Many delegates among the 19 nations in conference here to promote peace In the far east believed that the delay indicated that Japan would not flatly refuse the overtures. Others thought Japan was “stalling for lime" to enable her armies to continue their gains in China.

Quietly, so as not to disturb her sleeping husband, she picked up baby Margaret sleeping in the same room, and made her way through the dank, dark corridors of the old tenement, up the creaking steps to the roof. A moment later she and her baity were hurtling to the street. Her husband, Michael, told police I that of late she had complained of a strange buzzing noise in her head. She had told him many times that it sounded at first like the i ticking of a clock, and then it ; would become an “awful buzz." Presumably, these noises bad in--1 terrupted her sleep, i Mrs. Begge had been married before and has a 19-year-old son by the first marriage.
