ENGLAND AND FRANCE READY T0 USE WARSHIPS IN HALTING SUBMARINE PIRATE ATTACKS

Two Nations May Co-operate Despite Crisis Caused as Italy Denies Russia’s Charges of Undersea Forays.

WE'RE ALL BACK

There were 3000 new pupils and also some new teachers when city schools Russell, was pretty thrilled when she started her first class. She’s opened today. Miss Helen Healy starts her teaching career at No. 2, Walnut and

Delaware Sts, by gréeting her 2A and 3B pupils.

chant shipping in violation “not only of the principles of humanity but, also the most elementary princip of international law.”

Russia unqualifiedly demanded: (1) Discontinuation of submarine attacks; (2) Full compensation for damages done to Russian shipping; (3) Compensation to sailors of attacked vessels; (4) Exemplary punishment of those guilty of the attacks. :

Italy in a bulletin announced: “To this (Russian) note the foreign ministry replied that Italy rejects responsibility and at the same time rejects in total the demands of the Soviet Government.”

No Withdrawal Seen

There seemed no possible withdrawal for either country from the stand it had taken—an unqualified demand and an unqualified rejection. Immediate speculation concerned the possibility that Russia might break relations with Italy and seek —at whatever suicidal cost—to convoy her merchant shipping through the Mediterranean. : Secondly it was asked whether Italy would attend the Mediterranean conference at all if Russia did. It was feared that if Italy did attend the conference, that Russia would accuse her there of submarine attacks on neutral shipping and that Italy would withdraw from the conference—to leave pther nations to take what action they

liked as regards the submarine:

menace, Diplomatically, the first seriousnass of the Russian note was that it mentioned Italy as the attacking nation. Everybody in Europe

who reads the newspapers knows that every statesman believes that the “pirate” submarines operating in the Mediterranean are Italian, Officially, however, even in their most ' angry moments, British, French and’ other leaders have refrained carefully fromm mentioning Italy because they ‘hoped to find some way of ending the attacks— some way shoit'of a’ formal European agreement to pool navies against the submarines and wage ah official, if undeclared, war on them,

Would Be Arraigned

Now there was the apparent certainty that if Italy did go to the Lake Geneva: conference she would be arraigned at once as the “pirate” nation and that Russia would draw other nations into a- dispute in which fighfirig words had been blazoned to the world. No one who knew anything of the temper and temperament of Premier Mussolini believed ‘that he would concede an inch to any demands made on him in any such circumstanges., | . Sha Rather, it had been feared even before the Russian note that Italy, at the Mediterranean conference, would take occasion to.demand that the Spanish Rebels be recognized as belligerents in- the civil war. and thus bring the wnole Spanish crisis to the fzont again. . For five weeks submarines have been - attacking peaceful merchantmen in the Mediterranean; more than a score of ships totaling 90,000 tons and including a British destroyer have beer attacked; ‘nine totaling 39,000 tons and belonging to six nafidns, Have been actually sunk, and in some attacks life was lost.

ican flags which still flew over the mission. The American Consulate decided to protest the reported occupation. - The news was brought by two members of the Adventist Mission, C. C. Morris of Mount Vernon, O., and E. L. Longway of South Lancaster, Mass. They visited the mil-lion-dollar mission, which covers two blocks on the banks of the Yangtze. The compound, they said, was occupied by 50 Japanese bluejackets, with several machine guns and sandbag barricades. The American Chamber of Commerce, after an emergency meeting, sent ‘a message to Secretary of State Hull asking that President Roosevelt’s statement, urging immediate evacuation, interpreted here as meaning Americans would be abandoned to their fate if they failed to leave, be “clarified immediately.” Americans here, angry at what they believed was a withdrawal of American protection for nationals abroad, vigorously urged President Roosevelt to adopt “a foreign policy with a strong front, and keep the American .flag waving.” ‘Get Some Guts,’ F. D. R. Told A 20-year veteran in the settlement, Mark L. Moody, formerly of

to the President to ‘get off his yacht, get on his feet, and get some guts above them.” “Shanghai Americans are not quitters!” the petition said. Feeling was more intense in the American community than at any time since fighting. broke out, as rumors spread that the cruiser Augusta was ready to leave. The critical situation was emphasized by orders to American Marines

| to have their families ready for

“compulsory evacuation” on a few hours notice. The American consulate general urged immediate evacuation of "all Americans from interior towns in the Shanghai-Nanking area, where the fiercest fighting of the Shénghai war is believed to be imminent. The U. S. gunboat Sacramento was ordered into refugee service. It will take Americans out of the area, either to Manila or Hongkong. This action and the President's announcement emphasized the extreme gravity of the situation for foreign nationals. Many American businessmen in Shanghai flatly announced they would “take their chances” in the war area rather than abandon their businesses which in many cases represented life-time work, to the hazards of war. :

CITY BELIEVED MISSING WAVE

~ OF PARALYSIS!

Health Heads Say Disease ~ Now ‘at Standstil’ ~ Through State.

Indianapolis probably has escaped the infantile paralysis wave, Dr. Herman Morgan, Health Board secretary, said today. Dr. Verne K. Harvey, State Health Board superintendent, described the Indiana situation as “not alarming” and “at a standstill.”

