This has in- cluded the stoppage of the river in- spection service, destruction of chan- nel buoys, and the discontinuance of lighthouse service. Demand Bandit Cleanup Chinese commercial interests of river ports are loudly demanding a cleanup of river brigands as the re- sult of which several Chinese gun- boats have begun to patrol the stream and scveral times have en- | gaged Red batteries, but without | much effect. > Shanghal, Oct. 14 (F) — With the | nationalist military at Nanking pro- fessedly turning its attention from the Civil War in the north to erad- jeation of communists south of the Yangtze River, reports today on conditions through the red-infested areas indicated a formidable task | awaited government troops. | Kiukiang advices revealed that communist depredations in Kiangsi province continued practically un- abated and zdditional up-river dis- patches said the reds seemed to be shifting their major headquarters from Hunan province into Kiangsi. The reds were not failing, however, to maintain sufficient forces in Hu- nan to control that area. Purpose Not Revealed The purpogs of the apparent shift from Hunan to Kiangsi was not re- vealed. However, Nanchang dis- patches estimated there were up- wards of 100,000 well armed out- Jaws, labelled communists, operating in Kiangsi, and adding that it seem- ed apparent Kiangsi would become fHe home of communist activities in central China. Although Nanchang, be seriously threatened munists, was virtually missionaries and foreigners, provin- cial authorities there despite meager resources and small numbers of troops whose loyalty was questioned, were seeking to defend the city from possible attack. A threefold defense line has been constructed about the city, consis ing of electric wire barricades, sandbag trenches and a series of forts beyond the defense lines. Seek- ing to finance emergency expendi- tures and to pay soldiers, whose wages are at least four months in arrears, authorities clamped on a se- vere property tax. This resulted in Increased funds but it was believed the action would further cripple areas already sadly suffering from lack of trade. Reds Control Towns Throughout Hunan province the reds continue to control the popula- | tion, both Chinese and 'the few re- | maining foreigners, Foreigners at Changsha, Hunan capital, have not yet departed, though it was recently | Teported they had decided to evacuate. Consumption of foreign goods in Hunan, which once amounted to 2| huge figure, has dwindled to a frac tion of the former amount because of the red invasion and the con- ptant strain upon the province's financial resources. Foreign companies operating in Hunan, such as oil and tobacco in- terests, reported business in that province prostrated, the reds having severed communications and robbed the populace until the latter was unable to buy foreign goods. Oil “Tompanies said the people had quit | buying kerosene and returned to the use of native oils for illumination purposes. Tobacco companies said | their sales were negligible. Destined to Poverty | Commercial authorities believe | Hunan province is destined to many | months of poverty and hardships even if the reds are routed immedi- ately. “Red kidnappings of Chinese for ransom and the plun- dering of ships for loot, which is distributed to virtually destitute peasants, continue on a wide scale in Hunan. Shipping in the Yangtze | river has felt communistic plunder- | ing sharply. From Kiukiang to Ichang the [Reds are operating, subjecting for- eign and domestic shipping to many | sttacks. Communist shore batteries, lo- ated behind river dikes, fire upon passing ships regardless of nation- | ality. Durisg the last two months, every ship operating on the river. commercial and naval, has suffered nt Wast one Red attack while many | have suffered repeated attacks. More serious than the firing upon ships, however, is the destruction by Reds of the river navigation sig- reported to wealthy | However, if the government suc- ceeds or even seriously attempts to cradicate the bandits, its populari throughout the affected areas is as- sured. On the other hand, if Nanking continues to make promises without action, the government, it is be- lieved, is destined to experience a storm of protest. l Overnight News] —_—_— By the Associated Press Domestic Washington — Fast army air- planes to rush Japanese ratification of London naval treaty from Van- couver, B.

FOR BEST RESULTS USE HERALD CLASSIFIED ADS EATING A SWEET IN MID-AFTERNOON - RESTORES VIGOR Fatigue Quickly Overcome by Sugar Content of Candy, | Cake or Beverage | | “Fagged out” at four o’clock is | an experience that nearly every | business man and ‘woman faces | daily. As a matter of fact this | condition has become so apparent | that it has been studied by medical men and food scientists. One of the best “remedies” dis- | covered for this mid-afternoon fa- | tigue was “something to eat.” 1 Experiments showed that when a | few pieces of candy, ice cream or | cookies were eaten, vitality was | quickly restored, The same was | true when a flavored beverage was | drunk—such as water sweetened | with sugar. | The refined sugar content of | these foods is responsible for the | renewed vigor. For when refined sugar is eaten it almost immediately | supplies nourishment to the body. And when the system is nourished fatigue disappears. | American business people are fortunate in being near places where candy, ice cream and bever- ages are sold. With practically no loss of time and ‘very little ex- pense, a mid-afternoon snack can be enjoyed. Most foods are more delicious and nourishing with sugar, The Sugar Institute.

Says They Will Succumb “Don't tell me women won't go pinching their fashion demands,” she said. may say they won't—but they sald they wouldn’t go back to long skirts, Corset Experts to Fight Attempt To Bring Back Wasp Waist Style New York, Oct. 14 (A—The first harpoon in a whalebone war was hurled today. Avenuc corsetierre, ference of eight New York corset manufacturers in an effort to secure concerted action preventing the re- turn of the “‘wasp waist.” Mme. Binner, who corseted Lillian Russell's famous figure in the days Diamond Jim Brady and who walsts “They're coming to me today— forty-five and girls eighteen—crying for small waists as a baby cries for candy. “They see one of the new frocks and the saleswoman tells them they must have a small wait to wear it. Advertisements, fashion “They stories— they read about style— tells them waists are much smaller. Now, how much is ‘much!” The women don’t know. They read fig- ure measurements by the yard tell- {ng them that for a certain height they should have a - certain walist measurement. - “Those figures pay no attention to weight and bone structure. They're nonsense. If we don’t nip this it | business in the bud, it will go on until women's waists are pinched as they used to be and their health suffers accordingly.” No Fault With Styles Mme. Binner said she found no fault with styles as they exist today. The present mode, she declared, is a natural one and as such reveals figures to the best advantage. “Women have told me they feel better wearing a light supporting girdle,” she said. “But they won't feel better or look better when of girdles pinch enough to interfere with circulation and comfort. Wasp walsts won’t do anybody any good.” The meeting adjourned to dra up figures for correct feminine walst, hip and - bust measurments, taking weight and bone structure into consideration.
