STAND Proclamation of Matsui Termed War Decree. SRE | “EVERY MEANS” | WILL BE USED"‘ Makes Threats to Raze Pootung Trade Area. Bs the Associated Press. SHANGHAI, October 8.—Gen. Iwane Matsui, Japanese commander- in-chief on the Shanghai front, issued & proclamation today—the first official announcement of the Japanesc inva- sion of China—which Chinese consid- €red the equivalent of if not a diplo- matically formal declaration of war. Gen. Matsui declared the Japanese army “is now prepared to use every means to subdue its opponents.” In view of previous declarations of Jap- anese army and navy spokesmen, ob- servers considered this the verbal pre- lude of Japan’s threatening big push against the Chinese defense lines northwest of Shanghai. Matsui, in the name of the Japanese Emperor, promised an early victory and a peaceful future after scourging the “Chinese government army whaq have been pursuing anti-foreign and anti-Japanese policies in collaboration Wwith Communist influences.” He added that the lives and property of nationals of third powers would be protected. Threat to Raze Trade Area. His announcement came shortly after army authorities made an im- plied threat to turn their land and ‘warship batteries against Poontung and raze the industrial area across the Whangpoo River from Shanghai un- less Chinese batteries there ceased firing at Japanese civilian areas in the Hongkew sector of the International Settlement. Questioned concerning the signifi- eance of the proclamation, and army spokesman explained that Matsui, after gathering the necessary military units, now considered himself quali- fled to carry out the mission entrusted to him by Emperor Hirohito, The Japanese Army, the spokesman #aid, was prepared to utilize all rein- forcements and additional equipment, but he declined to say whether the big push was planned to begin on October 10, the Chinese national holiday. Gen. Matsui’'s proclamation de- clared: “Charged by his majesty the Em- peror with the task of heading the landed on Chinese soil south of the Yangtze River. To Scourge Chinese Army. “The objectives of the Japanese expeditionary forces, as clearly set out by the Japanese government's statements, are not only to protect the vested interests of Japan and the lives and property of Japanese residents of the affected area, but also to scourge the Chine. govern- ment army who hav. been pursuing anti-foreign and anti-Japanese poli- cies in collaboration with Communist influences. “In short, the mission of the Jap- anese Army is to establish the founda- tions for a firm and lasting peace in East Asia. “We feel sorry for the many in- nocent persons who unfortunately are living in the area of hostilities, and it goes without saying the Japanese Army has no enmity toward the Chinese people in general. “However, against those who bear (See CHINA, Page A-4) THIRD BRITISH VESSEL CAPTURED BY REBELS 782-Ton Bobie Seized on Way From Antwerp to Aviles or Gijon.

France and Britain have led fight to grevent Spain from becom- ing battlefield on which Europe's “isms” might join forces to fight Jor supremacy. E3 the Associated Press. LONION, October 8.—Foreign Sec- retary ¢nthony Eden today expressed the British government's “gratifica- tion” over President Roosevelt's speech to the American Charge d'Affaires. Herschel V. Johnson, and told him that Great Britain considered it a “real contribution” toward peace. At the same time, informed sources said, Eden and Johnson during their meeting yesterday discussed the gen- eral implications of the United States President’s call for co-operation of “peace-loving nations.” They also went over the procedure to be fol- lowed in the coming nine-power con- ference to deal with the Japanese invasion of China. Informed sources hinted it was un- likely Washington, London or any other big capital would be chosen as the scene of the nine-power talks. It was indicated The Hague would be considered, in view of the Netherlands’ important trade interests in the Far | East. With these developments indicat- ing the United States was increas- ingly taking over Britain's tradi- tional role as the holder of the in- ternational balance of power, at least in the Eastern situation, the British ‘were suddenly silent on Il Duce's delay in answering their bid for a tri- ting of foreigners out of Spain.

CROP REPORT OF RECORD YIELD TUMBLES COTTON {Mark of 249.3 Pounds Per Acre Seen—Prices Fall Below 8 Cents. 17,573,000-BALE TOTAL SECOND BIGGEST EVER Forecast Is More Than 5,000,000 Above Last Year—Futures Fall to 7.77 Cents. Ej the Associated Press. yleld to an all-time record of 249.3 pounds today in forecasting a United States production of 17,573,000 bales, | based on October 1 conditions. This production figure, if realized, would be the second largest crop ever ‘harvesu‘d. more than 5,000,000 bales |larger than last year, and nearly 13,000,000 bales above the five-year | average of 1928-32. The largest crop harvested was 17,978,000 bales in 1926. The Federal Crop Board made an upward revision of more than 1,500,- 000 bales over its last previous esti- mate by raising its estimated yield more than 20 pounds for each of the 33.736,000 acres reported in cultiva- tion. A month ago the yield per acre was reported at 228.5 pounds, an all-time | record. Administration farm leaders who | have been urging a special session of Congress this Fall to enact a broad new Federal farm program said the large increase in estimated cotton pro- duction probably would bring increas- ing pressure from the cotton belt for prompt Federal action. Cotton prices, previous to the report today, had been moving downward. Cotton sold near 14 cents a pound early this year and then moved down | to about 10 cents in August with fore- casis of the large crop. Despite a Government loan program 'lt 9 cents a pound for good grade | cotton, prices have hovered near 8 cents a pound in recent weeks. COTTON FUTURES 1UMBLE, Quotations Fall $1 to $1.50 a Bale, Lowest Since 1933, By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, October 8 —Caught oft guard by the unexpectedly big increase | in the Government crop estimate, | | prices of the staple in futures trading today dropped to the lowest since the Spring of 1933. Quotations fell about $1 to $1.50 a bale shortly after trading was re- sumed, following a halt while the mar- ket received the news of an estimated yield of 17,573,000 bales. Private estimates the last few days had averaged around 16,500,000 to 16,750,000. January delivery slipped under 7.75 cents, lowest since May, 1933, when commodities were moving ahead in the first great upsurge after the dollar had been cut loose from its former gold link, At the yea:'s peak last April, before a general slide in commodities gained headway and prospects of a large crop became visible, January contracts traded around 14 cents. Thus nearly half the market value had been elimi- nated in the interval. Some cotton men could hardly be- lieve their eyes as they watched the figures come in from Washington.

