The inquiries probably will be mld‘ through Foreign Minister Byiand France, President of the Council of the League of Nations, through whom the five nations acted in calling upon the United States and other signatories to follow their example in dispatching to Japan and China notes reminding them | of their obligations under the pact. At the time the American note was | sent officials said they had no objection to making public the text. but were re- fraining because the five countries which took the initiative had not chosen to do so. The subsequent replies of Japan and China also were kept secret by State Department officials on the ground that replies should not be made public when the original message had been kept secret. The Chinese note, however, was given out in full text at the Chinese legation here. Note Recalled Pledge.

'NAN BRITTON NAMED IN DIVORCE RECORDS Suit Revealed at Trial of ”0,000 Libel Charge Against Marion ‘ Man. i | | | [ [ By the Associated Press. | TOLEDO, Ohio, October 29.—Records introduced in Federal Court yesterday in Nan Britton’s $50,000 libel suit against C. A. Klunk, Marion Hotel oper- | ator, for defamation of character, re- vealed the author of “The President’s Daughter” was named as co-respondent in divorce proceedings instituted by the wife of Richard M. Whiteman, New York | Whiteman, according to the petition | of his wife, Patricia, was actual author of the plaintifi's book, or in literary parlance was “ghost writer” for Nan Britton. The records were part of the de- fense’s efforts to prove the plaintiff’s character had not been injured by pub- lication of the book, “The Answer to the President’s Daughter,” which Klunk | advertised and sold at his hotel. | Among character witnesses, testitying | against the plaintifi’s reputation, wm‘ Mrs. Mildred Christian Roberts; sister of George B, Christian, jr., secretary to | former President Warren G. Harding; | Mrs. Helen Grisby, Ellen L. Stahl and | Mary Catherine Hague, former school: mates of Nan Britton under the tute- ‘me of Daisy Harding, sister of the former President. Elizabeth Ann, the plaintiff's 12-year- old daughter, was not in court. clally confirmed here, that Japan has demanded a cessation of bolshevik mo- gxlnuon along the Manchurian fron- | T. Soviet officlals, who hitherto purred | like cats at the possibility that the Japanese’s cool taking possession of | the railways could lead to trouble with | the United States, lost their serenity when it became known that the Jap- | anese were now beginning to treat the Russians with the same lack of polite- | ness as they had been showing to the | Test of the world. It has been believed here that the | Japanese Ambassador at Moscow, Koki | Hirota, two months ago assured the| Russians the Japanese would in no way | seek to infringe upon the Chinese East- ern Railway, which is half Chinese and half Bolshevik. The Japanese hitherto have kept south of Harbin in what is considered their sphere of influence, allowing the Bolsheviks to control the northern half. The Germans have suspected that the | entire Japanese movement was part of | a plan to divide Chinese Manchuria with the Bolsheviks But today either the two countries are playing comedy roles with consummate skill and pretending hostility where none exists or the Japanese have suc- | ceeded in making the Russians angry | by claiming to decide what the Russian troops shall do on Russian soil behind | the frontier, which is not even .np-- nese The Russians admit they have shifted ‘ few troop formations, but deny that have carried out anything like a centration of troops, and their reac- | to the Japanese demands sounds | e sincere indignation. | (Copyright. 1931.)

THOMAS, Virgin Islands (#)— virgin Island producers of bay rum have entered a protest before J. M.

Yet, the league continues, “within five months the White House President 5 of the 15 cruisers Congress ¥ | ordered be bullt on a definite time | schedule—and he did this as a friendly | gesture preparatory to, naval confer- ence he proposed, a gesture that was not | Commensurately copied by other pros- pective participants, although, When | judged by treaty ratios, they greatly excelled us in under-age ships built and building.” Kept Rapidan Record Secret. “The President’s initiative for a con- ference led to his conversations at the Rapidan with the British prime min- ister, which, admittedly, reached agree- ments that have never officially been | divuiged in their entirety, which sug- | gests why the administration rei to | allow even an executive session of the | Senate Committee on Foreign Relations | to see the full record of its negotiations |and possible commitments preparatory ‘m the London Naval Conference of | 1930.” With reference to the unemployment situation, the league says: ¥A% the. administration, when seek- ing ragification of its London treaty, had implied that the principal purpose thereof was to give the United States a chance to catch up—at a cost of admittedly more than a billion dollars— it seems mmme to point out that the Navy in advocating a much more moderate” program than that called for by the administration’s treaty, has_sacted/with a restraint not supposed to be characteristic. of that mythical ‘blg navy’ group which the administra- tion apparently delights. in holding up the public opprobrium.
