{ Parliament Speeds |. [War Emergency Bill And Mobilizes Ships
Prepares Fleet for Removal of Troops to Fiance After Chamberlain Warns That Hitler Demands a Free Hand in Eastern Europe.

were elozed to shipping. Ships must also follow a marked channel between the forts guarding Portsmouth, it was announced, owing to unspecified “obstructions.” The order for the blackout was transmitted to the United Press late this afternoon by the management of the News of the World Building, which houses the U. P, Bureau. The order was described as intended to eliminate the necessity for special notice in order to black out London from possible enemy air raiders. The blackout notice, based on a metropolitan police order, was issued by Sir Philip Game, head of Scotland Yard, and signed by Ernest Riley, News of the World Air Raid Precautions officer. It read in part:
Obscure All Lights
“Notice has been received from the police that all lights retained in use after dark must be obscured so that the light is not visible from outside.” . The Emergency Bill which the Prime Minister has asked Parliament to pass, would empower the King to make such emergency defense regulations as appear necessary. It provides for the “securing of public safety and the defense of the realm, the main-
“tenance of public order, the efficient
prosecution of any war wherein His Majesty may be engaged, and the maintenance of supplies and services essential to the life of community.” The Emergency bill also authorizes ‘The ssion by the Government of “any property or undertaking.” Search of any premises.

The bill is divided into four sections dealing with war regulations, powers to impose charges, proceedings relating to colonies and dominions, and proceedings = ‘in camera,” or secret. The emergency measure also au-
_ thorizes the arrest, trial and sen-
tencing of violators of the regulations and also “the detention of persons whose arrest appears expedient in the interests of public safety.” The bill extends “with such exceptions as may be specified” to the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, Newfoundland. and any colony or British protectorate or territory “wheresoever we hold a mandate under the League of Nations.” The bill does not authoribe compulsory military, naval or air force service nor does it provide for industrial conscription or court martial of persons not subject to military law. Today's was the most momentous session of Commons since the night of Aug. 3, 1914, when the catastrophic World War was unleashed. As nations mobilized their armed forces all over Europe. “The issue of peace or war does not rest with us,” the aged Prime Minister said. . . . “God knows I have done all possibll in our efforts for peace.”

A Great Britain and France, he said, are united in their stands and will aid Poland.

a chorus of deep-throated cheers. There was another rumble of assent when Premier Chamberlain em-
" phasized that Russia’s action in
signing a pact with Germany seemed inconsistent with the previous Soviet
foreign policy: A great burst of cheers arose when
Mr. Chamberlain spoke of the British Government's message of warning to Adolf Hitler. Referring to the belief in Germany that the new German-Rus-sian non-aggression pact would imperil the alliance between Britain and France and prevent them from aiding Poland, Mr. Chamberlain let
his clenched fist fall on the dispatch case before him and said: “We felt it our first duty to remove any such dangerous illusions.” The single ray of hope: in the Prime Minister’s somber speech was his statement that in its message to Herr Hitler, Britain stated the belief that the Polish-German quarrel could be settled by negotiations without resort to war. Mr, Chamberlain said he preferred not. to comment on Herr Hitler’s reply to the Cabinet's message. The Prime Minister's statement
‘about the Soviet-German pact was
received in significant silence. Conceals Nothing
“I do not attempt to conceal from the House,” Mr. Chamberlain said, “that the pact came to the Government as an unpleasant surprise. The Government had no inkling from
the Soviets. Negotiations (for a|
British-French-Russian pact) were proceeding. in mutual trust when this bombshell was flung down.” Mr. Chamberlain appeared to be laboring with emotion during most of his speech The unanimity of the. House behind the Government was demonstrated by Arthur Greenwood, deputy Labor leader; Sir Archibald Sin-
clair, Liberal leader, and Anthony|
Eden, who split the Government on the Munich “appeasement.” They all voiced their support of Mr. Chamberlain., In the House of Lords, Viscount Halifax, Foreign Secretary, made a speech similar to Mr. Chamberlain’s. “The Government's message to Herr Hitler this week,” he said, “made it plain that if cause should arise, the Government is resolved to be prepared to employ without delay all the forces at. its command.” Parliament, after tonight, is scheduled tentatively to meet again on Aug. 31, but may reconvene sooner if necessary.
NAZIS BETRAYED US, TOKYO JOURNALS GRY
TOKYO, Aug. 2¢ (U. P).—Emperor Hirohito intends to summon an Imperial Council meeting to consider Japan’s foreign policy in view of a diplomatic emergency precipitated by Germany's pact with Russia, it was reported today. For the moment, preponderant
Government opinion was that Japan should seek improved relations with the United States and Great Britain because they considered Germany had forfeited their confidence. It was learned that the Emperor was shortening his stay at Hayama, his summer residence, and returning to Tokyo. It was believed that upon arrival here he would summon’ a meeting of his Imperial Council to consider the complete reorientation of Japan’s foreign policy necessitated by Germany's reversal of position. Considerable anti-German feeling already was evident. A partial boycott was imposed on German restaurants, and ornamenta 1 Nazi swastikas disappeared from the streets. Newspapers outspokenly charged that Germany had betrayed a trust. A Navy spokesman said today, in discussing the new situation, that Japan must now depend only upon herself. The Army, he said, now was in agreement with the Navy that an independent course was indi-

