NEW YORK, July GN.S).
John Roosevelt, the Presidents
youngest son, may or may not be
engaged to Anne Clark, Provi-
dence (R. ~ belle, but today that
question was lost in the beat of a
ships propeller and the soft roar
of a Sea-green wake.
John is to sail at noon on the
Conte de Savoia for Europe, &C
companied by his grandmother,
Mrs. James Roosevelt, and a num-
Der of friends. Miss Clarke will
not be among them. The story is
that Johns trip is a fond grand
mothers reward for diligence over
his books as a Junior at Harvard.
Both young Roosevelt and his
grandmother denied he was en-
gagged to Miss Clark. Said John,
in good humor:
'Now look here, can't a fellow
take a girl out without being
engaged to marry her? I'm not
engaged. / really am not en-
gagged to Miss Clark"
Mrs. Roosevelt took the question
good-naturedly, too. She said:
"Now, does it look as though
they're engaged? Do engaged
people leave one another to sail
to Europe? Anne is a sweet,
charming girl, and they think
great deal of each other. Be-
side, you must remember, John

A final militant gesture by the
Kwantung Japanese continentaD
army, however, accompanied the
evacuation.
Army headquarters here issued
a statement expressing "satisfac-
ton" over the agreement reached
in Moscow by Ambassador Ma
moru Shigemitsu and Foreign
CommiSSar Maxim Litvinov.
But, the Army warned, Japan
and Manchukuo will not tolerate
any further illegal acts by the
Soviets against Manchu terri
tory" The warning referred to
an alleged invasion" Of Manchu-
kuo by Soviet gunboats, where
upon Japanese artillery sank one.
Orders for withdrawal Of Soviet
patrols from the Amur River
islands were issued early today by
the war commissariat, and diplo-
matte circles here generally agreed
with Shigemitsu's statement.
BY issuing the withdrawal or
ders, the Soviet government side
stepped the possibility of war with
Japanese Manchukuoan forces in
the gravest situation the Far
Eastern powers have faced for
many years-possibly since the
Russo-Japalls Se war 80 years ago.
The scare was provoked by an
engagement in the Amur River in
which japanese artillery sank one
Russian gunboat with loss of life,
crippled another and forced a third
to flee. However, the tension was
dissipated as suddenly as it arose.
