Japan has sent formal warnings to both governments against acts re- garded as inimical to Japan’s in- terests. : To Chang Hseuh-liang, military governor of Manchuria, word went that he must not put the province under the domination of the Nanking Nationalist government. A note was sent the Nanking gov- ernment stating that unless the Na- tionalists change their attitude toward Japan’s interests in China “the Japanese government may be obliged to take such measures as it deems suitable for safeguarding rights and interests assured by the treaties.” Nanking has already notified Japan of its abrogation of commer- cial treating yranting extraterri- torial rights to Japanese. Japan’s claim that the abrogation is illegal has been ignored by Nanking. Premier Tanaka told the cabinet meeting that he had reliable in- formation that Chang Hsueh-liang and Chiang Kai-shek, Nationalist military commander, had worked out the draft of an agreement to extend the Nationalist rule into Manchuria. It is understood here that the agree ment gives Nanking control of Man- churian foreign relations, while granting Manchuria complete auton- omy in domestic affairs. Tapan fears that without the pro- tection afforded by present treaties its supplies of raw industrial materi- als from Manchuria will be cut off and that property and lives of its citizens in China will be endangered. WESTERN UNION LEASES WIRES New York, Aug. 9.—?)—The telegraphic service of the Western Union company has been vastly in- creased in message capacity as a result of several non-exclusive con- tracts entered into with the Ameri- ean Telephone and Telegraph com- pany. Among the contracts announced by President Walter S. Gifford of the Telephone company is one whereby Wes‘ern Union telegrams will be sent over the telephone wires simultaneously with telephone con- versations. Through the use of the existing telephone lines, it is pointed out, the Telegraph company will save large sums required in erecting new poles and stringing new wires, which is estimated to cost between $900 and $1,000 a mile. Another contract provides for the leasing by the Western Union of ap- paratus developed in the Bell Tele- phone laboratories for use on tele- graph circuits permitting several telegraphic messages to be sent simultaneously on the one wire. A third contract makes available to Western Union patrons the Tele- Phone company’s telephoto service for the sending of facsimile mes- sages.

(Editor’s Note—This is the second of a series of stories on the political situations in the | various states.) see Chicago, Aug. 9.—(4)—There is a catch in their throats as if appre- hension had curdled their confidence when the usual optimistic claims are made by Illinois Republican and Democratic leaders this year. Illinois, with a reputation for hav- ing been out of the republican column in the presidential electoral college only twice, is debatable ground for both the state and na- tional tickets. Behind the silence of those who vote without talking about it—or fail to vote—lies the ; Smith, even should Hoover’s farm stand fail to satisfy them. small cities and villages, not whol- !ly influenced by surrounding rural thought, the Hoover efficiency and his reputation as an administrator are expected to give him the edge over Smith. Smith’s Tammany affil- iations are being stressed there. The Republicans contend the wom- en’s vote in every section will go to Hoover, and that it will to a great extent offset the “wet” senti- ment in Chicago. Christian Temperance Union is par- ticularly active in behalf of the Re- publican national ticket. Virtually all of the leaders in the state, except Lowden In the The Women’s Republican | Over Score Trapped in Sunken Sub | Thirty-one men were trapped 130 feet below the surface in the sunken Italian submarine, F-14, pictured above, which went down after a collision with the Italian destroyer Giuseppe Missori in the Adriatic. ILLINOIS, USUALLY REPUBLICAN, DEBATABLE GROUND IN 1928 RACE and the Thompson faction, have ac- cepted the Hoover candidacy, which had but one supporter in the Kansas City delegation before Lowden with- drew. These include Louis L. Em- merson, candidate for governor; Otis F. Glenn, seeking election to the senate, and Mrs. Ruth Hanna Mc- Cormick, who aspires to a seat in congress. . Tilinois Democrats have no fac- tional troubles, and for the first time in several campaigns have per- fected organizations in iit county. Then, too, Illinois voted almost 2 to 1 in 1922 in favor of light wine and beer and leaders expect Smith’s attitude toward modification to swing some votes. Floyd E. Thompson, who resigned a place on the supreme court bench, is the Democrats’ candidate for gov- ernor. Thompson, living in a Re- publican district, has four tim been elected to office without a November decision in the debate. Prohibition and the farm situa- tion dwarf any other mentioned is- sues in the state. There is, of course, a religious element to be considered, bu. it scarcely is whis- pered. The line of religious cleav- age is the same as with other po- litical factors—the division between urban upstate and rural downstate, Chicago with its high percentage of catholics and rural Illinois chiefly protestant. Just how strongly the “wet” ele- ment in Cook county seat of Chi- cago, in Peoria, in East S. Louis and others of the larger cities, will fall in behind the modification ban- ner of Gov. Alfred £. Smith, largely will determine Illinois’ position after the vote counting next November. To effect this there will need to be wholesale defections from the Re- publican ranks as the state normally is republican by several hundred thousand. In 1912, when one group of Re- Sl ear followed Taft and another ‘oosevelt, Wilson carried the state. Cleveland won the state over Harri- son in 1892. Farm leaders declare the majority of Illinois farmers are indifferent to both Governor Smith, the demo- cratic presidential nominee, and Herbert Hoover, the Republican choice. Straw votes taken by agri- cultural publications bear this out. Mr. Hoover's references to farm re- lief in his speech of acceptance may change this situation, republican leaders say. The silence of Frank O. Lowden, former governor, who withdrew as a candidate at Kansas City after the convention approved the major- ity farm plank, has had an uneasy | effect upon the farmers. If there is apathy in the rural! regions, and farmers to any great! number remain away from the polls,! there is the possibility that urban) upstate will be able, for the first time, to outvote rural downstate.

This situation is expected to handi- cap both the national’ and state tickets.
