NANKING. December 2s-General-
issimo Chang Kai-shek postponed de-
parture for his elder brothers funeral
today until pressing problems arising
from Marshal Chang Hsueh. .liang's
rebellion have been settled.
The premier was not expected to de-
part for his birthplace of Fenghua,
Chekiang Province. until Wednesday,
after certain important decisions fac
ing the government have been made"
1t was believed the rebel marshal's
fate would be settled before the gen
eralissimo leaves to attend the services
for Chang Hsi-hou, who died at
Fenghua suddenly at the age Of So.
May Be Sent Abroad.
The belief was growing that Chang,
who was detained at the residence OF
Chiang's brother-in-law, DR.. T. v.
Soong. would be sent abroad for an In
definite period.
The army Of Northwest China which
he led in revolt to kidnap the premier
was expected to remain intact under
the command of the former Man.
churian leader, Gen. Wang Shu-
chang, vice chairman of the Nanking
Military Advisory Council.
Gen. Wang, as an ardent follower
of the late Elder Marshal" Chang
Tso-lin. father of the rebellious Young
Marshal Chang Hsueh-liang, holds
the respect of the former Manchurian
forces which the young marshal" led
into the Northwest after Japanese ex-
PEELED him from Manchukuo.
Resignation Rejected.
Chang, in view Of the reflection he
felt the Sianfu revolt cast on his au-
thority and position, offered his resie-
nation from "all incumbent and con-
current posts" to the Central Executive
Committee Of the Kuomintang (Na-
tionalist party.
The resignation was promptly re.
jected in the highest vote of confidence
possible under the Chinese govern
mental set-up.
The action was taken TO indicate
Chiang's recommendations for leniencv
toward the penitent and self-surren-
dered Chang and settlement Of the re-
volt would be accepted by the govern
ment.

A private wire connected his country

Hitler Stalls for Time.
At the time of the Palos' reported
release diplomats in Berlin believed
Adolf Hitler was playing for time in
the Spanish crisis, determined to give
insurgent Fascists another chance to
capture Madrid before he promises Eu-
rope to withdraw aid.
The Reichsfuehrer cut short his
Christmas holiday at his beloved VIM
ter home in Berchtesgaden, Bavaria,
to return to the capital.
Ofncially he was said to have re-
turned to attend the funeral of Gen.
Hans Won Seeckt, but it was thought
undoubtedly interviews with Joachim
Won Ribbentrop, Ambassador to Lon
don, and Gen. Wilhelm Faupel, Nazi
Charge d'Affaires to Spain, were on
his schedule.
Diplomats most concerned in the
latest Franco-Br demand for nom
Intervention have concluded they must
wait considerable time for Hitler's
answer.
Der Fuehrer, they believed, would
not make known his decision, at least
until the result of Gen. Francisco
Franko's present insurgent drive on
Madrid is known.
May Consult With II Duce.
Hitler's main play was said to be for
time in which to consult with Premier
Mussolini of Italy before he decides to
halt volunteer aid to Franco or grant
his request for more men.
The foreign Office, meanwhile,
launched campaign to smother
stories circulating that Germany's aim
in Spain was imperialistic.
Diplomatic writers, taking their cue
from the foreign Office, said the Span
ish problem was not one Of prestige,
colonies or economics, but question
of bolshevism.''
Germanys interest in Spain, the for
eign office said through the Deutsche
Korrespondenz, "is and
was merely directed toward seeing that
Spain's independence and possessions
remained preserved in any case and
shape-hence, that Spanish territory
does not become another sallyport for
the Third Internationale.

NEW DEAL Hit
BY LAWYERS

The trend of the New Deal
is Just as uncertain today as it
was two years ago."
So declares a special committee
Of the American Bar Association,
named to study legislation affect
ing the rights Of private citizens.
The committee report was pre-
pared for submission to the annual
convention of the bar association
at its fifty-ninth annual meeting
in Boston, August 24-28.
After reviewing the early activi-
ties of the Roosevelt administra-
ton, including enactment of the
outlawed National Recovery and
Agricultural Adjustment Acts,
the report said:
Laws specifically proposed
as emergency measures with
limited life have been declared
by important members Of the
administration to be the begin
ming of permanent changes in
national policy.
There has been a continuing
conflict between such officials
as to whether a new social and
economic order Is in the making
or the old institutions are being
perfected so that they may be
preserved"
Referring to the Supreme
Courts refusal to accept a new
theory of the extent of Federal
legislative power under the inter
state commerce clause, the report
said:
I'm each form this new theory
Of Federal power has now been
rejected by the highest court"
On the subject of economic
planning, the report said:
mo government which is sub
ject to the impact of political
pressure applied by groups with
conflicting interests can plan;
it can only compromise. If there
be successful economic planning
the planners must be free from
such preSSureS."