Only seven cases have been reported since Jan. 1. The peak year here was 1916 when 30 persons were stricken with the disease, Dr. Mor-gan-said. : Four of the cases in Indianapolis this year have developed since July but with cooler weather near, officials predict few more will be reported. Situation Not Alarming

“Although three persons have died here recently from infantile paralysis, the situation is not alarming. The chief threat is the nearness of great waves in other cities in the Middle West,” Dr. Morgan said. “With the end of hot, sultry weather, the danger of transmission of the disease will be minimized,” he added. Dr. Harvey said 10 cases were reported last week in eight counties.

“The fact that the cases are widespread reduces the danger. Since there were 16 reported one week in July, the number has been lessening each week,” Dr. Harvey said.

620 New Paralysis

Cases Are Listed WASHINGTON, Sept. 7 (U. P.). —The U. S. Public Health Service today announced that 620 new cases of infantile paralysis were reported in the week ended Aug. 28. It was the -greatest number of new cases reported in a single week this year. In the “previous week, 499 new cases were reported and in the corresponding week last year, there were only 164 cases. New York State led in today’s report with’ the number of new cases reported, 64 in the week ended Aug. 28. Other top states were Massachusetts, 51; Ohio, 50; Illinois, 46; California, 44; Texas, 34; Michigan, 31; Missouri, 29; Colorado, 28; Oklahoma, 25.

DR. SCHACHT QUITS; BERLIN RUMORS SAY

BERLIN, Sept. 7 (U. P.)—Rumors

prevailed in financial circles today that Dr. Hjalmar Schacht was resigning as acting Minister of Economics. One version held that Dr. Schacht would also resign from the presidency of the Reichsbank and would be succeeded by Count Lutz Schwer-

in von Krosigk, the present Minister | Schacht recently |

of Finance. Dr. has withdrawn gradually from affair of the Ministry of Economics because of his disagreement with various phases of Nazi economics, chiefly concerned with the four-year plan.

Hollywood's ‘Paul Bunyan’ To Answer Robbery Charge

: By HENRY > J

M’LEMORE

United Press Staff Correspondent . ELIZABETHTOWN, N. Y., Sept. 7.—Two alleged participants in a

“youthful indiscretion” of 1930 were in town today—one, John Montague, Hollywood's Paul Bunyan golfer, to be arraigned on a first degree robbery charge after seven years; the other, Roger Norton, who had paid the fiddler, to renew his acquaintance with jails because he is a

material witness. ; Montague came barging from Syracuse in a snappy car, immaculately dressed in the best Hollywood fashion. He disappeared from these, his native heaths, shortly after bandits robbed a roadhouse in Jay. N. Y,, seven years ago, struck it rich as a pal of the movie stars of Hollywood, made his name into a legend, and was unmasked finally as the fugitive Laverne Moore. or ? 1 His acquaintance with jails comiprise a few hours in one in Los Angeles while his movie friends were getting his bail together, and a few days in the local bastile before a judge set $25,000 as the price of his freedom. Norton, snappily attired in a truck driver's best, arrived in the custody of the district attorney. He didn't mind when he was put into storage until early October, when he wiil testify against Montague who, he said, was Laverne Moore, a companion of his youth, who helped him rob the roadhouse. For that offense Norton had served two and one-half years in Dannemora Prison and was working in Cleveland when the district attorney found him. Today's arraignment will be chiefly. an opportunity for Montague to plead to the charge against him. He and his attorneys have talked of a “youthful indiscretion” and of a “man reincarnate.” He will plead not guilty and, his $25,000 bail continued, leave for Hollywood where he has some business affairs to settle before his trial. .

The 691 inhabitants of this Adirondack hamlet always get up early. There are cows to be milked, chickens to be fed, and vegetables to be picked.

Today they got up earlier than usual, did their chores in a hurry, and rushed off to the Court House. They felt a tremendous personal curiosity bedause Montague was for-

merly known to them as Laverne Moore, of the neighboring town of Port Henry. That was in 1930, when, aecording to the district attorney, Laverne Moore used his Sandow strength and icy nerve to brutally beat an aged man who attempted to thwart him and his three companions in the road house robbery. When Moore, which Montague readily admits is his real Thame, comes, . before the Essex County judge, the 400 seats will be packed, as will the windows and doors. All the citizens think that the arraignment of the friend of Bing Crosby, Guy Kibbee, Oliver Hardy, and other celebrated Hollywood folk, is Elizabethitown’s biggest day. z

POLICE SCHOOL BELL SILENT, LACK PUPILS

Theo H. Dammeyer, Safety Board president, today was looking for a “help wanted” sign. It seems the Board has 19 vacancies on the Police force which it has

to fill. According to regulations, the, ‘jobs must be filled by a Police Merit

School. : Now, fo open a school there must be at least 50 applicants. Many applicants cannot pass the physical examination, so there should be nearly 100 applications to warrant opening a school. When Mr. Dammeyer thumbed through the applications today, he found only 61.

As a remedy they are urging iucreased taxes, through a broadening of the base as well as steepening the rates, and constantly reduced govefnmental expenditures. New Dealers point out that much of the extraordinary outlay represents loans which will be paid back and therefore should not be charged off against tax revenues. The $573,757,094 breaks down as follows: Loans closed $261,963.417; insured $27,608,931, and grants $284,184,746.
