Defense Preparations
Made After Rejection
Of Axis Demands
BY the Associated Press.

BELGRADE, Yugoslavia, Aug. 10
German and Italian demands for
use of Yugoslav territory in wartime
were reported authoritatively today
to have been refused by YugosIavla,
and orders were issued to speed up
Notifications on the German from
tier.
In addition to ordering a speedup
OF border fortlt1cations, the govern
ment decreed immediate storing Of
food for the army and the civilian
population. The decree provided for
building up of surplus stocks Of
cereals, meat, canned goods, dried
vegetables, salt, fats, oils, coffee and
tea.

1t was said he would meet ennis

might return to Yugoslavia before
proceeding to Venice and Rome.

The Yugoslav government was
said to have decided that the Slight
est compliance with the italian and
German proposals would be incom-
patlble with the nations sovereignty.
Demands "Unofficial."
The demands, said to have been
submitted "unofhcially" and to have
been described by the axis powers
as calling for form of benevolent
neutrality" on the part of Yugo-
slavia, were reported to have in
cluded:
Wartime control of Yugoslav rail-
roads.
Placing of Yugoslav economic and
military centers under supervision
of Germany and Italy.
Placing all of Yugoslavia's war
materials and foodstuffs at German
Italian disposal.
Granting Germany and Italy the
right to cross ,Yugoslav territory to
Rumania or Bulgaria.
Would Add Rail Connections.
Control of the railroads would give
Italy and Germany direct rail con-
nections across the Yugoslav prov
ince of Slovenia, supplementing the
route through the Brenner Pass.
Quarters close to the government
expressed a belief that the axis
powers may have been prompted by
desire to strengthen Italy's mill
tary position for any operation from
Italian Albania against Greece.
These quarters believed that Ger
man agitation against Poland over
Danzig was a blind" to mask prep
arations in Southern Europe. De-
claring that Germany was unwill-
ing to risk head-on collision with
Poland and possibly British
French front which included Rus
sia, these quarters said light

SchweIIenbach Asks
Immediate Ban on
Arms 10 Japan
Tells Hull Government
Hos Machinery to
Bor Shipments
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Senator Schwellenbach, Democrat,
of Washington member of the
Senate Foreign Relations Commit
tee, urged the State Department
today to take immediate steps to
halt the flow of American war ma
terials to Japan.
In a letter to Secretary Hull,
Senator SchWellenbach said this
could be accomplished either by in
voking an old wartime statute en-
powering the President to ban the
export of any war materials in vio-
lation of law or by obtaining volun-
tary agreements of shippers to halt
such exports.
Machinery Available.
"The object of this letter." the
Senator wrote, "is to suggest to you
that there is available to the Execu-
tive Department of the Government
at any time the machinery by which
the shipment of war supplies to
Japan may be stopped"
He referred to an argument which
he made in the Senate last week
that the United States was violating
the nine-poWer treaty, which
pledges respect of the territorial
integrity of China, by supplying 70
per cent of the more important ma
terials used by the japanese in the
prosecution of the war against
China"
Since a treaty, once ratified, be-
comes law, Senator SchWellenpach
told reporters, any exploration of
arms that abets the violation of
that treaty becomes violation of
law.
Notice Held Unnecessary.
Il stated" Senator Schwellenbacil
continued in referring to the Senate
speech, that I was of the belief
that there was no necessity for CIV
ing six months notice of the termi-
nation of the 1911 treaty, but that i
offered no criticism of the fact that
it had been done"
Secretary Hull served notice on
the japanese government that this
country was abrogating a 1911 treaty
of commerce and navigation. This
move clears the way for possible
legislation next winter to curb ex-
ports to Japan.

Peace Appeal Made
To China by Wang,
Foe Of Gen. Chianq
Plea of Former Premier
Addressed Specially
To Cantonese
Ry the Associated Press.

~ tn6 ASSOClaLeu FIcSS.
SHANGHAI, Aug 10.-A disaf-
fected former premier of China,
Wang Ching wei, broadcast sweep
ing peace appeal to China in general
and South China in particular to-
night with the ostensible approval
of the Japanese army command.
Speaking by radio from Japanese
occupied Canton, Wang said the
Japanese were prepared to with
draw troops from China if Chinese
leaders would accept their terms
and avow opposition to Communism.
The appeal of the former premier,
who broke last winter with General
issimo Chang Kai-shek and since
has acted in concert with Japanese
leaders, came as United States con-
sular officials sought to learn how
Americans in number of Japan
ese-held Central China cities had
Jared during recent anti-American
agitation.
Addressed Mainly to Canton.
Addressing his bid particularly to
his fellow Cantonese, Wang said that
"if KWangtung civil and military
authorities support my peace pro-
posals, I am able to assure you that
within the immediate future Canton
will be returned to the Cantonese"
Canton, the capital of Kwangtung
Province and the metropolis of
Southern China, fell to the Japan
ese last October, but Japanese con-
troll little beyond the city itself.
Wang said one of the Japanese
who gave him the assurances was
Gen. Rikichi Ando. chief of Japanese
Army forces in South China, and as
serted that if Chinese leaders would
declare publicly for peace and op-
pose Communism an immediate
armistice could be arranged.
He accused Generalissimo Chang
kal-shek of sacrificing the interests
OF China for personal gain"
Since he fled Chungking last De-
cember, Chinese generally have con-
demned Wang's activities.

Old Experiment Measures Weight of Earth

The measuring Of the mass or
weight of the earth is a familiar
astronomical problem. Other bod
les are weighed by measuring the
attraction of the earth upon them;
the same end is accomplished in the
case of the earth, by comparing the
attraction which this globe exerts
upon some body on its surface with
the attraction exerted upon the same
body by a known mass at known
distance.
There have been several methods
tried to accomplish this, the simplest
of which is that Of observing the de-
Walton from the vertical of a plumb
line near an isolated mountain. The
volume of the mountain must first
be found, Of course, by accurate
survey, and its density calculated
from the geological structure and
density Of its component rocks. But
this plan, though simple. is not near
ly as accurate in result as that Of

sion balance This method il known

ties of large horizontal bar, NOV

Above this center light horizontal
rod, having on its ends two very
small balls Of lead, is supported by a
fine wire. When the rod bearing
the small balls is in equilibrium, the
ball having the globes Of lead is
moved until these globes are brought
nearly in contact with the small
balls. The force of their attraction
then tends to draw the small rod
from its position of equilibrium, and
the amount Of torsion thus produced
is measured carefully.
