Canton Troops Ordered
To QueIl Rebel Reds

SHANGHAI, Jan. 10 QN.S0.
Chinese government officials took
drastic action today to counteract
concentration Of Japanese ana
Manchukuo troops in north China
and Manchuria for q drive on
Jehol province.
Determined to defend the
threatened province at all costs,
Minister Of War Ho Ying. Ching
agreed to permit Cheng Chi-tang,
military commander in Canton
province, to send Canton troops
against rebel Communists at
Kiangsi, thus freeing regular
troops Of the Nanking govern
ment to proceed to north China
If necessary.
Meanwhile, a grave situation
was foreShadowed regarding re"
r1ewal Of the Sino-japaneFs COM
mercial treaty, which expires
May 16.
Numerous Chinese organi1a-
tions are bringing strong pressure
to bear on the government, urg-
ing that the treaty must not be
renewed, owing to the Sino-Jap-
anese Manchurian conflict. as well
as the anticipated clash over
Jetol.
Pointing to recent alleged execu-
tionS Of merchants selling jap
anese goods in Canton, Japanese
authorities are repeating charges
that the Chinese are already
guilty of direct violations Of the
treaty.
The Washington times., 1933-01-19

PE1PING, Jan. 10 U.NS0.
With mobilization Of japanese and
Manchukuo forces complete, the
order for renewal Of Japan's drive
against Jehol province was tensely
awaited today.
Reports from Chinese scouts in
dicated the Japanese advance
might start almost momentarily,
and Chinese commanders through
out North China prepared to re-
sist the expected invasion bitter
ly. ~
Snow Aids Chinese
Snow covering North China and
Jehol province appeared to give
the grey-clad Chinese troops q
decided advantage over the
khaki-clad Japanese troops.
Stationed atop numerous
passes throughout the disputed
province, the Chinese troops were
scarcely visible because Of the
snow, while the Japanese could
be discerned easily.
Triple Advance Due
Mobilization of japanese and
Manchukuo troops. according to
Chinese reports, is centered at
Shanhaikwan, recently seized
from Chinese forces; Mukden,
Manchuria; and in the railway
zone between Chinchow and the
Great Wall Of China.
Intelligence adviceS confirm
predictions that the main Japa-
nese-Manchukuo advance will be
launched simultaneously via three
points-Kailu, Fushun, and Sui
chlln9Sien.

CL0TURE LOSES

Continued from Page -
this debate as has been taken by
those opposed to branch bank
ing. In view Of that circum-
stance, It Is very strange indeed
that this Senate il asked to i'm
pose clOture."
Warning to Republicans
He warned the Republican party
that it would be the minority in
the next Congress and that If
cloture were established as a
precedent, they will find them
selves in q position where they
will be unable property to debate
questions that come before the
Senate in the future"
The vote on cloture was in
sisted upon by Senator Couzens
who announced he would object
to all agreements ending the fill
buster. He was angered at what
he called the "lame-duck Repub-
lican leadership"
He obviously referred to Sen
ator Watson. Republican Floor
Leader, and Senator Moses CR9
Of New Hampshire, beaten for re-
election, who had privately ad-
vised Long.
Long was willing to compromise,
even to the extent Of limiting
debate. He was assured the orig
inal branch banking provision
would be modified to meet his
objections. .s.>- q
The necessary amendment, Of
fered by Senator Bratton CD
Of New Mexico, would limit
branch banking by national banks
only to such States as affirma-
lively permitted their own State
banks to engage in it.
Limit Put On Branches
National banks with capital in
excess Of $5OO.O00 could engage in
Statewide branch-banking but ma
tional banks with less capital
would be limited to branches in
the corporate limits Of the com.
munity in which they are located.
This amendment will be added
to the Vandenberg amendment,
prohibiting national banks from
opening a branch in any COM
munity already served by another
national bank. Long is satisfied
with this compromise.

