JAPAN BARS NON-MEMBERs.
Cancellation Steps Taken As Toxic
Troops Bomb Chinese in Jehol.


TOXIC, January II (P).-Foreigr
Minister Uchida, with approval of the
cabinet, instructed the japanese dele
cation at Geneva today TO insist that
the Drummond formula be changed to
omit invitations to non-members Of
the League of Nations to Cancellation
commission to deal with the Manchu-
rian issue.
The Japanese newspapers featured
cable dispatches attributing a renewed
anti-Japanese atmosphere at Geneva tc
the activities of the American embas-
sizes in London and Paris.
Japanese officials expressed the view
that news from Geneva indicated con-
ciliation efforts we're futile and that the
assembly shortly would proceed tc
frame a report in accordance with
paragraph 4, article IS, of the League
Covenant, the nature of which would
determine whether Japan would quit
the League.
This part Of the Covenant provides
that, when conciliation reports fail in q
controversial matter between nations. a
report be drafted on such a conflict
with a recommendation for League
action
The formula attributed to Sir Eric
Drummond, League secretary general
would provide that the Committee OF
Nineteen issue g general invitation tc
non-members of the League to partici-
pate in conciliation. This was to sub
stitute for previously drafted proposal
to extend the invitations particularly
to the United States and Russia. Japan
also opposed the previous proposal.
Chinese Troops Bombed.
Japanese airplanes bombed Chinese
|. troops in the Kailu district in North
east Jehol Province Monday for the
second successive day, it was learned
here today.
japanese reports from Tungliao, the
Japanese barracks near the Jehol-
Manchurian border, told of the all
attack
Japanese military leaders expressed
the view that the air bombings plu;
internal discords' were breaking uI
the Chinese volunteer concentration al
that point. This, they believed, was
| preventing contemplated attack or
Tungliao by the Chinese.
After the first Japanese air raid SUM-
| Gay, the japanese residents of Tungliao
an important railway center, were or
dered to seek safety within the Japa-
nese barracks, because a Chinese coun-
ter attack was anticipated.
The largest Chinese army in Jehol
province to defend that northern gate
way to the ancient capital of Peiping
and the Mongolia interior against a
projected japanese invasion has been
concentrating in the Kailu district sew

best friend on the League Council
stated fatty that unless Japan produced
by tomorrow satisfactory proposals for
a settlement, the League would have to
drop conciliation and pass on to judg-
ment.
He was Immediately supported in this
stand by the French representative,
Rene Massigli. Every one was taken
aback, and the little powers, which all
along had been wanting the League to
act, were pleased.
Thus says the newspaper Paris-Midi
today: 1T is perceived that the United
States, though not member of the
League OF Nations. is able to force a
decision on the states, great and small,
at Geneva"
Present Situation.
The technical situation now appears
to be as follows:
Japan will make no satisfactory pro-
posals at tomorrow's meeting. China
Will protest. A move will be made to
recommend and judge without further
hearing of the two parties.
The committee will adjourn to con-
Slder. Sir John Simon will leave imme-
diately for London to lay the situation
before meeting of the British cabinet.
The discussion will be resumed, prob
ably without Japan or China, few
days hence There may even be a new
Special Assembly next week.
The League sophistry. that the events
in Manchuria and China are not in
the nature Of war or an aggression,
but are merely dispute, will be main
tained, but the members now at last
will be obliged to MAKE up their minds
as to whats they think regarding the
right or wrong in this dispute.
This will not be easy. Both the Brit
ish and French cabinets are understood
to be divided on the subject.
Meanwhile, it has apparently been
demonstrated that even in the present
exceptional interim and circumstances
the United States can continue to have
foreign policy and defend its inter
ests effectively. provided President Hoo
yer End President-elect Roosevelt agree.
Much interest has been aroused abroad
by the report that President-el Roose-
welt is seeing Norman H. Davis, who has
served abroad as personal envoy of
the administration, on Thursday in
connection with the Disarmament Con-
ference, the bureau of which reconveneS
in Geneva on Monday.

VATICAN CITY, January 17.-The
holy shroud in which the body OF
Christ is said to have been wrapped
after the crucifixion probably will be
exposed to public view in connection
with the Holy year celebration, it was
said in semi-official circles yesterday.
The shroud, which has been the prop
erty of the Italian ruling house in the
last five centuries, is kept in marble
jewel-studded case in cathedral in
Turin.
King Victor Emanuel is understood
to have given his consent to plans for
showing the shroud publicly. Msgr.
Maurilio Fossati, archbishop Of Turin,
came to Vatican City to confer with
Pope Plus, whose consent to the pro-
poSal is considered likely.
The shroud was last exposed in 1881
after being kept from the public view
for 80 years.

Senator Sheppard said in effect that
in this age of machinery, alcohol will
not mix. In addition, he declared that
the problem today is to feed the peo-

MRS. GARNER PLANS
PLAIN GOWN AT BALL
Costume to Be Worn Twice Will
Thus Be Given Double His

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
"Just as plain and simple as I am"
was the description Mrs John NJ Gar
ner gave today of the evening gown she
will wear both to the White House next
Tuesday night and to the inaugural ball
March fourth.
The dress will have a double his
torical significance in that it will grace
her final important official appearance
in her role of Speakers wife, President
Hoover'S dinner to the Speaker; and
also her first social wnirl in her new
role of wife of the Vice President.
Mrs. Garner, in the third of her null
tiple character parts in the drama of
public affairs, secretary to her hus-
band. was packing for the move from
the House to the Senate side of the
Capitol as she described her dress.
"It's black-satin, I think-anyhow
We'll call it satin" she said, sinking
into chair for little breathing spell.
"It has a soft, lacy light collar that
starts in the back about here (she in
dicated a point above the shoulder
blades) and that comes forward on
both sides to form cowl-effect at the
neck, going on down the front to a
little v below the waistline.
THE trimming isn't dead white, but
light, and it is embroidered with Sc
quins that give it yellowish-g gold cast"
Mrs. Garner said she hadn't yet Sc
lected the gown she would wear on
Inauguration day for the ceremonies at
the Capitol, but that it would certainly
be some variation of her favorite "black
with touches of white"

'MAPES TO SPONSOR
TAX BILLS ONCE MORE
Michigan Republican Says He Will
Offer Five D. G. Measures
Next Session.

Representative Mapes, Republican, of
Michigan, who served as chairman of a
special House committee which several
years ago investigated fiscal relations
between the Federal and District Gov
ernments. announced today he would
sponsor in the next Congress the five
bills which the House passed at the last
session to increase the tax burden in the
District.
These bills, which are now pending
in the Senate, would remove the 6O-4O
ratio of fiscal relations from substantive
law, provide an income tax as a sub
Stitute for the present tax on intan-
gibles, increase the gasoline tax from 2
to cents a gallon, provide for an in
heritance tax, and place weight tax on
motor vehicles
Mr.. Mapes indicated he expects all
five Of these bills to die from inaction
in the Senate at this session, but de-
clared he hoped to get all of them
enacted into law in the new Congress.
There may be some modification in
the new bills, Mr.. Mapes said, because
he plans, before framing the new meas
ures, to make a study of the exhaustive
reports prepared for the Senate District
Committee on each Of these bills by the
Federal Bureau of Efficiency.

displacing the camel as the burden
bearer of the desert, and the result
is that thousands of these beasts are
running wild, having been turned loose
by their one-time owners who have not
further use for them. The animals
have thrived and multiplied until the
country of Syria is overrun with them
and the natives regard them as pest.
