Buda Coffee Houses

called the town of cafes or coffee
houses in the Hungarian language,
and the 400th anniversary Of the
Buda coffee houses is now in celebra-
ton. The coffee houses play = Pc
culiar part in the life of the Buda-
pest citizen. They are the meeting
place for politicians, artists, authors,
commercial travellers and merchants,
and they set the standard OF life for
the small bourgeoisie.
In this class the love of the coffee
houses Is 50 deeply rooted that 4

house every day. When hard times
prevent him from drinking his cup Of

Kindness Is Taught
Through Ambulance

Appearance of a new ambulance on
the streets of Shanghai, China, has
called public attention to the progress
made by the Society for the Preven-
tion of Cruelty to Animals. The am
bulance is for sick animals and was
presented to the society by a soap
company
There is no law against cruelty to
animals in China and the society has
achieved its goal by good will and
persuasion. Railway companies have
been induced to erect II water
troughs for cattle. Other measures
to protect animals in transit or while
being driven in herds have been
adopted by municipal authorities.
Hundreds of rush baskets were dis
tributed at markets to persons accus-
toned to carrying live fowl upside

CHINA CRISIS EXPLAINED
BY SUMMARY OF EVENTS
Japanese Invasion Is Another Step in
the Sky Year-Old Process of
Penetration of Asia.

autonomous state on the order of
Manchukuo That development may
now have to wait on the outcome Of
the struggle at Shanghai.
Hirota Listed ; Points.
In an address before the japanese
Diet on January 81. 1896. Foreign
Minister Hirota said his governments
policy toward China rested mainly on
the following three points:
% Cessation by China of all
unfriendly acts and measures, and
her effective collaboration with
Japan.
~ Recognition of Manchukuo
by China, and harmonization OF
the interests of the two countries.
t3) Suppression Of Communist
activities and liberation Of China
from the Red menace"
Hirota declared these points were
nothing but the most obvious and
elemental concepts that must underlie
the great undertaking of insuring the
stability of East Asia 1t is in connec-
ton with the third point that the
position of North China assumes spe-
cial significance
Japan's desire TO exert control over
that area is believed to be motivated
not only by economic, but also by
strategic considerations. The province
OF Chahar stretches to the borders OF
Outer Mongolia, which is under Soviet
domination. If Japan were thoroughly
established in Chahar and also in
Suiyuan, which likewise borders Outer
Mongolia. she would be in position
to isolate the latter region from China
proper and to discourage a possible
Chino-Soviet alliance directed against
herself. And in event of the long
feared Russo-Japanese war, Japan
would probably be able to advance
quickly into Outer Mongolia and
launch air raids into Siberia that
might seriously restrict the offensive
power of Russias Far Eastern Army.
Red Elements Vociferous.
Communist elements in China have
been among the most vociferous in de-
manding vigorous national action to
expel the japanese. Markings fail
ure to pursue more positive policy in
that regard was supposedly one of the
chief reasons for the kidnapping of
Chang Kai-shek at Sian last Decem-
Der by Marshal Chang Hsueh-liang.
son of the former war lord of
Manchuria. And Chang was suspected
OF completely with the Communist
leaders. The Communists and other
elements opposed to the Marking gov
ernment have continued to urge strong
action against Japan, but the student
demonstrations, so active a year ago.
are said to have quieted under recent
demonstrations of the efficiency OF
Japans war machine.
The attitude of the central govern
ment, on the contrary, has stiffened.
On July 19 Chang Kai-shek declared:
Although a weak country, If un-
fortunately We have reached the last
limit. then there is only one thing to
do. that is to throw the last ounce of
energy Of our nation into the struggle
for national existence" While no ef-
fectlve resistance could be offered at
Peiping, there has been a different
story to tell at Shanghai While it
may end in enforced submission to
erection of new state in North China.
the events now taking place may stir
national sentiment suficiertlv to
enable Marking to put up a long and
determined struggle against such an
outcome.

All Stars have them nodded to

He is big enough to play at Pitt,
and they tell me that he's good
enough to play at Pitt. Teamed
with him would be Bill Morris, of
Bulls, who weighs 215 pounds.
Fenwick is 6 feet tall and Morris

Ray Knott, of AnacoStia, weighs

FOUR BIG ENDS
-Four big ends are essential to
the success Of any team, and the
All-Stars have the boys needed.
They're big enough to handle a
hulking tackle on the attack;
they're strong enough to fight off
interference on the defense, and
they're tall enough to leap into
the air over the reach of Sec
ondaries, to grab forward passes.
Jack Crawford, of Dewitt Prep,
is 6 feet tall and weighs 172
pounds. He's fast and strong.
Sam Fox, of Central, is 6 feet
1ncheS tall ana weighs 100
pounds. He's a tidy package for

Kearney, of Eastern, is another
fine young athlete. He is 6 feet /

portions for the coming interhigh
series has been a success or not.
There's not q man from the

Ray would have had Ralph Matera,

ferred to Eastern last September
and will, no doubt, play regularly

Ray, in the past few weeks, has
nodded two combinations to take
the floor. He believes it most
necessary this season because Of
