It is scheduled to last two and
a half hours. Police authorities in
the settlement are taking utmost
precautions to prevent disorders
among Chinese spectators.
MASSACRE POSSIBLE
Foreign authorities here we're
thrown into a near panic when
the japanese revealed their plans
for the march and tried their ut
most to persuade the japanese to
abandon the idea. But the latter
were obdurate.
Foreign officials particularly
feared the parade might lead to
street fighting between the march
ing troops and Chinese-with a
possible massacre and untold loss
of foreign life and property should
rioting break out.
Nippon's drive to the West,
aimed at capturing Marking, re-
suited today in a smashing battle
in the Tanyang sector, only so
miles east of the capital, now
virtually deserted save for its
military defenders.
Spurred on by their command
ers, Chinese forces reinforced by
some 10000 fresh troops from
the interior put up a desperate
bid to halt the japanese advance.

JAPANESE SHIPS ATTACKED
, SHANGHAI, Dec. 2 G.N.S0.
Warfare returned to Shanghai
today as two Chinese bombing
planes tried, without success, to
sink the japanese flagship Idzumo
at anchor in the Whangpoo River.
The planes, flying at a height
of 10000 feet, also attacked other
japanese warships moored off
Woosung,
In retaliation, six japanese
planes raided Nanking, engaging
in a spectacular air battle with
30 Soviet-built planes, 13 Of which
were claimed to have been shot
down.
Meanwhile, fierce fighting
ragged on the western front as
japanese armies met desperate
resistance from Generalissimo
Chang Kai4Shek's legions, who
battled to check the Nipponese
advance on Marking.
At the same time, japanese

UNWED MOTHER
FACES LOSS OF
PLEA FOR CHILD
Forfeited Rights, Judge
Rules in Case

CHICAGO, Oct. IL (C.TP.S)
Miss Della Staszkie, 21-year-old un
wed mother. of White Cloud
Mich, will lose her little daughter
permanently, to the child's foster
parents, Circuit Judge Daniel P
Trude indicated today.
Fudge Trude said he would per
NIT the girls attorney, Lloyc
Moody, to argue precedent Thurs
day morning opposing his ruling
but announced he was convinced
of the right of the foster par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. Paul Richter, tt
keep the child.
SEEKS RETURN ON WRIT
Miss StaSZkie was seeking writ
Of habeas corpus to force the fos
ter parents to return Florence
Ann, two-and-a-half years old, who
was born tc the unwed girl in the
Richter home. The child's certi

DR.. John A. Rose, who signed the
false birth certificate in the highly
publicized case of Donald Horst
However, witnesses declared that
DR.. Rose really believed Miss
Staszkie was Mrs. Richter.
Judge Trude deplored Miss
Staszkie's Ignorance" in not going
to the law, which compels the
father of an illegitimate child to
pay $1,100 for its support.
when befriended by the
Richters she gave up the right,
given her by Divine Power, to
keep her child" he said. THE
Richters sacrificed to support
the child since its birth, and
are entitled to keep her.
STUNNED DISGRACE
my personal feeling" the
Judge concluded, "is that a
mother is entitled to her child
unless she forfeits that right"
Previous testimony had shown
that she had borne the child
secretly and had Immediately
given it to the Richters "to es
cape the disgrace" The testimony
came from Mrs. Ann Scavone,
who first befriended the girl and
introduced her to the Richters.
Della didn't want her child
and Mrs. Richter wanted one"
Mrs. Scavone said. st asked her
il she was sure she wanted to
give up her baby, but Della
wanted to escape all the dis
grace"
Mr.. and Mrs Richter testified
that they agreed to befriend the
girl on her promise that they
might keep the child. The baby
was born in the Richter home
May 5, 1885.

children TO wear next winter And then
the memory of that pitiful squeal kept
ringing in his ears. So, after going quite
long distance with his companions, Lin
coin turned his horse and rode back alone
to rescue the pig. Taking some rails from
the fence, he negotiated safe footing for
himself by laying them in the mud beside
the pig. While passersby looked on laugh
ing, Lincoln extricated the pig from the
mud. AS the animal ran grunting off to-
ward the farmhouse, Lincoln looked at
his soiled clothes with satisfied smile, as
much as to say, well, little water and
brushing will soon make the clothes look
clean again, and l don't care if people do
laugh at me; the pigs out of his misery,

Such was the great heart of Abraham
Lincoln.
7 INCOLN'S friends assert that his fine
Il humor, which was always with him,
did not change the fact that his face, in re-
pose, was the saddest they ever saw. Lin
coin never could see suffering without
doing all he could to relieve it. With all
his jokes and stories, his great, hungering
heart was full of sympathy for the
troubles of others. During his sorrowing
years in the White House new network
of wrinkles and seams narrowed his
homely face, and his sunken eyes appeared
to deepen and sadden in their sockets. His

kindly countenance soon became sensi-

Run and Charlottesville left their wav-

of the soldiers lives, the privations of the
prisoners, the agonies of the wounded,
the anguish of the bereaved - all traced
their burrows in the rugged features of
the all-friendly face of Father Abraham" :"