This map shows how Europe lined up last night in the fast-changing European situation. But it may not be the final lineup. Russia’s treaty does not make her an ally of Germany, but provides only for a benevolent neutrality, if war comes. Rumania today fortified her frontiers and announced she would remain neutral. Adolf Hitler sent a personal letter to the President of Turkey, appealing to him to desert
his alliance with Britain and France.

Russian pact nullified the anti-Comintern agreement he had signed with Germany and left him complete
freedom of action.
Hungary is determined to maintain a difficult neutrality as regards Poland.
Today the so-called democratic powers still had a slight numerical advantage in troops now under arms, and in manpower behind the lines. The Rome-Berlin axis has an advantage in the number of trained
soldiers. The strengths:

France Due to Complete Mobilization by Sunday
PARIS, Aug. 24 reservists were ordered called up today at such a rapid pace that many believed the Government was in effect proceeding with general mobilization as far as it was compatible with transport facilities. It was pointed out that a general order mobilizing France's 6,000,000 trained men would create an unbearable traffic problem. Nevertheless, the calling of reserves was proceeding at progressively rapid stages and the present method appeared to be a smooth precautionary effort which may be completed before Sunday. The Council of Ministers today unanimously ratified the Government’s extraordinary military preparations and considered recalling the mission negotiating vainly in Moscow for a British-French military alliance with Soviet Russia.
Frontier Is Manned
As the ministers met for more than two hours, a vast stream of reservists moved up behind the Maginot line and more were assembling throughout France. The Government today called up all reservists of frontier departments. Next called up were reservists who are holding the so-called “No. six” mobilization cards. The holders of the cards numbered two, three and four had been called up previously. Late today the Government called up reservists who hold No. eight mobilization ecards. Possibly two million men will be put under arms by the present orders, but full - mobilization of Prance’s vast trained fighting forces, totaling around six million has not yet been ordered.
Shocked by Treaty
Political leaders were shocked by news that Germany and Russia had signed’ a non-aggression treaty so binding that all hope of a. French-British-Russian alliance was gone, and Germany was able to divert large forces of troops from her Eastern to her Western frontier. Two classes of reserves called out last night, and notified by posters on Town Hall bulletin boards, throughout France, were being shuttled eastward on special trains. Another proclamation made all motor vehicles subject to requisition

In Paris alone, 700 busses were requisitioned during the night and held at the edge of the city in readiness for hauling troops. The strategy was reminiscent of that of 1914, when a taxicab army was recruited overnight on the Paris streets and moved up to reinforce the Marne. It was reported that French North African troops also were reinforcing vital passes in the mountainous French-Italian frontier.
French, British Missions
May Leave Moscow Soon (Text, Page Nine)
MOSCOW, Aug. 24 (U. P.).—The British and French missions seeking to conclude a mutual aid pact with Soviet Russia prepared to leave for home tonight without concluding an alliance. The decision of the two military missions was reached after Russia had signed a non-aggression pact with Germany which the Soviet press hailed as establishing close and friendly relations and which barred both parties from joining a hostile combination against the other. While the official’ Communist Party newspaper Pravda hailed the pact with Germany as foreshadowing close and flourishing friendship between the two powers, diplomatic observers said that in view of the temper of the British, it would not

