that fighting between Japanese and Soviet-supported forces on the Outer Mongolian frontier had been renewed by severe Japanese artillery bombardment of Russian positions. Previous dispatches had always called Russia the aggressor, . Twenty-seven Japanese airplanes dropped ' 60 capital last fires among the shacks along the Yangtze River.

Better ‘prospects for Britain and Russia getting together on a mutual aid pact were reported in Paris, while’ London sources said that Britain had now gone 95 per cent of the way meet the Soviet demands. Whether the problem of guarantees to smaller states could be worked out continued indefinite, but there were indications that the outlook was improved.

Spain Still informant

From Spain, rumblings of trduble continued, but there was no definite indication that Generalissimo Francisco Franco would fail to control the various factions under his regime. Persistent reports,of clashes between the Falangists (Fascists) and other political groups lacked] confirmation byt it was admitted that Gen. Franco had taken some military precautions at Seville after the removal of Gen. Gonzalo Queipo

The fundamental struggle in Spain is between the Falangists, headed by Ramon Serrano Suner, brother-in-law of Gen. Franco, and those groups such as | Carlists (Royalists), Catholics and Moderates who want to" keep Italian and German influences out. Their candidate for Premier is Gen. Francisco Gomez Jordana, now Fereign Minister. The Falangists have a big advantage inasmuch as they are the one big organized party on a national scale. Whether they can buck centuries of tradition and a strong spirit of individual independence to put a totalitarian system into effect and link it| with the Rome-Berlin axis is the most difficult problem Gen. Franco has had to judge since a series of accidents put him in charge of the Nationalist movement. | Today Gen. Queipo de Llana conferred with Gen. Gomez Jordana and announced he would take a diplomatic ‘position, probaly Ambassador to Argentina.

‘U. 8. Eyes to East

The United States was watching ‘the Far East very carefully, especially in light of an increasing number of incidents in the interior of China involving Americans. Most recent of them were the beating of R. A. Baker of Anderson, Ind, a naval pay clerk at Hankow and the slapping of two American missionaries near today.dispite the fact that they presented Army passes. Administration officials indicated that the “parallel course” of British and American foreign policy may run in opposite directions as a result of Britain’s official recognition of Japan's “special position” in China. Most American officials still use the word “illegal” as fully describing Japan’s occupation of China. It was thought that this attitude : might make Americans the next object of the displeasure of Japanese militarists. Admiral Harry E. Yarnell, who has so strongly defended| American rights while commander of the United States fleet in the Far East, retired today, turning over his command to Admiral Thomas C. Hart. At Danzig, which is quieter since official statements at Berlin that the question of its return to the Reich would be settled peacefully, Nazi authorities planned to draft Jews back into the labor market from which they were excluded last November. The labor shortage at Danzig was intensified by the conscription of 4000 Danzigers for “police” service.

According to those whose business it is to know, Germany has more food and war materials in reserve than has been commonly believed. But she has none too much, and her first major move in war would be to make sure of additional supplies. These are all the more necessary since Nazi leaders are now said to be aware that a “lightning war”’—a - quick, decisive victory for them—is impossible.

FI HAT, of course, is why Britain is preparing to extend credits, which eventually may reach half a billion dollars or more, to provide improved armaments for Rumania, Poland, Greece and Turkey, But it takes time, and a long time, as such things go, for British credits to be translated into planes, tanks, artillery and other supplies ready for actual battlefield service. Little, if any, can be ready before the end of this year’s “open season for shooting”—for it is generally accepted that, if there is no war before’ November’s frosts, the danger will be over until 1940.

Park and a North Atlantic cruise. When party leaders again converge on Washington, however, the third term and related issues will press for decision. Some of Mr. Roosevelt's friends and a great many of his more or less enemies within the Democratic Party feel that he should step out of the way and permit the 1940 convention a free choice. His intentions are his cwn secret. But the fact that he has repeatedly indicated his determination that Democrats next year shall nominate g liberal candidate and write a liberal platform makes it mere than unlikely that he will permit the delegates to act without firm and insistent advice from the White House. Third term speculation arises largely from the fact that there is no standout candidate who meets Mr. Roosevelt’s specifications and who is available as an heir to the New Deal. Suspicion that the President was considering Paul V. McNutt, of Indiana, as a possible successor was what convinced persons here that his nomination .to be Federal Security Administrator was a move of great political importance. But if Mr. McNutt or some other failed to meet the President's liberal specifications or otherwise were eliminated from the race, a third: term candidacy or some kind of compromise would be alternatives to handing party control over to anti-New Deal forces. Those elements of the party appear just now to be looking for leadership to Vice President John N. Garner.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 25 (U.

KILLED ON ROAD BY HIT-RUNNER

Griffith Man Struck While Fixing Tire; Salem Youth Dies in Cycle Crash.

State Police searched today for a hit-run driver blamed for one of two Indiana traffic deaths yesterday. Roy Zarr, 46, Griffith, was struck and killed by a car as he was

paraiso. The driver of the car did not stop, police said. Paul Holsapple, 18, Salem, was killed when his motorcycle collided

with an auto near his home. Leila Setzer, 16, who was riding with him, was critidally injured. In Indianapolis, 18-year-old Lucille Thurman, 519 Hudson St., was charged with leaving the scene of an accident and vagrancy, after a car in which police said she was riding went over a curb and struck the homs of Pete Alexoff, 1428 Nordyke Ave. Police said the girl ran following the-accident and later appeared at City Hospital where it was discovered she had a fractured jaw and other injuries. Willis Calvert, 58, R. R. 5, Lebanon, also in the car at the time of the accident, according to police, was charged with drunkenness and taken to City Prison. He was less seriously injured.

CHARGE READY IN GIRLS DEATH

Boyce to Face Manslaughter Count; Wants Wife to Hire Lawyer.

Fountain County Prosecutor R. C. Fenters today prepared to file a

manslaughter charge against Thomas Boyce, 27-year-old father of three, held in connection with the murder of 11-year-old Elizabeth DeBruicker, Attica grade school girl. State Safety Director Don Stiver, under whose custody Boyce now is held in the Marion County jail, said Boyce then would be arraigned before a justice of the peace and bound to the Fountain County Grand Jury.

Charge Called Technical

Mr. Stiver said the charge of manslaughter would merely be technical and that Prosecutor Fenters would ask a murder indictment of the Grand Jury in the fall. Meanwhile, Boyce is reported to have charged police with “trying to pin this on me.” Boyce wired his wife at Attica and asked that she visit him in the jail tomorrow. He told a deputy sheriff he wanted her to hire a lawyer for him. Prosecutor Fenters said he will ask the Fountain County courts to place Boyce in safe-keeping and that it will be decided later where he will be imprisoned until his trial. The murder occurred Friday and the body was found Saturday afternoon in a shallow grave in a gravel pit near the Harrison Hills golf course where Boyce was employed.

Funeral Held for Victim

Boyce was taken into custody and for 36 hours maintained his innocence. He was taken from Attica to the Lafayette State Police barracks for questioning when it was regarded as unsafe to keep him in Attica. Sunday he was brought to Indianapolis for a lie detector test and then returned to Lafayette. Yesterday, confronted by the discovery of his fingerprints on a sewing basket which the girl had carried, police said, he made an oral

confession which was taken down

in the presence of witnesses. ‘Funeral services for the girl were held yesterday in the Attica Cath-
