tramping past the reviewing stand
long after the sun gave up ana
dropped behind the skyscrapers on
the edge of the Hudson river. NO

A million watched. And there
would have been another million

it was a mathematical impossible

was reported unofficially last
night that the British government
shortly may approach the United
States to learn what the reaction
would be in Washington If Brl-
tain should withdraw her ambas-
sador from Tokyo.
The foreign office would not
comment upon the report. .
1t was apparent. however, tnat
the government viewed the Chi
nese-Japanese situation with In
creasing gravity and that Foreign
Secretary Anthony Eden realized
that if Japan carries out her an,
nounced unrestricted aerial
bombing of Marking, final de-
cision on the question of British
Japanese relations may be neces-
Sary. ..,
Withdrawal of the British am
bassador, Sir Robert L. Craigle'
who has just arrived in the Japa-
nese capital, was considered to be
the only protest London could
make to cause Japan to realize
the danger in the trend OF events
she has forced in Eastern ASIA.
Diplomats said that London Is
attempting to cooperate" close
ly with Washington in the Far
East situation and that the Brit
ish representations which Ambas-
sador Craigie made to japanese
Foreign Minister Koki in Tokyo
Yesterday were decided upon only
after consultation with the Uni
ted States. a..
The foreign office said that Sir
Robert referred to the possibility
that other than military objec.
tives might be hit by japanese
bombs dropped on the Chinese
capital and that the lives of Brit
ish citizens might be endangered
The representations were be-
lieved about the same as those
made Monday in Washington by
Secretary of State Cordell Hull IN
his talk with the japanese ambas-
sador.
Britain reserved the right to
hold the Japanese government re-
sponsible for any damage to Brit
ish lives and property.
It was admitted that the repre-
sensations hardly would be ex-
pected to produce any important
results. ,..:..

protest against the shooting OF

WASHINGTON, Sept. %. -
(UP)-President Roosevelt last
night pointed the second New
Deal toward the triple objective
of effecting budget : balancing
economies, ending printing of the
business pump with federal dol
lars and of returning to states
and cities the financial response
bility of caring for their unem,
ployed.
The chief executive partially
disclosed his program at Hyde
Park, M Y, when he ordered a
halt to PWA financing of heavy
construction work, and explained
that step was necessitated by
"the need to curtail the federal
budget" and defended it as
Sound public policy" since the
passing of the economic emer-
gency" had placed many commun-
tiles in an improved financial sta
tus."
Late Monday Mr.. Roosevelt is
sued an executive order abolish
ing the once all-powerful national
emergency council on next De-
cember 81. 1t was formed to CO.
ordinate the activities of emer-
gency bureaus which sprang into
life with startling rapidity and in
great numbers during the hectic
early days of the first New Deal.
One of these emergency agen-
cies-the Rural Resettlement adj
ministration-recently was merg-
ed with the agriculture depart
ment and became known as the
Farm Security administration"
A somewhat brighter financial
picture faced Mr.. Roosevelt as he
carried forward the task of con-
oslidating the New Deal. The
treasury reported that the federal
deficit on September Is had drop
ped to $2S4,076,843 - the low
est point since July 7. Likewise
the public debt fell below the
S37, 900, 100000 level but remain
ed at a peace-time peak.
Tax collections for the first IL
DAYS of the month increased
Sl6O,O00,000 over the same peri
cd last year. The other side of
the picture, however. disclosed
Mr.. Roosevelt's concern over
needed federal economies. The
treasury figures showed, in the
face of business revival, that the
government on September Is had
spent S2S4,076,S43.99 more than
it received in revenues from all

EUROPEANS, CHINESE
SHEER AT AMERICANS
By I. J. EPSTEIN

Copyright, 1897, United Press)
NANKING, Via Shanghai, Sept.
22.-(UP)-Anti American sem
timent because of the evacuation
of the United States embassy
from this bomb-threatened capital
was increasing today and the
handful of United States citizens
remaining here were subjected to
a series Of near-insults.
AS hours passed following expi-
ration of the Japanese zero hour
for beginning the destruction"
of the city by an aerial lombard
ment, the Chinese population was
increasingly nervous and the fear
complex exhibited itself in UNI
precedented criticism Of the Unit
ed States government and Ameri-
cans generally.
The European community here,
as wei las the Chinese, was nerv-
Gus and joined in the sneering
attitude towards Americans.
A typical statement was made
by Mrs. Paul Tyinem, a mission
ary.educator, who gave up Amer
lean citizenship early this year to
become q Chinese.
81 yearn for America to recon-
slider her policy" Mrs. Tyinem
said. 81 beg her to take a positive
stand for the right and not to
fear Japan -. The deplorable
acouiescence Of United States
embassy officials, who have run
away to q warship in response to
virtual demands from Japan, is a
last straw causing complete loss
of respect on the part OF innum,
cradle Chinese including myself.
Chinese officials also continued
their denunciation Of the United
States, although none would per-
nit himself to be quoted by
name. :.
Indicative Of the tension, it
was announced yesterday that ~
"Chinese traitors" had been exc
cuted and that 3,400 nationalist
students from Peiping and Iient-
sin had passed through the city
demanding an immediate declaracc
tion of war, the determination OF
traitors, and the conscription Oh
youth. =, G an,
bassy and Americans generally
ignored the anti-American feeilng
and believed that the friendly
feeling of Chinese towards them
would be restored when the pres
ent tension passes.
Most of the embassy personnel
including Ambassador Nelson I.
Johnson, remained aboard the
punboats Luzon and Guam Of the
United States Yangtse river pa.
troll. These ships still were moored
to their buoys off the Marking
waterfront last night, despite the
warning Of the japanese that for.
eign ships should withdraw IL
miles from Marking.
An embassy spokesman told
the United Press that 1--WE neither
intend to subject ourselves to
bombing nor to leave Marking as
long as Americans remain here."o
