Sino-Japanese Differences
Over Zone Grow and Brinu
Serious Charges.

BY the Associated Press.
TIENTSIN, China. June 24-Sino-
japanese troubles over the control and
administration Of the newly established
North China neutral zone, set up by
the Tangku agreement of May 81, have
become increasingly entangled.
The Japanese military authorities now
are demanding that the Chinese ex-
plain why they have not established a
zone of administration, in accordance
with terms of the truce, and why the
Tientsin- -Shanhaikwan railway service
has not been resumed.
"Brazen Effrontery."
Chinese politicians and military lead
ers characterized the japanese demands
as "brazen effrontery and they charged
that the Japanese are responsible for
preventing establishment of a competent
administration in the neutral area and
for blocking resumption of the railway
traffic.
The Chinese alleged today that the
Japanese are pouring Manchukuo
troops into the neutralized territory
and that they have melted Chinese ir-
regulars within the zone to oppose the
representatives of Markings authority.
These irregular troops under the
leadership of group of military OFF,
GERS who do not bow to Markings au-
thority have declared independence of
the area along the Lwan River, saying
that this part of China is henceforth
not subject to the authority of the
Hopei CPeiping) provincial government.
"Instigated by Japan"
Representatives of Marking in North
China branded this independence move
ment as ''instigated by Japan, and
meaning nothing except to reveal the
bad faith Of the Japanese IN regard to
the Tangku truce"
Chinese spokesmen assert that the ir-
regulars within the zone are either
Chinese forces, or they belong to Japan.
In the first instance it is for Japan to
drive them out in the same manner as
the japanese expelled Chinese troops
In the latter event, the japanese should
withdraw them to the Great Wall"
Claim Japanese Control.
The Japanese further demanded that
portion of the irregular troops in the
vicinity of the Ivan River should guard
the railroad line through the neutral
zone. The Japanese maintained that
these forces belong to the Chinese army
and are suitable for railway duty.
The Chinese military chiefs declare
these irregular units are under Japa-
nese control
If they guard the railway line, Japan
thereby gains control of the railroad
l. Il
which China cannot accept" the Chi
nese protested.

MISS PERKINS WILL
| DISCUSS RECOVERY
Labor Secretary to Speak
Tuesday in National
Radio Forum.

On the eve of the Federal Govern
ment starting its machinery to going
July /, to battle through vast leg1s-
lative powers for restoration of this
country's economic position. Secretary
of Labor Frances Perkins will discuss
in the National Radio Forum Tuesday
night, June 81, just how the admins
tration expects to boost buying power
and stabilize prices through the Indus
trial Control Board.
This forum is arranged by The Wash
ington Star and Miss Perkins speech
will be broadcast over the coast-to-
coast network of the National Broad
casting Co.
Problems Of Labor.
Miss Perkins has selected for her
subject The Problems of Labor and
Industries She will explain the
functions vested in Brig Gen Hugh S.
johnson, industrial control admins
traitor, through the national recovery
act, and the part labor and industries
are expected to take in this vast meas
ure.
One of the vital factors of the pow
ers given Gen. Johnson is to elevate the
long depressed purchasing power of the
dollar to above the curve on the Ma
tons price chart. The administration
expects this to be accomplished by IN
dustrial trade agreements stipulating
wage increases and shorter working
hours for labor, which will stimulate
purchasing power not only by pay roll
boosts, but placing more workers on
jobs.
Miss Perkins is the first woman to
hold q cabinet portfolio in this country
and Is an international authority on
labor and industrial questions. She
was named by President Roosevelt as
a member Of the advisory board to aid
Gen. johnson in administering indus
trial control.
Won International Fame.
Shortly after taking Office In March
Miss Perkins planted the seed from
which the national recovery act grew.
She was the author of the rider to the
Black five-day bill which sought to es-
tablish boards to regulate the problems
of industries and labor. Her plan was
superseded by the administrations re-
covery measure. She also took prom
inent part in the drafting of this act.
Prior to entering President Roose-
velt's cabinet she was for years COM
missioner of labor of New York State
The manner in which she administered
this Office in the largest industrial
State in the Union gained for her in
ternational fame.

VETERANS OWN FUNDS
FINANCED FORT HUNT
BONUS CONVENTION

the pockets of veterans, should be de-
posted in the Federal Treasury.
1t stipulated. however, that no with
draWals should be made from the fund
except in time of war. when 1t could
be expended by the Secretary of War
for the recreation, amusement, COM
fort, contentment and health of the
enlisted personnel of the military es-
tablishment."
Congress Took Action. .
Several weeks later, however. Con-
gress decided to take these trust funds
of the veterans of the World War
period to bear the cost Of the bonus
convention.
The way for this was paved in the
independent Offices appropriation act
of June l6 1t took the funds entirely
out Of the hands of the Secretary OF
War and turned them over to the Vet
erans' Administrator and made avail
able for Reimbursement to the Vet
erans' Bureau for all expenses (includ-
ing transportation to bona-fide resi-
dence) incurred in connection with
INDECENT veterans in attendance at the
ization of World War veterans -
The decision OF the Administrator
Of Veterans Affairs in connection with
such expenditures shall be final and
conclusive" the new law declares.
Inquiry at the Veterans Bureau yes
terday threw little light on the situa-
ton beyond the existence Of such a
fund. Whether the full $788068 was
used in defraying expenses of the bonus
convention, or whether only a portion
was used could not be learned. The
report on expenditures has not been
completed
Under Army spervision, the fund had
been carefully conserved and used only
for special purposes, where the needs
demanded it. The Army had nothing
to do with the recent bonus conven-
ton. except to furnish tents and equip
ment at the request OF the Veterans
Bureau. Discovery Of how the expense
money was obtained came as bit OF
disconcerting news to the War Depart
ment.
