23-Mile Advance Greatest
of Any in Weeks of
Fighting

SHANGHAI, Feb. =. (UP).--
The Japanese News agency today
reported that japanese storm
troops had captured a key posi-
ton on the Tientsin-Nanking
railroad and indicated japanese
believed that their advance on
Pengpu had been made easier.
Japanese troops were reported
today also to have smashed gap
ing hole in the Chinese lines along
the Chin (Mingkwang) river on
the Northern Anhwei front and
advanced % miles in the greatest
gain they had made in a single
day during weeks of fighting.
Japanese reports said the rein
forced Japanese army, advancing
northwestward from Marking, had
struck swiftly from Mingkwang,
captured Linkwaikuan 20 miles to
the northwest, marched 10 miles
overland to the banks of the Hwei
Ho and brought Pingpu, strategic
city across the river within range
of its guns.
Chinese sources, which yester-
day asserted the Japanese had
been driven back with heavy
slaughter, were silent today on
the fighting around Linhwaikuau.
An unconfirmed Chinese report,
however, said Chinese soldiers
had surrounded Tsining, in Shan
tung privince, causing the Japa-
nese to begin preparations for
evacuation. 49,. ...
The Japanese were driving on
Hsuchow, chief Chinese base in
North China, from north and
south. The southern army was
reported 100 miles south of Hsu-
chow-at the intersection of the
East-West Lunchai and North
South Tientsin- Pukow railways
while the northern army was en-
gagged in a heavy encounter
around Tsining, 100 miles to the
north.
Thus in "a hours the Japanese
were reported to have drawn the
jaws of their trap % miles closer
to Hsuchow.

Teruel To Decide
Fate O f Franco S
Drive for Valencia

Hendaye, France, June % (AP)--
Spanish government commanders re-
ported today that insurgent forces
slowly were being dislodged from their
stranglehold on the Valencia high
way southeast of Teruel.
Both sides conceded that the fate
of General Frances campaign against
Valencia hung on the battle along
the Teruel-Segunto road.
Advices from Valencia said the
constant pounding of government
counter attacks had driven the in
surgents from many heights about
% miles southeast of Teruel and IS
miles northwest of Valencia. On the
coastal front, however, where anoth-
er insurgent army is pushing south
toward Valencia, a government count
G offensive came to an abrupt end
and militiamen were hard-pressed to
stop renewed insurgent drive.
Insurgent air raiders bombed Bar
celona today, one day after the Span
ish government had accepted Great
Britain's plan for a neutral commits
sion to investigate bombing of Span
ish cities. It was the first air raid on
that city, temporary capital of gov
eminent Spain, since June %.
The planes flew over at a high al
titude, dropping their bombs on the
outskirts. There were no reports Of
victims or damage.

Hankow, China, June % (AP)-The
international train, draped with Anne
rican, British and French and Ger
man flags, departed from Hankow
this morning, carrying 210 foreigners

scheduled, because of farewell func-
tions planned in their honor.
The international train was routed
toward Hong Kong. Twenty six adj
ditional foreigners, including eight
Americans, were to board the train at
Changsha, capital of Human province,
300 miles south of here.
The remaining international COM
munity includes $50 Americans. more
than 200 Britons, so French and a
like number of Germans, including
the military advisors.
The Berlin government has recall
ed the German ambassador, Oscar
Trautmann, because of apparent dis
pleasure over the reluctance of Cen
eralissimo Chang Kai-Shek to part
with his military experts, who are
credited with a large share of Chinese
war strategy.

ONLY HALF STATE
TO VOTE SATURDAY
Marked Contrast This Year
With Hot Run-Off Pri-
mary in 1896

Raleigh, June 28-Two years ago
all hundred counties of North Caro-
lima were interested in the primary
election of July 4, with three State
wide races, as well as many local ones
to be decided. This year voters in
81 of the hundred will not even go to
the polls for any purpose whatever.
AS a result, most of the firecracker
day pyrotechnics this year will be pro
vided by squibs, cannon crackers,
Roman candles and skyrockets- not
by political goings on.
Only four ballots have been prepar-
ed and sent out by the State Board
of elections congressional and
two solicitorial.
Saturday, July 2, voters of the sixth
will choose between Judge Lewis
league, of High Point, and Oscar
Barker, of Durham, for Congress.
In the eighth the battle will be to
see whether c. B. Deane, Of Rocking
ham, or William o. Burgin, of Licking
ton, shall go to Washington.
In the sixth solicitorial the candi-
dates are J. Abner Garker, of Rose
boro, and Divers D. Johnson, of War
sal; in the twenty-first r. j. Scott Of
Danbury, is being opposed by Allan
d. Ivie, Jr., of Leaksville.
There are enough other counties
in which there are local run-offs to
bring to 48 the total units in which
the polls will be open.
AS a result, it is certain that there
