England And Japs Have Made
Agreement Regarding China

LONDON, July "a. - Britain
promised this week to stay out
OF the way of the Japanese ar
my in China and disapproved
any plans to ''buy peace" by
charting new appeasement
course through a loan to Germa-
ny.
Prime Minister Chamberlain
made the two statements in the
house of commons amid openly
voiced fears of opposition again
to the appeasement policy he
pursued until the German army
marched into Prague March Is.
AS an outgrowth of the bit
ter anti-British campaign in Jap

lions Of China, the prime minis
ter announced terms of a preli-
mlnary agreement under which
Britain recognized that Japan
csc forces in China have special
requirements for the purpose of
safeguarding their own security
and maintaining public order in
the regions under their control.
"They have to suppress or re-
move any acts or causes as will
ObStruct them or benefit their
enemy"
Foreign Secretary Lord Hall
fax in the house of lords declar-
ed that as a result of the agree
ment it was expected japanese
anti-British agitation would stop.
The agreement, announced 81
multanecusly by Britain and ia
pan was reached in Tokyo talks
between British Ambassador Sir
Robert Leslie Craigie and For
eign Minister Hachiro Arita as a
preliminary to a broader British
japanese conference on their dis
pute in TientSin which has been
intensified by the japanese block
ade since July ii of the British
and French concessions.
(Hailing the agreement as a
sweeping diplomatic victory,
japanese insisted it grants them
virtual belligerent rights in their
undeclared war against China.)
Chamberlain denied, however,
that the agreement involved any
change of British policy toward
the Chinese-Japanese war or that
his government "has now def
nitely taken the side of Japan"
Replying to barage of opposi-
ton questions, he denied the
agreement constituted de facto
recognition of japanese areas of

An important recommendation
made at recent Washington
conference which Floyd attend
ed, and one which should help
small farmers take part in the
program, was that there be es-
tablished a minimum soil-build-

Another important recommen-
dalton would allow farmers to

planting, in addition to the re-
gular soil building allowance for

THE WAR IS OVER

Peace-of evil sort, no doubt but nevertheless peace-came to Spain yesterday after 28 months of the bloodies and most bitter warfare in the history of the world
 The fate of the Spanish Loyalists had been sealed since the fall of Barcelona several weeks ago that yesterdays exploitation of Madrid didn't even rate the main bannerines of the newspapers.
 Madrid, where gallant defense by il-armed rabble against the tanks artillery and planes of Fran co Mussoni and Hitler won the admiration and sympathy of the world two years ago gave in yester day without struggle.
 "War-haggard faces reflected the ravages of hunger in the city of nearly 100000 population" the Associated Press account of the surrender stated The faces were those of and children as well as of men. If there had been men alone in Madrid, the flag of repubcanism would still be flying there in defiance to the dictators of Europe But man will not forever watch his wife and children starve.
 When the Spanish started amid confusing reports of assassnatons reyots storming of barracks and hand to hand fighting in the streets Americans couldn't tell the combatants apart and didn't know where their sympathies lay. Before it was over, Americans well knew Public opinion polls taken month ago showed overwhelming preference in this country for the of the Loyasts, the losers. -ss Mussoni on the other side; so Hitler thousands of Moorish mercenaries; so-and it was grief to many of to it in that lineup
  to be supporters of Franco Mussoln for poi- tca favors he has still to ask in Spain Hitler for Itays backing in his Central Europe conquests; the Moors for money and plunder; the Catholic Church because it had really suffered persecution and indg nity under the regime of the Proetariat in Spain and because it placed it's trust for deal in the hands of the Fascists
 The waged ito the hilt' as no war had been since the Middle Ages. Every method of de- struetion and terror used against the whole popu lation. It not enough to kill in the trenches. All Spain became battlefield Women and children, the aged, weak, helpless wounded in hospitals were bombed without mercy Torpedoing of food ships bound for ports where thousands starved cepted method of warfare.

