Thai Leaders Fear
For Independence
In Link 10 Japan
Insist Requests to
Vichy Contained No
Threats of Force
By c. YATES MCDANIEL,


BANGKOK, Observation-Disclosures of
Thailand (Siam) are torn today be-
tween the necessity of providing
territorial satisfaction for the ma
tionalistic aspirations they have
drilled into their people and growing
fear that insistence on their claims
against French Indo-China will
force them into an alignment with
Japan which might cost Thailand
her independence.
Twice-September and October
2-Bangkok formally asked Vichy
to return two small areas in Laos,
westernmost Indo-China state which
France took from Siam by threat
OF force in 1898.
Inhabitants are of the Thai (Sia-
mesel race. the government main
tanned, and the areas are west of
the Mekong River, the natural and
historic boundary between French
1ndo- China and Thailand. Bang
kok also requested the cesSion to
Thailand of the states of Laos and
Cambodia if and when France re-
linquiShed her sovereignty over
Indo-China.
Demands Rejected.
Vichy rejected Bangkok'S demands
on both occasions and declared In
do-China would resist with force
any Thai attempt to regain the
territories by armed force.
The United States took two &C
tons which Thailand has considered
support for the French position.
The State Department reiterated its
stand against any alteration of the
status quo by threat of or resort to
force, and United States officials
at Manila confscated warplaneS-
purchased by the Thai air force
on the ground they were needed for
United States rearmament.
Simultaneously. an American oil
company Cancelled a contract for
aviation gasoline placed by Thalland
and another American concern in
| formed Bangkok it would be unable
to fill an order for gun cotton.
Aroused Resentment.
These actions aroused resentment
In Bangkok. Thai officials asserted
they were given to understand the
United States stand was based on
the belief Thailand was working
with Japan to dismember Indo-
China.
Thai spokesman insisted their re-
quests to Vichy contained no threat
of force, that they were not acting
with Japan and that they had
merely concluded a non-aggreSsion
pact with Toxic.
The Thai government maintains
that when it signed a non-aggres-
sion past with France in June-be-
fore the French collapse in Europe
it did so on the understanding the
pact would pave the. way for gen.
eral REIMBURSEMENT of the Thailand-
Indo-China frontier.
The Thailand Foreign Office says
only that the matter has reached a
! diplomatic impasse" But the
peacetime defense force of about
10000 has been doubled and the
greater part of the army is deployed
along the Indo-China frontier.

Low-Cost Housing Will
Have Important Port
In Program

Five years ago the low-cost house
was a $1,000 house. 1t was at that
time practically unanimous opinion
of experienced builders that in the
larger cities no sound and salts
factory house for a normal sized
family could yet be produced for
less. But the low-cost house already
had become the new building from
tier. In five years the quest for
it has. in some localities at least,
cut the 1885 minimum almost In
two.
So in todays market how to build
low-priced homes has become a
question that interests men who
never before were interested in home
building. 1t will be double-spotted
on the program of the National
Association of Real Estate Boards
when that body meets in Philadel-
phia November 13, IA and Is for
its thirty-third annual convention.
At general sessions Fritz B. Burns,
builder of West Side Village, River

Crowds estimated to number
nearly 5000 already have visited
the ninth Silver Star Home of the

and furnished by Colony House.
Charm and efficiency are two out
