WALSH EXPLAINS
DISPUTED SALE
Non-P Productive Tract Sold
for $500 on Committees
Approval, Recommend

M. j. Sullivan Of Wildemere ave-
nue. acquired the tract Of land at
Walnut and Locust streets for $3.50
from the city because he was the
highest bidder and the property was
productive so far as the city
was I, concerned, John ]. Walsh
chairman Of the board Of educa-
ton explained at a meeting yester-
day.
Suggestions Of chicanery have
been carried In recent reports Of
the sale for $3.50, when the property
Is listed on the assessors books as
valued at $4,000.
Commissioner Louis A. Bria de-
manded yesterday that the school,
house committee explain just what
had been done with regard to the
sale Of that property.
Chairman Walsh answered that
the "city ought to be tickled Ia
death to get $500 for the property
He explained that the property
which Is el-shaped, had been pub
licly advertised for sale for many
years, and that there had always
been a "for sale" sign on 1t. He
explained that the city had saved
$500 by selling that land, for q re-
tanning wall which was necessary
would have cost that amount.
In explaining the history Of the
land, Chairman Walsh said that
many years ago the tract which In
cluded the site Of the Locust street
firehouse, was owned by an outside
school district. Subsequently, the
school was razed and o portion Of
the land taken for the firehouse
The board Of education retained
title to the balance.
Chairman Walsh stated that the
late School Inspector John F. White
received three bids for the property
and that the Sullivan bid was the
highest. He said that the property
was a constant source Of trouble
to the board, requiring removal Of
ice and snow. Several complaints
were received regarding the condi-
ton Of the retaining wall, he said
DR.. Condor, clerk Of the board
stated that the $3.50 bid Of Mr.. Sui
Ivan was approved by the whole
board before 1t was accepted. His
records show that the scnoolhouse
committee voted to place the prop
erty on sale, and that on August
80. 1887, the same committee asked
permission Of the board to sell the
lot.
During the course Of the meeting
Chairman Walsh stated that the
$4,000 assessment included the entire
piece Of property. firehouse, land
and all. Later he was corrected and
stated that he might have been mis-
taken.

Dispatches from Toxic showed that
q note einbodying Mr.. Hull's ideas had
been delivered to japanese authorities.
1t was said here that the note made
the following points clear:
d) The United States has volun-
tarily advised Americans In the war
areas to leave.
(2) Obligation to protect Americans
IN those zones rests. however, upon
fthe japanese high command.
(3) The japanese government will

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Feb. 26-
United States Senator William H. Die
terich, denied support by the domi-
nant Democratic factions in Illinois,
has decided to forego an attempt to
win denomination at the April IL pri-
mary.
The Senator announced his decision

him for denomination. He likewise
was turned down by the Chicago
Democratic organization headed by
Mayor Edward J. Kelly and National
Committeeman Patrick A. Nash.
The withdrawal of Senator Dieterich
lett three candidates in the field. They
were Newton Jenkins of Chicago and
the two major figures, Representative
Scott w. Lucas of Havana, and United
State District Attorney Michael L. Igoe
Of Chicago. Mr.. Lucas has the backing
OF the Horner faction, while the Chi
eago organization has indorsed Mr..
Ieoe.

LONDON, Feb. 26.-Prime Minister

The departing Foreign Secretary
Anthony Eden's graceful self-efface-
ment to await the verdict Of history

dealing with Germany and Italy,
nevertheless wished the Conservative
government well in its task and made
clear he would give no aid to Liberal
and Labor party hopes Of overthrowing
the national cabinet.
Mr.. Eden quit rather than yield to
what he considered pressure from
italy in the Italian request that
friendship bargaining begin at once,
and in Rome. Mr.. Chamberlain agreed

servative party split. The opposition
lacked sufficient parliamentary ma
jority to be effective now. and the
path was cleared for Mr.. Chamberlain

This solution was expected then to
lead to Anglo German friendship

peasement, with the result that there

VOTE |SPLANNED
ON SCHUSCHN|CC
Fatherland Front Reported
Studying Referendum on
Support.
Ry the Associated Press,


