200 More to Join 300 Jews
Stranded by Uruguuy's Bars

Jose Bozzano said in Asuncion that
all Jewish immigrants must have
entrance visas issued by the Ma
tional Land Colonization Bureau,
and this bureau said in turn that
the refugees stranded here, not be-
ing farmers, would not be allowed to
enter Paraguay.
Foreign Minister Elias Ayala of
Paraguay declined to say whether
his government would relent in it's
sudden move, carried out by Para
guayan consular agents here.
Line Makes Representations.
The 1talmar Navigation Co., op-
orators of the liner Conte Grande,
made representations to the Para
guayan government at Asuncion,
arguing that the Italian government
would not permit the refugees to
return to Genoa, where most of the
visas were granted.
Although some of the Jews were
from Italy, most were from Ger
many. The 200 due Monday sailed
from Hamburg and were believed
to be mostly Germans.
A high Uruguayan government Of
fetal said that the refugees lin the

main in Uruguay if no other solution
is found"

Italian Plane Reported
Over SomoIiIond

DJIBOUTI. French Somaliland
Jan. IA fP).-An Italian airplane was
reported today to have flown deep
over French Somaliland territory,
apparently scouting the area into
which French troop reinforcements
moved this week.
Reports reaching this seaport
town from the interior said the
plane yesterday flew over the stra-
tegic Dekkil Mountain district,
about So miles from the Ethiopian
frontier.
The Dekkil area is north of the
Djibouti-Addis Ababa Railroad
which has been one of the causes
of friction between France and
Italy. 1t lies to the south of the
other main French line OF COM
munications in Sonaliland, the road
from Gobad, on the Ethiopian bor-
der, which runs northeast to the
Red Sea.
The report said the plane flew
over the little village OF Alisabiet.
Detachments of Senegalese sharp
shooters, sent from France to re-
lnforce local garrisons, started
moving up to the frontier two days
ago. Almost simultaneously there
were reports of Italian troop con-
centratlons along the borders of the
French colony.

MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay, Jan. IA.
Three hundred refugee Jews from
Germany and Italy who were on
their way to make new homes in
Paraguay found themselves sudden

by the unexpected problem, were

Brazil, although friendly to the
United States, also is not sold on
the pure democracy, and it joined
Peru in the objections to the demo-
cratic principles" phrase.
Some of the leaders from the
small nations of the Caribbean area
are not in accord with Secretary of
State Cordell Hull and other mem
bers of the United States delegation
who believe that the United States
accomplished a great deal against
the European invasion at the Pam
American parley.
Some of these have said in con-
versations that they believed the
United States had let them down
by not fighting Argentina to the last
ditch over the continental solidarity
declaration.
Argentina insisted she would not
sign any declaration that singled
out European and other off-conti-
nent countries as potential threats
to the sovereignty of the nations of
the Americas-and she won her
point.
Some Caribbean leaders said they
jumped into the fight to support
the United States demands, believ-
ing its delegation would see the issue

They still hope the United States
will show real strength and deter

already has obtained a good foot

SHANGHAI, Jan. Is Sunday. -
A Japanese Army spokesman re-
ported today the 'pacification' of
the Hangchow area after 800 bat
ties and skirmishes in a year.
HangchoW, capital of Chekiang
Province, lies about 100 miles south
west of Shanghai. The japanese
captured it on Christmas Eve, 1887,
and Chinese a week ago launched
a surprise offensive designed to re-
capture the city.
533 Reported Killed.
The japanese spokesman said
Chinese regulars now had been
routed and guerrillas had been
dispersed. He asserted the mop
ping-up operations resulted in the
killing of 435 Chinese and the cap
ture of 425, as well as a large num-
ber of machine guns, rifles and am
munition. japanese casualties were
reported as SO killed and 300
wounded.
Chinese advices reported that the
Japanese had started an advance
from Canton, South China metropo-
lis, toward Tsungfa, 80 miles to the
northeast, and an offensive in the
north directed against Yumenkow,
Yellow River crossing between
Shansi and Shensi Provinces.
Verifying Chinese reports that
Generalissimo Chang Kai-shek's
troops had recaptured Shangcheng,
strategic city in Southeast Honan,

ing infantry energy, but keeping up
activity against the enemy.

