GENEVA, Jan. 26.-The big and
the small nations Of the League split
today over whether to keep sanctions
provisions in the covenant.
The smaller nations favored junking
the punitive" Article Is as the
League Council began its Tooth ses-
sion. The article provides for eco
nomic sanctions against nations com.
mitting AN act OF war" and for pos
sible military action by League powers.
The larger powers wanted to keep
sanctions as part Of the League Frame
work. and Foreign Ministers Anthony
Eden OF Britain and Yvon Delbos of
France were reported determined to
uphold them in Council debate.
Compromise Indicated.
There was some indication OF COM
promise with the anti-sanctions
nations, who in the past have con-
tended that sanctions worked eco
nomic hardship against the nations
applying them, as we'll as against
the aggressor to be punished.
The compromise would be an un-
official understanding freeing League
nations from any obligation to apply
sanctions. but leaving provision for
1t within the League covenant.
Today's Council session was private,
and in ensuing public sessions most
of the attending foreign ministers
were expected to make general state
ments renewing pledges of faith in
League principles-these in answer
to Germany. Italy and Japan, who
have left the League.
Seeks to Keep Article Is Intact.
Ministers Of the larger nations were
believed ready in the private ses-
sions however, to inform the smaller
countries that they were free to de-
termine their own actions on sane
tons so long as Article Is remained
untouched in text.
Other business before the Council
included China's appeal against Japan.
alleging Nippon was an aggressor and
invader; a petition by the General
Council OF the jewish Congress for
dealing with Premier Octavian Goga s
Rumanian nationalist government on
the question Of Jewish rights, and
reports Of economic and financial
committees.

SHANGHAI, Jan. 26-The Japa-
nese drive to conquer Chinas lifeline
railway has been stalled for three
weeks, 1t was disclosed today by an
appeal from American missionaries at
Tenghsien-65 miles north Of the
Lunghai lifeline-for assurance that
Japanese would not lombard mission
refugee camps there. =,
Japanese had asserted their troops
occupied Tenghsien a week ago. but
the appeal, to United States Consul
General Clarence E. Gauss, disclosed
that the city still was in Chinese
hands.
The missionaries appeal indicated
the Japanese advance had begged
down against Chinese resistance south
Of Tsowhsien, which is about 80 miles
north of Suchow, junction point of
the Lunghai and Tsinpu Railways. 1t
had gone that far on January 7.
Gauss told Japanese authorities the
missionaries were flying white flag
with blue cross in the center and
asked them to refrain from lombard
ing areas thus marked.
Mountain -ttacked.
Chinese troops, supported by bomb
ing planes, attacked japanese posi-
tions on Takwanshan Mountain in a
counter offensive aimed at driving the
invaders from the Yangtze River VAL
ley above Nanking.
Chinese reports of the engagement
near Wuhu, so miles upstream from
the conquered former capital, said
both sides suffered heavy casualties.
The Chinese attackers had to face the
fire OF Japanese warships in the river
as we'll as artillery on the mountain
side.
Ranging downstream. five Chinese
bombers dropped projectiles on Japa-
nese positions at Nanking, where the
United States gunboat Oahu was ready
to aid the II Americans there If nee
essary
The Japanese naval spokesman said
one of the attacking planes was shot
down and declared little if any dam
age resulted from the raid, the third
since Nanking fell into japanese
hands last month.
Supply Depots Bombed
Japanese bombers, meanwhile. kept
up their attacks on Chinese supply
depots, airdromes and railway lines
near Canton, on the South China
coast.
On other fronts Japanese attempts
to consolidate their gains apparently
were held up by Chinese counter at
tacks. In Shanghai itself there was a
Japanese admission that complete
order had not been restored to con-
ouered areas outside the International
Settlement
The japanese Army spokesman said
a number of undesirable elements"
had entered Nantao, old Chinese quar-
ter south OF the Settlement, and were
looting and occasionally setting fires
despite efforts of Japanese police to
control them.
japanese Meet Resistance.
japanese forces attempting to drive
inland an army of 100000 Chinese
preventing consolidation of North
China and Yangtze Valley gains ran
into resistance on both the northern
and southern fronts.
Chinese said they were repulsing the
Notwithstanding japanese column
at Pengpu, north of Nanking The
other jaw of the japanese wise squeez-
ing against the Chinese corridor from
the north was halted in Southern
shantung Province, awaiting REIN
forcements.

You Al,rays Look for
MILDNESS in TOBACCO


The Indians had way of getting
pleasure out of life that white people
knew nothing about until Sir Walter
Raleigh took some tobacco back to
England. From that time until this
-. the smoking of pipes, cigars and
cigarettes has increased tremendously.
The pastime has become a great ma.
tional industry and it's enjoyment
universal. And when you buy tobacco
today in any form you look for
mildness!
To say that business success Of today
depends upon consistent advertising is
''putting it mildly; as a matter of fact,
