between the belligerents during an
armistice and rehabilitation and de-
militarization in the jungle battle area.

| for the warfare, the issue is to be
submitted TO arbitration by The Hague

| the Ingavi sector, where her COM

and 100 captured.
| Bolivia asserted the Paraguayans

| counter ATTACK.

The Paraguayan army. after a &C.
ries OF successes, has virtually driven
the Bolivian forces from the Gran
Chaco area, long q point Of contro-
versy between the two nations, into
Bolivia proper.
The mortality rate in the bitter con-
| test for the inhospitable jungle area
has been termed by some military
observers the highest in the history
OF warfare.
The number slain has been esti-
mated at 100000, despite that no more
than that number has ever been en-
gagged in the two armies at one time.

FIGHT FOR LIBERTY
IS HyDE'S ADVICE
Appeals to Grass Roots
Delegates in EuIogizing
Abraham Lincoln
~ a sta II Correspondent Of The Star.

BY Stan Correspondent OF Ihe Star.
SPRINGFIELD. ILL.,, June l0-At
the home Of Abraham Lincoln yester-
day, Arthur M. Hyde. former Governor
of Missouri, called upon the delegates
to the Republican Grass Roots Con-
vention In session here to fight for
retention OF individual liberty, threat
ened he said, by the Roosevelt New
Deal.
mo life In history more ennobles
the comman man than the life Of
Abraham Lincoln" said Hyde. The
surroundings of his birth were a.
miserable "a the manager"
Lincolns rise from humble origin
to greatness and to service OF the
Nation. he said, was made possible
by the freedom guaranteed by the
Bill Of Rights and the Constitution.
rs Liberty Safe"
What of the young man who scans
the future t0day?" said Hyde. Is
his liberty safe? Ia the door OF equal
opportunity held open to himp" He
quoted the young American as saying:
"Opportunism. expediency. political
temporizng-these are the policies of
the day. The appetites of the mob
replaces national morality in national
policy. Men do not heed the voice OF
conscience, the sons OF the pioneer
look not to the rock from which they
were hewn; Government does not
point the road to recovery through the
release of individual enterprise under
liberty to rebuild the Nation. Instead.
1t posts its myriad OF spies and in
spectors to watch the business and
pry into the affairs Of Its citizens.
Terrified, BewiIdered."
II am an American but I am ter
rified, bewildered. In all the welter
of distress, amid all the chaos Of
alien philosophers, and the wreckage
of American institutions, my feet have
lost the way. I can only hope that
the Just God who has never hereto
fore deserted us, may somehow save
us. 1 am weak. What can ] do?'
Mr.. Hyde continued that It was At
ting in another great crisis in the
life of America, for Republicans to
gather at the last resting place OF
Lincoln to take common counsel. He
| said:
"Other nations may take such
action as Ats the character. We dc
not envy and we shall DOT ape them
They may abandon liberty and fly
to dictatorship. We do not join Mr.
Roosevelt in his admiration Of the
powers of Mussolini, Hitler or Stain
We would flrst of all preserve liberty
Let our single-minded rule Of action
be this paraphrase of Lincoln letter
to Greeley: What 1 do / do
because ! believe 1t helps to save
liberty; what forbear. I forbear be-
cause do not believe 1t would help
save liberty. I shall do less whenever
l shall believe that what am doing
hurts the cause, and shall do more
whenever I shall believe doing more
will help the cause"

mandS Is Seen.

TOXIC, June l0.-ChineSe troops
were reported in japanese news dis
patches today to have started their
evacuation of North China, signalizing
what the messages described as
China's complete surrender to de-
rnands of japanese military authori-
ties.
These reports said the threat OF an
occupation by Gen Jiro Minamrs
war machine was sufficient to per-
suade the Chinese Nationalist govern
ment to capitulate to the Japanese
requirements for establishment OF a
new regime in North China.
AS a consequence. the Japanese
press said, the japanese troops con-
centrated in Hopei Province, although
ready for action. will not be called
on to move southwark, at least, Tor
the present.
Precedent Established.
The reports indicated that a prece-
dent has been established conceding
the japanese army the right to dc
tate who shall administer and what
troops shall be stationed In Hopel
Province.
This area formed the heart of the
old Chinese empire and contains the
ancient capital. Peiping, as well as
the commercial metropolis of the
North, TientsinD
Dispatches from TientSin to the
Rengo Japanese news agency said
the evacuation of Chinese troops from
Hopei already was under way in pur-
suance of the Japanese military de-
mandS.
The army commanded by Gen. Yu
Hsueh-Chung, former governor of the
province, whose dismissal the jap
anese ordered, was said to have started
its long march to far-away Kansu
Province.
The I'd and 18th Divisions, troops
of the Chinese Nationalist govern
ment, which the Japanese ordered
withdrawn from Hopei, also were re-
ported to be packing their equipment
for removal to the south.
AS successor to the departing forces
the 32d Army, commanded by Gen
Shang Chen, began trooping into
T1entSm 10 take up ltS duties as the
new North China garrison.
Shang Considered Independent.
Gen. Shang Chen, former governor
of Hopei and former governor Of
Shensi Province, is regarded as in
dependent of the Marking govern.

therefore far more acceptable to the
japanese than his predecessor.
One of the generals first officia
acts was to visit Umezu and promise
his full cooperation to the Japanese
Army.
These latest developments we're re-
ported to the Japanese foreign officer
by Lieut.. Gen. Hashimoto, vice min
lister of war, who conferred today
with Mamoru Shigemitsu, vice min
