A sidelight of the Sennful Island
 clash is that the island groups in
 that neighborhood normally accom-
 modate only a light house, manned
 by Manchukuans. At times the islands
 are totally submerged in mid July,
 so that there was a possibility that two weeks from now the territory
 which caused this dispute might be under water.
 The stock market rallied today but
 there was disagreement as to the significance of the rise. Some attrib-
 uted it to an improved diplomatic situation, others to the possibility of a boom in armament production. Differ on Fight Start The foreign office received con- plete resume of the conversations in Moscow between Boris Stomoniakov, vice-commissar of foreign affairs,
 and Ambassador Shigemitsu. The
 latter asserted that the Soviets had fired illegally, violating Litvinov's promise that the Russians would withdraw, and that therefore the Soviets should assume responsibility for any resulting events.
 Stomoniakov replied that Litvinov had never promised Soviet with drawal without simultaneous Jap anese withdrawal. He also asserted the eSe-ManchukuanS started

Rev. William J. MCGarry
 to Continue Policies of His Predecessor

Newton, Mass, July 2-(UP) )-The Rev. William J. McGarry, s. J., A3, new president of Boston college, will continue the policies of his prede- cessor.

 My first task is to learn the good traditions of the university" he said. q will become acquainted with good friends of the university and seek to carry on the work done so well by the JeSuitS before me-"
 Sports To Prevail
 Sports have a Large part in the development of college spirit and patriotism" but should be main tained in their proportional place, he said. Father McGarry, a native of Hamilton, completed his theolog- ical studies in 1926 and was granted @ doctor of sacred theology degree by Woodstock, (Md.) college. He then was appointed to Weston (Mass) college. From 1928 to 1930 he was at the Pontifical Biblical in- stitute in Rome where, on complet- ing course in scriptural studies, he received degree of licentiate in sacred scripture with honors.
 Dean of Philosophy
 He returned to Weston college and from 1880 to 1884 was dean of philosophy and from 1884 to 1887 was general dean. of studies. Since 1884, he has been assistant editor for theology of the magazine Thought, a Jesuit quarterly.
 Father Gallagher, who succeeded the Rev. James H. Dolan, s. J., Jan. 1, 1882, has been assigned tempor- arily to Boston college high school. He will receive another appoint ment probably in late August.

FOUR NATIONS IN

The statement rejected the Franco-British proposal for dual control of the Spanish coast, say- ing:
 "The main reason is that the equality of treatment of the two parties in Spain which was granted under the four-power scheme has been disturbed in favor of one party in Spain. The two governments are conscious of the real difficulties of the situation and think that all the more it is the duty of all to seek new ways to make non-intervention as effective as possible.
 Ensure Advantages
 "The proposed measure would en- sure, moreover, the following ad- vantages:
 Firstly, by conferring interna- tiona1 status on the two parties in Spain, the latter would assume to- wards neutral states full responsi- bility for the conduct of warfare by air, land and sea.
 Secondly, the patrol system by the four powers, which utterly fail ed, as well as any other form of naval patrol, would be unnecessary.
 Thirdly, the serious loopholes ex- isting in the former system would be eliminated, inasmuch as ships flying either the Spanish flag or the flag of non-European countries would be submitted by the two par ties to an effective form of control"

 Thus the matter was at a stale. mate because of inability to agree or a factual basis, as has been the cast in dozens of previous less serious border disputes which were never settled.
 Emperor in Close Touch
 The emperor kept in close touch with events. He received Prince Kanin, chief of staff of the army and Gen. Hajime Sugiyama, wal minister, and listened to reports o. the Amur affairs.

 Japanese Ambassador Mamoru Shigemitsu was expected at the for eign commissariat during the day with the reply, which may show the course to be taken by the govern ments in the serious dispute caused by a clash of Russian and Japan csc Manchukuan forces on the wind ing river which forms the frontier.
 American Ambassador Joseph E. Davies watched the situation closely after his statement of last night, ex- pressing the personal hope that the incident would be localized and not permitted to develop into a serious international situation.
 Litvinov made his proposal for withdrawal of forces at a conference with Shigemistu yesterday. Litvinov said that Russia was ready to re- call its men at once if Japan and Manchukuo would recall theirs and and he suggested that this might be good time to start demarkation of the boundary so that danger of fur ther incidents would be minimized.

