CHINA, JAPAN NEAR.
CRISIS OVER RAILS.
Service to Manchukuo De-

PEIPING, China, April 14.-Chinese
officials here feel that a new crisis
with Japan is not far of unless China
agrees to resume rail traffic and postal
service to Mukden, Manchukuo.
Because China does not recognize
the new Manchurian State under the
Japanese-protected Emperor Kang
Teh, service has not been established
from Peiping to Mukden in spite of
demands the japanese are said to
have presented.
Chinese here believe Japan will de-
mand a reply from China at least
before May 81, the first anniversary
OF the signing Of the Tangku pact
which halted Japan's Invasion Of
North China in 1893.
Huang Flu, Nationalist government
commissioner in Peiping,, Is now in
conference with Chang Kai-Shek,
head of the Marking government, re-
garding the North China situation.
The Chinese government is said to
be divided upon the question of re-
suming service, one group favoring
unconditional rejection Of the jap
anese demands, holding that accept
ance would be tantamount to recog-
nizing Manchukuo.
The other Is said to believe that If
the demands are rejected, the jap
anese again will invade North China.

ing Department Here.

a luncneon at the National Press Club
today for approximately 100 high
school students of Maryland, Virginia

public question discussed by well
known leaders and later take part in

with a discussion of the question:
Should the United States adopt the
essential features of the British sys-
tenn of radio control?"
DR.. Tracy F. Tyler of the National
Education Associations Committee on
Radio in Education presented evidence
OF growing dissatisfaction on the part
of the American public with the pres
ent system of broadcasting. He ad-
vocated public ownership and control
of technical facilities and control of
programs by a quasi-public corpora
ton, two features of the British sys-
tenn.
The present system was defended
by DR.. Henry Adams Bellows, vice
president Of the Columbia Broadcast
ing System.
After the discussion, the students
met in section meetings for their own
arguments of the question and their
findings were to be presented today in
formal resolutions.

dents. Aubrey Matheison, Western

BRITISH PLAN AIMS
AT STEEL CONTROL
Federation Five-Year Undertak-
ing Would Recover Lost
World Markets.
By the Associated Press.

LONDON, April 14.-The British
Iron and Steel Federation today made
public flve-year plan through which
it hopes to gain complete control of
the industry throughout the empire.
The impression was gathered that
the scheme has the approval of the
treasury and that the present 33 1-3
per cent duty on imported iron and
steel will remain in force, instead of
expiring next October as originally
planned.
The duty originally was imposed on
condition that the industry reorganize
itself.
The plan seeks to recover for
Britain its lost world markets for
iron and steel and to make the in
dustry independent of tariffs.
