POWER TALK; NYE SEES DRIFT TO WAR Washington Looms Borah Joins in Denunciation as Possible Site of Parley. 3 GOVERNMENTS EXPRESS VIEWS Chautemps Praises Roosevelt Plea for Peace. BACKGROUND— Nine-power treaty, signed at Washington in 1922 by Great Britain, Francs, Japan, China, Portugal, Italy, Belgium and Netherlands, was invoked unsuc- cessfully in 1932 by Secretary of State Henry L. Stimson. Use in present crisis in China demanded during last month and a half since Japanese campaign spread over Central and Southern China. By the Associated Press. Prance began today a preliminary exchange of views with the United | been denounce, to sit at a conference LONDON, October 7.—Britain and | 6tates on convocation of a nine-power | conference in an effort to curb the Bino-Japanese war, with the possibility | that the conference will be held in | Washington. Officials would not say \\hether a. flat request had been made to hold the nine-power pariey in Washington, but they did point to suitability of the American capital which in 1922 was the scene of negotiation for the nine- power treaty, guaranteeing territorial integrity of China. There were indications that Wash- ington had been asked whether, in its opinion, the nine-power parley should be held there, Chautemps Lauds Speech. In Paris Premier Camille Chau- temps, lauding President Roosevelt's appeal for efforts to preserve world peace, promised that France would support “any peace offensive or any ipitiative intended to tighten the solidarity of pacific nations.” Terming the American President's address in Chicago a “decisive moral support” for efforts to keep the world from war, the French premier <ug~ gested “conciliatory” study of political | questions perturbing the relations of nations—(the Spanish wa~, the Sino- | Japanese conflict). Addressin,, the Paris American Club, | Chautempts said France was ready to seek a solution of such problems with *“the most profound spirit of equity and conciliation.” Churchill Hails Speech. Winston Churchill told the Scar- borough conference of the British Con- servative party that President Roose- velt's speech was bound to bring an “enormous contribution to the con- solidation of those forces in the world which stand for peace and freedom.” Churchill, first lord of the admir- alty during the World War, urged sup- port of the government and Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden in this “time of grave anxiety,” when ‘“terrible deeds” of brutal violence are being perpetrated at different ends of the world.” Churchill warned against exagger- ated expectations from the American President’s action, but insisted that President Roosevelt expressed in “elo- quent language exactly the same ideas &s are in our minds.” In Rome United States condemna- tion of Japan was laid to British in- fluence by Editor Virginio Gayda in Giornale d'Italia. Gayda, who often reflects official Italian attitude, defended Japanese mjjitary operations in China as “puri- fying.” Secretary Hull’s condemnation of Japan caused a mild sensation in So- viet circles. Reports from, Moscow said officials made no effort to con- ceal their pleasure at the State De- partment’s outspokenness. U. S. PARTICIPATION CERTAIN. Hull Indicates Firm Intention to Join | Nine-Power Talk. B) the Associated Press Secretary Hull indicated today this Government's firm intention of par- ticipating in a nine-power conference to consider the Far Eastern conflict. The Secretary of State said at his press conference that no invitation to such a parley thus far has been re- ceived, but that naturally, as one of the signatories to the nine-power treaty guaranteeing China's terri- torial sovereignty, he “presumed” this ‘Government would accept if and when the bid is received. The conference is being convoked on the recommendation of the League of Nations Assembly to consider possible measures to halt the Sino-Japanese conflict. No Communication Received. Hull said this Government has re- ceived no communication proposing that the conference be held in Wash- ington, birthplace of the nine-power treaty, and he declined to comment on suggestions that this city might be desiguated. Such- suggestions have been made unofficially in both Geneva and London. ‘The Secretary of State pointed out that the League action looking toward the summoning of such a wfi{:rence was directed to signatories of the pact which are members of the League of Nations. ‘These signatories in turn are belnz (See PARLEY, Page A-3) 4 y | | | Of America’s Policy in China Pittman and Thomas Rally to Defense of Administration—Navadan De- mands Japan Be Ostracized. BY G. GOULD LINCOLN. The Roosevelt administration’s Far East policy was roundly denounced by Senator Borah of Idaho and Senator Nye of North Dakota today. Rallying to the administration’s defense were Senators Pittman of Nevada, chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, a member of that committee, “We are drifting into War,” said telephone from Bismarck, N. Dak. “We are in a position comparable | with that which existed in 1916-17.” “I do not know that we are going into war, but the situation is risky,” said ‘Senator Borah, speaking on the telephone from his home in Boise. He continued: “I do not believe that Japan will enter any conference under the nine- power treaty. We have denounced Japan as an aggressor nation. Can we expect any nation, after it has table with us? I “If we hoped for any conference with Japan we should not first hme‘ denounced that nation. “The only thing we could and should do is to pursue our own course | and keep aloof from entanglements. | “As I see it, this is just another | case of Great Britain expecting every. American to do his duty.” The policy of