FEAR CHINA IS LIKELY PREY TO REDJOCTRINE Political Experts Cite Need of Great Powers’ Aid in Present Crisis. BV WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Bcri**-Howrd Foreign Editor WILLI AM BTOWN. Mass., Aug. 4. —Unless China Is offered a sympathetic hand by the rest of the world while she Is crossing the dangerous stream from the middle ages to modern statehood, she may turn red. Such is the belief among many leaders of the institute of politics here who have spent much time in the Orient and Soviet Russia. George E. Sokolsky, editor of the Far Eastern Review of Shanghai, and Paul Sheffer. formerly Berliner Tageblatt representative in Moscow, consider it entirely possible that the Communist element may overiun a large part, if not all, of China. Reds Making Gains Dr. George H. Blakeslee. professor of history and international relations at Clark university and head of the round table on the far eastern situation here, shares the view that Communism is making headway. He said he had first-hand information while in Canton last fall that Russian agents are taking advantage of China’s present state of unrest. Sokolosky declared that in south China, in the region between Canton and Hankow, there are at least 30.000 Red Chinese troop 6, well armed and capably led under the direction of Russian leaders. “In China, not one, but several revolutions now are going on in standards and ideals, in literature and education, in science, industry and government,” Blakeslee said. “In some respects progress has been marked. In others it has been slower. In spots the medieval and modem exist side by side. Taken Out and Shot “I visited one of the country’s ureat leaders recently and found him dresssed faultlessly in the latest London style. He just had returned from opening a tennis tournament. Yet I know that only a short while before, he calmly had talked with a rival in his own palace, then had had him taken out wid shot. •While people in this country may think such a thing as that terrible, it was precisely what could have happened in England 500 years ago. “China is emerging from medievalism. "But in the long run." Blakeslee concluded, “the Chinese should emerge entire, from all their revolutions, as the Japanese have done. “During the trying period to come, however, the shaping of China’s course will depend largely upon the attitude of the great powers, according to feeling here.”

Palmer McCloskey, Nation’s Champion, Is Tired, but Still Determined. BY ARCH STEINEL Three weeks of limb-lounging in the backyard of his home has gotten Palmer McCloskey, 14, of 328 North Temple avenue, a disgusted mother, offer of a theatrical engagement, a sweetheart who feeds him lemon drops, and free milk and ice cream. Palmer breezed through his 504th hour among the leaves today at noon with defiance to all tree-sitters of the nation, “I’ll stay up until school starts.” But the ennui of proving the correctness of Darwin's theory is beginning to tell on Palmer. Wants to Play “It. gets tiresome sometimes being up in the same place all the time. When I see the other kids playing, I want to come down, but I won't,’’ he said today. Tired of one wooden perch in the old oak tree he calls home. Palmer built a sun-porch for afternoon siestas. He was found on this veranda as Agnes, his sweetheart, fed him his daily lemon drop. “A milk company furnishes me milk, the chocolate kind and the other, day and I let them put up their signs. A confectionery sends me ice cream and candy, and a local theater has made me an offer,” he explained. Garden Hose Shower A garden hose in the hands of his brother, Morris, 11, is his shower bath. Palmer declares he's gained weight and feels fine, but his mother. Mrs. Ethel McCloskey, doesn’t think much either of the weight gain or his desire to be the country's champion tree squatter. “I'm disgusted. If he’d be doing something worth while it’d be different. But you can be sure of this—he’ll be down in time to go to school," asserted Palmer’s refueler. David Smith. Beech Grove, is Palmer's nearest competitor, with 472 hours to his credit. BAN FAMILY WASHINGS Low Water Supply Due to Drought Results in City Edict. Bu United Press GETTTYSBURG, Pa., Aug. 4. Gettysburg housewives today faced the first Monday in years they will not devote to the family laundry, because the water supply is so near exhaustion from the prolonged dry spell authorities have issued orders to dispense with the washings until an emergency source could be tapped. BALL PARK IS DAMAGED Cigaret Blamed for Fire Causing SI,OOO Loss to Stands.

Tub Conscious Housewives of City Can Match Their Gowns in Colors.

BY ARCH STEINEL W'HEN wash tubs were in bloom and Monday was blue from “blueing,” it was one gray dfy for mother as she scrubbed out the family's wearing apparel. But today in Indianapolis the mottled, steely look of the old tub saps the heart, for the jazz colors of 1930 have entered this washing business and the electric w r ashers shown in downtown stores rival the flamboyant colors of Broad Ripple beach pajamas. Yellows, in banana and lemon shades, orange-ripe hues, lily-pad greens and baby blues form the colored porcelains. The machines are as stylistic as spindle-legged dining room chairs, and as e glib salesman points out;

I!'ll go well with most any color house frock you have, madam.” In other words if your pocketbook is able, buy a washing machine first and then a house dress, for you can’t miss on colors. “Harmony is a home's first requisite,” explained a city interior decorator,” whether it be marital or furniture and so the washing machine merely is following in the footsteps of the age’s demand for color.” “Why, ten years ago, there wasn’t a pair of silk stockings to every 250 women, but now there are five pairs for every woman and of five different colors. More stockings mean more demand for washing machines,” he said. But another salesman sung an anvil chorus with “Bridge games, pigmy golf, night baseball, the talkies, made the washing machine what it is. They took women out of the home and when they did, out went the old wash tub.” DOG AIVD MISTRESS FLEE DEATH PENALTY Officials Wonder if Animal Can Be Extradited. Bv United Press ATLANTIC CITY.

