LONDON, Aug. pa strike on
England's four main railroads, ef-
fective Saturday, was decided upon
late today by the Executive Com
mittee of the Associated Society of
Locomotive Engineers and Firemen.
The strike decision followed upon
failure of the companies to agree
to raise the minimum weekly wage
from As shillings (s11.25) to so
shillings ($12.50).
All labor will be withdrawn, the
union announced, unless an agree
ment is reached before Saturday.
England's other large rail workers
union, the National Union of Rail-
Waymen, decided to defer strike ac-
ton and to resubmit it's claims for
50-shilling minimum weekly wage.

refused.

Hitler has an inexorable way OF
raising the ante" His whole con-
duct of the past justifies this asser-
ton.
There is no doubt that the average
German now has been led to believe
the Poles won't fight. He sees his
Fuehrer again in the role of miracle
worker who augments the Reich
without shedding blood.

BY LOUIS p. LOCHNER,
Associated Press Foreign Writer,

BERLIN, Aug. 22.-The momen-
tous hand shaking" between Ger
many and Russia was seen by Ger
mans today as having the effect of
accelerating Nazi determination to
regain not only war lost" Danzig
but all the rest Of present-day Po-
land which once was Austrian or
German.
From the German viewpoint the
outlook shapes up this way:
Poland is now surrounded" by
German troops from the eastern
border of Slovakia via Bohemia and
Moravia up to the Baltic.
Germany moreover has nom
aggression pacts with all other
neighbors of Poland, meaning that
they will not attack Germany in
case she decides to move into Po-
land.
The dream of England and France
that Russia might join them in the
event of an attack by Germany is
held here to have been shattered.
England and France may regret
that their military mission told the
Russians what they have to offer in
a military way toward an alliance.
Russia Eyes Bessarabia.
The pressure upon Rumania to
come within the Rome Berlin axis
orbit will probably be increased
greatly now in the knowledge that
Soviet Russia still looks longingly at
Bessarabia.
Japan's flirting with a military al
lance with Germany and Italy is at
least temporarily ended.
Adolf Hitler definitely said in his
Reichstag speech of April % that
his one-time offer to content himself
with Danzig and a German-con-
trolled corridor through the corri-
dor" to East Prussia died when Po-
land rejected it.
1t therefore is highly unlikely in
the German view that Hitler now
will be inclined to accept Poland s
readiness-if such develops as the
result of last nights momentous de-

Russians, who have been brought ur
to think of Germany as potential
enemy, that Adolf Hitler was send
ing his foreign minister, Joachim
Won Ribbentrop, here to conclude a
mo war" pact.
Not single newspaper, however
commented on the announcement
one of the most significant in the
Soviet Unions history.
British and French quarters held
hopes the long-delayed mutual as
sistance pact with Moscow might
still be forged.
In these circles, the belief was ex-
pressed that the Soviet government
was using the German negotiations
to pry concessions from London and
Paris.
German circles said Won Ribben-
trop would arrive by special airplane
tomorrow with staff of 80 includ-
ing number of technical advisers
Length of Stay Uncertain.
BY ironic coincidence, he will be
quartered next door to the house
where the British mission is staying
Won R1bbentrop's headquarters
will be in the former Austrian Lega-
ton, now the property of Germany
There was no information on how
long Won Ribbentrop would stay in
Moscow, but there were indications
he would make every effort to con-
clude the negotiations speedily-in
contrast to the long drawn French
British diplomatic and military deal
ings with Russia.
Russian officials we're reported i'm
pressed by the quick methods with
which authoritarian GERMANY con-
ducts its diplomatic negotiations and
still smarting because Britain did
not send a cabinet minister to con-
duct the diplomatic talks.
The German foreign minister will
be the first active Nazi cabinet mem
ber ever to visit Moscow.
May Seek to Shock Entente.
Russia, they said, may have found
that it suited her plans to help Ger
many shock the British and the
French, thereby making both Paris
and London willing to grant any
Russian demands in exchange for a
conclusion of the tri-power pact.
"A non-aggression pact as such
may mean little or nothing" said
an official spokesman. Russia al
ready has one with Poland. AS for
the new pact we must wait to see
what it provides-if it is concluded" !"
Official sources cited the old
treaty of Rapallo, signed between
Russia and Germany in April, 1922.
to support their argument that
negotiations for a new non-aggres-
sion treaty was nothing new"
They said the Rapallo treaty was
still in effect and was moreover,
signed by Adolf Hitler in protocol
May, 1888.
The Rapallo agreement was ex-
tended by the treaty of Berlin of
1926, which said that if either Ger
many or Russia were attacked by q
third power the other would observe
a strict neutrality.

