GENEVA, October 6.—The League of Nations Assembly today warned Japan of the possibility of international action unless she agrees to a peaceful nine-power settlement of the China conflict. The Assembly unanimously approved resolutions containing the warning. Poland and Siam abstained from voting, but their atti- tude did not prevent the unanimity, because states which abstain in voting are considered absent under Geneva practices. ’ Waves of applause broke over the assembly hall as Aga Khan, Assembly president, announced adoption of the resolutions which condemn Japan for invasion of China and provide for the confer- ence of nine-power signatories, including the United States, to the pact guaranteeing territorial (High sources in Washingt in a nine-power conference to integrity of China. on said American participation consider the Far Eastern con- flict virtually was assured by President Roosevelt’s statement of foreign policy yesterday.

The Aga Khan summed up the League’s work thus: “What present conditions allow sphere—it has done. “What those conditions allow 1t has done likewise. the League to do in the economic it to do in the political sphere— “Grasping at its opportunities and facing its responsibilities, it has set itself unflinchingly to those grave problems which today beset the international community.

By the Associated Press. : President Roosevelt’s call for “con- certed endeavors” in the interest of world peace paved the way today for American support of the League of Nations in its efforts to halt the undeclared war b-tween Japan and China, A high authority expressed this view In interpreting the President’s vig- orous statement of foreign policy at Chicago yesterday as a determined move to mobilize world opinion #gainst what Mr. Roosevelt termed the prevailing “reign of terror and international lawlessness.” There were strong indications the United States Government would up- hold the League’s stand on the Sino- Japanese conflict, at least to the ex- tent that it would throw its full moral support behind League action. Nine-Power Talk Urged. The League Advisory Committee at Geneva approved i resolution yester- ~ay recommending that signatories of the nine-power pact to preserve China’s territorial integrity meet as soon as possible. The proposal came before the League Assembly today. The resolution called Japan guilty of violating the nine-power treaty, the Boxer protocol for the protection of foreigners in China and the Briand-Kellogg pact outlawing war. In this respect it was strikingly like one section of Mr. Roosevelt's pronouncement at Chicago. He said some military actions were “definite violations” of agreements. While the President’s address was %0 broad as to apply to aggression in w58 specifically criticized nations “taking part in civil wars in nations that have never done them any harm,” its prin- cipal effect was regarded here as applying to the Far Eastern conflict. AGA KHAN. '~ (President of League.) WORLD REACTION ON PEACE STRONG [Nations Believe isolation Is Killed as Policy for U.S. BY CONSTANTINE BROWN. America has thrown her hat into the ring. This is the substance of comments which the State Department is receiv- ing from its diplomatic agents abroad who are reporting the impression cre- ated all over the world by President Roosevelt's Chicago speech. The reaction of democratic govern- ments, especially Great Britain and France, is of less importance. These governments have had an inkling that President Roosevelt would “do some- thing” for the preservation of world ace. Public opinion in these countries, however, feels bolstered by the fact that it believes the United States has thrown its “splendid isolation” over- board and is determined once more “to defend the cause of democracy.” They believe the mere indication that the United States will not remain impas- sive in the event the present situation continues will suffice to deter the dic- tators from further lawlessness. In the totalitarian states—Ger- many, Italy and Japan—Mr. Roose- velt's speech created a deep impres- sion. The dictators were firmly con- vinced that, whatever ma happen, (See COMMENT, Page A-5.) FINED IN BIRTH CONTROL BOSTON, October 6 (#).—Mrs. Linda Hawkridge of Newton, president of the Massachusetts Birth Control League, and Mrs. Caroline C. Davis of Boston, secretary, were fined $200 each today for violating State birth control laws. The women, both socially promi- nent, were specifically charged with circulating literature stating where information for prevention of preg- nancy might be obtained. Counsel for the women contended that since advice was given only under direction of physicians and only to married women there was no violation of State laws.

