Reports from Tokyo today
stated that $4,000 more troops
probably would be sent on
their way to Shanghai soon, if
needed, in utter defiance of the
protest against troop invasion
filed by the United States and
other powers.
The Chinese also have been
getting ready for the battle to
the death" which leaders have
been urging.
Chinese Morale High
With morale high, Chinese have
been busy erecting barricades,
digging trenches, laying barbed
wire, and planting well-hidden
machine gun nests where they
best will NOW down approaching
japanese forces.
Efforts at effecting peace con-
tinued to fail. Both Chinese and.
Japanese leaders remained firm
in refusing to accede to even the
less drastic of the others de-
mands, and the intervention Of
foreign diplomats was fruitIess.
American Minister Nelson T.
Johnson, preparing to return to
Marking, said he would continue
to keep in touch with local and
foreign officials in Shanghai re-
garding peace moves.
Johnson denied reports that
Washington was backing the
Japanese plan for neutral zones
about Chinese cities, proposed
several days ago, and also that
the United States had been active
in formulating the scheme.

ADVANCE IN STERLING
LAID TO SPECULATION
Recent Gains in British Currency
Have Featured Foreign Ex-
change Market.
BY JOHN L. COOLEY,
ssociated Press Financial Writer.


NEW YORK, March 29.-An ex-
traordinary serial story, THE Adven-
lures of the Pound Sterling" is running
through the financial news columns
these days.
A denouement is not yet in sight.
Efforts are being made to foreSee it,
but so far. despite the swiftly moving
installments, the climax is obscure.
Back of sterling's newly found
strength, foreign exchange dealers point
out, is undoubtedly wave of specula-
tion which British authorities have
sought in the recent past to check. In
asmuch as spectators have, or think
they have, good reasons for a given
course of action, much gossip and con-
lecture are going the rounds as to
what this rise in British currency sig
nifieS.
Much of this talk is already familiar.
Great Britain, for example, has adjust
ed her budget. She is entering the sea-
son when her balances are normally ia
vorable to her exchange. Foreign trade
is beginning to look her way. She has
escaped the serious imitation which
many feared would follow abandonment
of the gold basis last September. She
has virtually repaid the huge credits
obtained in France and the United
States for the support of the pound.
But some bankers point out that the
sSgation requires a broader interpre-
tatson. Great Britain, it is suggested
in these circles, may well be reassert-
ing-even though unintentionally-her
position of world financial leadership
from which the pessimists promptly de-
posed her late in September, 1881, with
the lapse from gold.

RECEIVERS FOR HERMAN
INTERESTS ARE NAMED
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, March 29.-Receivers
were appointed yesterday for the James
L. Herman interests, which include the
Maryland and Auditorium Theaters and
Kernans Hotel, by Judge Stein in the
Circuit Court.
The receivership will not affect the
operation of the theaters or the hotel,
it was announced.
Two receivers were appointed. They
are Fred C. Schanberger, sr.. present
manager of the theaters, and Walter C.
Tinkard, attorney and real estate op-
orator.
The Herman interests have been i'm
portant factors in the amusement world
in Baltimore during all of the present
century, and during most of it they
have been the dominant interests. For
number of years Herman operated a
theater in Washington.

Stock Exchange Seat Prices.

NEW YORK, March 90 (P)-A year
or so ago, when stock exchange seats
were worth a good deal more than they
are now, Wall Street heard stories that
some canny prospective buyers were
placing bids at 100000. Whether any
of these bids remained in the market
to be executed yesterday is, of course,
unknown, but the Street is inclined to
believe that those who were willing
to pay 100000 for seat in 1881 may
have scaled down their bids somewhat
because of the markets failure to at
tract broader public interest.

next two three years. they will be unfit for Some
engineers estimate that before 1947 within Is

Even allowing for exaggeration of the situation
the prospect is rather dscouragng It appears that most
OF highways will be ruined before they paid for

There is no doubt that their rapid deterioration is
due largely to the damage caused by unreasonaby heavy