the administration, ls Borah views it, looks to a new league in which the United States will have a_part, Senator Pittman, in an Associated Press dispatch from Reno, was quoted as demanding the “ostracism” of | Japan by other nations. Japan, in the opinion of Senator Thomas, does not want war with the United States and will take part in the projected conference under the nine-power treaty pledging the in- | tegrity of China. Senator Nye said that “in spite of our fine words, and notwithstanding our resolution not to mix in other - nd Senator Thomas of Utah, another Nye, speaking over the lnng-dlstance SENATOR NYE. people’s business, we are getting in deeper every hour.” The neutrality act. designed to keep the United States out of foreign wars, has been abandoned by the sdnums- (Se NYE, Page A-3.) JAPANESE PLANES KILL 500 CVILIANS Southen China Attacked as League and U. S. Con- demn Tokio. BACKGROUND— Japan’s invasion of China shifted to air ajter failure of infantry forces to break -through strong Chinese defenses of Shanghai. Japanese have conquered right bank of Yangtze River and short distance inland. Nearly 100,000 Japanese soldiers declared fighting in Shanghai area. Japanese planes have carried warfare to Canton, in South China, and inland to the im- portant Canton-Hankow Railway. Thousands of non-combatants have been killed. B5 the Associated Press SHANGHALI, October 7.—More than 500 Chinese civilians were reported today to have been killed by mass bombing raids of Japanese war planes on the rich southern province of Kwangtung. The Chinese Central News Agency reported that eight Japanese planes, including two huge bombers, were shot down by a surprise Chinese defense of the strategic military railway lfnking Canton on the South coast and the Yangtze River port of Hankow. The massed Japanese planes took to the air yesterday just as the League of Nations and the United States were condemning Japan for violation = of her treaty obligations by invasion of Chinese territory. A dozen railway centers were bombed along the route from Canton to Han- kow, Chinese dispatches said, killing and wounding more than 300 non- combatants in those towns alore. In Northern Kwangtung Province the raiding planes were said to have caused several hundred more casual- ties. Twenty bombs fell on the de- partmental ' capital city of Shiuchow alone, demolishing some 30 dwellings While the massed flight of 36 Japa- nese planes followed the raflroad to the mnorth, dropping bombs on each village as they came to it, Chinese said a spirited attack by 70 Chinese planes kept the line from being more than slightly damaged. Out of the 36 Japanese planes, Chi- nese said eight were shot down, while the Japanese were able to take a toll of ‘but two Chinese pursuit ships. At Shanghai, where a desperate battle was raging through the rice paddies northwest of the city, the Japanese flagship Idzumo today sent countless shells screaming over the International Settlement in an effort to blast the Chinese out of stubbornly- defended positionx on the Chapei and North Station battle fronts. In an effort to break a sharp Chi- nese counter-attack, tons of lead and steel were poured into the maze of Chinese lines just across Soochow Creek from the area guarded by t.ho United States Merines. J BRITISH STEAMERS SEIZED BY REBELS Two Captured Off North Coast by Spanish Trawler. By the Associated Press. LONDON, October 7.—Two British steamers were captured off the North- ern Spanish coast by a Spanish in- surgent trawler, the admiralty said today. The vessels were the Yorkbrook and the Dover Abbey. The . admiralty said “presumably” the ships were withih territorial wa- ters. It was pointed out that such vessels had been warned repeatedly they entered territorial waters at their own risk. The capture was not observed by British warships (on regular patrol along Spanish coasts). “DECISIVE ACTION” STUDIED. Britain Considers Counter Moves Agaipst Italian Intervention. B3 the Associated Press. ’ LONDON, October 7.—With the powerful backing of the United States in moves to curb the Japanese in- vasion of China, Britain, with France at her side, today considered *‘decisive action”. to counter Italian interven- tion in Spain, The United States State Depart- ment’s formal condemnation of Japan (See STEAMERS, Page A-5.) | Board have agreed * FOELTY GPENN ONSCENT B GVEN APPROVAL Controller Sanctions “in Principle” Revised Offer of Federal President. NEW CONTRACT TO BE SUBMITTED TO COURT Unofficial Estimates Place Open- ing Date Two Weeks After Court Action, BACKGROUND— Fidelity Building and Loan Asso- ciation closed in July, 1936, with claims of nearly 18,000 shareholders amounting to approximately $4,- 400,000. Negotiations to reorgan- ize institution as First Federal Sav- ings and Loan Association have been under way since last Spring, several times apparently dead- locked: . Controller of the Currency J. F. T. O’Connor today approved the revised offer of First Federal Savings and | Loan Association to take over assets | of the old Fidelity Building and Loan | Association immediately and make available 85 cents on the dollar to shareholders either in new shares or | cash. The controller acted on the basis | of a letter from Harry P. Somerville, president of the First Federal; ofler- ing to go forward now to take mer | Fidelity assets. The controller, the First Federal | and the Pederal Home Loan Bank | “in principle,” to all details for the re-opening of Fidel- ity under its new name, and steps | will be taken immediately to complete the transaction. Contract Is Written. A contract has been written to transfer the assets. It will be ap- proved by the new First Federal and the Federal Home Loan Bank Board. This