commission had lengthily prepared
way for negotiations designed to
induce the Reich to permit refu-
gees to take sufficient capital and
property to make them acceptable
immigrants in other countries.
Prime Minister Neville Cham
berlain yesterday lodged demands
in the house of commons for joint
Anglo-United States action on be-
half of Germany's terrorized Jews
after Britain protested to Chan
cellor Adolf Hitler against Nazi
press attacks linking British states
men to the anti-Semitic drive.
The British protest, and state
ment by Chamberlain in commons
snubbing Hitler's colonial de-
mands, appeared to have shattered
all immediate prospects of Brit
ish-German pact Of friendship and
European appeasement.
:. London newspapers clamored for
joint action by the United States
and. Great Britain to relieve the
sufferings of German. Jews. Or

try added their voice to the de-
mands.

week ago.
The British aristocracy, the
church, conservatives and opposi-
tion party leaders, miners in Dur
ham and men in the streets swelled
the public indignation.
It was reported that the cabinet
soon might convey the govern
ment's "abhorrence" Of the anti
Jewish measures in the Reich--a
move that might doom Chamber
lain's hope of bringing Hitler into
a program Of lasting peace. {,
The Daily Express said that the
United States and perhaps other
nations might join in the protest.
Chamberlain lodged a question
by Albert v. Alexander, Laborite
in commons, as to whether he
would consult Immediately with
President Roosevelt a protest to
Berlin against the "iniquities' IN
Germany.
He likewise evaded a request by
Laborite Col. J. C. Wedgwood that
the government Immediately show
its feelings by doing something
for the German Jews.

LONDON, Nov. 15.-CUP)-
British leaders were cheered to-
day by indications of closer Unit
ed States cooperation in foreign
affairs, with particular reference
to Germany.
They welcomed the news that
U. S. Ambassador Hugh Wilson
had been ordered home by Wash
ington for a consultation on Ger
man-American relations and an
unconfrmed Washington report
that President Roosevelt planned
a statement condemning Nazl
treatment of Jews.
Such diplomatic activity by the
United States, coinciding almost
exactly with signing of the Brit

it's important political implica-

WOULD INCREAS
AIR CORPS OBJECTIVE.
BY ALLEN c. DIBBLE
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Nov. Is. (UP(
President Roosevelt moved yester-
day to put new pressure behind
his multi-billion dollar national de-
fense program after General Ma
lin Craig, army chief Of staff, had
warned in his annual report that
the nations armed forces are in
adequate.
The chief executive met with
military and fiscal experts for two
hours only a short time after Gen.
Craig had informed Secretary of
War Harry H. Woodring that the
army is not equipped to meet
"even minor emergencies"
The entire program was said to
have been surveyed including Mr..
Roosevelt's plans for nationally
integrated power system which
would be indispensable in time of
war, bigger and better army and
navy, the worlds festest and most
powerful airforce, and vast re-
serve armies and supply depots.
The President, while urging his
"good neighbor" policy and seek
ing international economic read
justment, has announced that the
nations foreign policy must be
backed by an adequate defense.
Conferrihg with him were WPA
Administrator Harry Hopkins, So
licitor General Robert H. Jackson,
Gen. Craig. Gen. George Marshall,
deputy chief Of staff; Gen. H. A.
Arnold, new chief of the Army
Air Corps; Secretary of the Treas
ury Henry Morgenthau, Jr., and
/ Treasury General Counsel Her
man Oliphant.
The presence of Hopkins and
Morgenthau lent credence to re-
ports that Mr.. Roosevelt hopes to
speed ris program by diverting re-
lief funds to production of defer-
sive materials, including arma-
,aents. His concern also was re-
Elected in the following develop
ments:
1. He estimated that there
would be at least a S200.000,000
increase in the navy budget for
the next fiscal year. while Assist
ant Secretary of Navy Charles
Edison asserted that national Sc
curity demands a fleet second to
none.
2. Craig urged a 5000 increase
in the regular army to boost the
total to 10000 and cautioned
that eve have failed to keep pace
with the development in defensive
weapons that has occurred since
the World war"
3. While it was reported that
Mr.. Roosevelt would seek an air
force of "at least 1000 planes"
the chief executive disclosed plans
for a government training pro-
gram for aviation mechanics. The
Army Air Corps has set 1920
! first-line planes as it's goal, to be
accomplished in 1889, but the ad-
ministration is reported as feeling
the figure should be boosted to
1000. The naval expansion bill
/ passed at the last session of con-
gress provided for a naval air
force of at least 8. 600 planes.

