STIMSON NOTE MAY BOLSTER KELLOGG PACT U. S. Insistence That Paris Treaty Be Respected Sets World Precedent. BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Srrt>n-Hwr<l Feretsu Editor WASHINGTON, Jan, 9—Politely, hut firmly, the United States has served notice on Japan that this government does not now, nor will in the future, recognize the conquest of Manchuria. Obviously anxious over the capture of Chinchow and the continued drive of the mikado's troops westward and southward toward Mongolia Tind China proper, Washington has dispatched identic notes to Tokio end Nanking making this quite clear. Though Japan may oe in possession of Manchuria now, the United States will expert her eventually to get out just, as she got out of Shantung. League Solution Seen Tt, look seven years to get Japan to evacuate Shantung, but from May, 1915, until the last days of the Washington conference in 1921, the United States and the. other great powers never ceased to bring pressure to bear on Japan to Induce her to restore the peninsula to China. "With the recent military operations about Chinchow,” the note addressed to Tokio declares, ‘‘the last remaining administrative authority of the government of the Chinese republic in South Manchuria, as it existed prior to Sept. 18, 1931. has been destroyed. "The American government continues confident, that the work of the neutral commission recently authorized by the council of the League of Nations will facilitate an ultimate solution of the difficulties now existing between China and Japan. Supports Paris Part "But in view of the present, situation and of its own rights and obligations therein, the American government deems it to be its duty to notify both the imperial Japanese government, and the government of the Chinese republic that, it can not admit the legality of any situation dr facto. "Nor does it intend to recognize any treaty or agreement, entered into between those governments, or agents thereof, which may impair the, treaty rights of the. United States or its citizens in China, including those which relate to the sovereignty, the independence, or the territorial and administrative integrity of the Republic of China, commonly known as the open door policy. "It does not. intend to recognize any situation, treaty or agreement which may be brought about by means contrary to the covenants and obligations of the pact of Paris of Aug. 27. 1928, to which treaty both China and Japan, as well as the United States, arc parties.” Other Powers May Follow The last fifty words of this note may make it historic. For while the first half follows precedent, conforming pretty closely to the warning of 1915 subsequent to Japan's seizure of Shantung, the second half creates a precedent which if followed through may greatly strengthen the Kellogg pact. Ts the other powers signatory to Ihe pact formally adhere to the new or implied “Stimson doctrine” that no “situation, treaty or agreement brought about by means contrary to the covenants and obligations of the pact, of Paris" will be recognized, a new international doctrine will have been born.

BY BEN STERN ALTHOUGH not of political nature or content, a couple of good yarns are traveling about the city by word of mouth which should be passed on to General Publica. If old man Aesop were alive he would be able to work them into a pair of fables, but they are good stories, anyhow. The first concerns a well-k.nowji Indianapolis capitalist who is as hot after publicity as a chorus girl after the spotlight. He has in his employ a publicity man. and his general sanctimonious and public service attitude has resulted in the nickname of the "Whited Sepulchre.” They tell me that some time ago he was attending a bridge party at the home of a near relative. It, was a congenial crowd and, to add to the conviviality, the cocktail shaker got a good play. a a a During the course of the evening, there was evident a smell of smoke and it was thought that there was a fire in thd attic. When the hostess announced the fact, and said she was going to call the fire department, the "Whited Sepulchre” was out of his chair in a bound. "Why, you can't call the fire department,” he expostulated. “If they come out here and find this liquor! My, what it will mean to my reputation and standing in the community,” he declared to the stupefaction of the guests. "What do you want, me to do? Let the house burn down?” asked the hostess. All went to the attic to see what the trouble could be and the fire was speedily extinguished without calling the fire department. When they returned to the main floor, 10, and behold, the great public figure had vanished! Aesop would have a moral for that one. n a a The. other yarn concerns prominent Indianapolis industrialist who is a director in a large downtown bank. For a long time he had between 360,000 and ,SBO,OOO on time deposit in this bank. Then along came the agreement of the Clearing House Association to slash the interest rate and the businessman hotfooted it to his bank to see if they could lift .the cut as far as it applied to his deposit. When he was denied this bit of favoritism, which would have meant S3OO in additional interest for the year, the industrialist withdrew the money and placed it in the City Trust Company, over the protests of his friends and associates. Shortly thereafter the City Trust nose-dived and gone was the $60,000. The only moral is, simply, "pigs is pigs.”

