NEW YORK, March 10.-The city's
determination to provide moderate
priced restaurant in Central Park
and to take some of the swank out
of the Casino established there by
a friend of former Mayor James j.
Walker today had stirred fresh contro-
versy.
Two Property Owners Associations
in the vicinity announced they would
protest to Park Commissioner Robert
Moses against his plan Of converting
the Old Sheepfold into a popular
priced tavern.
Their objections were based on the
belief such a step would attract an
undesirable element from Tenth ave-
nue. and the lower East side" And,
that "the whole purpose Of the park
would be vitiated by turning it into
an amusement center"
The Sheepfold. an antiquated red
brick building nesting in the shadow
Of towering apartment houses on the
West side Of the park. became vacant
recently when the so sheep kept there
for years we're transferred to Brook
lyn.
Among those who have sided with
Commissioner Moses in his plan to
provide food at moderate prices in
the Old Sheepfold is Fannie Hurst,
the novelist, who regards it "as afford
ing the greatest good for the greatest
number"

CHINESE FACTIONS
HOLD PEACE TALKS.
Compromise Between Man.
king and Canton Is Re-
ported Likely.
BY the Associated Press.

=
HONG KONG, China, March 10
Secret negotiations between Independ-
ent Cantonese leaders and Marking
Nationalist statesmen were under
way today for the liquidation OF their
armed neutrality which has persisted
since the 1881 Canton revolt.
Hitherto Gen. Chan Chai-Tong,
generalissimo in the Southern fac
ton, has been kept quiet by financial
and other persuasion by Marking, 1t
was said. but the Nationalists recent
victory over rebels in Fukien Province
and the presence of strong Marking
forces near Kwang Tung permit Gen.
Chang Kia-Shek, Markings strong
man." to exert more pressure.
Gen. Chang wants to abolish the
provincial committee system and re-
store the old plan of having gov
ernor for each province as a move to
unity China.
Canton, the Associated Press learned
on reliable authority, dares not refuse,
but is bargaining to retain the
Southwest political council or some
other committee in an advisory ca
pacity. 1t also wants to nominate an
acceptable" governor, but Nankine
seeks the appointment Of a dependable
pro-Chiang man.
A compromise was reported likely
but hitherto no official statement has
been issued.
Canton has governed more or less
independently and has pretended to
some extent to be national govern
ment. but since the 1881 split Gen
Chan has avoided claiming national
status or unduly usurping the Ma
tionalistS' functions.
In some circles it was said the rea
question is whether Chang Kia-SheA
can obtain the de facto control Of the
Canton administration without war
