BAPTIST UNIVERSITY
APPEARS TO BE DOOMED

AffEANS ~ De bSS"AN
Shanghai University, operated
by the American Baptist Mission
but stated largely by Chinese,
appeared doomed. The university
is situated on the banks of the
Whangpoo river between Woo
sung and the international settle
ment.
In a driving rain, which herald
ed an approaching typhoon, lively
action was on between japanese
marines and Chinese troops On the
university campus. They eXchang-
ed brisk rifle and machine gun
fire without attempting to charge
each others positions.
Hysterical refugees poured into
the international settlement to es-
cape the guns of both Chinese and
Japanese.
Foreign business houses along
the Bund began closing.
Thousands of persons crossed
the garden bridge over Soochow
creek. japanese sailors crouched
behind sandbags at the north end
of the bridge toward the Japa-
nese consulate.
An armored car from the Rus
sian service company was parked
on the corner Of the Soviet en-
bassy 10 yards from the bridge.
Two armored cars approaching
the bridge caused a temporary
panic among the crowds.
One bomb aimed at the Idzumo
narrowly missed a Chinese ferry
boat in midstream, packed to the
gunwales with passengers. The
ferry halted, wavered and scud-
ded back to the Shanghai side.
The japanese naval attache dis
claimed responsibility for the
safety of Shanghai university. He
said the campus harbored Chinese
snipers, automatically ending
the status of a peaceful educa-
tional institution"
Seven japanese workmen were
reported to have been injured in
the Chinese bombing of the Kung-
.dah mill.
The U. S. Consulate general Of
ficialy advised all Americans re-
siding north of Sooehow creek in
the japanese and Chinese sections
to move to the opposite side. The
international settlement borders
Soochow creek.
The Broadway mansions, Astor
house, and the japanese and Sow
let consulates general are located
on the north side of the creek.

Fifty days after the Exodus the

have brought thee out of the land

New Police Barracks
 For Town Of Bethany
Beacon Falls Loses State Troopers Quarters Salary Increases Voted Compensation Commissioners

town of Litchfield are said to be displeased over the plan because they feel that their community is the seat of the county. However, it is argued by others, the barracks, by being in Canaan, will be more on the route used by heavy New York trafic during the summer months.
 The barracks in Bethany will be erected either next to or directly op- posite the Bethany airport. The Beacon Falls property will be dis- posed of as soon as the new Bethany barracks are erected.
 Salaries Increased
 The house of representatives yes- terday afternoon passed a bill rais- ing the salaries of the states five compensation commissioners from $5OOO to $6,50O. Compensation Com missioner James M. Lynch of Wa terbury benefits by this act. The bill was reported favorably last week by the committee on appropriations along with measur requiring Com missioner Lynch to hold regular sessions of his, court in Torring- ton. The other four commissioners are also ordered to travel more about their respective districts.
 Small Loans
 With the senate and house yes- terday passing two distinctly diff ferent bills on small loan rates of interest the chance of reducing the present rate of per cent were doubtful today. The senate passed bill reducing the rate to per cent per month. The house passed a bill providing for 3 per cent rate on loans up to $50 and 2 per cent rate on loans from $50 to $500. On the floor of the senate Senator George T. Culhane of Wa terbury stated that the governor had assured him he would sign the 2 per cent bill. Representative John D. Thoms of Waterbury similarly informed the house.
 However, the house did not see fit to reduce the rate to a fiat 2 per cent. Two years ago the senate and house passed 8 per cent bill but the governor vetoed it. Now judging from the statements of Culhane and Thoms, he has changed his mind on what hc considers a just interest rate on Smoll loans.

(Dem0crat Legislative Rep0rteFD
 State Capitol, Hartford, April 9. Especial to the Democrat)-While two new police barracks in the vicinity of Waterbury are planned neither of them will be located on the sites originally recommended to the legislative committee on appro- priations, it has been learned on ex- cellent authority. One of the bar racks was proposed for the nearby town of uitchfield. The other new barracks was proposed for Beacon Falls to take the place of the quar- ters now in use there by the state police.
 The new barracks in Litchf1eld county will be erected, 1t is under stood, in the town of Canaan. The Beacon Falls barracks will be done away with and new ones erected in the town of Bethany. The appro- priations committee, of which Rep resentative Daniel J. Mahaney of Waterbury is member, is now con- sidering items in the budget for the next biennium to take care of the two projects.
 Inadequate
 At the present time there are bar racks in the town of East Canaan in Litchfield county but they are in poor condition and not adequate to accommodate the men stationed in that part of the state. Therefore 1t has been decided not only to erect 8 new building but also to move the headquarters into the town of Canaan, proper. Residents of the

New Air Program Tinted

: Japan may be compelled to ex- pand its army air force beyond that provided for in the six-year program of perfection or arma- ments if Russia greatly increases Its air force. This was intimated by War Minister Hajime Sugiyama at meeting at Tokyo of sub committee of the budget committee of the House of Representatives. With completion of the present six-year program" he said, T think we can fairly well maintain bal ance with the Soviet Union. How ever, should the Soviets, who are concentrating on an increase in the strength of their air force, un- dertake any marked degree of ex- benson of aerial armaments, Japan would have to take that into ac- count.