Japan Held Studying
Shanghai Blockade
Of Foreign Zone
Shooting Of 8 Chinese by
Briton Is Reason; Troops
And Tanks Moved Up
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
SHANGHAI, Aug. 22-Japanese
military authorities and Chinese
officials of the Japanese backed To-
cal government were reported today
to be considering possible blockade
of the Shanghai International Set
tlement, apparently as the out
growth of police shooting scrape.
The Japanese were said to have
moved additional troops, along with
tanks and other mechanical equip
ment, into an area along the set
tlement border where a Briton,
Sergt. w. l.. Kinloch of the Settle
ment police, killed two and wounded
six of the puppet governments po-
llcemen with submachine gun
last Saturday.
Sergt. Kinloch said he opened
flre when he was shot in the back
Demands for indemnitiees, punish
ment for Sergt. Kinloch and apology
and assurance against recurrence
of such incidents were presented
last night to Cornell Franklin,
American chairman of the Settle
ment Council, over the signature
OF Flu Siao-en, Shanghai Mayor.
Army Instigation Denied.
A Japanese Army spokesman
made the communication public,
along with an English translation,
but insisted the army had nothing
to do with its dispatch.
Reports from Marking were that
leaders of the reformed Japanese
sponsored) government view the
incident as an insult" and that
some agitators in Marking are de-
manding that the British be driven
from China and the Shanghai set
tlement restored to Chinese con-
troll"
Today's possible kite-fying dis
cussions indicated the Shanghai
Foreign Settlement might be headed
for blockade similar to that laid
against the British concession at
Tientsin June IA. The area, ex-
elusive of the French concession, has
a population of 1883 foreigners and
1,120,860 Chinese. Americans num-
ber 494.
japanese sources said: The de-
sire for such drastic action here is
rooted in the growing sentiment
against the Settlement Council as
a result of numerous incidents and
outbreaks of violence in the local
settlement"
japanese Area Troublesome.
Foreign authorities have contend
ed the principal source of violence
in Shanghai is the Japanese-con
trolled "badlands" area, adjacent to
the settlement
Mayor Flu was reported in Japa-
nese circles to have followed up his
indemnity note with demands that
his administration be given juris-
diction over Chinese district courts
in the French concession and the
settlement.
This was Identical with an Oft
stated demand by japanese military
authorities, who also seek possession
of land records for all Shanghai.
Foreigners suspect the local admin
istration would start confiscation
proceedings against, anti-Japanese
Chinese if it controlled the courts
and the land records.

country, disregard the non-aggres-
sion agreement between Berlin and
Moscow, and adopt a stronger poll
cy toward the Reich than hereto
fore. This apparently is the desire
of France, which, it is confirmed Off
cially. has called to the colors several
classes of reserves totaling some
100000 men.
Official quarters here are not in
cllned to believe the conclusion of an
agreement between the Reich and
the Soviet will have an important
effect on Japans policies in Asia.
According to these quarters, the
antl-comintern pact signed between
Toxic and the axis government was
just camouflage of an outright
military understanding. The Japa-
nese military, which continues to
dictate Tokio's policies, no longer has
territorial ambitions at the expense
OF the U. S. S. R.
AS long as the japanese thought
they had to confine themselves to
Northern China, they needed Vladi-
vostok and the Maritime provinces
as the logical outlet to the sea of
New Japan" But since they have
occupied important Chinese ports in
the south, the Maritime provinces no
longer represent vital question to
them.
Southern Expansion Basis Policy.
The policy of expansion toward
the south at the expense of Great
Britain, France and the Netherlands
now forms the basic policy of the
military in Toxic, and it is unlikely
that it will be abandoned because
of makeshift arrangement between
Moscow and Berlin, an arrangement
considered in Toxic as a precaution
regarding the European policies of
the axis rather than a change in
the Reich's fundamental policies.
The conclusion of the non-aggres-
sion pact will force the Roosevelt
administration to increase its Wig
ilance henceforth. While it is ad-
mitted that the question of Poland's
independence is more or less a mat
ter of sentiment in this country, the
administration feels that Germany
which is given free hand in Europe
might have certain definite designs
on the Western Hemisphere, par
ticularly in South America.

TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS DECLINE

More than thirty-two thousand per-
sons lost their lives in motor vehicle ac-
cidents during 1888. In addition there were
more than million persons who suffered
non-fatal injuries. Altogether the dollar
damage from traffic accidents approx
mated one and half billion dollars.
In calling attention to these figures
the National Safety Council points out that
traffic accidents declined during 1888. II
they had continued at the rate of former
years another seven thousand persons
would have been killed during the year
This decline in traffic accidents in
1888 is contrary to previous experience.
For over thirty years, with one exception,
there has been an annual increase in traf-
fic deaths, which offset the decline in
deaths from occupational, home and other
public accidents in the past.
The future looks brighter! The eigh-
teen per cent reduction in traffic fatalities
makes one realize that attempts to prevent
traffic deaths are not in vain Let the good
record continue.
