MAY RESIGN
Should that happen, this official
said, the council would consider
it's position untenable and resign
in a body.
Editors Note: Advices from
London said the British govern
ment communicated with the
American government with a view
toward mutual rejection of the
new Japanese demands in Shang-
hal. The British proposed, instead,
to tighten up police regulations in
the settlement to prevent recur-
renee of anti-Japanese outbreaks.
CThe London reports said Brit.
ish military information seemed
to indicate the Japanese armies
in China intend to take control
of as much territory as possible
before British rearmament is COM
plete or before it is possible to
obtain a general European po-
litical settlement, which would al

VIRTUAL ULTIMATUM
Authoritative sources in Shang'
hal said the Japanese de
mands regarding the settlement
amounted to a virtual ultimatum
to foreign nations. with a warning
that Nippon's army might be com
PEELED to take steps unless the
proposals are accepted.
Coincident with the Japanese
effort to win control of the for
eign section here, there arose re-
ports that similar attempts to
enforce japanese authority in the
British and French concessions at
TientSin, in North China, will
soon be made.
Some circles here regarded the
developments in the Shanghai In
ternational Settlement and the
predicted program at Tientsip as
part of a studied Japanese manev-
yer to reduce foreign influence
in all major Chinese cities.

By KINGsBURY SMITH

LONDON, Jan. S GN.S0 .-Indi-
cations that the British admiralty
Is rapidly formulating concrete
plans to concentrate units Of its
various fleets at Singapore, within
striking distance of the Sino-Japa-
nese trouble zone, increased today.
Meanwhile, dispatches from Port
Said disclosed the British COM
mand had decided upon construc-
ton of a huge military airport at
Geneffa, in the vicinity of the
Suez Canal, with the Egyptian
government contributing toward
betrayal of the costs under terms
of the Anglo Egyptian treaty. Also
contemplated is enlargement of
the civil airport at Port Said to
serve as an emergency base for
military purposes.
Reports from Singapore led to
belief the government is ar
ranging to use its huge naval
base there as the chief point of
operations for an increased Pa
cific fleet which will be dispatched
to the Orient if the Japanese
campaign in China brings further
threats against British interests.
RAISE PACIFIC FLEET
Preliminary plans for such a
move, which would send a large
number of British war vessels
from the Mediterranean and other
points to the Far East should the
necessity arise, were first revealed
by international News Service last
December 20.
At that time, it was indicated
London and Paris had reached an
understanding whereby Fran e
would look after British Mediter-
ranean interests if Britain sent
large numbers of vessels to the
Orient.
Advices from Singapore today
said the ceremonial opening of a
giant dry dock there, for use i
repairing large warships an d
other vessels, has been fixed for
February II.
WAR GAMES SLATED
This event, the reports said,
will witness the largest concentra-
ton of British warShips at Singa-
pore in recent years, including
seven units from the East Indies
squadron, three units from the
Indian navy and several units
from the British China squadron.
In addition, the aircraft carrier
Eagle, nine submarines, numer-
Gus destroyers and warships rep
resenting the Australian and New
Zealand navies will be on hand.
Other reports from Singapore,
which revealed for the first time
that the naval and military base
there is equipped with 18-inch
guns, gave details of the defense
maneuvers to be held there next
month.
Ten thousand troops, including
endorsements from India and
Hongkong, will participate in these
war games, as well as a number
of air bombing squadrons, includ-
ing three from India, and the air.
craft carrier Eagle.

ranch life and frequently helped
with the chores or the annual round
up Of cattle.
Since then, SO popular have guest
