CH|NA'S RED UNITS
WAIT CALL TO WAR
100000 Troops of Gen. Mao
Ready to Help Halt Foe
in Northwest.
By the Associated Press.

oS liit associated Press.
PEIPING. September TO- - The
powerful Chinese Communist armies
OF Gen. Mao Tse-tung were reliably
reported today preparing to take the
field in Shensi and Shansi Provinces
to block the thrust of the japanese
Army in Northwest China.
The first independent word of the
Communist forces in many weeks was
brought here today by foreign mis-
sionaries evacuating the interior.
They reported they had seen long
trains OF ammunition. light and heavy
artillery and all sorts of war supplies
moving westward from Gengyang
across the Yellow River to reinforce
the Shensi Communists.
Their 10-year-o difficulties with
the central government at Nanking
buried in the face of the present
crisis, the Communist armies. long
bitter foes of the spread of Japanese
influence. were awaiting orders to
cross the Yellow River into Shansi
Province and bolster the troops of
the aged warlord, Gen. Yen Hsi-shan.
Combining of Armies.
The 100000 well-trained Communist
troops would be added to an equal
number of Shansi provincial and CEN
tral government troops already con-
centrated in Northern Shansi Prov
mce where japanese have penetrated
after an advance from Peiping through
Southern Chahar Province.
United States missionaries, fleeing
from the Shansi zone of war, reported
that heavy Chinese forces were mass
ing at Yenmenkuan, the Great Wall
pass so miles south of strategic Ia
tung. where bloody battle was ex-
pected.
The japanese advance was reported
to have reached Yangkao, 30 miles
northeast OF Tatung, and to be press
ing on against the railroad junction
there.
Vast numbers of reinforcements
from Japan-many OF them high
school lads whose spare time is spent
searching out Chinese poetry books
were being concentrated here for the
push into Northwest China along the
railroad from Peiping TO Suiyuan
Province.
Harrying Operations.
Bands of Chinese irregulars were
marrying Japanese operations around
Peiping, and japanese bombers blasted
at Yuanmingyuan, the ancient Manchr
Summer palace, which lies. stark AND
ruined, miles northwest of Peipinp
near the American-supported Yen
ching University.
The Japanese bombing attack was
preparatory TO a general campaign tc
wipe out the Chinese irregulars. whose
raids through the lush field of corr
and kaoliang have played havoc
among the Japanese troops.

Tests prove that Kellogg's ALL
BRAN is safe and effective for cor

Within the body, ALL-BRAN abb

the intestines. It also furnishes
vitamin B to tone the intestines,
and iron for the blood.
Just eat two tablespoonful daily,
either as q cereal with milk or
cream, or in cooked dishes. Three
times daily in severe cases. You'll
find this food far better than habit
forming pills and drugs. ALL-BRAN

BY CARL L. DENIES

Laying aside the hatchet theme
for George Washington's birth
day, we have often wondered
whether he ever played on the
flute that sets on the piano Cor
is it a harpSichord), at Mount
Vernon. In Washington'S time
flute playing was much more
common accomplishment than it
is today.
While the flute of his day had
less keys than the present Boehm
system instrument, the older
flute was more difficult of manip-
ulation for fast passages than the
modern instrument. The fact that
more attention was given to deVel-
oping the mechanism of the piano
than to the woodwindS and braSses
probably accounts for much Of the
present popularity of the key
board instrument as compared to
the others mentioned.
While our Investigations have
not been exhaustive on the point
of Washington and the flute, we
have a secret feeling that anyone
who was inquisitive enough to cut
down a cherry tree to see what
made the sap flow, would also be
inquisitive enough to at least try
to play a flute, that is, If it were
setting on the piano where it now
reposes.
Heifetz, the famous violinist,
was lauded enthusiastically by an
audience that filled practically
every seat in Constitution Hall
yesterday afternoon. His perform
ance was fully up to every expecta-
ton of the fully matured artist
that he is. In fact, the projection
of warmth of personality seemed
to have measurably increased
since his last recital in Constitu-
tion Hall.
The selection Of his program
showed less reliance upon the wiz
ardry of technique, but rather
upon the solid musical appeal OF
the Vivaldi-Busch Suite" the
Beethoven Sonata No. 7" and the
Glazounoff Concerto" Although
it must be noted that in the ca
denza in the latter work, Heifetz
displayed some of the most exqui-
site and subtle double-stop work
that it has ever been our pleasure
to hear emanate from any violin.
Some of the most delightful Sc
lections of the group of shorter
works were the transcriptions
which Heifetz has made, such as
the Bax Mediterranean" lifting
waltz with intriguing four-part
chords played pizzicato; the deli
cate rhythm of Albeniz' eel
Puerto; the haunting melody
played on the muted strings of the
C "a telnuovo- -Tedesco "Sea-Mur-
murs," which was repeated because
of the response of appreciation;
and the typical Gypsy "Danza de la
Gitana," by Halffter.
The theme shown above from
the third, or Scherzo movement of
Schubert's symphony No. T." oc-
ours near the end of the movement
as if added as an afterthought.
This symphony will be included in
the program Of the U. S. Navy
Band Symphony Orchestra tomor-
