Italy Warned
Pact Still Holds

ROME, Dec. q QN.SO.-The
diplomatic impasse between Rome
and Paris reached new depths to-
day after French Ambassador
Andre Francois.Poncet delivered
a note to Foreign Minister Count
Galeazzo Ciano taking issue with
1taly's claim that the Rome-Paris
agreement Of 1895 is no longer
valid.
1t was understood the note con-
tended that conditions in the
Mediterranean have not changed
sufficiently to alter or wipe out
the pact concluded three years
ago.
France is willing to enter into
further discussion regarding Medi.
terranean problems, the note in
dicated. but made 1t clear that
such negotiations should take
place between Rome and Paris
alone. without any interference or
mediation by Germany or any
other nation.
In addition, the French govern.
ment sought automatically to
close the door to any new con,
eessions to Italy regarding French
Colonial territory.

SELF SUPPORT
AIM OF JAPAN

TOKYO. Dec. 27 QN.S0.-An
elaborate three.year plan to make
Japan economically independent
of outside help in the event Of
any national emergency was taken
under consideration today by the
cabinet.
The scheme drawn up by ma
tional planning board on instruc-
tions from Premier Prince
Fumimaro Konoye resembles the
Italian and German autarchy
projects. Under it Japan would
achieve national self.sufficiency
through large-scale industrial eX-
panSion.
Close economic cooperation
would be maintained between
Japan, China and Manchukuo so
that, in the event of an emergency
such as war, Japan could dispense
with the importation Of basic COM
modities from foreign countries.

Denies Peace Plea

GN.S0. Stout denial that

today at the Chinese embassy.
The embassy made public tele
gram, dated Chunking, December
27, which said:
"Generalissimo Chang Kai-
Shek described the statement of
the Japanese Premier Konoye
on December % as a stark ex-
pose of the Japanese intrigueS
aimed at political dismember-
ment of China.
The Generalissimo emphati-
cally declared that the latest
official utterances from Japan
only gave the Chinese people
deeper understanding of the
Japanese designs and further
solidified their determination to
fight to a finish without sur.
render or compromise.

The Senator came in to discuss
with Mr.. Roosevelt the recent re-
port Of the Presidents manage
ment-labor committee which draft
ed q series Of legislative proposals,
but had little to say about the
committee recommendations ex-
cept that they might make basis
to work from. He added that he
is opposed to the committee pro-
posal for repeal Of the long and
short haul clause of the interstate
commerce act.
WILL WORK ON BILL
Wheeler said his committee
would get to work on railroad leg.
islation Immediately and would
bring out a bill as soon as possible
after Congress opens.
Wheeler confessed that he was
puzzled about some phases Of the
management-labor committee re-
port and carefully pointed out
that the committee recommends
tions were of a preliminary type
and were to be used as a working
basis and only as a working basis.
AVOIDS COMMITMENTS
The Montana Senator said that
he and the President simply dis
cNSsed the report generally and
that neither of them attempted
to reach any conclusion.
He pointed out also that he did
not commit himself to anything
while talking to the President and
that he did not want to discuss
the management-labor report ex-
lcept to oppose the recommends
tion for the repeal Of the long
and short haul clause Of the inter.
state commerce act.

BLUM'S PARTY
ASKS DEFENSE
PACT With U. S,
New Alliance Sought
Against DiCtators
BY KENNETH T. DOWNS

PARIS, Dec. 81 0.N.SJ. -
resolution calling upon the Unitec
States to join France, Grea
Britain and the Soviet Union Il
defend democracy against thu
"menace" Of Germany, Italy anc
Japan was adopted today by the
special congress Of the French SO
ciali-t Party.
The resolution, proposed by
former Premier Leon Blum, So
cialist Party leader. advocated the
strongest measures against Nazis
and Fascists.
SCORES MUNICH PACT
1t condemned the Munich pact
and the role in its played y
Premier Daladier.
Adopted by a vote of 1922 10
1887, the resolution stated:
Active sympathy, such as
that Of America, is precious and
necessary but is not sufficient.
Frances security necessarily i'm
plies the existence of a mutual
defense accord to be concluded
with the Pacific states"
The vote followed a heated de-
bate through the night between
militant faction led by Blum and
a conservative group led by Paul
Faure, secretary general Of the
Socialist party. There were LOLA
abstentions from the vote while a
program for peace at any price
won 60 votes. The 1887 votes
favored the Munich peace accord.
SPLIT FORESEEN
The abstentions and divided vote
indicated what may prove a ser
ious split in the Socialist party,
which holds 149 seats in the
Chamber of Deputies as against
the 113 held by Daladier's radical
socialist moderate liberaD group.
Adoption Of the resolution
placed the Socialist party offici-
ally on record as opposing Dala-
dier's foreign policies and the
Munich accord. There were ru-
mors that Faure and his followers
might bolt, forming a new politi-
cal group Of their own.
Meanwhile, ignoring italian
charges that he intended war
like demonstration" Daladier pre-
pared for his trip next week to
Corsica and Tunisia, where he
will review military parades de-
signed to warn Italy against any
annexationist moves.
In addition, Daladier revealed
that his plans also call for an in.
spection Of the Algerian defenses