Japanese Again
Rebuff Powers In
Diplomatic Note
Believe Firm Stand or Clos

Impress China
By ROBERT BELI-AIRE
United Press Staff Correspondent

SHANGHAI, Nov. Is. (UP)-
Japan t6day again made clear her
| determination TO carry through her
conquest of China in the face of
diplomatic opposition from France,
Britain and the United States.
As Japanese armies in central
China drove nearer to flaming
Changsha. capital of Human prov
ince and key to the new "Henyang
Triangle, defenses of Chinese
Generalissimo Chang Kai-shek,
the Japanese newspapers here pub
lished prominently Tokyo's rejec-
ton of the three powers request
that the Yangtse river be reopened
to navigation of their merchant
ships.
The timing of the reply and the
manner in which it was published
caused, diplomats to believe that it
was intended partly for Chinese
consumption and designed to con-
vince the Chinese that Japan
would brook no outside interfer-
ence in her China plans.
If the Japanese can demonstrate
their ability to keep the ,Yangtse
closed in the faSeaof demands from
the three great powers, it was az
gued, they will have made an
other long stride in convincing the
bulk of the Chinese people that
any hope of effective help from
outside nations is vain and thus
the position of those Chinese who
favor surrendering to the Japa-
nese will be strengthened.
The summary of the japanese

dispatch, sent by courier from
Marking to Hong Kong, a United
Press correspondent reveals the
extent of japanese commercial
penetration of central China
against which the United States
has protested in two notes, one
alleging violation of the principle
of the "open door" and equal op,
portunity and another demanding
opening of the Yangtse river to
American merchant ships.-Edi,
tors note, United Press associa'
tionS.)
NANKING, Via Hong Kong
Nov. 13. (UP)-Japan is making
steady progress in expanding hel
trade in central China, this cor
respondent learned during tour
of the lower Yangtse valley which
included visits in cities from
Shanghai to Kiukiang, japanese
military base near Hankow.
British trade, formerly domi'
nant in the Yangtse valley, vir.
tually has disappeared because OF
the Japanese refusal 20 let for
eign ships and salesmen enter the
Japanese occupied areas.
American trade, always much
smaller than that of the British
and Japanese, also virtually has
been wiped out.
The correspondent saw Japan
ese goods on sale in all the Yang.
tse river ports he visited and
passed scores of japanese ships
laden with cargo.
New japanese enterprises also
are opening in all the conquered
cities including hotels and shops.
Accompanying the japanese
penetration there has been one OF
the greatest cleanups in the his
tory of China. Venerable old cit
les like Soochow, where cleanli'
ness had been virtually non-eXist-
ent for a thousand years, now are
spic and span under the driving
force of the japanese army and
navy.
The correspondent also was
told by foreign missionaries that
the narcotics traffic is increasing
and that new drugs, such as hero
in, now are appearing and are
distributed by Chinese and Ko'
rean scamp followers" of the
Japanese army.
Public order in all the cities
visited is excellent and the raping
and looting which marred the
Japanese occupation of Nanklng
a year ago last December has dis
appeared.
There have been many com
plants of confiscation of private
property, however, and so far the
japanese authorities appear to be
doing little to suppress this.
Foreigners are not permitted
to enter many of the occupied
areas of Nanking and other cit
les and the general opinion Is
that the Japanese intend to elm
mate foreign influence to con,
siderable degree, particularly that
of the missionaries.
All Japanese agree that the
Yangtse river will remain closed
to international merchant ship
ping for an indefinite period since
the river still is dangerous"
They explain the presence of Jap
anese ships by stating that these
ships are under naval charter and
that the Japanese naval forces as

Manners
of the
Moment

There's been considerable humor
going around lately, including one
excellent cartoon on the subject Of
the hostess hunting for the buzzer
during dinner party. do not pro-
pose to improve on the humor. I
am merely trying to help you work
out solution.
The buzzer, admittedly, is one of
those things on whcih it is hard to
put ones foot. At family meals it
really doesn't matter much. The
hostess can duck her head down
under the tablecloth and take look,
when her foot can't find it. But
when 1t comes to dinner party, q
hostess nearly goes crazy paving the
carpet for the buzzer.
I propose that the hostess appoint
her son, If she has one, or one Of
the more playful members Of her
family, to sit under the table during
the meal, and to punch the buzzer
whenever she waves her foot. That
would free her for conversation. And
the young son would have a mar
velous time. She could even pass
him q drumstick or two during the
meal. 1t would be his idea Of para
disc, I'm sure. And the buzzer prob
lem would be solved.
Otherwise, can't see any other
way out. unless it would be to go
back to the old table bell, or to wait
ing on your guests yourself ). and
both Of those methods are 50 dread
fully old-fashioned, don't you think?

It is because men do not marry
for intellectual companionship that
so many marriages 60 on the rocks.
1t is why there are 50 many unfaith-

is gone.
When q man marries q woman
who Is his intellectual inferior they
are bound to grow apart because he
goes on and she stays put. Their
evenings are necessarily as dull as
dishwater because they have no
interests in common and they sit
up in silence so thick you could
cut it with a knife.
The only happy marriages are
those in which a man has used his
head as well as his fancy in picking
out a wife and who has married a
woman in his own mental class
Such a couple grow closer together
