BACKGROUND— Undeclared Sino-Japanese war started July 7 as result of clash of troops at Marco Polo Bridge near Peiping and spread to Shanghai August 9 as result of killing of two Japanese at airdrome there. Japanese have made little headway in attempt to capture Shanghai, but in north troops have progressed southward, eastward and into northwest Province of Suiyuan. Nipponese attack shifted to air after troops had met stone wall of Chinese resistance. By the Assoclated Press. SHANGHALI, October 6.—The Japa- nese advance on all China fronts from Shanghai to the far north was re- ported today to have been halted by stiffened Chinese resistance. In the Shanghai sector, the repeated Japanese thrusts against the 25-mile line running northwest from the North | Station were beaten back by sheer | force of numbers in hand-to-hand | combat. | Far to the North in the strategically more important operations in the rich | provinces of Hopeh and Shantung, | reliable foreign reports bore out the Chinese claim that Japan's push had been stopped. Tsinanfu Reported Attacked. In the eastern sector of the North China war zone, Japanese claimed that their strongly mechanized column had invaded Shantung Province completed the capture of the walled city of Techow and was pressing on against Tsinanfu, the provincial capital. Correspondents for the Associated Press, and other foreign observers at Tsinanfu reported, however, that a vigorous €hinese counter-attack had forced the Japanese to abandon their siege of Techow and retreat to the north, The Shantung legions of Gen. Han Fu-chu were streaming norh and for- eigners resident in Tsinanfu declared they felt no anxiety. Paotingfu Relay Reported. Farther inland, the Japanese column advancing along the railroad from Peiping to Hankow was said to have been outflanked at Paotingfu, the cap- tured capital of Hopeh Province. Foreign reports agreed with Chinese that the Japanese push had been slowed up at Paotingfu and that strong Chinese units were striking at the flanks of the 80-mile-long Japa- Tnese line of communications to Peip- | ing. Informed Chinese and Japanese cir- cles in Peiping reported that Japan planned to form the five North China provinces of Hopeh, Shantung, Chahar, | Suiyuan and Shansi into an autono- | mous republic—if and when they are | captured. Peiping, its name restored to Peking, was said to have been se- | lected as the capital for the new re- public, which which fly the former five-barred Chinese flag. _ Shanghai Fight Continues. The dramatic nine-day-old battle for the environs of Shanghai continued unabated just across Soochow Creek | from the northern boundary of the International Settlement. Time after time daring Japanese | raiding parties attempted to break the deadlock and huried themselves | against the bayonets of the Chinese | defenders behind a screen of artillery | and aeria] fire. But each time the Chinese took a | heavy toll of the Japanese as they advanced through a wall of machine gun fire and then overpowered the survivors by sheer numbers, Sk 'COLORED YOUTH COMMITS SUICIDE Found in Gas-Filled Room Clutch- ing Picture of Dead Mother. Despondent over the loss of his mother, who died about a year ago, George Henry Orendoff, 17, colored, yesterday clutched a picture of her in his arms and waited for death by gas in the kitchen of his apartment, 1926 New Hampshire avenue. His body was found about 6 p.m. by a gas company employe summoned by a neighbor, who had smelled the fumes. He had been dead several hours. Gas was escaping from oper stove jets. A note addressed to his father, who lives in Chicago, asked him to “please forgive me for what I've done, but I miss mother s0.” He requested his sister, Ella Orendoff, with whom he lives, to send his body to his father. Another gas suicide of a colored person was attributed to despondency over unemployment. William L. Du- lany, 41, of 2111 Second street, was found yesterday, also in the kitchen of his home, with the jets on the stove open. The body was discovered by police, who had been summoned to investigate the escaping fumes. Coroner A.

