DR.. WANG REGRETS
CIVILIANS DEATHS
Says Lives Sacrificed in De-
tense Against Japan's "In-
Satiab|e MiIitarism."
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
DR.. Chengting T. Wang. Chinese
Ambassador to the United States
said in a statement tonight. 1T is to be
regretted that civilian lives have been
sacrificed in China's defense Of de-
mocracy against Unsuitable Japanese
militarism"
DR.. Wang asserted that his gov
ernment had deliberately refrained"
from the use OF aircraft since the
Lukouchiao incident Of July for
fear OF endangering the lives and
properties Of civilians.
But Japan" he said. has repeat
edly resorted to the use Of airplanes
not only in bombarding Chinese
positions and strategic places far be-
yond the theater Of hostilities but also
in wanton destruction OF cultural
and civic centers and innocent lives.
Recently Japan purposely created
another incident in Shanghai with a
view to repeating the 1882 hostili-
ties and to threatening the economic
and financial center of China. In the
present conflict, as in that Of 1882,
Japan is using the International Set
tlement in Shanghai and the adjoin-
ing Whangpoo River as a military
and naval base in its offensive actions
against China. thereby imperiling the
lives and properties OF all foreign
nationals residing in Shanghai"

w. P. A. labor adviser, who, they said,
agreed to recommend a survey to OBJ
tain statistics on the number of phys
ically handicapped, how many are
employed and how many unemploy-
able. This is one OF the items in the
four point program asked Of w. P. A.
by the league.
The others are that all unemployed
handicapped persons be placed on w.
P. A. rolls, that all those who have
been dismissed be reinstated and that
all now on the rolls be retained.
Harry Friedman. president of the
league, said last night that If every
thing else fails we shall 60 to the

w. P. A. administrator, was out Of

from the group would try to see him on
his return.
We'll stay here until we achieve
our aims. because we've no reason to
60 back to New York" Friedman said.
There's nothing to 90 back to. Fifteen
Of our number left their Jobs on W. P.
A. to come down here and the rest are
unemployed
He said Jewish welfare league here

and on the sidewalk, talking quietly
and smoking cigarettes. A number OF

CHECK ON RELIEF
TRIM IS BLOCKED
SchWeIIenbach Offers Bill
to Curb Discharge Rate.
Austin HaIts Action.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Senator Austin. Republican, Of Yer
mont blocked immediate consideration
yesterday Of legislation which would
check the w. P. AS program OF relief
roll reduction.
The measure. proposed by Senator
Schwellenbach, Democrat, Of WASH
ington, would prevent the Works Prog
ress Administration from discharging
any one unable to find employment
in private industry and would permit
those on relief rolls to return to the
rolls after taking temporary employ
ment.
SchwellenbAch complained that the
w. P. A. had fixed quotas which
would result in reducing the rolls on
October 100000. more than was
contemplated when Congress approved
the relief appropriation.
schwellenbach said the planned re-
duction was $50 900 from the July l
total, instead of 5s5,000 which, he
said, was the number oficials said
would be cut under the 81 500, 900, 900
relief appropriation.
Cost Held Overemphasized.
Aubrey williams, assistant Works
Progress administrator, meanwhile
told q House labor subcommittee that
Congress had overemphasized con-
sideration OF the cost OF unemploy-
ment relief instead OF seeking = solu-
ton Of the problem.
He supported a proposal by Repre-
sentative Maverick. Democrat, Of
Texas to create 4 Federal-civic COM
mission with power and money to
conduct an exhaustive study Of the
major trends and economic back
ground" OF unemployment.
Williams reiterated, however, that
joblessness and insecurity were "A per-
manent problem" in this country.
We probably will never live to
see the day when it will disappear,
he said.
Maverick said his resolution called
for an appropriation of $4,000, but
said similar survey in England 80
years ago cost approximately s5o0000
and that probably an equal sum would
be required here.
True Appraisal Needed.
William Hodson, New York City's
public welfare commissioner, asserted
the task was no Job for ordinary
politicians or headline hunters" but
would be worth its weight In gold
If it gives the Nation a trle ap-
praisal Of the situation and some
sound leads for future action"
The New Yorker agreed with Ma
verick the proposed commission should
provide for citizen participation, warn
ing there had been grave abuse of
investigatory powers by purely legis-
lative investigating committees.

Commissioner w. David Tilgnman
said today he plans to ask the 1889

Tilghman said his investigations in
connection with small loan companies
showed the present law was "ridicu-

The law, he said, provided that no
lender may charge more than s per

the Small Loan Act. Under that act.
interest of not more than 81, per
cent is prescribed for loans of $500
or less.
No penalty is provided under the
present usury law except that the
lender must forfeit any interest in
excess of per cent should a case
against him be proven in court.

The only redress a loan shark"

can't sue us because they haven't
money enough to pay a lawyer
