By HERBERT r. EKINS
United Press Staff Correspondent

PEIPING, May 12.-The Japan
ese war machine moved relentlessly
toward Peiping today while a single
Nipponese military plane-the sec
ond III two days-swooped over the
city dropping leaflets warning The
populace that the fall of the city
was imminent unless all resistance
ceased
Directors of all base hospitals in
Peiping were ordered today to pre-
pare for evacuation southwark.
All wounded in the hospitals
were being classified for transpor-
tation. Meanwhile, the arrival of
new wounded soldiers from the
battlefront overtaXed hospital ia
cilities.
The Japanese military plane ap-
peared at dawn. Immediately the
roar of machine guns and anri-air-
craft guns mounted on the walls of
the city reverberated through the
streets. Thousands of natives,
panic stricken, raced out Of their
homes and piled into dugouts con-
structed days ago in anticipation of
aerial bombardment.
Nelson t. John, United States
minister, and other members of the
diplomatic staff, awakened by the
gunfire, appeared on roofs of lega-
tions in the foreign quarter.
The Japanese army was only so
miles north of Peiping, held back
by determined Chinese army sub
jected to whitening artillery and
aerial attacks.

torney Of Kuhn.
Austin advised the attorney gen.
eral that Kuhn has 10 families who
received relief during the last two
winters and later worked for the city
In payment Of the relief funds.
The county claims 1t should be
paid the Is per cent Of the relief
moneys which It furnished, and the
needy workers claim they should be
paid for their work and that the re-
lief they were furnished was a closed
incident for which they need render
no services, Austin said.
Higgins said ut Is clear that the
city owes no compensation to the
men, regardless Of how essential to
the operation Of the city was the la
Dor performed by them, provided that
1t was clearly understood that the
work done by the laborers was in
payment for relief given or to be
given"

An explanation Of weight restric-
tons on pigs sold to the government
was received Friday by H. o. Put.
nam, county agricultural agent, from
Q. r. Monroe. state director Of extern
sion.
Pointing to an apparent confusion,
Monroe said some have secured the
impression that the average weight
Of lot should not be over 100 pounds
nor below IS pounds. That is, pigs
to be bought on government account
canot be below Is pounds or over 100
pounds. The former will not be taken
at any price and those over 100 pounds
will be taken at the regular market
price on the day Of delivery"
Monroe also called attention to the
fact that the range Of weights must
not be greater than 30 pounds. "For
example" he said, "a lot Of pigs might
run in weights from IS to IS pounds.

ding San Francisco club, 6 to l.
Salvo yielded nine hits. The de-
feat dropped the Seals to tie with

ed.

PHILADELPHIA, April 28-The

TO handle pomme de terre without
gloves was quite gauche. A man
never was quite sure whether to

Co step up briskly and say Get it
up!"?
You see what we mean. Every
thing was topsy turvy. So it is
with baseball today. Something
