Wauy Will Spend
Winter at Villa
Of ROQerS
BY MICHAEL WILSON

CANNES, France, Dec. 81
Q.N.SO:-MrS. Wallis Simpson
plans to wait several months be-
fore she sees the Duke Of Wind
sor again, her host at the Villa
Lou Wei, Herman L. Rogers, told
International News Service today.
He said:
There is NO possibility at all
Of Mrs. Simpson seeing the
Duke of Windsor before spring.
We are going to pass a quiet,
family Christmas, with nothing
special planned"
Indicating Mrs. Simpson has no
definite plans, which are under
stood to be Subordinated to Ed
wards decisions, Rogers denied
that Mrs. Simpson has any idea
of buying or renting a house on
the Riviera at present. He added:
Busy Writing Letters
"There is no possibility of her
having anything in view at the
moment. She will remain here
for several months"
Rogers said Mrs. Simpson
spends most of her time at the
villa writing letters, reading and
taking occasional afternoon
drives.
Earlier, marking the first and
only time since the abdication
of former King Edward that Mrs.
Simpson has consented to see cor
respondents, she received me and
two other American newspaper
men in the garden Of the Rogers
villa, and for the first time: in
her life she talked freely to re-
porterS.

CHANG HOPES
FOR FREEDOM
IN 4S HOURS
Soong Says Rebellion
Will Be Settled With
His Release

SHANGHAI, Dec. 81 GN.S).
liberation of Generalissimo Chang
Kai-Shek, held for more than a
week by Marshal Chang Hsueh-
Liang in an effort to force China
into war against Japan, is eX-
pected within 48 hours, officials
declared today.
w. w. Donald, Chiang's British
advisor, has returned to Marking
by airplane, and the country has
been flooded with propaganda in
dicating virtually all regions are
united to discourage the hope Of
Marshal Chang and his rebels.
Donald previously was at S1anfu,
where Chang is held, negotiating
for the generalisSimo's release.
Foreigners Safe
Meanwhile a telegram-the first
from a foreign source at Sianful
since outbreak Of the revolt-was
received at Hankow, stating so for
eignerS at Sianfu were safe. Mis-
sionaries isolated in remote regions
of Eastern Kansu were also re-
ported all safe.
Earlier, the Nanking government
ordered resumption of hostilities
against the rebels because Of their
failure to free Chang.
Rebel Town Held
Shortly after the loyaliSt troops
again moved against the Shensi
rebels, the government claimed its
forces had captured Hwahsien, so
miles east of Sianfu, after sharp
engagement.
Meanwhile, T. v. Soong, a mem
ber of the economic council, who
went to Sianfu to negotiate for
Chiang's release, returned to Nan
king and announced:
Settlement of the revolt and
release. Of GeneraliSsimO Chang
are quite possible"
He said he consulted Marshal
Chang and had private interview
with Chang last night.
In addition, according to reports
here, the towns of Weinan, Huayin
and Sanyuan were bombed by air
planes as the drive against the
rebels got underway.
Thousands of college and uni
versity students are taking part in
the propaganda drive against the
rebels. They are seeking sigma
lures for a telegram condemning
Marshal Chang and his aims and
demanding immediate release Of
Chang. ....
japanese Ambassador Shigeru
Kawagoe, acting under instruc-
tions from his government, is ex-
pected to affirm again Japan's at
titude of wait and see" in the
present Chinese crisis. But he will
point out that it would annoy
Japan for the Nanking govern
ment to reach compromise with
the rebels permitting communist
cooperation in a drive against
Japan.

