JAPANESE LEADER WON'T MOVE FORCE Honjo Says Conditions Are Not Safe Enough to With- draw His Troops. BY REGINALD SWEETLAND. By Cable to The Star. MUKDEN, Manchuria, November 9. —Japan has no intention of with- drawing her troops from their present positions outside the Manchurian rail- Toad zone regardless of whether or not the League of Nations set November 16 as the definite date for their re- moval. Present conditions in the in- terior of Manchuria make such & withdrawal impossible. Such is the unmistakable impression gathered in an exclusive interview with Gen. Honjo, commander in chief of the Manchurian troops. Gen. Honjo said: “Conditions are such that no date ean be definitely set for withdrawal of the troops. OWing to the increasing danger of banditry, Japan has not enough soldiers here to be of proper protection for Japanese and Koreans living in Manchuria.” Silent on Movement. Gen. Honjo declined as to delicate @ question at this time to state whether Japan intended crossing the Chinese Eastern Railway into Tsitsihar to clear out the Chinese troops which have been fighting the Japanese along the Nonni River “As soon as the situation clears up Japan will withdraw her first-line troops now operating outside the rail- road zone,” he said. Poring over maps, Gen. Honjo, clad in an olive drab uniform and wearing as insignia only the silver star worn by all graduates of the Imperial War Col- lege. stressed the increasing threat from bandits operating *in groups of from 800 to 1,000 strong. The tendency of these bands, ac- cording to Gen. Honjo, is to amalga- mate their forces, Gen. Honjo declares that 13,600 Jap- anese troops are now in Manchuria, but he is unable to say offhand how man of these are operating outside the rail- | way zone. This interview was held in the Orien- tal Cultures Buiiding of the Japanese, which is the center of the Japanese section in Mukden. Almost & comedy touch was given the affair when I was taken from my hotel and privately driven directly across the street to the building facing the hotel. Children Send Gifts. A single khaki-clad soldier, behind sand bags, guards the entrance to the long concrete corridors. Japanese soldiers are carrying huge wicker clothes baskets loaded with packages of candies, cigarettes, pencils and writing tablets as presents for the troops from school children throughout Japan. Huge prize chrysanthemums Batsuma vae decorate Gen. office on the second floor. Following the interview Gen. Honjo's chief of staff conducted me through a hall on the top floor, where were dis: played photograpl text books, rifles and shells—provocative of incidents and materials which led Japan to take the present aggressive step. Scores of anti-Japanese posters, slogans and other material are display- ed, including recent posters urgng the Chinese to make friends wi*h the Japanese. Fifty cars of Chinese infantry, with two armored cars and 900,000 rounds of ammunition, are reported to be en route from Harbin to reinforce the Chinese at Tsitsihar, Mukden gives all the appearance of being considerably bored with the no- torjety it has received since the Jap- anese occuvled it under fire the night of September 18, Drinks Toast to Soviet. A happy break in the boredom came over the week end, when leading Chi- mese and Japapese officials and repre- sentatives of other nations, except the United States, gathered at the Soviet consulate to drink a toast to the suc- cess of the Soviet government on its | 14th anniversary. In the background, silent and in- scutable, were the new Chinese mem- bers of what Japan believes to be the de facto provincial government, headed by an old-time scholar of the ancient classical school, Yuan Chin-Kai, and the new mayor, who was groomed for the job by the Japanese. The ts . in Russian, was translated into Chinese as a courtesy to the soil on which it was drunk. No speech was made in respon: Few Japanese troops are seen on the streets, but officials say that between 50 and 100 are inside the walled city. Oc- casionally along the streets one finds & few oil drums on which sandbags are piled. Behind these stand khaki-uni- formed Japanese soldiers with tin hats of the German model. Police Are Chinese.

BY CONSTANTINE BROWN. In spite of the threatening situation in the Far East, the State Department still believes that the Jepanese govern- ment ultimately will comply with the request of the Council of the League of Nations and of the United States Gov- ernment to cease hostilities in Man- churia. Of course, it is fully realized that the recent Japancse move is not due to any unforeseen contingency, but is the re- sult of a well planned line of action of the Japanese general staff. The Jap- anese are carerul and astute diplomats, and_they would not embark into any warlike adventure without having well considered beforehand the consequences of their action. But once the situation | is well examined they proceed with clocklike exactitude, and it would take a powerful and concerted effort of all | civilized nations to induce Japan to withdraw from its present position. For the time being two actions are considered possible to bring the Japa- nese to realize the importance of the engagements they took when they signed the various pacts which insured China's territorial integrity and bind | Japan not to try to settle a dispute by | ‘The first action would be a diplomatic boycott: the other would bé an_ economic boycott. The principal world powers would join in the first while China alone is likely to exercise the second. if the Japanese government continues to disregard the request of the Council of the League of Nations and of the United States to withdraw its troops from Manchuria, it may be put in.a position similar tg that of Serbia some 30 years ago, when a group of Serbian officers, dissatisfied with the rule of the then King Alexander Obrenovitch, in- vaded the royal palace, massacred the King and the Queen and brought to the throne the present Karageorgevitch dy- nasty.