IZUTA SLAIN BY OWN GUNMEN, POLICEJECIDE Woman Helped Engineer Killing of Chietain, Roche Believes. Bu United Press CHICAGO, Aug. 4.— The murders of Alfred J. Lingle, Chicago Tribune reporter, and Jack Zuta, north side gang chieftain, definitely were linked together today by police and other officials investigating both. “Find the man who killed Lingle in a pedestrian subway eight weeks ago and you’ll find one of the seven men who killed Zuta in a hotel resort at Delafield, Wis., last Friday,” was the word given out by Chief Investigator Pat Roche of the state’s attorney’s office. Roche went to Delafield and Waukesha, Wis., Sunday to aid Sheriff Phillip Herbrand in his investigation of the Zuta slaying. Link Woman to Case Their discoveries led, they said, to a belief Zuta may have “been put on the spot” by a woman who “double-crossed” him and told his rival gangsters the ideal time to assassinate him. Juta engineered the Lingle murf Roche has decided. He did this, Roche reasons, because Lingle was a friend of Scarface A1 Capone, Zuta’s enemy, and Lingle was dangerous to Zuta because as a racketeer and friend of the police he hindered north side activities. Zuta was one of the first men arrested after the Lingle slaying. The word went out through gangland that he “talked.” Zuta had that reputation anyway. It was not hard for his fellow gangsters to believe he had lived up to it. They knew him. Killed by Own Men, Belief Zuta then, the investigation concluded, was killed by his own gangsters, the men he directed in the Lingle slaying and who feared he had “squealed” on them to save himself. The woman in the case was a mysterious one to whom Zuta made numerous telephone calls while he was registered at the Delafield hotel under an assumed name. This woman, the police believed, pretended to remain his ally while in truth she was keeping posted on his every move so she could inform his former friends when to strike.

RUSS WHEAT TO AFFECT WORLD. EXPERTS’ VIEW Production for This Year to Be 2,000,000 Tons Higher, Estimate. BY VIRGIL PINKLEY United Press Staff Correspondent LONDON, Aug. 4. —Wheat exports of Soviet Russia may be the greatest influence on the world wheat market in the next three months, grain experts in London agreed today, but they expressed conviction that the cause of present low prices must be found elsewhere. In summarizing the wheat situation, various authorities pointed out that it has become common practice to seize any possible cause, such as a big Russian crop, to account for the rising and lowering of wheat in other markets. “It is a fact that too much wheat! is being grown year by year,” said George Broomhall, editor of the Corn Trade News. “As long as governments and pools continue to meddle with the problem, the farmer’s lot will go from bad to worse.” 390,000,000 Carry Over The world “carry over” of wheat was estimated officially at 390,000,000 bushels, which was described aa the real basic cause of present prices, which averaged at Liverpool about three shillings per 100 pounds less than a year ago. The “invisible reserves” of Europe were estimated by the British ministry of agriculture as below 1929 reserves and it was said Poland probably will not export this year, since her crop will be from 6 to 8 per cent smaller. Authentic American sources said it was now believed the total crop in the twenty-seven principal countries of Europe would be 250,000,000 quarters, contrasted with 259,000,000 in 1929. “The crops in Artenov and the Ukraine are extremely bountiful,” said a spokesman at the Russian embassy. “The Gomel region in white Russia is harvesting the richest crop which the acreage will yield since the war.”

Market Is Untaxed The spokesman said a steady British market was best for Russian exports because it is untaxed. He also confirmed reports that the 1930 crop in Russia would be 17,000,000 tons, 2,000,000 tons above the 1929 crop. He said 10,000,000 tons will be consigned to the collective farms of the soviet states and the Remainder sold to individual farmers. It was understood Russia sold 100,000 tons of wheat on the continent last week at prices fixed on the basis of the Liverpool market. Wheat importers at Liverpool expected Russia would export in the* next year more than 5,444,000 quarters of wheat. An official at the Farmers Club said the demand for home-filled flour constantly is decreasing. “We are watching the Russian imports to Britain,” he said. “Since the new Azimas wheat is of excellent quality, it should yield a good length of flour.” It was observed that imports of United States wheat to Liverpool have increased sharply in the last two weeks. Our hearing is said to range through eleven octaves, but our sight through only one. Anything that does not range between red and violet we can not see.
