2-WHEELCARTS FEED JAPAN'S ARMY IN JEHOL Use Tens of Thousands of Odd Vehicles in Drive on Province. This is the third Installment of Frederick Whlteing's riiar written while the United Press Staff Correspondent was advancing with the Japanese forces through the Chinese Province of Jehol. The difference in dates Is due to the time occupied bv mail from the Far East war acenes. BV FREDERICK WHITEING United Press Staff Correspondent WITH THE JAPANESE ARMY MOTOR TRANSPORT, BETWEEN CHAOYANG AND YEHBEISHOU, March 2.—1 am staying tonight in a tumbledown shack in a village, whose name I do not know, where the motor truck column I am accompanying halted for the night. The cold is biting. It is well below zero. Luckily we have found a candle and a quantity of kaoliang stalks and some pieces of wood, with which to build fire of sorts under the stove-bed. which has missed destruction by the fleeing soldiery. We have no water, so the hardtack and a small can of army beef go down rather dry for our supper. Some milk chocolate and a few biscuits add a dash of luxury. Today, before leaving Chaoyang, a Japanese major found time to take me around. It had not been damaged by fighting or Japanese bombs, but the Chinese troops, before fleeing, had wrecked many buildings. The major was overjoyed to see that the Chaoyang streets were thronged with people—he said the numbers were much greater than o the preceding day, and evidently showed that the inhabitants were returning, reassured by the Japanese. Carts Bring Food By l nited I’rr** WITH THE JAPANESE ARMY, EIGHTH DIVISIONAL HEADQUARTERS, LINGYUAN. JEHOL, March 4.—Apart from the motor truck corps, an exceedingly important, feature of the Japanese armytransport, is the tens of thousands of Chinese two-wheeled carts brought in from Manchuria. The army is depending very largely on these carts to bring up its food, material and equipment from the rear. These carts have a capacity of about a quarter of a ton, and are loaded with bags of rice, wheat, kegs of shoyu < sauce made from beans), miso-shiro (a kind of bean paste, brownish In color, from which soup is made), cooking utensils and equipment. Riding with the motor transport corps, I have passed a seemingly endless stream of these carts, divided into sections of 75 or 100 carts, each with its guard of Japanese infantry. The drivers, dirty but warmly clad and apparently well fed, sit on the shafts or walk alongside, flicking their long whiplashes at the animals’ heads, which results in many of the latter being blind. The animals are a queer assortment, being mostly mules and donkeys, with some horses, Usually three, but sometimes two and sometimes four animals pull each cart. These animals nearly all are in good condition and well fed. In great contrast to the vicious tendencies of the famous American army mule, the Manchurian mule is well-mannered and docile. Democrats Get State Jobs Democrats were appointed today to succeed Republicans in state mine jobs. Ed Rogers, Linton, and Patrick McGuigan Carbon were appointed deputy mine inspectors and Thomas Silcox, Terre Haute, was chosen to be in charge of the mine rescue depot at Terre Haute.

ARTHUR JORDAN PLANS BATTLE Million-Dollar Balm Suit Allegations Denied in Court Reply. Arthur Jordan, 72-year-old Indianapolis philanthropist and multimillionaire, will fight every allegation in the million-dollar breach of promise suit of Mrs. Margaret E. Melter, former Goshen rooming house operator. This was apparent today as the suit, filed almost a year ago, came to issue in the court of Superior Judge | Clarence E. Weir. Legal technicalities, incident to setting the case for trial were completed today, with filing of a general denial by Jordan's attorneys. Mrs. Melter charges Jordan, in 1931, refused to carry out a promise to marry her. “I now am the happiest and most satisfied man in America,” are words her suit attributes to Jordan. This was after an alleged courtj ship, the suit contends, during which Jordan sent her many letters, post cards, and telegrams. “She won’t get a dollar. There’s | nothing to this,” Jordan declared | shortly after the suit was filed by Mrs. Melter’s attorneys. “There never was anything be- | tween us,” Jordan said, explaining, however, that he knew her. ROOSEVELT, LEHMANN FIGHT TO JURE EXPERT President Wants to Take Relief from New York to Federal Post. By Scripps-Hoicard Xewspnpcr Alliance WASHINGTON, May 17.—Administration of the new hunger relief act is being delayed by a dispute between President Roosevelt and 1 Governor Lehmann of New York as i to which shall have the services of l Harry L. Hopkins, at present chairman of New York state's relief I board. Hopkins was appointed to hispresj ont position by Mr. Roosevelt while 'he was Governor of New York. His salary there is a third larger than that of the new national job. But those who are familiar with ■ his work as head of the biggest state iclief organization believe he is peculiarly qualified to take charge of distribution of the new $500,000.000 federal grant to the states.
