By the Associated Press. HONGKONG, June 16.— Having heard that the Nationalist government was ralsing an $80,000,000 loan on the security of the 1932 customs surplus, the new Canton government today warned Shanghai bankers it would not recognize such a loan. Meanwhile the politic-military pot was kept simmering with reports that ernor of Kwangtung Province until the recent Southern uprising, had offered that his demands were such as to preclude acceptance by Canton. Hence | the terms were believed here to indicate his loyalty to the Nationalists, Gen, Chen reputedly demanded the re-establishment of his fiye ‘“peace preservation corps” regiment, which re- cently were disarmed, and the restora- tion of all Canton posts previously held by him and his followers. These posts now are held by the satellites of Koo Ying-Fan. Report Contradicted. Gen. Chen's position in the present political picture has been a matter of lpecuhuon since " he returned from Japan a few weeks ago. Upon resum- ing his command of two regiments and Province ostensibly would remain neutral upon receit payments from both the Canton an Nanking governments and would deme his L\me to fighting bandits and Com- munist uu 'eek it was announced Chen would remain loyal to the Nationalist cause. Shortly thercafter he allegedly notified Southern leaders he was ad- nnml-:‘ upon Canton with his army. Yesterday he asserted his misison was to fight Reds, thus contradicting the report he would move against the new Southern government. Canton Delays Operations.

They ordered the presentment | struck from the records. The judges, Guy L. Fake, William A. Clark and John Boyd Avis, told the jurors they had “transscended” their authority and declared the pres:ntment was “illogically conceived” and “sub- | versive of law and order.” Sees Two Sides to Issue. Ju@ige Fake, who read the opinion, said that in prohibition enforcement “the court finds itself in a position peculiar to that subject, a position | where it is called upon to mete out justice in cases where the parties on each side of the issue are representa- tive of groups which are equally con- vinced that the group on the other side | is lawless.” He added that on one side are those “who are intolerant of the national prohibition law and who would break down all other laws to violate it. On the other hand, we feel the pressure of those who are intolerant of all other laws to enforce it.” He said “if searches and seizures are made in violation of one’s constitu- tional rights as safeguarded under the fourth amendment, it becomes the duty of this couri, however unpopular such action may be, to suppress such evi- dence and thereby keep it away from the grand jury.” _ Pennington Testifles.