SPEECH'S BACKING STILL T0 BE SEEN Empty Gesture Is Doubted in Peace Address by Roosevelt. BY DEWITT MACKENZIE, Associated Press Staff Writer. NEW YORK, October 6.—President Roosevelt's peace speech at Chicago may find a place in history as one of the great individual contributions of this generation to world-amity, coming as it does at the time of a crisis which is threatening many nations. Everything depends, of course, on the manner in which Mr. Roosevelt's words are backed up. Certainly he didn’t make this sensa- tional speech merely to reiterate that graphic three-word sentence, “I.hate war.” It could scarcely be an empty gesture. One thing emerges fairly clear: The President in effect has assumed the leadership among international states- men in the campaign against war. In the language of his revered cousin, Theodore Roosevelt, his hat is in the ring. . League May Get Teeth. Pending further developments, it is fair to say that President Roosevelt may have gone a long way toward providing the League of Nations with the teeth that Woodrow Wilson tried to give it, but failed. The League has encountered failure after failure in its efforts to stop wars, and its members have claimed that its weakness lay in the aloofness of America. Mr. Roosevelt hasn’'t joined the League now, but he would appear to have placed behind it a moral force so tremendous as to insure respect from would-be offenders. By the same token, he has, on paper, lined the United States up solidly with all peace efforts being made by in- dividual nations like Britain. Speaking of Great Britain, war- mongering nations and those actually engaged in hostilities. cannot help b being reminded that the United States and Britain together represent a force, economic and military, that could face the rest of the world with assurance i necessary. ' The most sensational aspect of the President’s speech la¥ in the fact that he stepped clear off the beaten path of diplomacy when, in his castigation of warring countries, he virtually named them. The bluntness of his language prob- ably was unprecedented for one in his position. The French foreign office was the first to label the address for what it really appears to be, namely, the an- nouncement of “the real entry of the | great moral force of the United States” into the world's troubled af-| fairs. | ‘The world will await anxiously to see | whether the President’s speech tunes | the peace-machine up to the pitch of | efficiency necessary in the present | crisis, WINDSORS QUIT PARIS FOR GERMANY SUNDAY Couple Will Begin Survey of Labor Problems Which Will Carry Them to U.

PARIS, October 6.—A close friend | of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor | said today the couple planned to | leave for Germany Sunday on the first stage of the survey of labor | problems, which will take them to the | United States. It was understood the former British | monarch and his American-born bride | would stay briefly in the Reich, then | return to Paris to prepare for the | more extensive study in the United | States. Specific plans for the American trip have not been arranged. The | duke has accepted engagements for up to October 27 in Paris.

NEW YORK, October 6.—In a world “fast growing unsafe for the civilized and the peace loving,” American for- eign policy is based on three funda- mental principles for which “we are ready to risk ahd sacrifice,” in the opinion of Assistant Secretary of State Francis B. Sayre. Sayre outlined the three points in answering the question “If from a realistic approach neither resort to War nor attempted isolation offers ade- quate defense, what then?” He cited: “First, we can seek in every prac- ticable way to liberalize world trade and to eliminate or reduce excessive trade barriers, “Second, we can exert a constant and powerful pressure throughout the world against the use of force for the settlement of international conflict. “Third, we can continue to uphold in every way which seems practicable civilized standards of international conflict.” He spoke at the closing session last night of the New York Herald Tribune’s seventh annual forum. More than 3,000 attended. President Franklin D. Roosevelt had the last word. He praised the forum as & “grand institution” and added: “We ought to have more of them, but they ought tc be supplemented by an intensive drive to get people to know their own country better. It is a grand country and we can all be proud of it.” Two men who have joined in cham- ploning many causes of the New Deal —Senator Robert F.

Obviously there is quite a difference in the ages of a mother and her daughter; two sisters can be less than one year apart in age. But unless you can see the faces, you cannot tell the respective ages and deter- mine the relationship. Unless you get the WHOLE picture you cannot answer the question. Those purchasing newspaper advertising for the promotion of their business cannot determine the value of advertising by see- ing circulation figures or rates per line; unless RESULTS can be shown, the WHOLE picture has not been presented. There- fore the calculation of advertising values, relatively speaking, cannot be determined unless RESULTS are proved to be a com- ponent factor. Advertising without results is sheer extravagance! he Star "BRINGS RESULTS