This drastic measure has been sug- gested from Europe to be taken against Japan, if the Emperor's general staff continues to flaunt the repeated warn- ings and reguests of the civilized world to withdraw the Japanese troops from Manchyria. ‘The Department of State is’ still of the opinion that such an action will not be necessary and consequently has not given any thought to the unofficial suggestion which has come from Geneva. There is every probability, however, that should the Japanese prove as adamant as heretofore, some drastic* action will have to be taken to save the prestige of the League of Naticns and to prove that the Kellogg pact is not a mere scrap of paper. A withdrawal of the Ambassadors of the leading powers, while not affecting the commercial relations between Japan and the other powers, would mean an insult which the proud Japanese Em- pire cannot easily afford. Such a measure is not provided in any international treaty; the League of Nations statute provided for an eco- nomic boycott in case a member re- | fuses to abide by the decisions of the council. Such a boycott by the European powers and by the United | States cannot prove effective, nor doer it appear advisable. An effective boycott of Japan can and is at the present moment exercised by the Chinese people themselves. This boycott, it is believed, will prove in the end much more effective than any eco- nomic measures any outside power may {3 China s completely disorganized; all the ancient organizations have collapsed except one, the Chincse Merchants and Workers Guilds.

Japanese merchants, who live in great numbers throughout China, and are making a good living, have been compelled to close their stores and leave the Chinese territory. Chinese merchants who are still doing an important trade with the Test of the world have withdrawn their patronage from the Japancse transport lines and are sending their goods in British and American bottoms. Anglo-U. S. Trade Benefits. China is one of the most important customers of Japan because it can sell manufactured goods at a lower rate than any other country in the world. Chinese merchants, obeying the or- ders of their guilds, have canceled the orders from Japan and are placing them with British, American and French export houses. The same thing applies to the ra: material which Japan needs and is buying in large quantities from China. The Chinese exporters Tefuse to accept orders from Japan, and prefer to keep their goods in warehouses than sell them to the nation which is now trying to take away from them one of the richest and most important provinces. The Japanese merchants and indus- trialists are severely hit, and it is_be- lieved in well informed quarters here that the reaction of the Japanese busi- ness men will be such that even the powerful military caste will be com- pelled to vield and begin to realize that the Japanese general staff has over- played its hand. DECLINE PREDICTED IN DEMAND FOR 0OIL Decrease in Number of Motor Ve- hicles Expected to Reduce Con sumption in Next 8 Months. By the Assoctated Press. Declines in the demand for motor fuel and crude oil from October 1 to June 30, 1932, were predicted today by the Volunteer Committee on Pe- troleum Economics. Its estimate, given Secretary of the | Interior Wilbur, chairman of the Oil Conservation Board, fixed the de- mand for motor fuel at 322635000 barrels, 1.6 per cent less than for the same period ending June 30, 1931, when 327,889,000 barrels were used. The demand for crude oil was placed at 678,000,000 barrels, 2.1 per cent less than the demand for the period end- ing June 30, 1931, when 692,442,000 barrels had been consumed. The Volunteer Committee is com- of E. B, Swanson, chief econo- mist of the petroleum division of the Bureau of Mines; John W. Frey of the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic | Commerce, Martin Van Couvering, pe- | troleum engineer of Los Angeles: Al- {fred G. White, National Industrial | Conference Board, New York City, and Howard Bennette, Western Petroleum Refiners’ Association. ‘The committee said the decrease in motor fuel demand would result from a similar decrease in the number of motor vehicles in use. General business conditions, the re- | port said, directly influence motor fuel | consumption more by limiting normal | growth in demand than by causing any | sharp decline from vehicles already in use.