The one sentence from the Pravda editorial led foreign diplomats here to speculate on the nature and extent of positive Russian-German co-operation and the development of friendship between the two great military powers, in which ‘two men direct the destinies of 240 million people. Outside Germany and Russia, there are in Europe a total of 262 million people. The scope of possible Russianan co-operation is shown by the fact that 23 countries with populati totaling more than one billion people, half of the world’s

preme head of the state—a sort of Fuehrer-dictator—in a move that Poles decried as in violation of the Danzig statute and feared as the first step toward return of Danzig to the Reich.
German soldiers also were reportéd in unconfirmed dispatches from Warsaw to have crossed the Polish irontier from East Prussia and penetrated almost a mile nto Poland. Everywhere troops were being mobilized on a gigantic scale, with France calling up reserves so rapidly that experts said she was approaching a state of general mobilization as rapidly as transport facilities would permit. France's total fighting strength is six million. Americans were warned officially by their embassies to get out of England, France and Germany and other danger spots. Great Britain began mobilizing a fleet of liners, cruise ships for transport use if necessary to France or any part of the Empire. Britons were warned to leave Germany and, except for Germans in England, there was a general and mounting surge of foreigners to get home. In Berlin, it was announced that the German cruiser Koenigsberg
| would visit Danzig shortly. The of-
ficial German News Agency report-
ed that Poland had cut telephone
connections with Gdynia, where Nazis said every Pole able to bear arms had been mustered.
Poles Denounce Change
Nazis triumphantly hailed signature of a non-aggression pact with Russia as assuring close friendly relations with Moscow and the British and French missions seeking a mutual aid pact with the Soviets were considering returning home at once empty handed. In Warsaw, the Polish Government denounced the Danzig elevation of Forster but continued grimly confident that Poland could and would resist Nazi aggression with the aid of Britain and France. In Rome, Mussolini conferred with high Italian military, naval and
aviation leaders and the authorita-|
tive Fascist press reiterated that Italy would fight on Germany’s side if war comes.
In Tokyo, the Japanese Emperor
summoned an Imperial Council meeting to meet the sudden, drastic realignment of power which may turn out to be a terrific blow to Japanese plans in the Far East. Japanese newspapers discussed the possibility that “betrayed” by Germany, Japan would have to seek closer friendship with the United States and Great Britain. In the smaller countries, powerful efforts being made to keep free of the threatened conflict sensational importance — Rumania reportedly advised Warsaw that she would remain neutral in event of a Polish-German conflict.
Rumania Stays Neutral
Rumania, which was given guarantees by Great Britain and France, is of almost as much importance in the security front strategy as Turkey, the guardian of the Dardanelles, as supplies must pass through Rumania to reach Poland. : Franz von Papen, one of Herr Hitler's most skillful negotiators, returned to Istanbul to try to get Turkey to change its mind about aiding the security powers but it was reported that the Turks so far were standing firm. However, Baron von Papen reportedly carried a personal message from Hitler to the Turkish President that might affect the situation. The Netherlands ordered preobiliza

With lips compressed he looked neither to left nor right. He did not even acknowledge the feeble “Heils” from about 200 citizens in front of the Chancellery. . ‘Foreign Minister Joachim von Ribbentrop arrived by airplane from Moscow, where he negotiated the Soviet-German non-aggression pact, and went immediately to confer with Herr Hitler.

Nazi officials tonight described Prime Minister Neville: Chamberlain’s speech as “unquestionably of tremendous importance.” .The speech was summarized at once and copies handed to chief Nazi officials who began studying it pending an official textual translation.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex., Aug. 24 (U.

The pair planned the trip last spring when they were students of Thomas Jefferson High School. They left Seguin in a 13-foot canoe and paddled for 90 hours before reaching Seadrift'on the Gulf of Mexico. They released a carrier pigeon to carry home the news that they had arrived. Dreyer and Ringle said that the last two miles of the trip, because of rough water and driftwood, were the hardest..