that Germany would like to spread
It's political influence at the same
time
Germans know that politics and
economics are so closely linked in
some of these countries that to con-
troll one it is necessary to control the
other, at least to a certain extent.
Few authorities in Latin America
ever have believed that Germany or
any other off continent nation would
attempt military invasion of Latin
America.
But If any power is able to control
both the political and economic life
OF these nations it would reap a
harvest almost as rich as that of
military invasion-without the ad-
verse reaction to armed force.
Latin American propaganda ef-
forts Of both Nazi Germany and
Fascist Italy are much in the spot

the Pan-American Conference.
United States Reply Is Sharp.
The United States Government,
through President Roosevelt, has
used sharp words in expressing it.
self on the methods of totalitarian
governments and it has said very
pointedly that it would combat
their activities in Latin America.
Small nations were the first to
display their willingness to lend a
hand to the United States.
Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay,
Peru, and possibly Chile, however,
have shown an inclination to be
timid about fighting the European
political and economic invasion.
Argentina is not willing to start
a row with it's best customers for
its two major products-beef and
wheat. The Argentines have not
forgotten for a moment that North
American sanitary regulations pre-
vent the sale of Argentine beef in
the United States. Paraguay and
Uruguay usually follow Argentina.

Roth, former steward on the

of possessing Communistic news

At his one-day trial in the GRIM
inal section of the Hanseatic Su-
preme District Court today Roth
testified he did not know the paper
had Communistic tendencies.
The court president told him it
was "his duty to examine contents
of the paper" and imposed a six
month sentence from which was
deducted the month and half he
has spent in Jail. No appeal from
the verdict is permitted.
The court said it was "of the
opinion that the defendant was fully
aware he possessed a newspaper
with Communistic tendencies which
were directed against Germany. He
also knew such papers are pro-
hibited in Germany"
Emigrated 10 Years Ago.
Roth emigrated to the United

and became a naturalized citizen
in 1881.

1T would be particularly gratify-
ing If these matters could be dis
cussed in direct conversations be-
tween high officials of our respective
governments in that frank and
friendly manner and in that spirit
of mutual helpfulness which fortu-
nately are traditional in the re-
lations between Brazil and the
United States"
President Vargas readily accepted
the invitation on behalf of DR..
Aranha, who served for several years
as Ambassador to Washington.
Germany's economic penetration
IN Latin America has been particu-
larly impressive in Brazil, where
Germany showed the United States
into second place in 1888 in the
sale OF goods. although this country
still is Brazils best customer for
exports.
Loan Possibilities Studied.
In connection with DR.. Aranhas
forthcoming visit, it was recalled
that the Treasury Department re-
Gently announced it was investi-
eating possibilities of lending money
in Latin America to stimulate
American trade there.
This announcement followed a
survey of trade possibilities made by
DR.. Warren Lee Pierson, president of
the Export = Import Bank. who
toured Latin America in 1898.
DR.. Aranha will be the second Bra
lillian foreign minister to come here
as the guest of the Government. DR..
Laro Miller made a similar trip in
the summer Of 1914, and various
Presidents, Presidents-e!ect and
prime ministers have visited the
United States as guests of the Gov
ernment.
National defense problems also
may enter into the forthcoming con-
versations. Brazil attempted to
lease six destroyers from the United
States in 1887 for training purposes,
but the move was abandoned after
some objections had been rased here
and in Argentina. The United
States, however, has loaned Brazil
naval and military missions and is
considering lending agricultural ex-
perts and advisers to that country.
Two Questions Pending.
Undersecretary of State Sumner
Welles, who is expected to take a
leading role in the discussions with
