Thus the Government statement of last night was extended to embrace a world policy in which Japan presumably would be united firmly ‘with the other “have not” nations, * including her allies of the German-Ttalian-Japanese “anti-Communist” : front, and at the same time would ! reserve for herself the future of vast { China with its untold wealth, its : 450 million people and its 4,480,000 * square miles of territory, regardless * of such nations as Great Britain, France'and the United States which

U. S. Waits Reply ‘To ‘Open Door’ Note
WASHINGTON, Nov. 3 (U.P) — ‘State Department officials gave no sfficial cognizance today to a Jap‘anese announcement of plans to solidify political and economic control of China in contravention of the “open door” policy. They awaited an official clarification of Japan’s plans in answer to 3 bluntly worded note delivered to the Japanese Foreign Office Oct. 6. That note recited a long list of Japanese discriminations against American interests, and demanded that Japan give assurance that such discrimination and interference with this country’s interests in China be discontinued. Economists believed that Japan could not afford to engage in an economic struggle with the United States—the implied threat back of the note’s demands.

MUNICH SHIFTS U.S. POSITION, CLAPPER SAYS
England’s Decline Requires New Alertness From Washington.
By RAYMOND CLAPPER Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.—To be sure, it will be interesting to see whether, on next Tuesday, the Democrats lose the 25 seats in Congress that Democratic Chairman Farley concedes, or the Republicans gain the 75 seats that some of their leaders claim. That will settle no end of election bets. But there's other news in the papers that means much more to the future of the United States, because we have moved into a period where, for America, events are shaping our destiny. : Weigh these headlines: “Japan proclaims domination of all Eastern Asia.” “Germany and Italy decide controversy between Czechoslovakia and Hungary; Britain not consulted.” “Chamberlain acknowledges German domination of Central and Southeastern Europe.” “Secretary Hull warns totalitarian nations there’ll be no compromise in trade policies of .U. S.” New Role for U. S. There, in four headlines from papers which have just reached my desk, is unfolding the new- postMunich world. In those developments are being written the new role which the United States must play no matter whether the Democrats or the Republicans elect that Senator in Kansas. No matter who is in the White House during the next few years, be it Roosevelt, Senator Barkley, Tom Dewey, Bruce Barton or one of those Martians imported by Orson Welles, his lines are being written for him now, to be trumpeted out of the, horn of time. Japan dominating the East. Germany dominating Europe. Britain, under whose protection we have been so secure thorughout our whole national history, now strug-
,gling to keep afloat, no longer the
arbiter of Europe, no longer the policeman of the world, no longer able to stand as the first line of defense for our Monroe Doctrine. That is the new world. From the birth of this nation, we have lived in a world ruled by Great Britain. Now she is only a fourth hand in a game run by Germany, Italy and Japan. France has her hands full trying to escape from complete collapse. So, for the first time in these 162 years of American independence, we are definitely on our own, with no mother England to guide us. Hull Rejects Compromise Secretary Hull made plain in his foreign trade speech in New York this week that, despite England’s capitulation, we will go ahead on a policy of no compromise with autarchy. Chamberlain of necessity must follow a compromise policy. Likewise our Ambassador to
‘Great Britain, Joe Kennedy, sug-
gested in his Trafalgar Day speech that we ought to quit “hammering away at what are regarded as irreconcilables” and not persist in “un-
relenting antagonisms.” But Secretary Hull doesn’t see it that way. Roosevelt doesn’t either. We choose to stand our ground—lone if we have to. This is not a simple undertaking. It will require not only much more military preparedness, and not only a static quantitative preparedness, figured in numbers of ships, but a dynamic preparedness, measure as a going, producing plant. All of that will require internal industrial and economic readjustments.
NEW YORK, Nov. 3 (U. P.).—The National Foreign Trade Association urged the Government today to demand adequate protection of American property rights abroad and aid in halting the “unfair” bartering activities of Germany and other totalitarian nations in Latin-Amer-ican markets. The traders adopted a resolution at their 25th national convention establishing a committee to find means of preventing countries that acquire goods by barter from reselling them in this and other markets where cash is paid for {foreign products. The study was prompted, traders said, by heavy losses sustained in Latin-American and other markets.

Hungary Gets Most of Her Demands in Vienna Negotiations.
LONDON, Nov, 3 (U. P.) —Foreign Secretary Lord Halifax told the House of Lords today that Premier
Benito Mussolini had “made it clear” that Italy expects a victory by Rebel
the Spanish civil war. Opening debate on the Government’s proposal to put the new British-Italian friendship treaty into effect as approved last night by the House of Commons, the Foreign Secretary -moved that the House “welcome” the Government’s plan. “It has never been true, and is not true today, that the Anglo-Ital-jan agreement has value as a lever, as some think, which might be used to make Italy desist from supporting Franco's forces,” Lord Halifax said. «premier Mussolini has always made clear from the first that he is not prepared to see Franco defeated.” Prime Minister Chamberlain was confined to his home by a cold an missed the continuation of debate in Commons.
Election Cheer Tories
After a debate that lasted until late last night, the Commons adopted by 345 votes against 138 a Government motion expressing its approval of the Government's intention to recognize ,Italy’s. conquest and put the British-Italian friendship treaty into effect. The Government was further encouraged by the final returns in municipal elections over a large portion of England and Wales. The final returns showed that Conservative candidates had won 20 seats net in the elections. The Labor Party lost 17, the Liberals 2 and Independents 1. War came close to Great Britain yesterday when a Spanish Rebel armed auxiliary vessel wrecked the Loyalist steamship ‘Cantabria seven miles off the east coast. Guns in action were heard in Britain for the first time since the World War,