New Five Year Plan
Cincinnati Enquirer)

Sir Samuel Hoare, who is one of MT. Chamber ains closest associates in the British Cabinet and who active in the effort to "appease" dictators before MT Chamberlain even became Prime Minister comes forward with proposal to declare a five year holiday scares. He envisions period during which there will be neither wars nor rumors of wars"
 The suggestion would be an intriguing one if it did not follow six years of political disntegration in Europe and did not accompany the most colossal race for arms supremacy the world has seen. It is Sir Samuels idea, apparently that the four men who made the Munich agreement, plus Joseph Stalin, could insure peace in Europe if they only chose to collaborate. isflSyWYME
 As far as it goes, this is certainly true But Sir Samuel said nothing of the terms on which he expect ed Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini to embrace his peace plan Unless Herr Hitler has changed his ideas since he last discussed these matters he is determined CD to break the military power of France, (2) to conquer the Russian Ukraine (3) to bring the Danube Valley under his tutelage and (4) to Germany's prewar colonies-most of which are now held by European states.
 Are to suppose Hitler will abandon these aims and content himself with the boundaries of today? It is difficult to imagine Are to suppose Italy will be satisfied to drop all her demands France? That too seems improbable The only other alternative is to that Sir Samuel proposes peace flexible enough to permit Germany and Italy to realize their natural aspirations five-year peace of this sort would be disastrous than the tenuoIls peace of the last five years, which has been period of uninterrupted military and diplomatic successes for three allied powers-Germany, Italy, and Japan
 Before embracing fve-year peace plan of this sort America might well ask the peoples of Czecho- sovakia> Austria, Ethiopia, Spain, and China what they think of the last five years of peace the Fascist dictators terms.

became a problem in higher geometry, with mechanism abolished. The groundwork for the conception laid by the mathematicianS, Lobachevsky, Boyai and Riemann who showed that it not enough to reason about space in the of Euclid but that the correctness of proposition in geometry must be established by observation; by Nicholson and Morley who engaged in what know to have been the meaningless task of trying to prove the existence of ether; by the discoveries that astronomers and astrophyscists had made with powerful telescopes and discriminating spectroscopes by Minkowski who treated time a fourth dimension. It took a bold mind to sweep away the absurd ether and transfer it's properties to space to relationships where had them before to prove that all past effort to explain the universe was msdrected.

No Home for Charlie Schwab
Cleveland Plain Dealer)


 It would be hard for the most energetic rabble roJser to evoke very much hatred toward Charles M Schwab, the veteran steel master. For one thing, he is always called Charlie" Mobs do not leap the barricades to tear down Charles.
 More successfully than many leaders of big busi- ness Schwab has kept the human touch. Long before there public relations experts to Emily Posts to industrial magnates Schwab knew the value of bit of sentmentaity even in trade like steel raditionally as hard as its product.
 Schwab returned to New York last week, an- nouncng that he was going to close his three big houses, the immense chateau Riverside Drive the baronia estate in Pennsylvania and the somewhat more modest residence in Bethlehem
 Now have no home" he commented. Tn the mouths of some men of his position that would sound like affectaon. But it in character for the IT. year-old steel man. His big houses are empty since the death of his wife Tn the garish years the turn of the century many of Schwabs associates who found sudden wealth in steel acquired new wives along with their riches. But Schwab clung to the mate of his youth, the little schoolteacher who wed him when he really was poor country boy on the way up.
 Now Charlie Schwab is alone. He is a lonely old man. His palaces do not delight him. He hints that the 75-room French Renaissance mansion which rises above the Hudson will probably be replaced by an apartment house. Such is the American way In France chateaux endure through the centuries Here they are lucky if they survive 30 years

SALMON AND OIL

m, The Bureau of Fisheries reports that very accep- table provision has been made to protect salmon spawn and young fish from possible harm result of the oil drilling operations of the Experimental Drilling Association in the Alaska Peninsula area
 The association, in which the Standard Union and Associated Oil companies cooperating, struck deposit of salt water at depth of about 800 feet The pressure at the well head 15o pounds and the well was capped the salt water later being released under direction of the Bureau of Fisheries at highwater period in Salmon Creek, tributary Becharof Lake This done dilution would be sufficient pre- vent the salt water from injuring spawn fry.
 Tn order to provide means of avoiding damage from any other wastes in future the Association laid more than mile of six inch pipe to point on the Pacific drainage of the peninsula, through which wastes could be discharged without any possibility of injury to fish life
 In commenting on the matter in a recent publi- cation, a Bureau of Fisheries spokesman says Through this voluntary cooperation with the Bureau of Fisheries the part of the Association protection to fish and spawn has been provided before any dam- age could occur This .s. is fine example of pro- lection afforded natural through a mutual understanding of the problem by an industry and conservation agency
