structed to vote for Speaker John

to block a Garner instruction. These
former Texans are Governor Will

Of Chicago. Supporters of Governor

also have announced they will not
fight a Texas declaration for Speak

inc from supporters Of former Gov
ernor Alfred E. Smith All have de-
cided to play BALI with the Garner

be selected at a state convention,

PAYMENT OF FOREIGN GOVERNMENT
DEBTS IN SILVER, HAYDEN PROPOSAL

an increase in its value The demand
will arise from continual purchases
Of silver by the various foreign
Governments, who will find il to
their financial advantage to con-
tract for silver IN the open market
in order to make payments on their
indebtedness to the United States in
that metal instead of gold"
Recalling that silver is now sell
ing for less than 30 cents an ounce,
the Senator contends that if the
price can he restored to it's pre-
war level of about 60 cents as a
result of regular and sustained buy
ing by foreign governments, the in
evitable result will be the creation
of market for raw materials and
manufactured commodities in all
countries such as Mexico, China and
India where silver S the standard
of value. Amy apparent loss which
might be sustained by the United
States, he believes, would be offset
by gain in revenues resulting from
improved foreign trade.
His resolution, the Senator de-
clarec, safeguards against the pos
s.bility of foreign nations dumping
their silver coin on the United
States and ceasing thereafter TO he
users of silver money, yet holds out
special inducements to those gov
ernments which will restore their
silver coinage to uniformly estab-
lished degree of finess.

JAPS EXPECT
SUMMER WAR
IN MANCHURIA
More Nipponese Troops
VII Be Sent To
New Republic

TOXIC, May CU.P)-The Jap
anece Army looks forward to a
spring and summer of continuous
fighting in Manchuria.
Upwards of $4,000 japanese troops
are now operating in the newly
established republic of Manchukuo,
according to information here, and
the number shortly will be increased.
It is possible more than $4,000 Japa-
nese soldiers will be in the terri
tory of the New Republic within
two months.
All news of troop movements to
Manchuria is kept secret and news
papers are forbidden to mention
the subject. Reliable reports, how
ever, are to the effect the General
Staff has decided that reinforce
ments are necessary and will be
sent soon, if they have not already
departed.
It is possible, according to one
report, that some of the units which
saw duty around Shanghai, event.
ually will go to the Manchnrian
plains.
The difficulties the. Army faces
arc considerable. All the organized
Chinese armies have been broken,
but scores of bands, ranging from
200 to a thousand, are operating
attacking the japanese in rapid
raids and then retreating, looting
towns and villages as they go, in
event the populations refuse them
food and assis ance. -
Imperial consent has been given
for the Eighth Division, and the
remainder of the Tenth Division,
to be sent to Manchuria, to replace
units Of the Korean Army, whi~h
have been serving there. The
troops will arrive in Dairen and wi
be on duty in various Manchurial
towns within a month or so.
The military here insist that a
majority of the guerilla bands are
acting under orders of agents of
Marshal Chang Hsueh-liang, and
are receiving money from Peiping.
