 Submit To Ultimatum
 French authorities perforce had submittd to a Japanese ultimatum, expiring at midnight last night, for drastic military concessions which would give Japan 8 foothold in Indo-C China, dominating the far eastern steamship lane and strat- egically important as regards Hong Kong, Singapore and the Phillip pines, and would aid them in their long and costly war against China. Under an agreement reached 8 few hours before the ultimatum was to have expired, Japanese troops began landing at Haipong, the port of Hanoi, yesterday afternoon. At the same time troops of the aggressive Japanese army of South China, moving from the Canton area, crossed the frontier on the Manning Hanoi railroad. Attack BlOckhOuse Just on this side of the border, they care on a French blockhouse at the Gong Gang railroad station, and according to dispatches received here, they attacked at once. The small French -Indo Chinese force replied so warmly that the Japanese were held of for hours. Suspending their attack only at midnight, the Japanese were expec- ted to reform their lines and attack the blockhouse in overwhelming force today.
 French officials charged that the Japanese had attacked the block house in direct violation of the agreement they had wrested from Indo- China.
 To Land 5000 Japs According to information here, the French Japanese agreement called for the landing of 5000 Jap anese troops at Haipong for garri- son purposes and the concession oi three airplane bases in Indo- Chinese territory.
 But the Japanese Canton army, Il was asserted, went beyond that agreement and informed the Jap anese military mission here that I was send',g troops across the iron. tier, starting last night.

 Kidnaper In Trouble
 Too many things had happened since 10 a. m. yesterday for Mullen broihc to think about toys. His auto mobile had gone over 8 40-foot enl- bankment. Neither he nor Marc was injured, but the kidnaper, fearing that the battered 1886 Ford sedan in which he was transporting the child would be recognized, had fired bullet through the gasoline tank and applied a match.
 While the car was still flaming, he took the automobile of deer hunter in the Sierra Nevada foot hills and, started up the back road. with baby Marc on the rear seat.
 The road led to the lumber mill managed by Cecil Wetzel, near Pine River.
 Dead-End Roads
 "How the hell do you get out of here?" The kidnaper asked when he was accosted by Wetzel and his as- | S4oId1lt, G4AAAo tVOSAo'
 "Where'd you get that baby?' Wetzel asked.
 Muhlenbroich reached for one oi his two guns.
 Ignoring the gun, Wetzel pumr.el- ed him to the. ground and tied his hands and feet. Then he and Woods tossed him into the tonneau of the stolen gar and drove him and the wide-eyed baby to the summer camp and general store of MT. and Mrs Frank Breitenbach.
 While score of vacationers watched, Wetzel and Wood handed the baby over to the motherly Mrs Brietenbach and started their cap tive walking toward vacant cabin The kidnaper tried break for free dom.
 Knocked Him Out
 The 22O-pound Wetzel, a farmer. football player, knocked him dowr with a sledge-hammer blow of hi; fist. Blood gushed from the kidnap- CTS skull. Bystanders hauled Muh. lenbroich into the cabin and trussec him on bed, while Wetzel called the FBI.
 Marc, Jr., still wearing the red white and blue sun suit in which tht kidnaper found him Friday near tht mansion of his parents, seemed de. lighted with the excitement entering about him.
 Mrs. Britenbach fed him consom me and ice cream and let him plal with her cocker spaniel. Soon G-mer and sheriff's deputies were swarm ing over the gold Country between here and Placerville, while one ca took the kidnaper. and anothe rushed Marc toward home.
 The baby was 'en route whei Count and Countess De Tristan heard of his rescue. They wer lkneeling in church, praying fo safety of their only child, when tn word arrived.

small piece of paper along with

address, and l will give you free
opinions on three pressing ques-
tons.
P. A. W.: My husband and l
have worried ourselves sick for
such long time and we would
like to know what would be best
for us to do about the plans that
we have?
Ans: Well you will continue to
worry until you get another car,
so you might as well make plans to
purchase some kind of car and get
over this fever. With both of you
working regularly you
shouldn't find it too expensive for
you to handle.
G.. E. W.: have secured a di-
vorce from my husband, but he
won't move. He makes threats
about what he is going to do and
I want to know how l can get rid
of him?
Ans: He's determined not to
leave am afraid that you will
have to take legal steps in order
to make him move his things out.
He feels now that he would like
to call the divorce off and try to
patch things up between you, but
doesn't know how to tell you. Get
this thing settled as soon as you
can.
D. M. D.: My husband has a
job and 1 wish to know if he is
going to be successful or not?
Ans: From all indications he
will make a good worker for the
company who has employed him
although it is going to be
necessary for him to leave the
state and work for awhile this
spring. Encourage him to stick
with his firm for there is future
for him there.

L. H.: 1 am desperate. l was
supposed to have been married last
month and was hoping to borrow
some money, but failed and had
to postpone the wedding. When
can I get the money to get married
on and where will it come from?
Ans: Son, borrowing money to
get married on is like "rObbing
Peter to pay Paul." it just won't
work. You had better just save as
much money as you can each week
from your own salary, and when
you feel that you have enough
ahead; then make arrangements to
marry. Marrying when you have
debts to pay spells unhappiness, so
don't start your marriage off
wrong.
o. J. L.: Would it do me any
good to go to the hospital as l
haven't got much faith in myself
anyway?
Ans: When the critical mo-
ment comes, you will show faith
and want to recover the same as
anyone else in your condition. Yes,
take your Doctors suggestion and
make arrangements to go to the
hospital when he advises it L.
whether you realize it or not, you
are just as anxious to get we'll as
your doctor is to see you well.
C. A. M: I am still in love with
my first husband. Tell me if I am
waiting in vain and does he mean
the things he writes to me and his
daughter? How can I send for my
Astrology reading?
Ans: At times your first hus-
band feels that he will never be
satisfied without you and his
daughter again then at other
times he doesn't seem to miss you
very much. Although it is indicated
to me that during one of these de-
pressed spells of his, he will make
a trip to visit you and you prob
ably will go back together. If you
desire one of my AstrolOgy Read
ings, just wrap quarter in