 Why They Were Beaten
 James Mark, leader of the Stee Workers Organizing committee strike here, charged the men were beaten because they were recog- nized as active pickets." s. D. Ev- ans, Bethlehem industrial relations director, denied knowledge of the incident.
 As the strike entered its 21st day the company claimed operations were virtually normal" despite walkouts of steelworkers, coal min CTS in the company's captive" pits and railroad workers employed or the Conemaugh and Blacklick line transportation unit of the Cambris plant.

 The Massillon plants have been closed since the Seven-state steel strike began more than month ago but maintenance men have remained on the company property. Both company and union officials said that this is one of the strong c. I o. centers in Ohio and pointed out that the strike broke in MaSsilon one day before it became effective in other steel centers.
 Firing Up Furnaces
 The non-strikers returning to the Massilon plant began firing furnaces and preparing for resumption ot op- erations over the weekend. About 4,2OO men are employed in the two plants in normal times.
 The strike front continued tense in Canton, where crowds shouted 1n- suits at militiamen escorting non- strikers to their homes and guard ing the plant gates. Republic Mills were reported speeding up opera ttons there although picket lines continued active. Recurrent acts ot Vandalism and threats against non- strikers kept the troops busy.

 Travel agencies such as the American Express met the problem by transferring many tourists 10 Great Britain for the week end.
 All well known tourist gathering places, like Harry's Bar, will be closed. To drink, tourists will have to get bottled goods and drink in their rooms. Restaurants which serve American food, such as the Chicago Inn and the Pam-Pam, will have to close though they are doing their best business in nine years.
 The one hope for regular meals for tourists lay in the little cafes and restaurants where only mem- bers of the owners family are en- gagged. But many of these are anxious, fearing that pressure may be brought on them to join the big ger places on strike. Anyway, such places as will be open will be in side-street locations, hard for tour ists to find.

After @ spectacular take-off, missing the end of the runway by only 50 yards, she aimed the silver monoplane east ward over a route never before travelled by plane. She expected to arrive here in IS hours (about p. m. EDT).
 1000 Feet in Air | At 3 D. m. Friday, New Guinea time q a. m. Friday EDT) Miss Earhart reported by wireless that she was flying at an altitude of 1000 feet and at speed of 140 knots (161 M.P.H).
 In addition to crossing the equa- tor just west of here, Miss Earhart will cross the international date line, thereby arriving here the same day of her departure, Friday. But before crossing the date-line she will be flying in zone whose time is Saturday.
 If she completes the flight in 1a hours her arrival here will be at about 2 a. m. Friday (Howland time), or three hours before the time she left Lac. Before she crosses the date line, about 200 miles west of here, it will be early Saturday morning (Gilbert Islands time).
 Dead Reckoning
 The entire flight must be navi- gated by dead-reckoning and what ever radio help Miss Earhart can get from the U. S. naval supply ship, Ontario, stationed about mid- way along the route. Anchored oil this cigar-shaped speck of an island was the coast guard cutter, Itasca, from Honolulu, ready to radio final bearings. There are no ship lanes on the route, and Miss Earhart's sole contact with the world will be through the Ontario and the Itasca.
 Here a small crew of WPA work CTS, who built a crude airport along the two-mile surface of coral rock, will burn flares at night and smudge signals by day to guide the flyer to land. The Itasca will keep a power ful arc light circling the heavens at night.
 Navigator Has Tough Job
 Navigator Noonan's task was most difficult. So tiny is Rowland Island and its nearest neighbor, Baker Island, 30 nautical miles southeast of here, that a miss by not more than 25 miles might send the plane roaring by without sight of their surf-rimmed surfaces.
 Richard Black of the department of interior, in charge of advance preparations, reported the islands three runways in excellent condition. The main north-south one is 4.50O feet long, but a strong east wind may force Miss Earhart to use the 5000 foot east-west, or the $500 foot northeast-southwest runways.
 Elaborate Reception
 Elaborate preparations were made at Itasca town, name of the How land colony, to receive the flyers. A private shower and bunk room was ready for Miss Earhart. The shower is a special luxury, because there is no fresh water supply.
 Gasoline and oil supplies for her next hop-1,800 miles to Honolulu also were ready.
 Miss Earhart has proceeded this far in her equatorial flight by easy stages. taking exactly a month to fly from Miami, Fla, to Lac. It was her second attempt. Her first flight ended in a crash at Hawaii on March 20 as she took of for Rowland Island on a west-east at tempt.
 She hoped to cover the last 1000 mile expanse of the Pacific to the United States by Sunday.