The man who used to be a
banker and twice ran for mayor Of
Montreal.
The man who for 13 years was
in Canada's who's Who" and
who says his ancestors came over

This man was located today
busily at work on his invention Of
q paper umbrella to sell for 10
cents.
Ought To Make Fortune

bureau for q clean shirt, said:

tune. We thought of using tin
foil at first, but it didn't work.
The alienation suit? Oh, yes"
And then the 6apper French
Canadian, who charges that Still
man stole his wife's love, told his
side Of the story, interspersed
with remarks about the future Of
paper umbrellas and the import
ance Of tracing ones ancestry
back to the Eighteenth century.
Luc Rocheforte, slickly groomed,
concealing well his A years, was
found by reporter in one
room-and-bath apartment in Sun
nyside, Queens, L. I. He appeared
unworried about the furore
aroused by his suit; in fact, the
one thing that clouded his day
was the prospect that he wouldn't
find that clean shirt. He said:
'Times are hard, you know"

he said: -

since she went to Havana with

We had q son, but he died in

He swung to the question Of the
affidavit made by Astrid Haug,
his wife's friend. who introduced
Stillman to. Mrs. RochefoSt. He
said: s .-. ..,a o..
"There's no truth to what she
says about me in that affidavit.
Why, I only met her two or
three times. I met her while
my wife and / were separated.
Then a year later she asked us
to take over her apartment.
She was going to Norway.
"My wife's mother and I did
sublet the apartment and Miss

TRADE IS TOPIC.
OF ROOSEVELT
AND HOOVER
Economic Conference Chief
Item to Come Up at
Farley Tomorrow
Rv OEnRGE r. HOLMEs

The whole field Of foreign af-
fairs will be explored by President
Hoover and PreSidentelect Roose-
velt in their conference tomorrow,
the common objective being q
continuity Of American policy to
bridge the change Of Administra-
tionS.
The paramount topic they will
discuss, however, is the forthcom-
ing world economic conference
and American policy in relation
thereto. E
Agree On Far East
They are already in agreement
concerning American policy in the
critical Far Eastern situation.
Governor Roosevelt approves the
Hoover-Stimson policy Of not rec
ognizing the puppet government
set UP in Manchuria by Japanese
conquest and invasion, and the
principle that the "open door
must be maintained in the Orient.
They are in. distinct disagree
ment upon an approach to the
war debts situation. President
Hoover has been insistent upon
recreation of the war debt fund
ing commission, to provide the
debtor countries with an agency
through which they can make
their pleas for revision Of existing
agreements.
Governor Roosevelt has def
nitely rejected this proposal, sug-
costing instead that the ind1vid-
ual debtors can make their ap-
proach through regular diplo-
matte channels. If both maintain
their positions it would seem to
preclude war debts from the
much.heralded conference. y
There remain, then, the major
problem Of the world economic
conference and disarmament as
the principal topics which can
profitably be discussed.
Mr.. Hoover will be aided in the
conference by Secretary Of State
Stimson, who is credited with
arranging the second meeting be-
tween the two, and by Secretary
of the Treasury Mills.
Governor Roosevelt probably
win be seconded by Prof. Ray
mond Moley, who was with him
in his previous visit to the White
House, and Norman H. Davis, who
has been q diplomatic scout" for
the Administration, with a rowing
commission in Europe for the
past year.
To Meet Party Chiefs.
Prior to his conference with
Mr.: Hoover. Governor Roosevelt
will confer with Democratic lead
ers in Congress. A series Of con-
fereI1ces have been arranged for
him, from the time Of his arrival
late this afternoon until far into
the night.
These conferences will have to
do with the critical Democratic
situation that prevails on Capitol
Hill, where a definite and EN-.
barraSsing. party split has tied
Congress into knots.

Japanese authorities today as
signed heavy detachments Of

branch was wrecked by strikers.
Scores Of police were assigned

any further acts Of sabotage,
while the homes and hotel rooms
of five American and four British
employees of the firm were guarded.
The strike leading to the attack
upon the Yokohama plant has
now extended to six cities. Radi-
cal leaders responsible for the
walkout declare that 5000 work
ers have now joined the strike.
