Airplane Crashes

One German plane, believed to
have been part of the mine-laying
squadron, crashed into the sea off
the Norfolk coast and the dead
pilot and wreckage was recovered.
Plans were speeded in Geneva
for next weeks sessions of the
League of Nations, which will con-
slider Finland's demands for League
action against Russia.
Meanwhile, great interest GEN.
tered on Swedish fears. which re-
suited in a partial mobilization
yesterday. While the Swedes
greatly strengthened their defenses
on their border with Finland, IL
was noted also that their fortifica-
tons and defense forces were
strong in the south in the direction
from which possible menace from
Germany might come.
In Rome steel-helmeted grena-
diers were on duty near the Soviet
embassy to control Fascist student
demonstrations against Russia and
in sympathy for Finland. which
began last Saturday and spread to
Milan yesterday.
Italian newspapers distinctly
were pro-Finland and anti-Com-
munist, and it was believed the
demonstrations were condoned Off
cially to leave no doubt as to where
Italy stands with regard to Rus
sia's apparent wholesale expan-
sionist program.
Russia was linked with the Far
Eastern situation when two
prominent Japanese newspaper,
editorially warned the United
States against forcing Japan, BY
its Far Eastern policy, to seel
friendship with Russia.

All was quiet on the west
ern front, except for con-

in attempts to take French
prisoners. All German raids
into their lines were repulsed
with German losses, the
French said.
German resistance to the
allied blockade of her exports
was intensified when German
planes swept up the Thames
estuary, laying mines in an
effort to cripple shipping to
the vital port of London. Royal
air force fighting planes and
anti-aircraft batteries drove
off the raiders.
