SHANGHAI, Noy. 24. — Flatly contradictory accounts reach here of what is going on in Manchuria as regards a settlement of the seizure of the Chinese Eastern. One ver- sion has it that Chang Hgueh-liang, Japan’s “governor” of Manchuria, is just about to propose direet nego- tiations with the Soviet Union be- cause of the wreck and ruin Man- churia is suffering by the isolation from the closing all traffic through the Soviet frontiers. & Another report states that Chang Worker-Peasant Revolution, the As- sociation of Revolutionary Cuban | Emigrants, the I.

To this, Ricardo Herrera, Ma- chado’s secretary, cabled a reply |that Machado, being informed of the protest, “has ordered an inves- | tigation.” But not only are the Chinese workers, whose arrest oc- curred at the instigation of the Havana Kuomintang, still held and | still marked for deportation, but a |native Cuban Negro, Santiago Brooks, has been assassinated by |Machado’s paid bloodhounds.
