THREE NATIONS ANSWER APPEAL World Peace Test Slow Is Returning Verdict To Secretary Kellogg

Washington. Dec. 3. —(U.R)—Sixty hours after dispatch of Secretary of State Stimson'* plea for a mobilized world opinion to enforce the Kellogg anti war pact in Manchuria, the state department said only three nations had signified to Washington any Intention of remonstrating with Soviet Russia and China. As rapidly as they were received, the state department made public favorable repflea from Great Britain. France and Italy. Japan's dissenting opinion wan reported merely by press dispatches, tha state dtpartment Insisting nothing had been heard from Tokio. There was no comment here on the attitude of Germany which was fifth of the major powers consulted by Stimson.before he communicated with Nanking and Moscow. Press reports of Japan's attitude toward Stimson's appeal to 63 pact members to remonstrate with Soviet Russ a and China against, conflict in Manchuria caused curiosity here ;eI carding a passage made by Stimson jin announcing his action yesterday. ' “We have been engaged." Stimson said, “in discussing with the governIments of several of the other powers j signatory to the pact of Paris in regard to the situation in Manchuria. We have found in our discussions community of view with regard to fundamental principles." In reconciling this statement with press reports of Japan’s refusal to join other treaty eignators in remonstrances, the state department explained the “community in view” dealt merely with the desirability of peace. After Stimson discussed his intention with Great Britain. France, Italy, Germany and Japan, he communicated with the 47 other pact signatories suggesting remonstrances to Nanking and Moscow. o Full Meal The giant bullfrogs found in Africa i average ten pounds in weight.
