New York, April 10.-UP)- One hundred thousand college stu dents. a vociferous 10 per cent Of American enrolment, will strike, parade. hold mass meetings and otherwise voice their disapproval of war, for one demonstrative hour day after tomorrow, United Press survey showed today. ,
 The strike, widely advertised by flaming posters calling upon youth to make "solemn protest against the black pail of war that today encircles the world" will have the sanction of several college presi- dents, and in many cases will be turned into dignified chapel service at which resolutions will denounce the makers of war.
 Leaders in Movement
 No single organization has con- trol over the days demonstrations, and there is no central "authority" for the strikes. Among other or ganizations, however, which have lent sponsorship for individual pro- grams are the Student League for Industrial Democracy, the National Students league, the Methodist Youth Group, the League Against War and Fascism, and similar or- ganizatior1s.
 In more militaristic ,centers. the pacifists will be answered by pro- Americans" some groups led by football heroes, urging patriotism, protection and preparedness as g means to end aggression. @
 Many university heads, pre- ferring to let youth blow off steam, not only sanctioned the demonstra- tions but have encouraged them. Charges that such strikes are the work of Communists and pinks have been met by student declara- tions that war is destructive force to all humanity, and, if youth can find way out of it, so much the better.
 South Middle West
 Approximately 30,000 of tho demonstrating students are Tn southern and middle western col leges and universities. The East, including New York which is re- garded as the center of the more radical student groups, will furnish a greatre part of the remaining 100000. The farther West the

.JAPS FAIL
TO ALTER
DEMAND
Nippon FriendIess At
Session; Nations
In Deadlock
By DAVID p. SENTNER

LONDON, Dec. IA GN.SO.-1n
an effort to break the naval con.
ference deadlock resulting from
Japan'S call for a common up,
per limit" and the remaining
powers unanimous opposition, a
series of two-nation parleys
opened today and it was decided
to limit Mondays meeting to an
intimate confab among the heads
Of the five delegations.
Demonstrating how crucial the
representatives consider the situa-
ton after only the first week of
the conference, Mondays session
will be secret and no minutes
will be kept, to give the five big
guns a chance to blast away at
the problem without diplomats
restrictions.
Japan UnmOved
The first bi-lateral talk, between
ViScount Monsell, British first
lord of the admiralty and vice
chairman of the conference, and
Admiral OSami Nagano, head OF
the japanese delegation, failed to
move Japan from her position OF
isolation.
The next step, some observers
predicted, would be revelation OF
the British plan" Americas plan
was simply proportionate reduc-
tion of tonnageS by as much as
20 per cent. Japan's goal is all
around equality including-Japan
agreed in a futile tactical move
France and Italy.
Britain is expected once more to
bring forth her scheme Of hidden
ratios" by which Japan would be
given equality in principle but not
in fact.
Japan is definitely friendless at
the conference, her attempt to win
French and italian support by in
cluding them among the five
countries that would have the
common upper limit" after she
had excluded them the day before,
failed utterly.
No Changes Seen
Japan also ruled out Soviet Rus
sia and Germany, holding with the
French that armies and air forces
must be taken into consideration.
Japan'S maneuvers only solidi-
fled opposition to the parity pro-
poSal. Britain was taken back
by the suggestion that Italy
should be given a navy as large
as that of the United Kingdom.
The British dominionS, speaking
through Viscount MonSell, put
Japan into another dilemma
when they asked them if each
dominion would also receive
naval parity.

ANT|-SEMITIC
RIOTS SPREAD

BERLIN, Dec. IA G.N.S).
Anti-Semitic rioting was general
in central Europe today, accord
ing to advices reaching Berlin.
The Balkans in particular were
scenes of disturbances, with vio-
lent demonstrations reported in
Rumania, Hungary and Yugo-
SlaVia.
WAR S w, Dec. IA Q.N.S0 .
Climaxing series of anti-Semitic
riots in Poland and possibly indi-
eating future segregation of Po-
lands Jewish students, the rector
of Lwow University today ordered
that Jewish students occupy Spe-
cial restricted areas in class
rooms. E
In an effort to halt anti-Jewish
disorders the rector, despite pro
tests, assigned each Jewish stu
dent to a special numbered seat.
All Jews were placed on one side
of the class rooms.
Five hundred Jews staged a
demonstration against G e m a n
shops in Warsaw, and police were
called out to disperse them.
Meanwhile discrimination and
attacks against Jews continued
throughout the Polish provinces.

To Close IIlciSiOn

CHICAGO, Dec. IA UN.SO.
Use of an ordinary Upper to per
NIT the opening and closing of
an incision for day-by-day surgical
treatment of a cancer in the
stomach today was revealed by
DR.. Morris Fishbein, editor of the
journal Of the American Medical
Association.
DR.. Fishbein said the revolution
ary experiment. is being made by
a Chicago surgeon, but refused to
disclose the name of the doctor or
patient on whom it has been used.
while the type of treatment
is not exactly new" DR.. Fishbein
said, "the method of keeping the
incision open is somewhat of a
departure in surgical procedure.
THE surgeon first opened the
abdominal wall and then opened
