Chinese Forces
to Quit Kwantung
Will Avoid Clash With Jap

SHANGHAI, China, Sept. b
(UP).-Chinese reports today said
the famous 10Th Route Army was
withdrawing from Pakhoi, kwan-
tung province, as Japanese war
ships in the harbor prepared TO
protect the landing of commits
sion investigating the recent muir

The army was being withdrawn
by Gen. Dong Chao-Iuan VINO
previously declared martial law
and said he would resist the land
ing of a Japanese investigation
commission. The withdrawal avert
ed a possible outbreak of hostlll-
ties similar to the Shanghai war
in 1882 when the 10th Route
Army fought off the japanese Tor

Russia. ssssf
Germany's noisy quarreling with
Soviet Russia during the past week
is regarded here as notice:
/. That Germany will not reaf-
firm the Lacarno settlements, to-
ward which France is now striv-
ing so long as Frances mutual Sc
curity pact with Russia exists.
g To the Soviets that any in
reference by Russia with Ger
many's present plan for economic
pressure on Czechoslovakia to
swing that country into the Fas-
cist column will be met with i'm
mediate war.
3. To France that the alliance
with Russia exposes France to the
danger of being dragged into a
disastrous war to assist Soviet
Russia, with little chance of gain
ing anything thereby. The un-
precedented batting of the Sow
lets by Hitler, it is believed here,
is practically a challenge to Sow
let Russia to make the attack.
This would afford France an
opportunity to escape from the
alliance inasmuch as the pact re-
quires France to go to Russia S
aid only if Russia is attacked by
another power on the European
front. 1t sbelieved Hitler has
good grounds for thinking France
would take advantage of such an
escape opportunity.
The long-run objective of Hit
ler's present maneuvering, it is
believed, is economic domination
of Czechoslovakia, tying that
country politically to Germany.
This would give Germany friend
ly country through which to march
Nazi legions to the very borders
of Russia.
Czechoslovakia also is an i'm
portant munitions producing coun-
try.
Only a short distance from her
borders lie the great Transvanian
oil fields from which come one of
the principal sinews of war which
Hitler would need in event of war
with Soviet Russia.
Officials here believe that when
the way has been opened through
Czechoslovakia for the Nazi hord-
es, and an avenue has been OPEN
ed for oil supplies from the great
fields just to the southeast, Ger
many will be ready to strike, and
not until then. The question up
permost in military minds here is
whether the Soviets. will OF can
stand by and wait for that time.

WOULD REDUCE
PUNISHMENT IN
N.C.BY DEATH
Abolitionists of Capita
Punishment to Carry
Fight to Floor

RALEIGH, Sept. Is. (UP).-
movement for modification OF cap
ital punishment in North Carolina
already is under way and probab-
" will play an important part in
the 1887 general assembly.
Partial and total abOlitionistS
of capital punishment plan to car
nv their fight to the floor of the
legislature. Statistics on state
prison neurology recently compil-
ed probably will be used by those
favoring modification of the death
penalty.
Several legislators would amend
the statutes so as to give juries
the fixing of punishment and to
provide that no death penalty
shall be imposed for burglary or
arson unless there is capital
crime connected.
The abolitionists probably will
use the current statistics to prove
their thesis that frightfulneSS by
the state does not work.
Statistics show that the death
penalty has been heavily dealt
during the Ehringhaus admins
tration. Fifty-hve already have
died in the electric chair and leth-
al gas chamber since Governor J.
c. b. Ehringhaus came into of
fee.
During the administration Of
Governor Kitchen, which saw the
chair supplant the gallOws, ~
men paid the death penalty.
Those who remember Governor
Craig say ne was a sentlmentalst
and went a long way before sign
ing a death warrant. There were
II to die in the electric chair dur
ing his term of office.
Governor Beckett was critlcz-
ed for his record of pardonS and
combinations, yet p men died
under his administration for cap
ital crimes. Following him, came
Governor Cameron Morrison who
reviewed the cases of 10 men be-
fore they died.
Governor A. w. Mclean per-
mitted % men to die. His most
famous clemency case came out
of the Stewart conviction IN
Brunswick county. Father and son
went to the electric chair on the
same day.
Then came Governor .. Max
Gardner, who permitted 30 men
70 die. His list, at the time, was
the biggest of them all. !
But now that list has good
chance Of being doubled. With 80
already dead, at least five more
will die before Governor Ehring-
haus relinquishes the executive
chair.

