Now the only casualties publish

unusual personal heroism. !,
AS an example of the delay in

TOKYO, June rs. (UP)-Japan is
guarding information about casu-
alties suffered by her armed
forces in China with the same Sc
crecy that surrounds her naval
building program.
No regular casualty lists are
published and the people general
ly are left without information
except in scattered cases.
Official figures, as revealed 10

ed which military attaches believe
to be far below the real figures.
So far as the Japanese public Is
concerned the figure up to June
Is was given as around 10000 to-
tai casualties.
The public, however, is aware
that the figures are far larger than
officials indicate. There is consid-
cradle srurnbling because the gov
eminent refuses to follow the
practice in other countries OF CIV

German circles charge men,

the campaign yesterday with a

PLAN Is SEEN AS
DRASTIC REPRNAL

LONDON, June 2b.-(UP)-
Loyalist Spain has threatened
drastic reprisals unless the nation
alists stop bombing open cities and
has limited that the reprisals may
extend to points outside continent
tai Spain, 1t was said today in
usually reliable quarters.
The warning was conveyed by
Pablo De Azcarste, Spanish loyal
list ambassador, to Viseount Hall
fax, foreign secretary, last night.
Azcarate visited Halifax at the.
foreign office Unexpectedly. Ac-
cording to responsible informapts
he conveyed Q warning in grave
terms that II the airplanes operat-
ing in behalf Of the nationalists
did not stop bombing open cities
that is, cities which are not pri-
marily Of military Importance
the Republican government would
order Immediate and severe re-
prisals.
Informants said that Azcarate
limited guardedly that the loyal
lists in executing any reprisals
might not confne themselves to
such nationalist cities as Burgos
and Salamanca but extend the re-
prisal zone to include points from
which the raiding planes were be-
lieved to come.
The IoysIists have made no Sc
cret Of their belief that Italian
airplanes have taken Q leading
part in the bombing Of Mediter-
ranean cities and that the planes
come from the Balearic Islands.
The. BslearicA in turn, lie between
Spain and Sardinia, where Italy
has q great airplane base. The
loyalistS have frequently bombed
military detectives in the Balear-
les Islands. Hence, the question
was left open whether Azcarate
meant to invite, the inference that
any reprisal raids might be ex-
tended not only beyond continent
tai Spain but beyond the Bslear.
les, The Balearic Islands lie ITO
miles of the eastern coast OF
Spain. Sardinia is 500 miles away
from the coast.
It was understood that in his
talk with Lord Halifax, Acarate
requested action on the British
proposal that an international
commission be sent to investigate
bombings Of open loyalist towns:
Halifax was said to have replied
that the government was trying
to speed negotiations Tor such .
commission.

BRITONS SEE NEW JAPANESE
INFRINGEMENT IN DECREE OF
JAPANESE LAW I'm WAR ZONE
Viewed as Breaking Rights
of Treaty Powers
in China

SHANGHAI, June 25. (UP).-
Foreign consular officials today
forwarded their home govern
ments Japanese declaration
which was interpreted by Great
Britain's representatives here as
an infringement of the rights OF
treaty power. nationals in China.
The declaration asserts that
all foreigners in the Japanese-oc-
cupied, areas of China, are sub
ject, during the period of military
activities, to basic requirements
of Japanese law.
The British at first interpreted
it to mean that the Japanese were
announcing at least temporary
cancellation of eXtra-territorial-
ity, which long has been in effect
in China and which provides that
nationals of the treaty powers, in
Guiding Americans, are subject to
their own laws and to trial in
thei rown courts.
The japanese denied this was
the case, and said foreigners de-
tanned in Japanese military areas
for Infringement of army regula-
lions will be turned over to their
own consular representatives.
They explained that Japanese
soldiers are familiar only with
Japanese laws and that the basic
principles of these laws will be
enforced in military areas, where
the Japanese armed forces re-
serve the right to question and

many and Russia renowned ex-
tra-territoriality after the World
war; detention will be only tenn
porary until the offending person
can be turned over to his own
consular officers.
Foreign consular officers agreed
that the policy is not violation
of extra-territoriality and is in
line with common wartime prac-
tice. In fact it has been enforced
by the japanese ever since the
present conflict started.

ONE RUMOR IS SHE

LONDON, June 25. (UP)-
Countess Barbara Haugwitz-Re-

to have slipped away quietly from
her Regents Park home here, and
perhaps taken with her two-year-
old son, Lance, to protect him
from any abduction attempt.
One rumor said that the coun-

board the Bremen for the United
States. At Southampton, however,
it was said that she had not ar

said she had made no reservations.

IN PEACE EFFORT
(UNITED PREss)

The Spanish loyalist govern
ment today thrust an explosive
new obstacle in the path Of Euro
pean peace by threatening aerial
attacks on the bases Of rebel
planes bombarding the undefend-
ed cities. -
The Importance Of the threat
lay in the fact that loyalists have
blamed Italian and German planes
and volunteers for steady bonn
bardment Of government cities
and that the main rebel air base
is in the Balearic islands.
The decision to strike back was
conveyed to the French and Brit
ish governments without explana-
ton as to why It was reached at
this time.
It was apparent, however, that
one effect of such action would be
to make much more difficult, If
not impossible, efforts Of Great
Britain to bring pressure for q

Stocks again advanced to new

The push into new highs came

WASHINGTON, June 25. (UP)
Administration agencies last night
mustered their strength behind
President Roosevelt's spend-lend
drive for a business pickup by
early fall to stem the growing
wave of unemployment.
Leading the depression assault
was the Public Works Administra-
ton which allocated $82,000,O00
in loans and grants on 600 nom
federal projects during the day.
1T brought to a close the first
phase of the program after three
days of unprecedented activities
in which allotments were made
for 1,755 projects whose ultimate
construction costs will run more
than $440,000,00O.
Completion of the first non-fed-
eral list opened the way for the
PWA to begin work today in dish
ing out funds for the $150,000,-
900 strictly federal program en-
bracing more than 200 undertake
ings.
PWA officials were confident
that "dirt will be flying" on the
non-federal projects within a few
months.
The burst of activity comes only
seven days before the end of the
current fiscal year in which the
net treasury deficit promises to
exceed January estimates by
$25O,OOO,OOO. Receipts probably
will be about $1S0,000,000 less
than forecasts of six months ago.
The treasury statement reveal
ed. however, that the net deficit
this year is $1,317,914,000, far
below the $2,6S0,651, 900 figure
last year. Expenses were $7,522,-
