aps D emand Showdown Russia Over Fishing Dispute; British Open Diplomatic Drive
Terms Made Compulsory
DUBLIN, Feb. 16 (U. B).— |
nbassador in Moscow Ordered to Press: Settlement.
TOKYO, Feb. 16 (U. Py.—Japnese Ambassador Shigenori Togo t Moscow has been instructed to a showdown on the Siberian eries dispute in which Japan ‘Russia have been deadlocked or weeks, it was understood today. - Ambassador Togo was ordered to 4nform Maxim Litvinov, Russian - Foreign Commissar, that Japan was prepared to take drastic action unJess an accord was reached, it was - understood. © The new instructions, admitted - officially to be important, were sent ; by Foreign Minister Hachiro Arita. ~~ Before he acted, Minister Arita visited Emperor Hirohito, as is the practice in matters of grave ~ Moment, ‘In addition there were conferences among Army, Navy and Foreign Office leaders.
The newspaper Asahi, of inde-|
‘pendent liberal tendencies, asserted that Russia would be informed that ‘Japan was determined to continue fishing off the Russian coast and that the Russian Government must ‘accept responsibility in the event fishing without a formal agreement 4s inaugurated under armed pro‘tection. As Minister Arita sent his instructions today, Jean Jourba, second secretary of the Russian Embassy, was called to Moscow, leaving only Constantin Smetanin, charge d’affaires, and second secretary Peter Arunov to face the threatened fish_@ries crisis. . Clashes Recalled
The new instructions came after months of negotiation, and weeks during which no progress-at all had been made in a matter which Japan regards as of first importance. It was indicated that an acute situation was in prospect. Not only Have Russian and Japanese-Man-chukuan patrols clashed numerous times during recent weeks on the Siberian frontier, but only two days ago in Parliament there was a full
‘dress debate in which members re-|.
solved that the Government must take drastic action, even by force if necessary, to safeguard Japanese interests, . A wegk ago, an inspired dispatch believed} to emanate from the Foreign ce said it was believed that Russia was prepared to seize Japanese fishing boats which might ‘enter Russian territorial waters, and asserted that a provisional Russian military council had been established at Vladivostok preparatory to “dealing with the Japanese fishing fleet.” At the same time the newspaper Kokumin, which is extremely nationalistic and has a considerable circulation in military quarters, featured: proposals for United States control of Alaskan fishing waters, and pictured President Roosevelt as secretly conspiring to aid Russia against Japan.
Defaults Charged
Russia and Japan have dong disputed regarding the fisheries off Russia’s Pacific Coast. By custom, the fishing grounds are divided up into hundreds of lots. During the last year, only a provisional agreement had governed the use of the fisheries by Japanese fishermen. temporary agreement expired Dec. 31. When Japan sought last fall to press Russia into signing a permanent agreement, Commissar Litvinov first announced that the defaulted payments for Russia's share of the Chinese Eastern Railroad had to Je considered and secondly that some Jots would be withdrawn from Japanese use, as they entered into the Russian defense scheme. The 1939 fishing season does not start until about May 1, and Russia has advanced this as one reason for * refusing to hurry in negotiations.

Mexico of Nazis
. MEXICO CITY, Feb. 16 (U. P.) — The School Teachers Union, campaigning against Nazi infiltration, plastered walls throughout the city en with yellow posters bearing in _ Jarge black and red letters the heading: CL Will Hitler come to Mexico?” The posters said in part: “A few othe ago the German colony in Mexico was informed by circular of the imminent foundation of a Mexjean Natonal Socialist Party. This party has been founded already! This means that Naziism believes the time has arrived to intervene ‘in Mexico's internal affairs and signifies Hitler is fighting the Car‘denas democratic government. . “Preliminary battles already fought: Jan. 26, Jews were attacked; Jan. 27, orators insulted Cardenas; Jan. 28, they advocated open re‘bellion. “Compatriots, watch out.”

BRITAIN'S MOVE SURPRISES U. S.
Washington Likely to Delay Giving Recognition to Rebel Regime.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 16 (U. P.). —Government officials were sur-
prised today at the British Government’s de factor recognition of the Spanish Rebel government, but said that the United States contemplates no change in its relations with Spain until the situation has been clarified. Prior to the British Cabinets action, Secretary of State Hull said at his daily press conference that there was nothing new regarding possible recognitiomrof Generalissimo Franco’s regime. He previously had said that the matter was not being considered actively, although it had received some attention. Veteran foreign éxperts believed that the United States would proceed cautionsly in view of the background of the Spanish conflict and the fact that the Loyalists havé not yet conceded defeat.