World PEACE
IS IN BALANCE,
CAPITAL VIEW
Europe Unprepared for
War But Only "Incident"
Needed to Start One
1886, by United Press

| Copyright, i0So' ~
WASHINGTON, Sept. IS. (UP)'
Europe today is closer to the out
break of a general war than at
anv time in the last Is years, adj
ministration leaders fear
OFFICIALS are watching day-to-
dav developments practically with
hafed breath as the unprecedent-
ed hurting of invective, insult
challenge and defiance between
the leaders of Germany and Sow
let Russia sets new records IN IN
ternational discord. World peace
or what passes for peace, IN THESE
DAVIS of feverish preparation 1of
war hangs in the balance.
It is the consensus of leaders
hove that neither Germany nor
Soviet Russia desires War-yet.
Neither is believed to be thor
oughly ready for such a struggle.
II IS believed, however, that only
an unhappy "incident" is lacking
to ignite the powder magazine
which has been built up during
the past Is months.
Leaders here-and it is bellev-
cd those of Germany and Soviet
Russia likewise - hope that the
''incident" may not be supplied.
In that case the present crisis may
slip into history as another false
alarm and the peace of Europe
will be spared for yet awhile.
During January and February
1898, the leaders Of Europe fear
cd that war might be imminent
when Chancellor Adolf Hitler tore
m the military clauses of the Yer
SALES treaty and announced the
formation of a modern German
army. l.,
European peace again hung by
q slender thread at the outbreak
Of the talo-Ethiopian war when
! Great Britain sent the major por-
tion of her fleet to the Medlter,

moved her armed legions into the

icies of Europe were not ready
for war.

yolving Italy. Germany an d
France appeared imminent. The
threat passed.
Through all these successive
crises administration leaders here
have been aroused to concern toI
world peace. but through them all
thew have felt confident that a
real outbreak would be averted
by wise craftsmanship and poker
playing sense not to push the bluff
too far.
Leaders here-and they include
our military and naval officers as
we'll as state department officials
recognize the international game
being played in Europe as 81,
gantic poker game, with men and
guns being used in lieu of chips,
and natural resources the pot"
represented by those chips. They
look upon Hitler as the heaviest
plunger in the game, at present
playing a desperate game of bluff:
They believe that the object of
his present bluff is to induce, or
to brighten, France into renuncia-
ton of the Franco-Soviet Russian
mutual security pact. Hitler de-

THE REAL GOAL

The phrase "pearly white teeth
may have a place in romantic litera-
ture but according to DIR. Richard c.
Leonard, Chief of the Division of Or
al Hygiene of the State Department
of Health, it cannot be applied to
normal teeth and it has no standing
so far as dental science is concerned.
"In the first place, normal teeth, "
DR.. Leonard said, "even when scru-
pulously clean, are seldom white.
They are delicately shaded in various
tints of gray or yellow, fitting in
with the tints of the skin. To at
tempt to make them dazzling white
is to strive for the unnatural. I'm
less carried on under very strict su-
pervision by your own dentist, eff
forts to change the normal shade of
the teeth are likely to prove exceed
ingly harmful to the teeth. The use
of drugs or dentifrice to whiten the
teeth is very dangerous procedure.
"The phrase falls short in another
way. Lost pearls can be replaced by
others of equal or greater value. The
best that can be done for lost teeth
is to supply a substitute. Dental
science does splendid job in sup
plying artificial teeth for those that
are lost but such substitutes do not
equal the natural, healthy teeth in
value.
"In dental care, the real goal
should be the maintenance of the
teeth in a normal, healthy condition,
free from surface stains and struc-
tural defects and capable of chewing
the food properly. The essential
requisites to accomplish this are: (1)
a balanced diet which includes green
leafy vegetables, milk, other dairy
products and plenty of fresh fruits,
(2) habitual cleanliness of the mouth,
(3) periodical dental examinations
and individual advice"
