DEATH GRAPPLE WITH JAPAN IS FAGIHGMESE Hinted Nationalist March on Manchuria Would Bring Conflict. BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Foreign Editor, Scripps-Howard Newspapers. WASHINGTON, June 21.—Ominous rumblings Ilf hind the curtain of the Chinese drama indicate the stage is now being set for another act, as thrilling as any that has gone before and perhaps even more dangerous to the peace of the world. From Japanese sources comes the report that Nationalist China Is preparing a march on Manchuria to bring the three eastern provinces known by that name under Nationalist sway.

Claim Treaty Violated Prom different sources—but still Japanese and semi-official in character—at the same time comes the warning that under no circumstances will Japan permit fighting in Manchuria. If necessary, it is said, Japan will mobilize as many divisions as required, but the Nationalists must keep their troops out. Openly Japan is insisting on her “special position” in Manchuria and eastern Mongolia, “call, it a protectorate or what you will.” Manchuria, she frankly announces, is vital to the Japanese empire and having fought one war—with Russia —in defense of her interests there, she will fight again if necessary. On her side, Nationalist China says she will never allow Japan to tread on her soverignty in any such manner without doing what she can to prevent it. The Nationalist government at Nanking insist Japan is openly and flagrantly violating the nine-power treaty of Washington, which stipulates that the signatory powers shall respect China's soverignty. Would Suit Japan How Nationalist China will meet the new Japanese threat remains to be # seen. Armed resistance would be suicidal. Moreover, it would play directly into Japan’s hands. It would furnish an excuse for war, and after China had been defeated, as she would be in short order, Japan formally could declare a protectorate over Manchuria and eastern Mongolia with a view to later annexation. Manchuria has an area of 363,000 square miles. The part of Mongolia now being brought under Japanese influence is about the same size. The total Chinese territory, therefore, from which the Japanese would exclude the Chinese, amounts to more than 700,000 square miles, or nearly three times the present territory of the whole Japanese empire, including Korea, recently annexed, and the islands of Formosa and Sakhalin.

SOUTH SULLEN, SEES HOPES TO BAR SMITH FAIL Bitterness Promises to Throw Many Votes to Hoover. BY RAY T. TUCKER HOUSTON, Tex., June 21.—The South faces with sullenness and bitterness the prospect of A1 Smith’s nomination by the Democrats. Politicians who assail him vocally and still predict they can block him, faithfully reflect the feeling of the people. A visit to several homes, a canvass of people on the streets and in hotel lobbies and discussions with business leaders disclose a deep seated belief that Smith “is not the type of man to sit in the White House." That is the way they phrase their objections. And these people, men and women, do not seem to hold his wet views or religion against the New York Governor. Many of them drink and most of them detest Heflin and all his words and works. The Republicans, in the nomination of Herbert Hoover, have accentuated this feeling. The Republican nominee’s international reputation, his post in the cabinet and his personality commend him to Texans who contrast him with Smith to the latter’s disadvantage. The women are largely against

Smith for reasons difficult to explain. They feel he lacks poise, dignity and the background traditionally associated with Presidents Their opposition is of an instinctive, feminine character; it is emotional in its nature. The men admit his ability and consider him a “great Governor.” But even down here, New York Republican’s ten-year criticism of his financial policies has had its effect. Then there is a strong prejudice against New York. Smith will suffer from the feeling that New York “hogs everything” which is held by people in all walks of life, including the fellow who thinks the Yankees ought to be Broken up for the good of baseball. Every home run from Babe Ruth’s bat helps to strengthen this personal antipathy to the metropolis. Nobody predicts southern States will be found in the Republican columns in November, but the majority of those personally interviewed say they will vote for Hoover. That will take courage in a community where a Democrat who votes the G. O. P. ticket is regarded as a fallen angel.