Watch Other Nations
This nation’s future policy, they indicated, may depend on definite action by both Britain and France, since they are closer to the scene, and the attitude taken by the Latin American nations, many of which look to Spain as their mother country. Few officials were willing to comment on the British action. Senator George (D. Ga.), a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said he believed the question of recognition will come up as soon as Gen. Franco has gained complete control of Spain. Rep. John W. McCormack (D. Mass.), who asked Secretary Hull a few weeks ago to grant Gen. Franco de facto recognition, said there was no doubt that the insurgent leader now represents the duly constituted authority of Spain. Brazilian Foreign Minister Oswaldo Aranha, who conferred for
lan hour and a half yesterday with
President Roosevelt, was expected to remain here for two more weeks. Members of the Brazilian mission were reported considering a broad commercial and « economic understanding with the United States.
Peru Recognizes
Franco Regime
LIMA, Peru, Feb. 16 (U. P.).— Peru announced its recognition of the Spanish Rebel government today leading the way for the principal republics of South America who are considering their policy as the result of the fall of Catalonia. Peru severed relations with the Loyalist Government in March, 1935, after the Loyalists raided the consulate at Madrid and confiscated Secumsnis and refugees sheltered ere.
Rebels Bombard Madrid, Five Killed
PERPIGNAN, French - Spanish Frontier, Feb. 16 (U. P.).—The Spanish Rebels blasted Madrid with big caliber cannon today while Loyalist leaders continued to cone sider their policy and their prospects of holding Central Spain. Reports said that about 100 shells of terrific explosive power fell in Madrid yesterday, and did severe material damage in addition to causing five known deaths and wounding 12 persons.

London Accords de Facto Recognition to Franco.
LONDON, Feb. 16 (U.-P.).—A décision to recognize’ the Spanish Rebel Government, the speeding up of a gigantic rearmament program and reported preparations for closest general staff co-operation with France marked the start today of a major British diplomatic offensive. It was indicated that in the four and a half months since the Munich conference, when the democratic powers had to agree to the dismemberment of Czechoslovakia as the price of European peace, the British Government, moving slowly and cautiously but with considerable determination, had perfected its diplomatic plans and was ready for action on them. The new policy seemed to be to recognize. the apparently certain victory of the Rebels; to persuade the Rebels to send Italian and German troops home; to co-operate more closely: with France than ot any time since the World War; to exert every effort to overtake Germany in armaments.
. Wait on Mussolini
As regards the expected Italian claim for satisfactions of “aspirations” at FPrance’s expense in the Mediterranean, the policy, worked out with France, seemed to be to await the announcement of Premier Mussolini’s demands and to seek to grant those which could be granted without weakening the British or French positions, but in any case, to agree to no territorial concessions. The rapid development of Britain’s post-Munich policy was shown yesterday by a series of apparently disconnected, bul closely elated announcements and rerts: 1. The disclosure that the Cabinet had decided unanimously to grant the Spanish Rebels de facto recognition, or recognition in fact, and to accord de jure or legal recognition as soon as legal difficulties had been worked out. 2. The announcement that the Government was prepared to borrow altogether some $3,752,000,000 to spend on armaments under the five-year program which is to be completed in 1942. This program, including money: appropriated froin revenues, is to cost more than $7,035,000,000 in all, 3. The announcement that 60 new warships will be added to the fleet this year and that two more battleships, making a total of nine projected, will be added to the 1939 program.
Army Talks May Be Reopened
4. The report, which came ' from diplomatic quarters, that France had proposed opening of new general staff talks on full co-ordination of defense plans in the Mediterranean, the Near East and the Far East—and that Britain was expected to agree. 5. The passage by the House of Commons late last night of a resolution “that in the light of considerable activity by various foreign governments in the field of propaganda by means of: the press, broadcasting and films, this House urges the Government to pay more attention to publicity and to fender wholehearted moral and financial support of schemes which will make certain of effective presentation of British news abroad.” Such schemes, however, are already in operation, including the broadcasting—to Nazi distaste—~of British news in German. There seemed no doubt that despite the British-Italian agreement and Prime Minister Chamberlain’s recent visit to Sig. Mussolini, Britain and Italy were drawing rapidly apart and that Britain and France were drawing constantly closer together,
Grand Council "Adjourns With No Mention of De“mands on France.