COTTON CROP
LOSS DUE

NEW ORLEANS. Aug. 8.-The
American Cotton Cooperative AS
ISOLATION today estimated the 1886
crop at 12,650,000 bales.
The estimate was based on re-
ports as of August l and was
205,0O bales below its previous
estimate based on conditions as of
July Is, at which time the drought
in the Western belt had not be-
come serious.
Nearly 100000 bales have been
removed from the crop prospect in
Oklahoma since the middle of July
because of excessive heat and lack
of moisture.
The condition in Oklahoma On
August l averaged Al, as compared
with 81 on July IS, and now ap-
proacheS the record all-time low of
AZ established in 1884.
In Texas. a marked decline in
crop prospects has occurred since
July Is due to drought in the
northern sections and excessive
rains and weevils in the south.
Prospects in the Eastern belt and
Mississippi Valley partly offset the
decline in the West, the A. C. C. A.
reported.

JULY RECORDS
PEAK OUTPUT

NEW YORK, Aug. 8.-In its
weekly summary of general bust
ness. Standard Statistics Com
pany, of New York, currently
comments as follows:
Greater than expected &C
tivity in several important
trades caused industrial pro-
duCtiOn in July to reach the
best level since the recovery
movement got under way. In
fact, Standard Statistics Com
pany index of industrial activ-
ity for last month Of $40 (cOr-
rected for seasonal variation,
1886 equals 1907 was the high
est since June of 1880.
1.-THE cOntra-SeaSOnal inn
provenent in July was due
almost entirely to expanding
activity in the capital goods in
duStrieS. Indeed, with the ex-
ceptiOn of a moderate slacken-
ing in the first two months Of
this year, the producers goods
trades have been expanding
without interruption since
June, 1888.
Despite the fact that Au-
gust normally is one of the
dullest months of the year
from the standpoint of indus
trial production. present indi-
cations are that output in the
current month will show no
more than moderate cOntrae-
ton, after making allowance
for seasonal factors. from the
abnOrmaIly high July levels.
THE index of industrial pro-
ductiOn for August is prefmi
narily estimated at 1913, the
best figure for any August
since 1929"

CHICAGO, Aug. 8 0N.S0.
Grain prices were generally steady
to firm at the start today. Wheat
prices advanced about a cent a
bushel, rejecting strong cables.
Other grains moved up in SYM
patty, but trade was lighter owing
to uncertainty over the govern
ment crop forecast to be issued
Monday afternoon.
An easier tone developed in
wheat here after a firm start be-
cause of a reaction at Winnipeg
where prices fell after rising about
q cent.
Near midsession, wheat was

j. 5. TO MOVE
5000 TONS
OF GOLD
BY CECIL B. DICKSON

ny CECIL d. DlChSON
Secret plans for movement of
the largest single gold hoard in
the world were completed yester-
day at q closed conference Of
Treasury officials.
Under close guard and in ar
mored cars, 428,572 gold bars
worth 5000 million dollars soon
will start moving from Eastern
seaboard points to the new Treas
ury Storehouse at Fort Knox, KY.
Secrecy Sought
Plans for the secret movement
call for the transfer Of the huge
gold stocks without letting the
public know when the shipments
leave New York and Philadelphia.
Treasury officials hope to COM
plete the transfer and have the
gold housed in the So-called in
penetrable steel, granite and re-
inforced concrete vaults at Fort
Knox before announcing the
movement.
Secret Service agents and other
Treasury law enforcement agents,
postal inspectors, special police
and other armed guards are be-
ing modified for the movement.
The United States Army may be
called upon for reinforcements.
May Take Month
1t may require 80 days to COM
plete the transfer. Each of the
428,572 bricks, worth $4,000
each, weighs approximately 400
ounces or IS pounds.
The total weight is 10,714,300
pounds. It was estimated that
at 10000 pounds per armored ex-
press car, it would require 268
cars.
The gold is being concentrated
at the big military establishment
at Fort Knox, as a precautionary
measure. Fort Knox is west of
the Appalachian Mountains,
where greater protection is az
forded from theoretical invasion
from the Atlantic.
