Hyde Park, N. Y, Sept. 11.-(AF0-
President Roosevelt said today the
Far Eastern and Mediterranean sit
uations had made the people jittery
all over the world, and rightly so.
Talking at press conference at
the summer White House, the Presi-
dent agreed with a reporters obser-
walton the Sino-Japanese conflict and
the submarine piracy" in the Medit-
erranean had created a widespread
psychological feeling of nervousness.
The reporter used the word ''jittery"
and the President accepted it, adding
the people were justified in feeling
this way about present conditions.
He said this was the reaction all
over the world, not only in financial
circles, but in every home and every
democratic government.
Meantime, at Washington, Hay
wood Patterson, one Of the nine Ne
groes involved in the celebrated
Scottsboro case, apeapled to the Su-

CHINESE EXCEL OVER FOE

Shanghai, Sept. 11-(AP)-A smash
ing drive inland from the Yangtze
river today brought Japanese and Chi
nese hand to hand. locked in one of
the most important battles of the
Sino-Japanese undeclared war.
Japanese legions swept up from the
river to push China's troops back to
Yanghong, where the Yangtze and
Whangpoo rivers join.
For "a hours the Japanese steadily
hammered the Chinese back until
Japan had one-third of Yanghong, but
later they were forced to give up the
section under terrific Chinese attacks.
An aerial and artillery lombard
ment projected the Japanese move

When the attackers reached the city,
however, they were forced to retire
after hand-to-hand fighting in which
the Chinese seemed to have superior
ity. Once the push was halted Chinese
summed heavy reinforcements in an
effort to regain their lost positions.
Casualties in the battle were the

WORRYING NATIONS
American Policy Enbar-
raises "Warring" Pow
ers Elsewhere
By CHARLES p. STEWART
Central Press COlumniSt

Washington, Sept. 11.--America' S
neutrality law is not working at all
satisfactorily from Americas own
standpoint. It's trainers, however, are
having the fun of seeing that it is
proving exceedingly embarrassing to
much of the remainder of the world.
Britain and France cannot conven-
iently go to the mat with Italy and
Germany over the Spanish situation.
If they do, it is on the cards that
Uncle Sam will declare the existence
of a state of war between their re-
spective alliances, making it at least
tremendously difficult for them to get
needed supplies from this side of the
Atlantic. True, they still will be per-
mitted to buy from us if they pay
cash and carry their purchases home
in their own vessels. And Britain, at
least has the vessels. None of the
European countries can afford to pay
much cash, however.
In the Far East, Japan is in the
same fix. It has ships to transport
what it needs from our Pacific ports
to it's own shores, but it hasn't the
cash to pay the bill at our waterfront
No Help Here.
The British and French also want
American support in the Orient.
The British, especially, have huge
interests there which Japan threatens.

LABOR MENMEET
AGAIN TOMORROW
Little Peace Hope Held.
Session May Be Last for
a Long Time.

The peace committees" Of the
American Federation of Labor and the
Committee for Industrial Organization
will meet again tomorrow, but there
was little hope they would be able to
compose TIE differences that have
divided organized labor into two war
ring camps
So far apart, in fact, are thestwo
groups, that there was talk last night
that tomorrows meeting may be the
last for a long time.
As the labor negotiators were con-
sidering their next moves, the Ameri-
can Association for Economic Free
dom, with the stated objective of
establishment Of human rights and
democratic safeguards in industry and
economic life" opened Offices here.
Some 800 churchmen, educators and
others prominent in liberal movements
were listed as sponsors. William Allen
White, Emporia, KanS, editor. was
listed as chairman of the National
Policy Board and w. Jett Lauck,
Washington economist, as vice chair
man.
Statement of Principles.
A statement of principles and OBJ
1ectives asserted 1.-The effort now being
made by organized labor to unionize
the workers in all industries is
in reality crusade for the political
and economic emancipation of a great
multitude of our fellow citizens who
are employed in industries which deny
them the elementary rights of free
speech, free assembly and free asso-
ciation."
Organized labor's peace conference
has been virtually deadlocked since it
first convened nearly two months ago.
Both William Green, A. F. Of L. presi-
dent, and John L. Lewis, c. I. O.
chairman, have indicated in recent
speeches that neither intended to make
any major concessions.
Mr. Green told labor meeting in
Buffalo, N. Y, that the house of the
American Federation of Labor must be
maintained at any cost"
Patience is a virtue and we have
been patient" he added, "but there
comes time when even patience must
end. Unless settlement is reached
soon, the A. F.. of l.. will arm its forces
and turn them loose against this raid
ing organization"
Mr.. Lewis told steel workers con-
vention in Pittsburgh that the A. F.
of L, would have to take all or none
Of the c. I. O., as he proposed when

offer and says it does not want 4,00o,-

"It would like to have about 1000, ,00C

new members to see how 1t could digest
them first and think about the other
3,00O,000
Recently Mr.. Green said he was
arming representatives of the A. F. Of
L. for war on the G. I. O. I think
what he had in mind was pop guns"
When the peace conference started
the G. I. o. proposed that the A. F..
of L. take in the entire c. l. o. as q
semi division, with con-
troll Of all mass production industrial
unions.
The A. F. of L. rejected that flatly
and countered with q proposal that
the - c. I. o. unions that once be-
longed to the A. F. Of L. return. The
remaining 20 G. I. o. unions, the fed
