The envoy called at the foreign
Office with his governments message
following a similar demarche to
Hitler yesterday by British Ambas-
sador Neville Henderson.
Today the vestibules of both En-
bassies were piled with luggage

bassy took off his white cap and de-

Berlin.

Russian Danger Removed.
With the danger of meeting the
Russian Army midway in Poland
eliminated, the Nazis' determina-
ton to settle the Polish issue
promptly, even if it means blood
shed, became clearer each hour.
The authoritative Dienst Aus
Deutschland, possessing very close
connections with the foreign office
declared a solution of the Polish
problem was an immediate neces-
sity," and concluded urgently:
THE military status of the Reich
leaves no doubt that Germany is
prepared for all eventualities."
In other words, just simple COM
mand from Hitler is all that now is
required.
Satisfaction of Nazi demands, said
reliable informants, means the un-
conditional return of Danzig, the
cession of Pommerellen, Pomorze

motor cycles and trucks were requi-
sitioned for army use.
A column of trucks loaded with
fully-equipped air force units anc
towing field kitchens rolled eastward
through Berlin early today. Anti
aircraft guns were in place on the
capital city's public buildings ano
other points of vantage.
An official police notice appeared
in the newspapers today calling the
public's attention to the duty Of
each citizen to procure a gas mask

SHANGHAI, Aug. Ask thou
sand Japanese soldiers were reported
today to have been landed in the
Shanghai area in preparation for
some action" against the Interna-
tional Settlement, garrisoned by
nearly 5000 American, British,
French and Italian soldiers.
The sources of this report, the
most reliable foreign quarters, said
the landing took place yesterday and
that the japanese had been plan
ming for some time to occupy the
Settlement, whose xtra-territorialty
dates back to 1845.
These quarters said the japanese
previously had postponed action be-
cause of Soviet Russian-Germ ne
gotiation of non-aggression treaty
which lueft them uncertain of ia
pans position in the world lineup.
The original Japanese plan was
said to have called for cutting off all
rice supplies from the Settlements S
population of 1,120,860 Chinese. The
foreign population of the Settlement,
including japanese, is 28,583.
This move, it was supposed, would
intensity rice riots which have been
sporadic in the past few days. When
the situation was deemed by the
Japanese to be out of hand they in
tended to march into the Settlement
1t was said, on the grounds that po-
lice were unable to maintain order.
The Warning.
Some support for these reports
was given by the Japanese Army
spokesman at today's press confer
ence when he said that unless Set
tlement authorities were able to solve
the rice situation the japanese
would feel bound to take appropri-
ate measures"
This possibility, however, was not
mentioned by Gen. Otozo Yamada
commander of japanese land forces
In Central China, in a special inter-
view with the foreign press.
Yamada used the occasion to ex-
press regret for unavoidable"
bombing of third power property.
He added that numerous Incl
dents between the Japanese forces
and third power nationals, such as
mistreatment and slappings, have
arisen chiefly because of the Ian
guage difficulty, the difference in
customs and usage and wartime psy-
chology on the part of japanese
soldiers"
The general said Japanese au-
thorities always had taken care to
avoid such incidents" and would take
special precautions in the future.
While Japanese blamed Chinese
"proflteers" for the fact that Shang-
hal had less than a weeks supply
of rice, neutral sources said large
supplies had arrived, but the jap
anese army had not permitted them
to enter the city.

British Urge Nationals
To Leave Tientsin

TIENTSIN, Aug. "a R.-A con-
tinued rise of the flood waters of
the Hal River today led British of :
flcials to urge all their nationals able
to leave Tientsin to do so imme-
diately. The British said there was
an increasing danger from epi-
denies.
American authorities said a check
up indicated all their nationals were
safe. The majority of Americans
have been visiting the flooded United
States Marine Barracks by boat
once daily for food.
An appeal was sent to Shanghai
for anti-plague serum.
The japanese Army resumed its
strict blockade of the British and
French concessions, meanwhile
posting sentries in boats to regulate
traffic through flooded streets.
Blockade restrictions had been re-
laxed since last week end because
OF flood conditions which showed
no sign of abating Immediately to-
day. Heavy rain added to the suf-
fering Of Tientsin's thousands.
The sentries held up for two hours
one English boat which carried food
to Chinese marooned at the race
course grandstand.

situation in the British concession
as desperate without prospect of

New York, Jan. 30.-(AP)-A slow
motion rally today lifted stock mar
ket industrial leaders fractions to
more than two points. Steels, motors
and aircrafts were favorites, with the
ticker tape frequently idle. Profit
taking near the fourth hour shaded
extreme gains in most cases. Utilities
slipped when the Supreme Court rul-
ed for the government in the IVA
case, although the verdict was hardly
a surprise TO board rooms. While ten
sion in Wall Street over foreign af
fairs seemd to have lessened, many
traders inclined to do nothing either
way pending Hitler's speech later in
the day.
Corporation bonds generally were
higher and commodities were uneven.
A severe storm at Chicago delayed
opening of the grain pits until noon,
and both wheat and corn futures at
that center eased. Foreign securities
markets exhibited strength.

chimed ten and I came down to
earth with a bang. I grabbed my
coat from the bed and ran down
the front stairs and out of the
house.
I had no idea where the linden
tree was located, but as hurried
toward the aboretum I did not
think would have much trouble
finding it. It was not likely that
the woods would be overlooking

night. And els it happened, was
not wrong. Before had gone a
hundred feet caught a glimpse of
something white moving among
the trees. lodged behind corner
of the summer house on the estate.
AS my eyes gradually became
accustomed to the darkness, I saw
that the something white was a
mans shirt front. But I could not
see the mans face nor hear what
he was saying. The next tree from
me was a good twenty feet, and
Daphne and the unknown man

This being the main difficulty, the

say that we should go out of life as

REGULATION of the diet in the
elderly is more important than at
any other period of life, except in
fancy. And it is even harder than
in infancy because habit fights every
attempt to make changes. There are
two classes of old people who are es-
pecially hard to handle. Because the
senses of taste and smell are blunt
ed, some of them crave highly sea-
soned, rich food. They almost in
variably suffer from their indul-
gences because the appetite is way
ahead of the capacity OF the dlges-
tive system to take care of their pre-
ferments.

Long Prairie Merchants Will Not Sell
Butter Substitutes in the Future

Grocery dealers in Long Prairie entered into an
agreement to discontinue the sale of oleomargarne
and butter substitutes when the present stocks are
exhausted These dealers believe that the best inter-
ests of a community which derives its prosperity
from the dairy interest can best be served by not
handling butter substitutes. They believe that this
cooperation is due the dairy interest, says the Long
Prairie Leader, and they believe that this practice,
if widely followed, will result in reduction of butter
surpusses and increased prices which in its fnality
will bring higher incomes to farmers dependent upon
the dairy industry for their livelihood. This plan
was inaugurated in Sank Centre at time, and
for time followed closely. However, demand
for substitute products forced local businessmen to
again carry them in stock. The situation today
proves clearly that butter must be used extensively
in communities near the source of production and
that an extensive advertising program is necessary
to encourage residents of large cities to butter
instead of substitute products Producers and those
who benefit from production should be the first to
use butter-their example will show that they believe
in their product and will lend encouragement to
others for a wider of butter.
