
ladies for themselves. Most essen
tial of the desirabilities is that
they should have plenty of money
incidentally Ruggles has a sober
role throughout the entire picture
and is just as funny as when he
is supposed to be intoxicated
Miss Hopkins and Marshall are
cast as the clever crooks who work
together to fleece the unsuspect-
ing among European society,
Efforts of Miss Francis, cast as
a wealthy widow, to win the af-
fections of the handsome crook,
leads to struggle between the
two women, which provides plenty
Of humor and the latter is intensi-
tied by the efforts OF Ruggles and
Horton to switch the attentions of
the ladies TO themselves.
Much of the action takes place
IN Venice, famed for its romance
and offering opportunity for some
exceptional scenes.