Despite the serious illness of

Plans for the congress remain
unaltered, and no change is fore
seen by Vatican circles, even in
the event of the Pontiff's death,
q semiofficial source declared.
Plans Radio Address
The Pope, in fact, has made it
known to members of the papal
household that he intends to open
the congress, as he had planned,
with brief radio address and
benediction.
Unless his physicians decree
otherwise. a microphone will be
brought to the Pontiff'S bedside
and his words will be broadcast
over the powerful Vatican short
wave radio to New York, whence
they will be relayed to Manila.
Delegates from all parts of the
world are already enroute to the

eruption, showering San Vicente
and it's populace with ashes.
The road to San Salvador was
soon packed with refugees fleeing
to the safety Of the capital, and a
stream of cars and trucks moved
constantly in both directions.
Rescuers expressed fears San
Vicente may be threatened with
an epidemic as result Of the dis
aster, which played havoc with
sanitation arrangements.
The buildings of San Vincente
are largely of adobe construction
and they came tumbling down
when the earth shook under them
and parted in great cracks and
assures.
Thousands Flee
Terrified men, women and chill
dren poured into the narrow
streets only to be buried under
piles of debris in which relief
workers dug tonight with the fury
of desperation. A crowd gathered
for a religious festival wa S
trapped.
Thousands who escaped imme-
diate death fled the city with what
household belongings they had
time to assemble but their fate
also was precarious as the earth
continued to rock and split be-
meath their fugitive feet.
There were no facilities to care
for the hundreds Of injured and
the night became a murky scene
of horror with the cries Of the dy'
ing.
Heart-Breaking Scenes
Struggling through this devas-
tated city, climbing over broken
walls under which I knew lay the
bodies of dozens Of dead or dying,
I saw heart breaking scenes.
Mothers ran through the cluttered
streets screaming for their chill
dren, husbands and wives sought
each other in terror lest their
search end in finding only the
mangled body of the loved one.
I saw dead mother lying in the
debris and in her arms was her
baby, its head smashed by falling
masonry.

Residents of long standing COM
pared today's catastrophe to those
in Costa Rica in 1910 which cost
1,500 lives, the one in Guatemala
in 1917 in which 2,500 died, and
the one in Nicaragua in 1881 in
which 1000 perished. They feared
the present one might eventually
prove the most terrible of all.

ing, only a few days ago the
Goodfellow editor printed an ap"
peal from a family in dire need.
They were about to be evicted
from their little flat.
Some Goodfellow read the ap-
peal and, as a result, this family
has a new lease on life. The rent
is paid, the Christmas visit from
Santa Claus to the children is as
sured and the whole family will
have a real Christmas rather than
worry and weep when most Of
us are celebrating the happiest
time of the year.
Others In Need
But there are others whose need
is just as great as was that OF
this family. For instance:
81 am writing this letter ask
ing if you will please try to find
someone who will bring a little
Christmas cheer to our chill
dren.
"My husband works with the
the WPA at $45 a month. Out
Of this he has to pay carfare
and when it rains he can't work
and he doesn't get paid.
eve have four children, three
boys and a girl. The boys are
aged six, four and two and the
little girl is two months old.
Our little girl has been in the
hospital since she was II days
old.
"The children are very much
in need of clothing. The two
year-Old boy has shoes that are
ripped on the sides and too
small for his feet. The elder
boys coats are too thin and
shabby to keep them warm.
Everything is in patches.
81 don't care whether the
children receive toys, as cloth
ing and something for their lit
tie StOmachs will do them more
good. We are unable to buy
fuel, except for little paper
bags Of coal here and there.
The house is very cold. The
boys have terrible chest colds
and there is no money in the
house for medicine"
This is an appeal that Shoulc
strike to the heart of every fathe1
and mother-a cry for children il
need. Not in need Of gee-gaws o.
useless things. but in need Of tht
very essentials of life. Wouldn'
some Goodfellow like to bring tC
this family not only these thing
they need so sorely, but also a lit
tie real joy at Yuletide?
Old People Appeal
But not only the young neec
help at Christmas. There are
or the Goodfellow editors list &
number Of old men and womer
who need someone to bring a little
brightness into what may be thu
last Christmas they will see.
There is a man of 80 who is II
need Of help-help of any kind
And woman OF "a is seriously II
need of clothing and would likC
to have some place that she coulc
caN home. Could someone tak'
pity on these two lonely souls who
at twilight of life. have nothing
and no one to whom they ma!
turn?
It's easy 70 be q ,Goodfellow