contract will be submitted to the court, with a letter from the receiver of Fidelity, James H. Nolan, asking for court approval. The petition to | the court, along with the proposed contract for sale of the assets, should be ready to file “within a few days,” officials said. Court approval will be necessary before the actual transfer of assets | can be made. But if and when the | court does approve, it is expected that | all speed will be resorted to by the First Federal Savings & Loan Asso- ciation to open the new institution. Unofficial estimates placed the date of opening at about two weeks after court approval Somerville said in his letter to the | coritroller the First Federal is willing to proceed with the reorganization at once, waiving its previous requirement that 75 per cent of the Fidelity share- hoiders consent to accept shares of the First Federal and not insist on cash settlement. Since the reorganization plan was submitted to the nearly 18,000 Fidelity shareholders on September 4, agree- ments to accept Fidelity shares in settlement of their claims have been signed by shareholders representing 63 per cent of the approximately $4,400,000 share liability. No Withdrawal Restrictions. This - response, Somerville wrote O’Connor, has convinced the First Federal board of directors that a “very substantial majority” favors the plan and “there is every probability of a successful reorganization” under which the First Federal could immediately begin operations “on a perfectly nor- mal basis without restrictions upon withdrawals, so that shareholders who desire cash will receive it.” First Federal officials made it clear there would be no restrictions on withdrawals if the reorganization goes through, even on those who have signed the agreement to accept new shares in lieu of cash. If and when the First Federal takes over Fidelity affairs and opens its doors, it was emphasized, Fidelity shareholders could obtain settlement of their.claims at 85 cents on the dollar, either all in new First Federal shares, all in cash or part cash and part shares in the new institution.

I. 0. Aide, Declares. By the Associated Press. DENVER, October 7.— American Federation of Labor leaders called for a boycott today on goods made in Japan. “I am confident the American people will not want to assist Japan indirectly in its campaign of violent aggression and_exploitation of Chinese resources by purchasing Japanese products in this country,” said Matthew Woll, a federation vice president. “I'm not only in favor of a boycott but I'm for putting any one who buys Japanese goods in jail for 30 days,” said Charles P. Howard, president of | the International Typographical Union and C. I. O. secretary. I M. Ornburn, secretary of the fed- eration’s union label department, said “We buy Japanese goods and it is our money that permits the war lords over there to wage war.” All three favored adoption of a boy- cott resolution at the federation's con- vention, although Woll added a boycott should be handled carefully. “We do not want to interfere with what the State Department is doing to carry out the purpose to which we are all agreed—bringing to an end the unjustified and unwarranted invasion of the privileges, rights and property of the Chinese people,” Woll said. Both Woll and Ornburn pointed out, however, that: “Even before the war American labor seriously felt the competition of Japanese goods produced with labor standards far below ours.” Daniel J. Tobin, president of the truck drivers’ union, said in a radio speech that Harry Bridges, Pacific Coast C. I. O. director, could set aside the United States neutrality laws with a word if he so chose. War for Control 6f Coast. Tobin's truck drivers and Bridges' longshoremen have been at war fer control of West Coast warehousemen. “If Japan and Russia were to have war, as a sympathizer with Russia, Mr. Bridges could stop all shipments to Japan, Tobin said. “Neautality laws enacted by Congress could be set aside by Mr. Bridges.” The Labor Relations Board’s deci- sion yesterday in the General Steel Castings Corp. case (Granite City, I.) failed to stop the federation’s cry for an amendment to the Wagner labor disputes act to protect craft unions, The board decided skilled crafts- men in the plant should vote sepa- rately whether they wanted to be represented by the C. I. O. industrial union of A.F. of L. craft unions. William Green, A. F. of L, president, called the decision a ‘“step in the right direction,” but ‘said enactment of the amendment would be pushed.

GUARD IS SLUGGED BY FLEEING CONVICTS | Second Used as Hostage as Three | Make Escape From Joliet Prison. By the Associsted Press. JOLAET, Ill, October 7.—Three convicts slugged a guard into uncon- sciousness and temporarily used an- other for a hostage in making an escape from the Statesville Prison Honor Farm early today. The felons, all serving terms for robbery, waylaid J. W. Black during the change of shifts, and then forced Albert Drungen, another guard, to accompany them. Drungen, in whose car the con- victs fled, was dumped out of the car 2 miles north of the prison. He was unharmed, prison authorities said. The attack on the guards occurred in a dormitory in which 150 trusties were alseep. The three convicts felled black with a rock. The prisoners, whose escape was flashed over police radios in Illinois and nearby. States, were: Gene Moorhead, 28; William Han- ley, 37, both serving 3 to 20 year sen- tences, and James Poge, 36, serving a 1-to-10-year sentence. Warden Joseph Ragen said the trio was not involved in a hunger strike at the prison proper this week. Prison rules were tightened last Sunday | when 1,000 convicts went on the hunger strike. e Girl, 14, Remarries.
