Aug. 18.— (U.R> —Little George Koslr, 11, and his gang— Big George, Willie, Mattsle, Jerry and Stnokie — tearfully explained today the cause of South Throop street's recent boom which rivaled, on a smaller scale, the glamor of the Klondike gold rush. The boom started July 8 after little George had found a pickle par beneath the rear porch of his home. Instead of pickles, the jar contained $940. Little George summoned his pals and the boom was on. A few of their expenditures, which little George recalled for his parents: Two bicycles. S7O; twelve billfolds for friends, $42; one hun-1 di et! dollars offered in $lO lots to | boys who could walk across the' Top of a huge sign board; twelve flashlights, $7.80; a day's outing at Jackson Park, $45; rental for horses at Lincoln Park, $32. Little George learned yesterday that the money had belonged to his father. He appeared before Juvenile Judge Lambert K. Hayes j ' to testify at the arraignment of big George, 19, the eldest of the boys, who was charged with lar- ' ceny for his part in depleting tho

Jar. Little George's other pals were there, too. Judge Hayes recovered $263 from them, then continued the case to give the boys' parents a chance to obtain a complete accounting. But before he recessed court he called tho boys before the bench. "Can't you tell me what you did with the money,” he asked. Little George, Willie, Mattsie, Jerry and Smokie recalled only a few minor Items. Big George, who had declared himself bookkeeper when half the money had been spent, said he had kept a record of some expenditures. For example: Aug. 7—(Boat excursion to MilI waukee): Boat fare, $6; stateroom, sl2; taxis, $5; food, sl3; gingerale, whisky and wine, $5; slot machine on boat, S2B. “How did these boys eat and drink sl9 worth of food and liquor?" the judge asked. “I was the only one who drank liquor," big George said. "The others had milk." "But the rest of the money,” Hayes insisted, "you must know what you did with it." Little George stepped forward. "Once," he said, “I got S6O changed into uickles. The other boys stood along one side of the Drainage canal and 1 pitched coins across to them." Q GREAT BRITAIN | (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) which Halifax might resign, were denied officially. The rumors were called preposterous and mischievous. As a matter of fact Halifax has been consistently in fator of friendship with Germany, but the rumors had it that he favored a stronger attitude against demands of the dictators. As regards Czechoslovakia, the government was expected to busy itself with efforts to effect some sort of compromise formula on which negotiations could be continued at Prague. As regards Spain, it was forecast here and in Paris that activity would be concentrated on saving the structure of the non-intervention agreement. It was expected that the non-inter-bention committee would meet here next week. France shares Great Britain's anxiety over the diplomatic out-

CHIN A LEADER IS MURDERED Police Superintendent Is Aassassinated By Unidentified Men Shanghai, Aug. 18 — (U.R) — Lon Lfeu-Kwe, Chinese superintendent ot the International settlement police, was assassinated today. The assassins were not identified.. They fired 20 shots at Lon. whose duties as police superintendent included aiding United States marines and other foreign troops in rounding up Chinese and Japanese terrorists. Shortly before he was killed, Col. Senruko Kusomoto, chief of the Japanese army's special service branch, called at marine headquarters and apologized for an incident in which some of his men tangled with the American troops. The incident took place last Saturday. It involved the arrest by the marines of three special service agents for the alleged irregular activities in the American defense sector of the international settlement. The Japanese were seized while threatening to shoot a group of Chinese who were flying their nationalist flag. Colonel Kisomoto said that every effort would be made to prevent a recurrence and that those involved have been reprimanded severely. In Peiping the French embassy requested Japanese authorities to release two French soldiers involved in a street brawl outside a case frequented by embassy guards of all nations. But the Japanese continued to debate if they would release the soldiers, sulate general was reported to have In Tsingtao. the Japanese conprotested to British authorities against an incident in which a British sailor allegedly hauled down and trampled the Japanese flag in a hotel. The general tension between Japanese and foreign authorities here eased, however, after the arrival of Maj. Kenji Doihara who reportedly had instructions from Tokyo to' smooth out friction with third powers. Informed Japanese sources said that the Japanese army command I was anxious to terminate the pres-i ent friction.

Mr. Roosevelt was in formal attire, wearing a black silk topper. The prime minister's topper was of pearl gray. The president was escorted to a platfor on the field in the stadium, where he received his honorary degree from Chancellor James Richardson. Then, in cap aud gowu, he began his address. This morning at the university he used as his theme the premise that "civilization is not national—it is international.” This truth, he said, is being challenged” in some parts of the world. “The people of the Americas, he continued, were "in a large sense" responsible for maintaining that tradition. "We in the Americas know the sorrow and the wreckage which may follow if the ability of men to understant each other is rooted from among the nations,” he said. Many of us here today know from experience that of all the devastations of war none is more tragic than the destruction which it brings to the processes of man's minds. Truth is denied because emotion pushes it aside. Forebearance is succeeded by bitterness. In that atmosphere human thought cannot advance.” The peoples of the United States are friends ‘because we maintain our own rights with frankness, because w© refuse to accept the twists of secret diplomacy, because we settle our disputes by consultation and because we discuss our common problems in in the spirit of the common good. We seek to be scrupulously fair and helpful not only in our relations with each other but each of us at home in our relations with our own people, Mr. Roosevelt said. "But there is one process." he continued, "which we certainly can uot change aud probably ought uot to change. This is the feeling which

We cannot prevent our people from having an opinion in regard to wanton brutality, in reI gard to undemocratic regimentation, in regard to misery inflicted on helpless peoples, or in regard to violations of accepted individual rights.

It is right and just that this should be the case." o TELLS ACTIVITY (CONTINUED FROM FAGE ONE) Dorgan," whom she said she understood wae Harry Bridges.
