China Needs Planes,
Guns and Tanks, Says
Industrial Aide
Cooperative Promoter
Holds Counteroffensive
Could Aid Britain

China needs only planes, guns and
tanks from America to make posi-
BILE counterattack against the Japa-
neSe Army, DR.. Henry Llang, pro-
motional director for the Chinese
Industrial Co-operatives, said here
yesterday in an interview. He Is
stopping at the Mayf1ower Hotel
during visit to this country in the
interest of raising money for the
cooperative undertaking.
DR.. Liang, who was educated as
a mechanical engineer and as a
journalist in the United States, said
he feared that if China continued
to lack the materials that would
make the counteroffensive possible,
then Japan might feel free to move
against Southeastern Asia, which is
a British stronghold. For that rea-
son, he suggested that aid to China
now is in truth aid to Britain.
The japanese troops in China
are listless and weary" he said.
1T is the time for us to strike. The
Chinese morale is high. China has
about 100000 troops in the field
and 100000 to 100000 more in
training"
DR.. Liang plans to return to New
York tomorrow.
The cooperative undertaking
which he represents is war-born
industry which he thinks may prove
of great value to the economy of post
war China. The industrial cooper
atives turn out goods made by 5Oo,-
600 workers, consumer goods mostly,
from matches to the machine guns
needed by the army. The first of
the co-operativeS was started two
years ago in Paocht in Shensi
Province.
The industries are protected from
war damage by the manner of their
diStribution-in the front area zone
mobile cooperative units only oper-
ate; in the middle zone, industries
requiring slightly heavier, but mo-
bile, machinery operate, and In the
rear are the big factories.

only a tapestried wall-hanging, She
turned-and confronted Vaslav.
He looked at her smilingly, his
black luminous eyes drinking in her
slender loveliness.
"Ah," he said, softly, you've dis
covered my little secret. Well g.
it was time" He touched the tap
estry, and it slid aside, revealing
narrow grilled door. This, too,
opened silently. "Will you please en!'
ter?" He bowed elaborately. Then,
as Brinda hesitated, Surely, you
will not deny me the pleasure of
satisfying your lovely curiosity, my
beautiful ballerina."
The Challenge Suffices.
The challenge suff1ced.
II never guessed there was a lift,"
remarked Brinda, smiling.
"A tiny one" said VaSlav, "but
large enough" He stepped in after
her, and the little house elevator Si-
lently assembled. MY private re-
treat" said the prince, opening the
door. "You are more than welcome"
Brinda's glance swept the room.
She saw the globe, the books, the
spacious lounge But there was no
trace of any wireless. Then she
realized the sound must have come
from somewhere else in the build
ing-some other room that also gave
on the elevator shaft.
Under Vaslav's gaze, she became
suddenly conscious of the complete
ness of their isolation from the outer
world.

one moment-just stand there-let
me look at you"
Without warning, his arms were
about her, holding her in a grip of
steel
She beat on his chest with her
firsts, but, from his superior height,
he looked down at her with a smile
that was a strange mixture of ten
derness and ferocity.
With one hand, he pinioned her
wrists; with the other, he bent back
her head. Deliberately. he kissed
her on the lips. She twisted her face
away, and his kisses fell hotly on her
cheeks and throat.
Even while hatred for VaSlav
surged through her, Brinda was con-
scious for the first time of fear
a dread doubt that she could not
defend herself. His voice was deep,
soothing. poSsessive.
Darling! 1 love you! Do you
understand? I worship you!"
For a swift instant, Brinda mar
veled that she could have been fool
ish enough to put herself in his

Jury-Fixing Case Witness
Taken for Ride in Own Car

CHICAGO, April Marvin E.
Olson, 40. an important witness in
a jury fix investigation in January,

saSsins in his own car last night.
The victim. was found slumped
over the steering wheel, his head
and body torn by shotgun and pistol
bullets. Witnesses said Olson's car,
containing two or three men, turned
into an alley few minutes before
the Staying.
In the dashboard compartment
police investigators found, among
other things, prayer book.
In an investigation following the
acquittal Of two political workers
charged with vote fraud, Olson tes-
titled that he bribed two women
jurors. Later he testified at the
jury fixing trial of four defendants,
all of whom were acquitted.
Investigators said there were no
clues to Olson's slayers.

she's true daughter of Mata Hari,

But he couldn't leave it at that.
He began pacing the long room.
Brinda! Little Brinda! Somehow,
he couldn't believe it. Should he
call her in and invite her to ex-
plain? No, that wouldn't do. If she
were spy-or if some clever fifth
columnist was using her as one
it would merely give them warn

Then he remembered-that benefit

unfinished But a little later, on
reaching his Office, he called in a
confidential aide and asked for
Prince Vaslav's file.
I'VE have none" said the aide
looking shocked. Don't you know"
He whispered the rest.
"Im aware of that" declared
Sanderson crisply. However, I'm
not interested in his royal connec-
tions or in who vouched for him.
I'm afraid there's been too much
of that in this country-as well as

better information when I ask
again"
Yes, sir" said the aide. II shall,

he meant it.

During weeks Of rehearsal, Brinda
seized every chance to become
familiar with the mysteries of Vas

there seemed to be soft-footed
servants everywhere. But she per-

afraid Afraid not only of Vas
Law, but of the unfamiliar impulses
that surged in her own being.
Unbidden, the thought came to
her: What would Mata Hari do?
And, instantly she knew-as surely
as though some one had whispered
the words in her ear.
Steel1ng herself, she returned his
kiss. She made her eyes languid,
compelled herself to smile.
You don't need to hold me-" she
whispered. Il shant run away"
You're sure?"
"Oh, yes, Vaslav-yes!"
Slowly, she relaxed his tight en-

intention, she moved swiftly, pur-
posefully. A bright object, thin and
pointed, flashed in her hand. On

Drdftee Charges
Officials MisIed
Appeal Board

Despite repeated requests of his
employers that he be deferred as
an essential defense production
worker, Simon Slutsky. die de-
Signer, reported at 8 a. m. today
for induction into the army.
SlutSky charged that an appeal
of his la rating was denied by
an appeal board headed by George
Z. Brand because of gross irreg-
ularity of procedure.
The irregularity, he charges,
consisted of the appeal boards
being informed he was not an
essential worker and that request
for deferment had been with
drawn.
SECRECY HALTED
H. 3. Frazier. chairman of Slut
sky's draft board, called Slutsky
"a - -- liar" and at first
refused information concerning his
case. Lieut.. Col Fred +. Thornton.
district draft chief. pointed out
that draft regulations forbid Sc
crecy and me fife WIS opened.
II revealed two letters from
J. II. Roesch. industrial relations
manager Of the Briggs Manufac-
turing Company citing SlutSky as
an essential employe. Pointing out
that Briggs is engaged IN mi++ts.Fs'
aircraft production, Roesch wrote .
"Mr. Slutsky's nduc lon
would seriously handicap get
ting out his work"
The record also shows, that
Roesch personally appeared before
the board 10 ask deferment for
the die designer. In his second
letter. Roesch referred 10 an in

of letter from Glenn Crissman.
