NEW PEACE CALL FROM HOLLAND
Continued from Page l)

After calling on the Dutch to en- dure sacrifices and increase their defensive strength, Kliffens sounded what was regarded as g. warning to possible aggressors in Europe and indirectly to Japan.
 ". As long as the nation is willing to give up everything for the integrity of its territory and its independence no big power can al- low itself to see our territory in other hands in Europe or Asia" Kleffens said.
 Holland must sail her ships. We must trade. We must offer our serv- ices to others. Otherwise our peo- pie cannot exist. Countries which act against their enemies and in so doing hurt our trade must not for- get this. We shall have to show that we are a nation full of vitality.
 foreigners should watch our de- fense works or our work in the Netherlands Indies. They should watch us in our sports, whether 1t be sailing or four day marches.
 we hope, however, that sane views and sensible guidance, prob- ably also necessity, soon will cause reaction in the world so that tie barriers which also cripple our na- tion will be pulled down. For this it is necessary, in the first place, that each understand the others difhculties."
 Kleffens told parliament that Hol- land should remain member of the league of nations. He indicated that the Netherlands had not been discouraged by the failure of peace efforts started by Queen Wilhelinina and King Leopold of the Belgians. If Holland can help other na- tions start negotiations 1t will do SO, as it proved with Belgium" he said. But Holland does not want to push itself. If the nations do not need our help to find each other it is all right as far as we are concerned.
 "1n some foreign papers everybody who dares talk peace is accused of acting under the influence of some war-wcary belligerent but I think this should keep nobody from con- tributing his bit to the salvation and well being of the western world"

 One package found In the United States mails contained a $32, ,000 con- signment of pearls sent from Japan, the spokesman said. Other packages had drugs, machine parts, electrical instruments, films and cameras, ad- dressed to Germany.
 A typical situation, he said. was the interception of 4,462 packages addressed to Germany from six ships, including two American ships, in one month. All but 3so of the packages were contraband, he said.

 Day-tO-Day Basis
 Trade with the United States went went on day-to-day basis at mid- night (10 a. m. EST.) according to the Japanese foreign office view of the United States denunciation of the treaty. Qn Washington, it was said that officials regarded the de- nunciation a3 effective at 12:01 a. m. Saturday instead of 12:0l a. m. Friday.
 Regardless of the exact hour of expiration of the treaty, there was increasing speculation among Ja- panese bushes men as to the dan- ger of future embargo measures by the United States, which is viewed here as seeking to bring about modi- flcation of the Japanese program for 8 "New Order" in East Asia. Busi- ness men privately expressed belief that such measures by Washing ton would be certain to bring about reprisals in the Far East against the United States.
 In that connection, Gen. Masa- haru Homma, commander -chiet of the Japanese army in north China, declared in Tientsin that Ja- pan must reconsider appropriate steps" if the United States fails to respond to the good will efforts of Japan. The Japanese military in north China recently has been in serious dispute with Great Britain and for many days blockaded the British concession at Tientsn.
 Reopen Diet Earlier
 Parliamentary sources said that a movement was gaining ground among members of the Diet for re- opening the session early next keeA instead of on the scheduled date of Jan. 31. The purpose would be tc deal with dispute with Great Brit. ain over seizure of German seaman from Japanese liner Asma Maru as well as other problems.
 Yoshisada Watabe, master of the Asma Maru, was placed on the re. tired list by the NIX steamship line, presumably as result of the incident in which the Germans wert removed from his ship.

 wang had been calculated to be uarticularly valuable to Japan be- cause imperial announcements, re- Qarded here as irrevocable, have put Japan on record as refusing to negotiate with the Chinese govern- ment under GeneralsSimo Chiann Kai-Shek.
 It was suggested by informants here that but for the consistently, firm American policy, Wang might have attracted some leaders now supporting Chiang Kai-Shek. It was because of this feeling that for the last two months Chinese news papers have given prominence to Japanese-American developments.
 Chan Kunh-Po, Tao Hsi-Sung and Kao Tsung-Wu, three of six influential Chinese supporting Wang, already have deserted him Kao and Tao issued statement as- serting that his peace terms" with Japan were more exorbitant than any yet made and that they would practically reduce China to Jap anese dependency.
 Wang had tried to keep his peace terms secret, and his owE newspa- per. the Central China Daily News of Shanghai, admitted that peace would mean losses for China and went on to say that humiliation was better than a Japanese victory and subjugation.
 Both Japanese and American cir- cles in China looked forward to a deterioration of Japanese-Amer- ican relations, on the ground that their positions on far eastern poli- cy were so completely incompatible as to leave little hope for tmme- diate improvement.
 A vigorous statement by Gen Masaharu Homma, Japanese corn- mander in chief in the Tsingtao area, given to the United Press at Tsingtao, was taken to mean that Japanese officers foresee an embar- 20 by the United States and are considering the possibility of re- taliation.