LONDON, October 6 (#).—The British government today granted Premier Mussolini only 24 hours more for reply to a Franco-British invitation to tri-power talks on the grave Spanish stiuation. With two wars threatening world peace, informed sources said the cabinet had agreed to wait no long- er in the face of what it considers sure evidence II Duce has sent more planes, as well as his son, to aid Insurgent Generalissimo Fran- cisco Franco in defiance of non- intervention pledges. By the Associated Press. President Roosevelt, in the view of other nations, has announced a new American policy of active co-operation to ‘establish world peace. The President, in his Chicagd speech yesterday, indicted aggression and treaty breakers and asserted “America actively engages in the search for peace.” Foreign nations today were quick to point to the address as intimation that the United States is ready to abandon her policy of neutrality, and to support world action to maintain peace. But they disagreed as to its feasibility. League of Nations spokesmen at Geneva considered the speech a timely Spur to League plans to summon signa- tories to the nine-power treaty into consultation to deal with the Sino- Japanese conflict. Britain’s Cabinet Considers Warfare. Britain’s cabinet met to consider both the Spanish and Oriental warfare, considering the President’s words to be an offer of co-operation in ending at least the Far Eastern conflict. Germany's foreign office, through its official newspaper, however, wanted to know exactly to which nations and treaties the President referred. If he wishes to take the initiative in improving world conditions, the Ger- man foreign office article said, the President should determine whether he “‘possesses strength enough actually to make justice triumphant in the world.” The paper warned the President to remember the ‘“shipwreck” of President Wilson when he sought to safeguard peace for all time through the League of Nations. Official Warning From Japan. Japan warned officially that peace may be “difficult to maintain” if de- mands of the nations which “have not” colonies and raw materials are ignored. President Roosevelt’s condemnation of aggression drew from Japan flat refusal to halt her military machine in China irr deference to world opinion. One of Japan’s highest naval offi- cials, taking the President’s Chicago speech as an obvious shaft at the Japanese military campaign in China, replied only with a promise the Japa- nese empire will throw all her re- sources into the undeclared Sino- Japanese war. - “We cannot stay our hands out of respect for a world opinion formed on the basis of dispatches rewritten by Chinese government officials,” he declared. “We believe the surest way to minimize suffering is to speed the conclusion. We will do everything possible to speed the end and bring the situation back to normal.” The Japanese foreign office spokes- man, also replying directly to .the American President, said that “the ideal of right as conceived by Western +Page A-19 | peoples is incompatible with that of the Orient.” He added that Japan's demand was that the Japanese people be per- mitted “to enjoy the freedom of move- ment and happiness which is right- fully theirs.” Harking back to the Japanese ex- clusion law passed by the United States in 1924, the spokesman char- acterized it as “one which is against the natural laws of mankind and is greatly deplored by the Japanese peo- “Japan’s population has doubled during the past 50 years.

By the Associated Press. HYDE PARK. N. Y., October 6.— President Roosevel today strongly in- dicated he would call a special session of Cangress to convene between No- vember 8 and 16, but said he would reserve decision until after conferences in Washington this week. In a long interview on the front porch of his Dutchess County home, at the end of his cross-country tour, he said it was a little premature to say Supreme Court reorganization would be included in his program. It was neither in nor out—was the | way he put it. He placed at the top of his program | wages and hours, surplus crop con- trol, Government reorganization and regional planning. Surrounded by his aged mother who just returned from a long vacation in | Europe, his wife and other members | of his family, the President unswered[ a barrage of questions on his trip and | future objectives. He refused to amplify his Chicago | speech in which he suggested a “quar- | antine” of aggressor nations and called | for “concerted” and “positive” action | by peaceful nations to restore world | stability. He said he had found very little in- terest among the people as to methods, when asked about court reform, but a great deal of interest in objectives. Says Quicker Justice Wanted. ‘The average man, he added, wanted quicker and cheaper justice. The im- | pression he got, he said, was that the | people felt maybe the President was right or wrong, but they wanted the objective he was after. He said the question of additional district judges, included in his original defeated court program and recom- mended favorably by the recent con- ference of senior Circuit Court jus- tices, would be one method he would discuss after returning to Washington Friday morning. Asked if he found any differense in the attitude of Congress and the peo- ple with whom he talked on the court, he said it depended on what attitude the questioner meant. . ~ 531 Different Attitudes. He added there were 435 attitudes in the House and 96 in the Senate. He said he did not want to speci- fy any date for a special session now, but suggested between November 8 and 16 would give Congress time to get most of its spade-work done before the Christmas holidays. The President said three fourths of the members of Congress with whom he talked favored a special session. At Grand Forks, N. Dak., he said speed was essential on surplus crop control legislation if 1938 crops were to benefit by the the new program. Asked his impressions of the 8,000~ mile transcontinental journey, the President said he found the crop sit- uation infinitely better West of the Mississippi than at any time in the last four years and an overwhelming (See ROOSEVELT, Page A-5.)

You can at least cease supplying the robber with the means of ravaging your neighbor's house.” India Boycott Aid Demanded.

COURT EXPUNGES DARBY REFERENCE Montgomery Judge Rules Jury Recommendation of Dismissal “Improper.” B a Btaff Correspondent ot The Star. ROCKVILLE, Md, October 6.— Judge Charles W. Woodward today granted the petition of C. Vaughan Darby to have all reference to the “county accountant, and, or, county auditor” stricken from the recent re- port of the grand jury. Without mentioning Darby by name the grand jury last week recommended that the “incumbent of the office of county accountant, and, or, county auritor” be dismissed after it had re- turned indictments against two county employes and two former county em- ployes on charges of embezzlement. ‘The court in granting Darby’s peti- tion declared he had warned the grand juries for the past five years against censuring individuals or groups and that it was empowered only to return either true bills or no bills in cases referred to it. The reference to the incumbent of the office of county auditor could mean no one but Darby, the court stated, and therefore should be ex- punged as “improper.” gy HUGE SUIT FACED BY WESTERN UNION Firm Under Federal Order to De- fend Action in Which Two Seek $30,610,000.