Wilson’s Work Undone In 75 Minutes
VIENNA, Nov. 3. (U. P.)—The Vienna conference adjourned ‘harmoniously today after a 75-minute session which revised the map of Central Europe for the third. time this autumn by granting Hungary 4635 square miles of territory and 850,000 inhabitants of Czechoslovakia. Hungary got most of the Czechoslovak territory that she had demanded—a solid strip along the full length of her northern border. Although the delegates from all four nations—Germany, Italy, Hungary and Czechoslovakia—were leaving here with shows of cordiality and mutual reliance, reports from Praha and Budapest indicated that the treaty they had signed was being widely denounced by Czechoslovak and Hungarian citizens. ; Czech government spokesmen described the treaty as “a severe blow.” Hungarians demonstrated in Budapest, shouting: “We want Bratislava back; we want everything; we want a common frontier with Poland.” Only two of Hungary's demands were rejected. Czechoslovakia was allowed to retain Bratislava, capital of Slovakia Province and one of the most important cities in the country. Czechoslovakia also was allowed to retain the northern part of Ruthenia Province. Hungary got the capital, gUzhorod, and all other important cities, - but Czechoslovakia was left with the desolate, mountainous northern part. This Czech fragment will be economically dependent on the area that Hungary took, and it will be isolated from the rest of the country as the only railroad connecting it with the rest of the country to the west is in the area ceded to Hungary. The 75-minute session, ruled by Joachim von Ribbentrop and Count Galeazzo Ciano, Foreign Ministers of Germany and Italy, revised the Treaty of Trianon, which Georges Clemenceau, David Lloyd George and Woodrow Wilson had spent months to write.

HOLLYWOOD, Nov. 3 (U. P)— Nine women and three gray-haired men today considered the modesty—
that’s the word she used—of Miss Sally Rand, clothed only in pink grease paint and the comfortingly dim rays of a No. 37 moonlight-blue spotlight. The women, mostly wearing glasses and frowns, and. the men, looking as disinterested- as possible under the circumstances, composed the jury hearing the celebrated case of the arm Sally bit, or did she? They were to decide whether, for the sake of modesty, she might defend herself from too candid cameras. Ray Stanford, a farmer whose testimony was as candid as his
camera, told in detail how Miss

Abbey Tomb Diggers Find Grave Error
LONDON, Nov. 3 (U. P.).— They opened the wrong grave in the Poet’s Corner of Westminster Abbey — and so the historic Shakespeare literary mystery remains unsolved. The attempt to prove, by digging into the tomb of Poet Edmund Spenser, that Francis Bacon was the real author of William Shakespeare’s dramas, ended suddenly when experts of the Baconian Society decided that they had dug into the wrong tomb. As a result, they abandoned their search for an original Shakespeare manuscript that might have solved the 170-year-old dispute. The society had received permission for the excavations on the argument that they . might find the answer to the old mystery. They contended that famous literary figures of the day, including Shakespeare - but not including Bacon, had dropped yritten tributes on Spenser’s casket. If they could find the Shakespeare manuscript, they said, it would enable them to identify Shakespeare's handwriting and thus they might be able to end the dispute.

Prosecutor David Hoffman insisted that Miss Rand was & public figure who had no right biting customers because they took her picture. ’ Milton Golden, defense attorney, countered that Miss Rand was -just a little girl trying to earn a living at the work she knew best—and how could she do that if folks insiste . - which

in the police cars were constructed from used radio parts at the police radié station at Willard Park under the supervision of Capt. Robert L. Batts. Chief Morrissey said a saving of more than $8000 will result from the use of home-made sets. He said the outright purchase of the equipment with instalation would have cost approximately $12,000. Indianapolis was the: fourth city in the world to use police radio in 1929, he said. Lack of funds, the chief said, has prevented use of the two-way system until now. Chief Morrissey indicated that he might solicit the funds for completion of the system by public subscription in case the State Tax Board refuses to restore the fund item. Closer Contact Possible The greatest advantage in twoway radio, by which cars may remain in constant two-way communication with the dispatcher, is in cases of pursuit, the chief said. “When a car is chasing escaping criminals in an automobile the officers can keep headquarters posted as to their route,” he said. “This will permit the dispatcher to direct other cars in the pursuit. Very often police cars are outdistanced by fleeing felons; this cannot be helped. However, when this happens it is important that headquarters be informed to permit them to direct other cars to surround the area of escape. “The two-way system also will materially aid in the pursuit of criminals who are fleeing on foot.” Chief Morrissey said the new twoway system will eliminate repeating and telephoning. He pointed out that officers find it difficult in many areas to find telephones when in a hurry. . The next most important advantag, he said, is the operation of police in disasters and big emergencies, fires, bank holdups, floods and the like. Capt. Batts said the installation of the new system “makes the greatest advance in police radio here in 10 years.”
