FLAME OF WAR SWEEPS AGAIN ACROSS CHINA Feng, ‘Christian General,’ Is on March Against Chief of Nationalists. r l ifi nited Press LONDON. May 20.—One of China’s greatest wars was impending today, reports from Shanghai published in the Daily Mail stating that Marshal Feng Yu-Hslang had declared war on General Chiang Kai-Shek, head of the nationalist government. Marshal Feng, the so-called Christian general, is clawed among the most powerful war lords of China, and formerly was minister of war in the nationalist government. He resigned that post on March 13. however, and maintained a neutral position during the succeeding Kwangsi rebelltn against General Chiang. General Chiang issued an ultimatum to Marshal Feng last week ordering him to disband his armies, and the Christian general's declaration of war was the reply to the ultimatum. In his declaration of war, Marshall Feng charged General Chiang was squandering the government's funds for reconstruction and exploiting the presidential office for his personal ends. Both sides were speeding up their preparations for war. Marshal Feng slowly began withdrawing his troops into Honan and Shensi provinces and destroying property on all sides. It. was estimated that $1.000.000 damage already had been done. Feng Masses Troops It’/ f’it'd I'rcg* SHANGHAI. May 20.—Marshal Feng Yu-Hsiang was concentrating his armies at Chengchow.

Canton, southern capital of the nationalist government, was captured by the rebellious Kwangsi forces todav. General Chen ChiTang. commander of the government troops, was reported fleeing. Marshal Feng continued to concentrate his troops at Cheng Chow’, it was reported here. Fighting was expected soon after the Sun YatSen funeral.

RERUN OFFERS LOAN TO SOVIET TO BOOM TRADE Germany Plans to Curb U. S. Competition by Grant of $11,850.000, BY FREDERICK KUH, Initfd Prrss Staff Correspondent BERLIN, May 20.—The constant expansion of the United States’ industrial and commercial activity in Russia has alarmed German industrial interests and brought about negotiations between Berlin and Moscow for a big revival of RussoGerman trade. The scheme provides for extension of $11,850,000 in credits to Russia, by Germany, with the assistance of American bankers. Negotiations were expected to be concluded by the end of June. In 1926 the Soviet ohtained industrial credits in Germany amounting to $7,110,000, but the present scheme, which the United Press is able to reveal for the first, is more ambitious. Loan 511.850,000 to Soviet Anew German offer, actually a counter-proposal to the Soviets’ original scheme, recently was ma.de by Germany, adding impetus to the negotiations. It included the following prosions: 1. Extension of $11,850,000 in credits to the Soviet for the purchase of industrial products in Germany. 2. Credits would be repayable within five years. 3. The German government would guarantee German industries repayment of the credits to the extent of 60 per cent, while the Soviets would guarantee 25 per cent and the remaining 15 per cent would be covered by Russian notes to German industries. 4. Germany -would secure SIOO,000,000 in credits, chiefly from, the United States, but also from Holland, to finance the transaction. Soviet Asks for Credit The Sovieet scheme, to which the above four points were a counterproposal, was divided into the following divisions: 1. The Sovietes asked for credits of $11,850,000 over a. period of ten years. 2. Two-fifths of the amount would be obtained in the form of a loan on the German public market on the understanding that Moscow would subscribe to 10 per cent of the loan. 3. The remaining three-fifths would constitute the German industrial credits. 4. The Soviett government would guarantee 10 per cent of the credits and the German government would guaranteee 75 per cent, Soviete authorities were understood to be aware that their demand to float the loan on the German public market was impractical, and were reconciled to abandoning it.

TWELVE MORE STRIKERS TRIED FOR PICKETING Machine Guns May Be Used If Textile Outbreaks Continue, BY EDWARD W. LEWIS t"nH*d Pres* Staff Correspondent ELIZABETHTON. Tenn.. May 20, —Lanky textile strikers treked to town with their wives and children from their mountain cabins again today, to attend another court session, similar to the many so far held over cases against strikers. Today twelve strikers were to appear in chancery court on charges of contempt in connection with picketing activities. Picketing is banned by an injunction. Contempt of court is punishable by a jail sentence in this state, and the county courthouse was thronged again with strikers, a little sullen after failing to secure acquittal of ten of their fellows Saturday, Weed-end developments in the Bemberg-Glanzstoff strike included: 1. Two explosions in a strike breakers’ community near Johnson City. No damage resulted. A fire here and an exchange of shots between guardsmen and a loiterer. The blaze, destroying a house was believed of incendiary origin. 2. Ousting of the United Textile Workers of America from their headquarters on complaint, of the owner of the building that rent had not been paid. 3. Warnings by Adjutant-General W. C. Boyd that, additional troops would be brought in if disorders continue. Machine guns planted on the roofs of the huge rayon plants will “be used" should an attack be made by strikers, he said. 4. Guarding by deputy sheriffs of highways from North Carolina on
