Secret Police Guarded
British ENJOYS Train

SOFIA, Bulgaria, March IL CP.-
If the bomb which exploded in
George w. Wendels hotel in Istan-
bull was planted on his car of the
British diplomatic train in Sofia,
the assassin took the lethal parcel
aboard through a squad of Gestapo
agents and Bulgarian secret police.
From 20 to 30 plainclothesmen
observed the departure of the Brit
ish diplomats special train from the
station platform Monday night.
Two special baggage cars had
been loaded late yesterday with his
trunks. The cars were on a siding
in a sparsely settled section of the
city between that time and the de-
parture in the late evening.

Only One Explosion.
Survivors declared they believed
the bomb had been placed aboard

timed TO explode in Turkey. They
agreed there had been only one eX-

bomb in the debris in the lobby and
said it might have been set off by
an acid fuse, rather than a mechan-

relations with Bulgaria last Wee

TOXIC, March 12.-French Indo-
China and Thailand have assured
Japan they have no intention Of
entering into any agreement with
any third power which might prove
inimical to Japanese interests, the
newspaper Asahi said today.
These assurances, Asahi declared
were delivered at Tokio's request
after the signing yesterday of
Japanese-negotiated treaty ending
the border dispute between Thailand
and do-China.
At the same time, French Ambas-
Sador Charles ArSene Henry was re-
ported to have delivered to the jap
anese Foreign Office note express
ing the expectation that Japan
strictly would observe terms of the
agreement last August 80 under
which japanese troops we're per-
mitted to enter Indo-China.

Dispatches from Batavia said OBJ

Thailand-Indo-China negotiations
Japan had taken a long step toward
establishment of the East Asia
sphere of "co-prosperity" of which
japanese expansionists have been
talking.
These sources regarded as rela-
lively unimportant the cession of
Indo-China border territories to
Thailand, but expressed concern
over the possibility that invisible
clauses in the treaty might give
Japan potential use of bases in the
two countries.

workingmen's colleges In England,
which are q recent innovation, a
student who may have been q maid

do no work while studying and she
has q maid and butler to wait upon
her while she is at the college.
Another interesting comparison
which Mrs. Slosson made was the
fact that English families which
can't afford TO send their children
TO college. or TO have q radio, a tele-
phone. or an automobile. neverthe-
less, will have servants. Maids
there receive only $3.50 q week and

five years before Americans would

time, morale is a factor and he
said he believed the morale in the

for dissatisfaction among soldiers,
