PLACE CHINESE CITY UNDER MARTIAL LAW Defiant Soldiers Oppose Inves- tigations of Japanese Druggist’s Killing Hong Kong, Scpt. 16.—(7)—Martial law was reported proclaimed in the southern city of Pakhol Wednesday | where defiant soldiers are opposing Japanese and Chinese investigations of | the killing of a Japanese druggist. {| Rebellious members of the old 19th! Chinese army, under the command of Gen. Oong Chao-Yuan, have refused to withdraw from the city to allow| inquiries ordered by the Tokyo and Nanking governments. | General Oong was declared to have stated his intention to resist landicg of the Japanese investigating com-j mission in the same manner his forces opposed Japanese attacks at Shanghai for more than three months in 1932. Fear was expressed in Chinese quarters that strengthened forces of | Japanese marines might attempt to} force the inquiry. ASK EVACUATION OF | 19TH ROUTE ARMY | Nanking, China, Sept. 16.—(?)}—Ja- | pan’s ambassador, Chigeru Kawagoe, tonight called upon Foreign Minister Chang Chun and asked that China evacuate the 19th route army “as soon as possible” from Pakhoi, where the historic defenders of Shanghai are re- ported blocking investigation of an anti-Japanese mob killing. His visit was regarded as an initial move to force Japanese investigation of the Pakhol killing of a Japanese resident, early this month.

From rural Burleigh county came word that farmers, forced off WPA jobs by Bismarck strikers who went out to them armed with clubs, were contemplating action of their own to get back on the WPA payroll. A pe- tition was in circulation in the rura? areas Tuesday asking Moodie to re- open the projects and was said to have been signed by more than 200 names. Favored Return to Work Gordon Moore, county WPA engi-/| neer, said he visited some of the projects Tuesday and that all of the men he met were in favor of going back to work and some of them were in favor of taking steps to force the qnd of the strike in order to do so. This fact, which was well known to Bismarck strike leaders. may have had considerable to do with the change in attitude of the strike agt- | tators.

That money now has all been expended. | For the first time since the relief | problem became acute the state now is wholly on its own with regard to| its share of the relief burden. Up) to now it has been spending a lot of federal money. In specific terms, the state wel- | fare board now has on hand $370,- | 000 to carry on its general relief work | until the legislature can meet and) make another appropriation, | Grants to the 53 counties in the state totalled $120,000 in September. On the basis of its present funds it can apportion about the same amount for October, November and December, trusting to the legislature } to make an emergency appropriation | for January. About Half of Last Year This is just about half of what the welfare board apportioned to the coun- ties last year when from $240,000 to {$250,000 a month was sent out. Comparison of conditions this com- ing winter with those which prevailed @ year ago give relief officials the jit- jters. Last year, while cash was scarce, miost people were successful with their |gardens, poultry atid stock. There \was plenty of hay. This year, not only the cash crop but the hay crop and incidental sources of income failed to jcome through. The result is that peo- {ple, especially those on the farms, will have to buy more of their necessities _ |than was true a year ago. With all the federal money spent, the welfare board must turn wholly to State sources of revenue. When the sales tax bill was passed, $100,000 a year was allotted to the lboard to finance old-age assistance and pensions for mothers and the 3 'blind, with $500,000 for general relief. Payment of old-age assistance be- gan in May and June and that drain alone will more than eat up the entire {$100,000 because the load is larger than |had been expected. It still is steadily increasing as moye old folks are put jon the list.

Greece turned to him nevertheless in 1926 and for the sixth time he became prime minister, a post he continued to hold in 1927 when a new government was formed. He was elected presi- dent of the republic on December 14, 1929, for a five-year term. 2nd Minneapolis Mill Opens in Strike Area Minneapolis, “sept. 16—()—The second of a number of flour and feed| \ mills closed as a result of the walk-| 5 BASTERN NORTH DAKOTA High- Low. at, 00, 100 a) 100 00, i333) «00!