Mah preparatory to attacking the Japanese at a point not designated. Minister of War Minami postponed his departure for the military ma- neuvers at Kyushiu because of the situ- stion at Tahsing and the trouble at Tientsin. According to the Japanese war office, the trouble at Tientsin was caused by a crowd of rioters calling themselves the National Relief Corps, a body op- posed to the Manchurian Governor. The war office here said this group clashed with Chinese soldier guards in | various sections of the native part of the city and that the fgntirg reached the border of the Japanese concession. Garrison Stands By. The Japanese garrison was ordered to stand by to pretect the 5850 Japa- rese residents. One Japanese soldier was shot and killed by a stray bullet. A dispatch from Tientsin early today said the Japanese commander had not vet determined the cause of the out- | break. “There are no signs,” said the war office, “of either the (Chinese) govern- ment or riotous troops assuming the | offensive against Japanese solders at | present, but the Japanese, nevertheless, | are prepared to meet any emergency.” A message from the Japanese com- | mander at Tientsin said the disturbance appeared to be due to “China’s in- | ternal troubles, in which Japanese mili- tary authorities have no intention to interfere. The garrison accordingly is observing strict neutrality.” The war minister suggested that, in the event future developments should require it, an international army be organized in the Chinese city to pro- tect foreign residents. Peace Talk Hoped For. A faint hope was sensed in official circles here that conversations in Paris between Aristide Briand, chairman of the Leageu of Nations Council, and Kenkichi Yoshizawa, Japanese repre- sentative in the League, might open the way toward peace. It was said, however, that the con- versations could be successful only “if Briand comes around to see our view- point.” According to the reports here, Briand | indicated a willingness to consider | Japan's contentions. t was authoritatively stated, how- ever, that there was only the barest possibility so far of any compromise, | the stumbling block being the evacu: tion of Japanese troops from Man- churian points outside the Japanese- operated South Manchurian Railway. | - Reports that League members might ‘with®aw their diplomatic representa- | tives from Japan as a means to coerce | the latter into withdrawing her troops | from Manchuria were looked upon by | the Tokio foreign office as nonsensical | propaganda. | ‘This matter probably will be taken | up with Sir Eric Drummond, secretary | general of the League of Nations, in| the form of & protest, as it appeared | here that the reports of suggested dip- lomatic withdrawal emanated from | persons connected with the League secretariat.

American Missionaries Ask Guard as They Evacuate Station. TIENTSIN, November 9 (#).—The 15th United States Infantry and troops of other foreign countries were stand- ing by here today and Chinese troops from Lang Fang and other garrison centers were reported rushing to this city following riots last night between the Japanese concession and the Chi- nese city. Tientsin itself is virtually isolated. American missionaries occupying the mission which stands half way between | the Japanese barracks and the south | city aplied for an escort to enable them | to evacuate their exposed position safely. Concession Is Barricaded. Chinese officials claimed to have un- covered a plot with the arrest of eight | men in civilian clothes last night before the rioting began. The men, they said, were captured in the east suburbs ad- joining another part of the Japanese concession and the arrest forewarned Chinese officials, who Immediately called out the troops, police and militia and barricaded the entrance to the con- cession. The eight arrested, they said, are af- filiated with the Cu-Man-Fuites, who have been holding nightly conferences at the home of Wu Kwangl-Sing, plot- ting the overthrow of Chang Hsueh- Liang and the substitution of a gov- rnment friendly to Japan. eréhin:w declare nearly 2,000 rebels gathered on the wain road leading from the Japanese concession to the city be- fore the rioting began. The city au- thorities, they said, made & show of re- sistance and this caused the rioters to change their plans and to decide to at- tack from the suburbs as well as from the concession. The rioters, they said, were all se- creted inside the concession and di- rected their attack against the south gate, which they took at 1 am. The scattered firing during the night awoke inhabitants of the Chinese city, but they at first believed it to be Japanese | night maneuvers in the concession. Prepare for New Attack. Chinese officials, fearing a renewal of the attack tonight, made preparations for resistance. It appears that during the exchange | of shots between police and rebels two | in their own bar-| racks were killed by stray bullets and | the Japanese miiitary demanded that| the Chinese police withdraw to a point | 300 meters from the Sino-Japanese| boundary. The Chinese asked for a half hour ia which to comply, but were unable to carry out the mcvement in the required | time, and it is cnaiged a Japanese tank opened fire on the police.

SHANGHAI, November 9 (#)—Riot- ing, described by Chinese as having been instigated under Japanese direc- tion as a rebellion against the Chinese | government, held the native city of | Tientsin, North China, in a panicky | grip early today, necessitating the call- | ing out of American and other foreign troops to protect the international sec- | tions of the city. Unconfirmed Chinese advices said CROSNERS NOVEMBER 9, 1931. vere fighting broke out yesterday, and was continuing early today, resulting in many deaths.

Chinese advices said Chang Hsueh- Cheng, & cousin of the Chinese gov- ernor of Manchuria, Chang Hsueh- Liang, "kg fl’la rioters against Chinese troops and police.” Tientsin authorities were described as having been aware of a plot to cause disorders, but did not expect such mass attacks as were made, and had no in- formation that the rioters would be equipped with “modern arms.” PE?PING. November 9 (#).—Chinese official dispatches from Tientsin said Japanese iroops rained a bombard- ment of 40 shells on the Chinese-sec- tion of the city this morning. Four Chinese werc killed and 10 wounded in the bombardment. The shelling was said to have followed a refusal of Gen. Wang Shu-Chang, chairman of the inese provincial government, to accede to a demand from the Japanese garrison commander that all Chinese troops be wiithdrawn a distance of 300 yards from the Japanese concession boundary. In refusing to comply with the Japanese demand to withdraw his troops, Gen. Wang is said to have de- clared such a move was impossible as long as mobs of rioters from the con- cession were still attacking police. The Japanese order was issued at 4 am. It was repeated at 6 and the bombardment began at 7. All fighting had ceased an hour after the shelling this morning, the dis- patches said, and Chinese troops took over control of the city from police.