BUSINESS AND INDUSTRIAL NEWS

W COMPLEX DELAYS ERA OF BETTERTIMES Mental Attitude Greatly Affects Recovery of Business. BY LEN T. TAGGART The American people have developed a "no” complex where the expenditure of money is involved. This extends to both buyer and seller. For several years, up to and including 1929, spending became a habit, with no one giving thought to the future. These years were a buying market. After the crash of late 1929 and throughout the following year, we were carried along by the momentum of the previous years’ business, and the hopes of overnight recovery of business. There was little change in the buying habits of the people until the fall of 1930, but as the months 1 rolled by and business continued to slow down at an alarming rate, we began to say "no.” We awakened from our "fools’ paradise” to face the fact that it was time to begin the huge task of putting our house in order. Salesmen Discouraged With the exception of. certain lines of business this adjustment has been accomplished. We have been given strong medicine. Some have died; the strong have come through though still a bit shaky. This has been a most complete, though necessary, national house cleaning. During 1931 the mental attitude of the American people has been "No.” We have neither bought nor sold. We have acquired the habit of saying "No.” Salesmen have heard "No” so much this last year that they have decided there is no use trying, so much has the complex affected them. How can we expect a recovery of business when the man selling goods has no confidence in himself or his merchandise, and the merchants over the country, regardless of their needs, still say “No,” and refuse to replenish their stocks. thereby keeping the great body of the American public afraid to spend its earnings? Money Is Plentiful There is but one way. It is now time for merchants and business men again to take stock of themselves. The new year of 1932 can see a revival of business, but this recovery must start with our business men. Regardless of what has happened in the last two years, there is still plenty of money in the hands of the American people, and these same people will s.pqpd provided they are convinced they are receiving 100 per cent value for every dollar that they spend. Holding price levels above their 1932 value will not get business, but many businesses are doing just this very thing. These business men are fooling themselves, not the public, and this method will only retard the recovery of business, because the American people have become, in the last two years, a nation of discriminating buyers, and today they do know values. Good Judgment Needed Lets not imitate the ostrich during 1932, but rather let us face I the conditions as they exist. The ! keen business man will start anew ] to rebuild confidence in himself, his goods, his services. He will meet ! the buyer even more than half way by replenishing his stocks, advertise ; sound values at a fair 1932 price, and the public will buy. This in ; turn will start the manufacturer and put to work the great majority ! of the unemployed, who again will have money to spend. Only business men can restore ! confidence. It can not be done by j the man with a negative mind—the | "no” complex. He is beaten before I he starts. Then let all of us use sound busii ness judgment during 1932, but let’s ■ right now cast off this "no” com- ! plex. Accident Victim Buried 1 By Times Special PRINCETON. Ind.. Jan. 9.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Clogged Car Radiator Dangerous Unless the radiator freezes up and causes trouble, motorists are quite likely to forget the important part it plays in the motor. Even in the coldest weather, if the cooling system of a car is not operating properly, the motorist only is inviting serious trouble. Summer troubles with a radiator make themselves known. A leak soon has the water boiling, and it gets attention. But in the winter, when cold winds cool the radiator, one thinks things are all right and travels along blissfully ignorant of the fact that his motor may be overheating, that scale and mud may have decreased his radiator’s capacity to only a small fraction of the need, and that it may not even be circulating the water. Then, unexpectedly, the radiator boils over. The anti-freeze solution goes out with the rest, and the motorist has lost more than it would have cost to keep the radiator in order. Mud and scale are the principal fes to good radiator action, according to Vern Reed of Reed-Mueller, Inc., the radiator specialists, at 111119 Kentucky avenue. Impediments block the passageways in extreme cases, but they also adhere to the walls and reduce the radiating capacity by their insulation. Cleaning the entire cooling system of the automobile by the method in use at Reed-Mueller’s is only a thirty-minute job. They do not "boil out” radiators in a strong alkaline solution, because experience has shown this damages the core. Instead they have a special treatment that gets the dirt out from the radiator, the hose lines and the cylinder block. All troubles with radiators are remedied at this shop. New cores can be placed when necessary, damages repaired, and the cooling system put into shape to withstand all the strain of hard driving. Many motorists have found that having their hot water heaters cleaned by the Reed-Mueller process restores satisfactory service of the heater.

