.LAVAL'S THIRD
CABINET MEETS
QUICK DEFEAT
BY RALPH HEINZEN
United Press Staff Correspondent


PARIS, Feb. 16. The third
cabinet of Premier Pierre Laval,
organized on January 13 of this
year, was defeated in the senate
today on a question of confidence.
Immediate resignation of the gov
ernment was in order The over
throw came in the midst of the
arms conference at Geneva.
The vote was on whether to post
pone debate on the governments
policies until February 26.
Premier Laval formed his first
government on January 81, 1881
after Aristide BRAND had refused
the assignment. 1t was far from
having a comfortable majority, be-
ing opposed by the radical So
cialists and was built mainly from
the old majority of Andre Tarm-
dieu.
The world shaking economic
events of 1881, the imminence of
the general election, and other po-
litical factors combined to keep the
young premier in power. The cabi-
net was reconstructed with few
changes last month after the death
of Andre Maginot. minister of war,
and resignation of Aristide BRAND
as foreign minister.
The cabinet was overthrown by a
vote of 157 to 1874.
Laval decided to resign immed-
lately.

RUSSIA SENDS
REINFORCEMENTS
TO MANCHURlA

TOXIC, Feb. 16. U.P) - Soviet
Russia is reinforcing garrisonS on
the Manchurian border, possibly
for protection of Russian interests
in Manchuria, the government was
informed today.
An official announcement said
the information came from an un-
disclosed European capital
Il was said that Japan has no
objection to such a move. Russian
Ambassador Troyanowsky said the
reports were unfounded.
Although Japan has not replied
to a Soviet proposal for nom
aggression pact made by Foreign
CommiSsar MeXim Litvinoff when
japanese Foreign Minister Ken
Kichi was in Moscow enroute O
Toxic from Paris, relations be-
tween Japan and Russia have not
been outwardly strained by the
Manchurian situation.
The Russians agreed that if the
Chinese, as half owners of the
Chinese Eastern railway, were
willing, Japan could transport
troops over the railway by paying
for the transportation of zach
man, as Japan offered to do.
Russia has expressed fear that
White (CzariSD Russians at Har-
bin would make that city head
quarters for plots against the
Soviets after the japanese entered
the city. Japan, however, gave
every assurance that RuSsion in
terests there and in other parts
of the Soviet sphere of influence
would be respected.
Dispatch of additional reinforce
ments to Shanghai had not been
approved by the cabinet today al
though the government announced
that the troops would have to be
added to protect japanese lives
and property. Lieut.. Gen. Sado
Araki, minister of war, asked for
additional troops due to the in
crease of Chinese forces at
Shanghai.

ly not fair to the minority-to those
who are in political opposition to
him-to place in his hands S375,-
100000 with the power to say where
it shall be expended. to give to a
governor if he wishes, to deny a
governor If he desires, to withdraw
funds from a governor If in his
opinion the money is not being
properly expended by the states.
1T might be humanity impossi-

publican orator tells the country
that Mr.. Hoover has saved the
United States and is saving man
kind.
"A distinguished partisan speak

 There are many obstacles that must be continually combated in the Indian nation the speaker stated, enumerating among them the evils of drinking of intoxicants and the woeful lack of education or the people in general. The lat ter is a serious handicap to the country he said for the great masses are kept in ignorance under the present rule.
 Great efforts are being made to educate the people and Mahatma Gandhi and his followers have done much to show the Indian people what they believe to be the proper course to pursue.