ROME, Feb. 16 (U. P.).—The Fascist Grand Council announced today a totalitarian educational plan under which the youth of Italy will undergo a thoroughly Fascist schooling from the kindergarten to the university in pursuance of Premier Mussolini's dream of developing “the new Italian.” Reports that the death of Pope Pius had delayed Premier Mussolini’s plans for announcing his “aspirations” in the Mediterranean were regarded as confirmed when last night's council communique made no mention of foreign affairs. Premier Mussolini presided at the session, : The council adjourned until March 21. By that time a new Pope will have been elected. Today a semiofficial bulletin of the Informazione Diplomatica, close to the Foreign Office, said today that Italian volunteers will not be withdrawn from Spain until Generalissimo Franco himself says their task is finished.
Effective in October
Under the educational plan, membership in the semimilitary youth organizations is made obligatory to all students, A “school book” will be issued to students and they must present this when they graduate and go out into the world to seek jobs, to prove that they have followed “the civil curriculum of Italians of the Mussolini era.” The approved plan was submitted by Giuseppe Bottai, Education Min-: ister. It will be effective at the opening of the school season next October. : Sig. Bottai explained to the Council that the state would check up on all school books to insure that they followed Fascist doctrines, and that the state would control private schools. Children will be required to attend school until they attain the age of 14 years. Membership in the Fascist youth organizations will be obligatory until the 21st year. Elementary and normal schools will have a 24-hour a week course. * Needy students who show aptitude will be maintained by the state in special boarding schools.
TELEKI SEEKS NEW HUNGARIAN CABINET
Premier Imredy Quits Over Jewish Issue.
BUDAPEST, Feb. 16 (U. P.).— Count "Paul Teleki accepted today an invitation by Regent Nicholas de Horthy to form a cabinet in succession to that of Bela Imredy, who resigned yesterday partly, he announced, because he—supporter of anti-Jewish laws—had found that one of his grandmothers was Jewish. Count Teleki’s acceptance of a formal offer to form the cabinet was taken to mean that he had hope he could assemble a ministry which would command a Parliamentary majority. He had spent much time in conference with political leaders to
find whether he could form a strong ministry. ;
RANGOON, Burma, Feb. 16 (U. P.) —The House of Representatives voted misconfidence in the Government today, on the allegation of the Government’s inability to maintain
order in recent labor rioting.
Frank Aiken, Defense Minister, said in Parliament last night - that arrangements. would be made for compulsory five-year service in the volunteer force, and that the Army would be increased from 20,000 men to 30,000. Hitherto members of the volunteer force have been able to terminate their service on -seven days’ notice.
NAZIS REGIMENT ALL LABORERS
Shortage Forces Decrees by Goering Ending Job Freedom.
BERLIN, Feb. 16 (U.P. —Nazi Germany, mobilizing all its economic resources and manpower for vast self-sufficiency and armaments drives found itself confronted today with a shortage of labor almost unparalleled in modern times. Almost every other great power was struggling to find work for millions of jobless people. But Germany was unable to find sufficient men to carry out the work to be done. Today 6,600,000 more Germans were at work than in 1929, and men in the 70's were coming out of retirement to return to their old jobs. The labor situation was mirrored vividly in two decrees issued this week by Field Marshal Hermann Goering, dictator of the Four-Year Plan to make Germany economically self-sufficient and able to resist
other war. State Takes Control
One decree empowered the Labor Ministry to make all questions of employment and dismissal of labor subject to the control of the Government Labor Office. The other will compel all Germans if called upon by the labor exchange, to quit their present employment work on jobs regarded as imp rtant to the state.
U.S. REGAINS HALF OF PAN-AMERICAN TRADE
WASHINGTON, Feb. 16 (U. P)) — The Bureau of Agricultural Economics reported today that nearly half of the U. S. export trade lost to Latin-America between 1929 land 1932 has been regained in the past five years. United States agricultural and industrial exports to the 20 Latin-
902 million dollars in 1929 to 193 million in 1932, the Bureau said. In 1938 the value of exports to those countries was 476 million dollars, —— i Hurry! Hurry to the
