CHANG KAI-S1EK SAYS CHINESE
WILL RESIST JAPANESE STATE
Former President Declares
Pu-Yi Regime Is Pure
CamoufIage.
Manchuria Still Integral Part
of China, Former Execu-
tive Asserts.
BY JAMES p. HOWE.

Copyright. 1882, by the Associated Press
NANKING, April 4.-Gen. Chang
Kai-Shek, Chinese generalissimo and
former President, told me in his
first interview with a foreign newspaper
correspondent in many months, that
Manchuria is still part of China and
that China would resist with arms any
further attacks Of the japanese, al
though she is not preparing for war.
In Manchuria, he said, the Chinese
would oppose by every peaceful means
the tricky efforts" of the Japanese Ito
set up puppet state in the three
Eastern provinces. In the eyes of the
Chinese, he added, no such govern
ment as that of Manchukuo-the name
given Manchuria under Henry Pu-Yis
new regime-ever existed.
Still Integral Part.
"Manchuria is still an integral part
of China and always will be-" he said.
mo new state exists. 'Manchukuo' is
pure camouflage by the Japanese. The
strenuous efforts to set up the new
government is entirely their handi-
work China will never tolerate such
a move, under any circumstances.
What few real Manchus are left
are nearly all in China. Their civ
ilization and culture has, to all in
tents and purposes, been assimilated
by the Chinese. There are few, if any,
representative Manchus In Manchuria
today Japanese claims to the con-
trary are pure fiction"
Asked about the Chinese govern
ment's future policy and whether she
was preparing for war, his answer was
an emphatic MOI" He snapped 1t
out, but added, in the same breath:
Believe Policy Right
Chinese will resist to the very last
the invasion of the japanese. From
the beginning of the Sino-Japanese
trouble our policy has been one OF
long resistance We believe we are
right We believe that the world, and
particularly the United States, agrees
with us in our stand. Our policy is
one of defense rather than offense.
But if the Japanese attack again
I cannot say our soldiers will not fight
back. If they do fight, if the Jap
anese launch another attack, the en-
tire country will back the Chinese SOL

May Visit United States.
As the interview ended I asked him
whether he and Nine. Chang, who is
a graduate of Wellesley, contemplated
ever visiting the United States.
YES" he replied quickly, before the
interpreter had time to translate the
question. Then, for moment, he
started to speak in English, but caught
himself and lapsed into Chinese.
When the proper time came, he said,
and conditions returned to normal in
China they might consider such trip
I'D like to see the United States" he
said, having heard much of the
country from my wife. But neither OF
us could think of leaving China as long
as Japanese troops are on our soil
That cannot be always, however, I'm
sure"

Time For Summer
 Round-U Up Is Here
Approximately Thirty Thousand Children Entering
 School This Fall in Need of Medical Once-0ver

Hartford. May 20---Approximatc- ly 30,O00 children enter Connecti- out schools each fall as kindergar- ten or first grade pupils. These children will. for the first time, leave the sheltering care of home life. They must learn to be adapt able to the requirements of their new school life. While to the adult this may seem simple step, to the child 1t means a new form of life bcSet with many and serious prob- lems. A child needs to be physi- cally and mentally fit before being subjected to such an ordeal.
 It is to give such children an armor with which to protect themselves that the summer round- ups were initiated by the National Congress of Parents and Teachers eight years ago. This "child health rodeo" aimed to reach all children just previous to their school en- trance and give them a thorough physical and dental examination.
 This work has been carried on in this state by the Connecticut Con- gress of Parents and Teachers in cooperation with the Bureau of Child Hygiene of the state de- partment of health. Mothers have been quick to respond to this opportunity and each year larg- CT number of children has been
The Waterbury Democrat., 1932-05-20

examined and more communities have made plans for the round- ups.
 The present season bids fair 10 taxe the available facilities to the utmost as parochiai as well as public schools have requested the examination for their entering chil- dren. The work started eariy In the year and at the present time 60 summer roundups have been held in 3H towns and cities. Tho 100 roundups already scheduled will be greatly increased before the season is over. Roundups have also been held in connection with regular well child conferences in 26 communities.
 The. value of these Combinations lies in the opportunity to have defects corrected before the child enters school thus removing tho handicap which would have les. sened the child's ability to cope with school problems.
 Examinations are made by local physicians whose services have been secured through the health officer in cooperation with the Bureau of Child Hygiene. Tn small communities when no physi- clan is available. examinations are made by the physicians on the state department of health staff.

 ON TAX MEASURE
Oil Tariff Is the Key Item ! and If Adopted There Is a Mountain of Amend. ments Ready for Pre-. sentatiOn

Washington, May 20-(UP)--- The senate to-day was tied up in n knot on the tariff, with leaders unable to say how long the dead lock might delay passage Of tho tax bill. direly ncded by q federal treasury nearly 5000, ,00O.ooo in the red.
 Both friends and foes of the tar. if items in the tax bill were vow Ing to hlibuster congress into a summer session unless their views prevailed Republican Leader Watson threw up his hands at the question of when he might be able to get vote on tho oil tariff, key item in the struggle.
 Watson claimed he had barely enough votes to pass the oil tariff. But the bipartisan anti-tariff coalition staved off every attempt to set time for q vote. If sena- tors make good their threats. the vote, when 1t does come. will only mark the beginning of more woe.
 Senator Tydings. democrat, Maryland, waved before the senate c stack of 500 amendments which he declared he would introduce immediately if the oil tariff was
 Senator Norris, republican,. Ne- braskn,. asserted he and othors, in the samc eventuality' would offer farm relief proposals as amend. ments to the tax bill.

 Reports reached the Capitol Ahat President Hoover might intervene with special statement or an- other message renewing his appeal for speedy passage of the tax bill. Presence at the Capitol of some of Mir Hoovers advisors showed his keen interest in tho situation.
