THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHI ADDITIONS TO WHITE HOUSE KENNELS MANCHURIAN ARMY 'TOBEKERT INTACT I Soviet Leader Tells Congress 'Peace, However, Will Be Government’s Aim. | B the Associated Press. MOSCOW, September 21.—Alexei I Rykoff, president of the Council nf Pec- | ple’s Commissars, in & ringing address ,tonight to the First Moscow Regional Congress of Soviets stated that the So- viet government was prepared to main- tain its army throughout the Winter on the Manchurian border, but would not resort to hostilities as long as possibility of peaceful settlement existed. “We have a specially organised and powerful army in Winter quarters on + the Chinese border in full readiness for any eventuality,” he said, “but we shall not call it into full action as long as the slightest chance exists for peaceful settlement of the conflict over the Chi- nese Eastern Railway. May Reinforce Troops. “We shall not recall the army of Gen, Vassili Blucher with the coming of Autumn. We shall, if necessary, rein- force it and bri it to a point of hostilities as a5 & pos- sibility for peaceful settlement exists. “We shall not accept the conditions of Nanking, which_would be tantamount to s Soviet surrender to Chinese gen- erals.” i The speech of the president of the Soviet union was received with thun- derous cheers. ' Rykoff stated that a memorandum given the United States Government by Ambassador O. C. Wu setting forth the reasons for the ex- pulsion of Russian employes of the raii- road was based on forgeries alleged to have been found during a raid on the Soviet consulate in Harbin. He said that the memorandum contained most absurd and nonsensical statements. Says Notes Ignored. The president declared that resort by Nanking to “extraordinary athroci- ties and abuses of Soviet citizens would not force the Soviet government from its position with regard to the rail- way.” He added that the Chinese ! government had repeatedly ignored Soviet notes protesting treatment of its_nationals. Rykoff stated that a telegram from Mme. Sun Yat Sen, widow of the founder of the Chinese Republic, to the Anti-Imperialist League showed | that large sections of the Chinese pub- lic did not support the stand taken by the Nanking government. { "“The conditions of Nanking" he went on, “offer no basis for settle- ment of the controversy because China wishes to retain a position captured by force and by unexplained violation o{ the first and only treaty of equality voluntarily concluded by China with | the Soviét government. We still in- sist as & minimum upon appointment of a new Soviet manager and assistant manager of the Chinese Eastern Rail- way, provided the Chinese appoint a | new chairman to the board of direc- tors. If the Chincse reject this minimum, it means that they do not | seek peace.” FOUR ATTACKS REPORTED. Desultory Fighting Continues Ahn" Russo-Chinese Border. | MOSCOW, September 21 (#).—Des- | ultory hting continues along the | Russo-Chinese borders in Manchuria, and in the meantime the great strategic Chinese Eastern Railway, linking Soviet Union with the Far East, is all but idle. ‘While Moscow is waiting.for the next move from the Nanking diplomats in the long dispute over the control and operation of the voad, Chinese troops, supported by white Russian irregulars, continue guerrila warfare in thilrm where the Chinese part of the line joins with the Russian. ‘Within the past 48 hours four such attacks were reported. In the village of Abagatuevsky Chinese soldiers kept up continuous fire on Russian automobile transports until they were driven off. At Pogranichnaya Chinese attacked | Soviet frontier guards with rifle and machine in fire. According to a Khabarovsk dispatch, Chinese military authorities in Michan district, 15 miles west of Lake Hanka, have formed a large, well armed band of white guards for a surprise attack on Russian soil. The dispatch added that red army forces had taken measures to prevent the raid. A telegram from Viadivostok said white guard raiders who had been mak- ing incursions into BSoviet territory since September 11 were beaten off yes- terday and some of them captured. These testified that the band was or- ganized at Harbin by a Russian general | on instructions from Manchurian au- thorities. Most of the members were former czarist and kill the people in Soviet villages. st S0 KING PINS ANNEX INTERCITY MATCH Drop Final Block to Bnltingoni But Wins Outs by Total of 19 Pins, - Despite that the Bowling Center fi of Baltimore defeated the 'King team of this city by seven pins in the final block of ‘their home-ard-home series last night on the Lucky Strike alleys, the District team won the se- ries by 19 pins, as they gained an ad- vantage of 27 in the opening block of the competition rolled recently in Bal- ore, .

THREE DOGS ADDED 10 HOOVER KENNEL Two English Setters and Es- kimo Puppy Are Presented to President. Three dogs have been added to the ‘White House kennels in the last two days—two pedigreed English setters, nearly full grown, and an Eskimo hound of the kind used by natives in Alaska for sled teams, ‘The setters, brother and sister, won nidmerous prizes during the brief mriod they were in contests before com- g to the White House. They are di- rect descendants of the famous South- boro S8avanna, international champion English setter. - They are said to have been well schooled for bird shooting, but inasmuch as the President does not include hunting in his outdoor recrea- tion it is doubtful if the honor of flushing or pointing birds for the Chief Executive will ever fall to them. The setters were presented Mr. Hoover by D. C. Kok, dog fancler of Palo Alto, Calif.,, who bred and trained them.

MEXICO CITY, September 21.—Five points of miajor importance are listed in the government’s program of public instruction, as outlined by Ezequicl Padilla, secretary of education, to the national teachers’ convention here. Preparation for the working classes | to resist abuse by big industry, war on | religious fanaticism and defense of the freedom of thought doctrine, intensifi- | cation of physical training and devel- opment of sports, an offensive against aleoholism and concentration on the awakening of a spirit of optimism in the people are the pillars of the gov- ernment'’s program. To Abolish Illiteracy. Tlliteracy must be wiped out to fit the working classes for the “dramatic race” which is going on between labor and big industry in Mexico, Padilla de- clared. The Mexican school cannot sustain dogmatic religions, Padills said. “There can be no religion in the Mexican school but that of work, social justice and human fraternity.” The school must eternally combat religious fanati- cism and preach freedom of thought. Physical Training Necessary. Physical training and development of sports of all kinds are as necessary in Mexico as-the three R's, and this work should be complemented by a ceaseless campaign against the drink habit, which he termed the country's greatest evil. ‘The spirit of discouragement so common in Mexico should be con- fronted by instilling into the school children an attitude of optimism, based on the confidence that equal oppor- tunity is to be given to all clases and the assurance that the country’s fue ture lies in the hands of the masses.