Sea Foods Seized Fresh Are Wholesome, Delicious

Oyster House Is Receiving Constant Increase in Patronage, Inland people certainly enjoy seafoods, probably because for a large part of the year it Is not safe for these to be eaten, and the season is comparatively short. That seems to give a keener zest to oysters especially. At the Philadelphia Oyster House, 105 East Ohio street, a greater enjoyment is possible because every oyster that gets to this place comes from the dredgers in the shell, and is opened just before being served. Not many restaurants will take this trouble, for there is quite a knack in "shucking oysters” and not all have it. But where this is done there is a better flavor to the oyster, noticeable either when it is eaten raw or when it is served in one of the delicious stews that have made this place famous among the discriminating. These patrons will tell you about the wholesomeness of the oyster as food, about the benefit of the iodine found in this bivalve in such large measure, and many other reasons why one should eat oysters, but one is led to suspect that the real reason is that they vaste so good. Fresh from the shell, an oyster is different from the frozen product, and certainly widely different from the canned product. The Philadelphia Oyster House does not serve any canned goods, and this goes for the shrimp, scallops, clams and anything else in the line of seafood. Moreover, these oysters are selected from special beds. They are from clean waters, coves where the purifying salt water is not contaminated. and are supplied to the special order of J. W. Everingham, proprietor. whose sole life has been devoted to the oyster business, and who for eighteen years has catered

STREET CARS VITAL COMMUNITY ASSET

Entire City Benefited by Speedy and Economical Transportation. BY J. J. BEDLOW What does a street car line do for the people who never use it? It may seem a paradoxical question, but as a matter of fact the benefit conferred upon the entire city by the street cars in many cases is very great and at no time inconsiderable. Beginning with the man of modest means, the first benefit he receives is in better living conditions. With a good street car system the necessity of slums has gone, and they generally are maintained only by the desire of certain people to live under such conditions. TTianks to an easy way of transportation, dependable and at low expense, a man may raise his family under surroundings that make for betterment. He may rent or own a home in a section of the city where the surroundings are more to his taste, and where he has the advantage of the newer schools for his children, the benefit of good neighbors and the wholesomeness of a detached home. Would these be possible without frequent and low priced transportation? Then for those who never use the cars, people such as landlords and real estate men reap the best benefits. The property of such people is valuable only as it is accessible. The landlord could not easily rent a place where dependence had to be placed entirely on Grand Jury to Meet By Times Special RICHMOND, Ind., Jan. 9.—A Wayne county grand jury will be convened here Monday to remain in session for two days, according to Prosecutor E.

to the Indianapolis trade at the same location. The oyster’s humbler brother, the clam, is liked as well by some folks. It, too, comes In the shell to this place and is opened as served. People say that Everingham’s special clam chowder is something entirely different and worthy of a letter home any time. Fish, frog legs and other aquatic delights may be had at this restaurant, and folks do say that the deviled crabs served here are something one remembers with delight for a long time. There’s a shrimp salad compounded here from fresh shrimp that will go down to fame as a gastronomic achievement. Those who like a change in diet and who know how well seafoods can be prepared and how delicious they taste, go to Everingham’s, expecting the unusual—and increasing patronage shows they are not disappointed.

private means of transportation, nor would the real estate man find it easy to sell such a place. So one sees, in the advertisements of property for sale or to rent, the significant phrase, “near to a car line.” Ends Parking Problem A third class that could not exist except for this means of transportation is theaters and stores. They must be downtown, and people must come to them. If father has the auto in use, how is mother to go to the special sale? Anyhow, where is mother to park the car down town? It is a lot easier to take a street car, get off at the store, and have a car ready to go back home on. Nor are these the only people benefited. Here is a great concern, employing hundreds of people and distributing a pay roll in Indianapolis alone of $43,700 a week, as well as paying taxes of $243,500 a year toward the upkeep of the civic machine. Yet for years the street cars have seen a steadily dwindling income, a steadily increasing traffic that has interfered with making the schedules necessary to economic operation, and a host of other perplexities. Boosters Are Needed No voice has been raised in aid; no praise has been offered, but there has been plenty of criticism when anything went wrong. Street car companies realize the necessity of being a part of the community, and the company operating in this city is in local control, so that it is inclined to do all it can for the city’s welfare. Is it too much, therefore, to ask the people of the city to do with it as they would do with any other big industry, become boosters as well as patrons? George C. Forrey Jr. is receiver for both the Indianapolis street railway and the motor coach company.