VIENNA, Feb 26.-Austria's Chan
cellor Schuschnigg, with the nation
splitting more and more into Nazi and
anti-Nazi camps, faced today the pros
pect Of referendum to determine
whether he had the support Of his
Fatherland Front.
There was high resentment among
the Nazis, angered by Schuschnigg' s
determination to keep the nation in
dependent Of Germany and his con-
tinued refusal to permit the. Nazi
party the status of legality in Austria.
Political circles believed that a
number of. both Leftist and Rightist
supporters of Schuschnigg also were
wavering, presumably because they
feared Nazi pressure might force the
chancellor to give in to their demands
Nazis Clamor for Action.
While the nation was quiet, local
Nazi leaders were clamoring for action
by their chieftains against Schusch-
nigg's independence speech before
Parliament Thursday night.
Wait" was the Nazi's official word.
I'VE had our day of JOY. Let others
have theirs now We shall have ours
again in a few weeks"

versity Technical College was closed
when students demanded that Nazi
orderlies replace university police, the

Vote Hinted by Nazi Minister.
The hint of referendum by the
Fatherland Front to determine the de-
gree of Schuschnigg support came
from the Nazis' friend and pro-Ger-
man minister of interior, Arthur Seysz-
Inquart.
The Fatherland Front, Schuschniggs
coalition and the nations only legal
party, was studying plans for the vote,
Inquart intimated
Political circles held that such an
election must be held soon IF at all"
both Leftist and Rightists
who had been lukewarm to Schu-
schnigg, but supported him during the
Berchtesgaden dealings with German
Fuehrer Hitler, were wavering more
and more"
Large pro-Schuschnigg demonstra-
tions were held overnight, however. In
Salzburg, Klagenfurt, Bregenz and
Innsbruck and the government was
counting on a huge public works pro-
gram to Offset discomfort.
This program includes about 3d.

TOXIC, Feb. 26-The Japanese for
eign ONCE asserted today that reports
that the United States Government
rejected, through Ambassador Joseph
c. Grew, a japanese request for with
drawal Of American nationals from
the zone Of hostilities in North China
are entirely false"
The foreign ONCE stated emphatical-
ly that mo such request was ever
made by the japanese government to
any government"
Urged Requests to Chinese.
Japanese notes to third powers, the
foreign ONCE said, mainly urged third
powers to ask the Chinese not to place
military objects near churches, fac
tories and other property belonging
to neutrals
In Washington yesterday Secretary
OF State Hull disclosed he had sent
these instructions to, Ambassador
Grew:
There rests upon American officials
and other American nationals in
China no obligation whatsoever to
take precautionary measures requested
on behalf Of contending forces toward
safeguarding American lives and in
terests"
Effect Of Notes Explained.
The japanese foreign ofice declared
The report may be a perversion of
japanese notes to the following effect:
The japanese government express
an earnest desire that the property Of
nationals Of those powers located in
areas of China where fighting either
Is IN progress at present. or likely to
take place in the future, be appropri-
ately marked SO it will be free from At
tack through lack Of identification.
moreover, in view of the fact that
Chinese forces along the Peipine-
Hankow Railway and in areas along
the right bank Of the Yellow River
have been observed by japanese aerial
scouts deliberately placing such OF
their military objects as troop trains
and others in areas adjoining churches.
factories and other properties Of ma
tlonals OF third powers, the Japanese
government expressed a sincere wish
that the governments concerned would
use their good Offices in urging Chi
nese authorities to remove such mill
tary objects and, furthermore, to ad-
wise Chinese authorities not to place
such military objects in such places In
the future.
The Japanese notes were sent with
the sole object Of precluding all posi-
bilities Of infiicting damage upon the
lives and property Of nationals Of third
powers In case japanese forces were
compelled to attack those Chinese
military establishments"
Note From Russia.

had received . note from Russia
which, 1t said, threatened retaliation
for the detention Of 4 Soviet vessel,
The ship, . passenger liner. was
