the blind of the District was recon-
naended yesterday by Miss Stella
Plants, blind director OF the Commit
tee on Service to the Blind of the

Gated and help provided to secure re-
Mobilization assistance. The service
would also study the causes of blind
ness. keep up-to-date information on
the blind problem of the District and
help the blind receive training and
employment.
Miss Plants pointed out that job OPP
portunities for the blind are par
ticularly scarce in the District due to
the fact there is no large industry and
handicapped persons are excluded
from Government work.
OF the 735 blind in the District, only
IS are employed full time on regular
jobs, Miss Plants reported. Eighty
two others are trained and able to work
If jobs could be found for them and
there are 80 more who would be en-
playable if properly tarined.
Only IL persons are earning their
living by street begging. Pensions or
some other form Of relief Is being
given to 234 blind persons and the
remainder either have independent
incomes or are being supported by
relatives.
Among the blind persons now work.

MI. B.ASKSCOURT
TO BAR FORD PLEA
Board Fights Petition That,
Implied improper Tie-up
With c. |. O. Heads.

The National Labor Relations Board
today asked the United States Sixth
Circuit Court Of Appeals at Covington,
KY, to deny the Ford Motor Co.'S Pc
tition for commission to take depo-
sitions of N. L. r. B. members in con-
nection with questions directed at the
board by counsel for the concern.
In its action the company had i'm
piled that the N. L. r. B. had con-
ferred with John l.. Lewis and Homer
Martin, ofi1cials of the Committee for
Industrial Organization, and other i'm
proper persons in formulating the de-
cision and subsequent orders against
the concern.
THAT the company intends to put
questions Of an impertinent, scurrilous
and malicious nature Is shown by the
recently filed interrogatories," the
boards sworn statement said. "The
improper purposes Of the company are
further evident from the fact that a
majority Of the persons sought to be
examined had no connection with the
prosecution or decision of this
case, y"
The boards action, filed by Robert
B. Watts, acting general counsel, de-
clared that the court was without
jurisdiction in the case, since the en-
tire transcript Of the record had not
been certified In view of further pro-
ceedings in the case pending before
the board. Even though such juris-
diction was found. the board con-
tended, the company,s petition should
be denied because it was not made in
good faith, but for the purpose of
conducting "a private and unlimited
fishing expedition into the affairs Of
the board.
Mr.. Watts contended further that
the company itself had failed to meet
an indispensable requirement" in
that the allegations in the petition
were unsworn and were made merely
upon information and belief with no
showing whatsoever as to the sources
il any, of its alleged information or
as to the grounds. If any, Of its alleged

YUNNANFUL|KELY
CAPITAL OF CHINA
Government Leaders Scan
New Refuge if Japan
Takes HankoW.
BY A. T. STEELE,

Chicago Daily News Correspondent.
YUNNANFU, May 31.-With the loss
of Suchow and the growing menace to
Hankow, China's leaders are turning
speculative eyes toward this remote
city of Southwestern China as the
possible future capital of the Chinese
government
If the Japanese push on to Hankow,
the center of the government will have
to be shifted. Perhaps it will go to
Chengtu, capital of Szechuan Prov
ince; Chungking, also in Szechuan. or
Yunnanfu. capital Of Yunnan Prov
ince, or perhaps to all three.
Because it has railway connections
with the outside world which the
others lack. Yunnanfu probably Is the
only one of the three to which Ambas-
sadors and their retinues could be in
duced to come. And this is an i'm
portant consideration, for the Chinese
government knows that world prestige
can last only as long as diplomats con-
tinue to hang around.
ESQ Miles From Tibet.
This old city Of 100, 900 Is perched on
plateau only $50 miles from the
Tibetan frontier. yet it is the terminal
of railway which winds SIS miles
southwark through jungle-covered
mountains to French Ipdo-China and
the sea. Already a number of govern
ment institutions have moved here and
the city is bulging and bustling like E.
boom town with military men, officials
and scholars.
simultaneously, the province Is
going through its most frenzied era
of change since the revolution as the
government strives to strengthen COM
munications and mobilize its resources
In the shortest possible time.
Highways are being rushed in half
a dozen directions, aiming to link
Yunnan closer with neighboring coun-
tries and provinces. Steps are under
way to exploit the mineral resources,
especially gold and tin, in which the
province Is rich.
Students Trek 1,500 Miles.
One of the most remarkable fea-
lures Of the drift to Yunnan is the
1,500-mile trek of 1900 students and
200 professors from three Of the most
important Peiping universities across
the entire breadth of China to re-
establish themselves here as the Con-
solidated Southwestern University.
Hundreds of the migrating students
and teachers walked the last 700 miles
from Changsha, capital Of Human
Province.
