hand account of events in Austria. He
conferred three times with Eugenia
Cardinal Pacelli, papal secretary Of
state.
Statement In German.
An official translation OF the state
ment, which was in German, follows
The solemn declaration Of March
IL by the Austrian episcopate obvi-
ously did not mean approval OF that
which was not and is not compatible
with the laws Of God and the liberty
Of the Catholic Church.
This declaration must not be in
terpreted by the state and the party
as an obligation of conscience, nor
must 1t be used for propaganda.
Demands Are Listed.
For the future, the Austrian
bishops demand:
THAT in all questions CONTEMPLATED
in the Austrian concordat no modifi-
cation shall be made without previous
agreement with the Holy See;
That. in particular in the appli-
cation Of all rules regarding both
schools and education as we'll as youth
leadership, the natural rights of par
ents and the religious and moral
training Of Catholic youths according
to the fundamental principles of the
Catholic faith shall be assured;
THAT propaganda against religion
and the church shall be prevented;
That Catholics shall have the right
to develop and defend the Catholic
Church and the fundamental princi-
pies of Christianity in every field of
human life with every means at the
disposal Of contemporary civilization"
Speaks for All Bishops.
The newspaper preceded the declara-
ton with the following statement:
I'VE report herewith the German
text of a declaration which His Emil
nence Cardinal Innitzer, Archbishop
OF Vienna, also in the name of the
entire Austrian episcopate, believed it
necessary to publish to eliminate mis-
created in public opin-
ion as a result of recent events"
Cardinal Innitzer left Rome this
afternoon for Vienna.
Refers to March FL Declaration.
The declaration to which Cardinal
referred was that read in all
Austrian Catholic churches March q,
signed by himself and five Austrian
bishops. 1t apparently had been drawn
up March 18. In it the prelates said
it was their duty "to declare our 10y
atty as Germans to the German
Reich (nation)" in the April 10 pleb-
iscite on Austrian union with Ger

Tobacco Firm Files Notice
of Intention to Quit
Business There.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
SHANGHAI, April 6-Business
reports emphasized today the cumu-
lative repercussions Of the undeclared
war upon Chinese trade as Japanese
continued their push in Shantung
Province toward the Lunghai Rail-
way.
Foreign firms trade has slumped
sharply. Japanese business in oc-
cupied areas is reported to be less
than normal.
The Timmonsville Leaf Tobacco Co.
Of Richmond. Va, became the first
company to file notice of suspension Of
business in China with the registrar Of
the China Trade Act. A United States
Federal statute concerning American
firms operating in China.
Tobacco Business Hit.
Business of most American tobacco
companies is described as seriously
impaired by destruction of factories,
warehouses and stocks, inability to
trade with the interior, and limiting
by the central Chinese government
of the amount of foreign exchange
made available to Shanghai.
The oil business also has dwindled
and is faced, besides, with a pos
sible japanese government oil mo-
nopoly such as took over the busi-
ness in Manchukuo.
A decline in kerosene consumption
throughout the interior was attributed
to the poverty-stricken condition Of
farmers, many of whose homes and
crops have been destroyed.
Chinese Launch Assault.
On the war front itself, Gen. Lit
sung jen reported from Suchow that
sides to wipe out a Japanese force that
stormed the south gate of Taierchwang

long battle as Japanese sought to push
south through Shantung Province
along the Tentsin-Pukow Railway to
Suchow. junction point of the east
west Lunahgi line.
Meager Japanese Army reports said
the severest fighting was raging around
Chinese pillboxes south Of Taierch-
wang.
Fierce Fighting at Chefoo.

North Shantung province seaport,
where an insurrection of Chinese
broke out yesterday.
Reinforcements of japanese marines
landed from warship. Planes were
brought into play.
Another outbreak occurred between
Chefoo and Weihaiwei, near the east
ern tip Of the Shantung peninsula,
where Chinese mobile units caused
heavy casualties.
Withdrawal Of Japanese divisions
from the railway zone between Tsinan,
Shantung provincial capital, and
Tsingtao, chief Shantung port, to re-
tnforce troops fighting at Taierch-
wang, was believed to have encouraged
guerrilla eruptions.

ment-oNned China Merchants Steam

ENGINEERS HAVE

NEW YORK, March Is. = The
question is when did engineers
learn to talk"
The Engineers Club of New
York City is noted for converse
tional powers of its members.
They are the tops of engineering
from all over the world.
But when II was proposed to
start this club. Just 50 years ago.
this objection was made:
You can't have an engineers
club because engineers don't like
to talk to each other"
The objector is believed TO
have referred TO a tendency of
engineers not to talk about SOC
ial and economic welfare. That is
what engineers lately have been
preaching as the coming topic of
greatest importance for their pro-
fession. SEQ
1t appears that some time in
the last few years, engineers have
learned to talk" about the social
consequences of their work. They
are the big appliers of scientific
discovery.
They have decided 10 look to
the social effects of their material
works. Byron Eldred, president OF
the club. puts it this way:
The pen is mightier than the
sword, and now in the last 50
years the slide rule has become
rnightier than the pen"
Eldred has learned 20 talk"

When the Bronx Zoo opened its
