 ness to send more troops from Japan, it was said. The United Press bureau at Tientsin reported, how eyer, that large Japanese reinforce ments were landing there, presum- ably to bolster weakened lines in southern Shantung, where the Chi nese again were on the offensive.
 Japanese Lost Much
 In addition to suffering huge loss es in the Shantung fighting, the Japanese virtually had lost Shansi province and parts of northern Ho- nan province. Foreign observers pointed out that during the last two months the JapaLese have lost around 1000 square miles of terri tory and that their efforts to smash the Chinese southern Shantung front and had been repulsed repeat edly. In addition, the Chinese guer- rilla fighting organiza tion, operating with unparalleled coordination, had weakened the Japanese rear lines to such an extent that a sustained Japanese frontal drive was impos- sible without heavy endorsements.
 The fighting in southern Shan tung was stalemated temporarily but Chinese guerilla forces, aided by regular army units, took the of- fensive in the Peiping area and claimed substantial gains. They said that many villages within 15 miles of Peiping had been reoccIpied in- cluding Liangsian, from where Japa- nese-controled provisional authori- ties fled
 The United Press Peiping bureau said large numbers of wounded Japanese soldiers were arriving from fighting sectors along the Peiping- HankoW railroad, which cuts down through China close to the Shansi border.
 Every Japanese position along the line was menaced foreign intelli- gence officers reported. The Japa- nese, compelled by the Shantun2 fighting to withdraw troops to that area, left only small garrisons to guard strategic points

Thousands or People Cheered For Hitler
Continued from Page D

Hitler arrived at Rome yesterday. Despite the cheers and the pag- eantry. dispatches from Rome said. there were big empty spaces be- hind the front lines where the cheering took place and newspaper men who saw Elsier drive to the Quirinal palace with King Victor Emmanuel said that the crowd was apathetic compared to what Rome crowds are during a purely Italian show" The shouting and flag way ing did not begin until the royal procession was actually in sight, and the crowd dispersed quickly after it passed.
 In addition, observers were struck with what they called a surprising absence of German NaZi emblems at certain significant spots in Rome. There were hundreds of thousands of Nazi swastikas. but none on the

 According to program, Hitler was to have returned to the palace at noon to have lunch with King Vic tor Emmanuel. Instead, he and Mussolini vent to the Venice palace to intersperSe talk.
 They had no time for talk on Hitler's arrival last night, or during their tour of monuments and tombs this morning, with guards of honor in attendance at each stop.
 Hence this is the first talk If th' fascist and Nazi leaders since Musso- lini's visit to Germany last Sep tember.
 Things Were Absorbed
 Since then Germany had absorbed Austria and shown an acute pro tective" interest in the German mi nor in Czechoslovakia. Italy had concluded friendship treaty with Great Britain and was negotiating one with France.
 These were the principal subjects for talk today and it seemed cer- tain that what was said at the Venice palace conference would in dicate the entire future trend of the "axic."
 Hitler had been given a Roman triumph on his arrival-though it seemed evident that the cheers were for Mussolini and for King Victor Emmanuel, who appeared with Hit Ter. Hitler had slept last night in the King Humbert suite of the kings Quihinal palace.
 SiXDay Program
 Today began the six-day program of official engagements which gave Hitler hardly time to pause from early morning until midnight. There will be many chances for chats be- tweer Hitler and Mussolini, but to- days programmed conference start ing at the Venice palace at ? D. m. e am. edU was the only formal talk scheduled during the entire visit.
 Isolated for two hours from the pomp and circumstance of an off, cial tour, the Nazi and fascist lead CTS engaged in what fasciStS forecast would be an 'unburdening of hearts" regarding Germany's absorption of Austria and future plans for central European expansion and Italy's new treaties.
 Fascists said they believed that the future of the "Rome-Berlin axis" depended on this talk.
 Pope DeplOres Flag
 Casted Grandofo, May 4-(UP)- The pope, in an address to 500 new ly-married couples today, deplored the appearance of the sWaStika flag in Rome during the visit Of Fuehrer Adolf Hitler
 The pope. recalling that yesterday was the feast day of the Holy Cross. said the neWlyWeds deserved the papal benediction because such sad things are happening, sad things, very sad, both near to us and far away"
 Certainly among these sad things" ," he continued, lis that on the feast day of the Holy Cross of Christ, the banners of another cross which cer- tainly is not that of Christ should have been hoisted in Rome.
 "This was out of place and time We tell you this SO that you may understand how necessary it is to pray. pray and pray for the mercy of the Almighty in all it's large ness"
 The pope's remarks emphasized the coolness between him and Hit Ter. eliminated by the pontiif's withdrawal to Castle Gandolfo dur ing Filters visit to Rome and his displeasure because Hitler did not request an audience, despite the urgings of Premier Benito Musso- lini

 Steele, a 1929 Harvard graduate, said his fiancee was wearing an en- gagement ring presented some months after she became attached to the Shaw House staff in 1881.
 Because of family opposition, his fiancee, Boston university grad uate, left the house and studied abroad for several years, later going to Providence.
 Steele said he knew that his res ignation had caused rift in the ranks of the negro as well as the white trustees.
 q know the board has received several letters protesting against their acceptance of my resignation, he said He added that he had made no plans as to my future work"
 After our marriage we probably will go abroad for the summer" he said.
 Among Steele's supporters were the Rev. George L. Paine of Cambridge and Miss Florence Lus- combe, Brookline clubwoman.
 "The vote of the trustees was ob- viously due to opposition to his ap- preaching marriage to white wo- man." Ais Luscombe said. Tt is regrettable that such action expect ed in the south, should happen in Boston.
 Rev. Paine said he defended Steele at the board meeting because I thought he should be allowed to continue his valuable work
 T feel he and his fiancee are meeting all moral and legal obliga- tions in their plans to marry"

PEOPLES FORUM
STEALING FROM THE poor

Editor, The Citizen:
Recently in one of our churches
the clasps of the paddock on the
Poor Box were filed and the con-
tents stolen. Let all be on the
watch for such a mean thief, who
goes to church, not to worship,
but to break one of the Ten Com
mandmentS, and thus steals food
from the mouths of the hungry.
Such a person would steal the
coins placed on the eyelids of a
corpse to keep them closed or
grab the copper cents from the
tin cup of a blind man begging
on the street.