NEW ORLEANS, October 8 (#).— Cotton prices broke $1 or more a bale here today after the Government esti- mated the second largest crop on rec- ord. When trading was resumed after a 20-minute suspension to receive the Government estimate, all active months dropped below the 8-cent line to the lowest levels in four years. October contracts sold off to 7.91 cents a pound, December to 7.85 cents, January, 7.77; March to 17.77, May, 7.83, and July, 7.93 cents, or 18 to 25 points below the previous close of the market, ey ETHIOPIANS FIGHTING Important “Police” Operations Against: Natives Reported.

A committee, headed by Peter Flyzik, district vice president of the United | Mine Workers, visited the eighth level of the Coaldale Colliery, where the original band of protesters has held forth for two days and two nights.

A letter from the Commissioners embodying their decision not to allo- cate the grand jury space was re- i::eived by Garnett this morning. The use of two of the court rooms in the new building had been re- quested by Barnett for the grand jury, witnesses and clerks. No mention of the request was made | when the Commissioners, who were given control of the building in a rider to the District appropriation bill passed in the last Congress, appointed a committee to examine the new struc- ture and report what space could be made available for various District agencies now in need of additional room or more modern quarters.

Illness has forced four of the sit-downers to come out of the mine. The Coaldale miners shouted their support at an open-air meeting near the mine just before work was to have started for the day. They sent dele- gations in automobiles to four other mines of the Lehigh Navigation Coal Co. to enlist their support. The 7,500 miners are employed in the Coaldale, Tamaqua, Greenwood, Nesquehoning and Lansford mines, the principal other workings in the Carbon County coal field. All are owned by the Lehigh Navigation Coal Co. Send Word to Surface. A few hours before the sympathy strike was declared’ the 39 self-im- prisoned miners, who threw down their picks and shovels Tuesday demanding higher wages for opening a new level, sent word to the surface to “hold the men at work.” Four of the original group were hoisted to the surface yesterday, ill from exposure in the damp tunnel. One of them was Harry Danchak, 58, the oldest man among the strikers, advised to leave the colliery by the company physician, Dr. Robert Kistler, who examined the men in their self- imposed prison. He pronounced the others physically fit. Danchak was reticent about talking about conditions in the newly opened eighth level which the sit-down strikers have occupied, but did em- Phasize: . ey’ll stay down there until they die.” He brought out word that his com- panions experienced considerable diffi- culty with fumes from the tiny coal stoves they have kept burning to keep themselves warm and to heat their coffee. Their beds are planks on the damp ground. Electric wires were strung so they could read newspapers and magazines. So much food has been lowered to the sit-down strikers that they sent word up to send them no more until they asked for it. Meantime, the Lehigh Navigation Coal Co. remained firm in' its con- tention that the strike was in viola- tion of its contract with the United Mine Workers. R Triplets Born in Caesarean.

C. Smith of Dickenson County described the case as just another abusive language trial, but the mill country folks didn't take it that way. Children questioned their parents on stories they had heard of “spells” and conjuring oldsters recalled tales of witches who legend says once roamed this Kentucky border country. Prosecutor Smith said the case would be called at 1 pm. in Trial Justice Gallie Friend's court. “Rocky Joe” is accused in a warrant obtained by “Aunt Jane” with unlaw- fully and falsely speaking words “which from their usual construction and common acceptation” might be con- strued as “insults and tend to violence and breach of peace.” The warrant specifically charges that Stanley said “Aunt Jane” was a witch and would soon die “and other words of like purport.” Penalty upon conviction of such a charge, the prosecutor said, may be a fine from $25 to $500 or a jail sentence, or both, viding a partition was constructed.

The present Police Court Building, which is being replaced by a modern | structure at Fifth and F streets, al- ways has been under the control of the judges. An attempt to give juris- diction over the new buildings to the Commissioners was frustrated in Con- gress at the time the appropriation bill was passed, but an unnoticed rider was placed in the bill by the Conference Committee and the measure was passed without notice of this change. When they first learned of this, the judges attempted to frustrate it, but found there was nothing they could do. It was indicated by one of the judges today, however, that the pres- ence of the grand jury in the build- ing would be more welcome than would be any of the District agencies.
