that the negotiations for a Soviet-Japanese truce in the Far . East were conducted on German initiative. Allied operations against Germany were intensified on land, sea and in the air. Fighting on the Western Front was accelerated a French troops in force approached the main German positions in the West Wall defense line. Britain Maintains Secrecy That development followed announcement of French repulse of a strong German counterattack in the Nied Valley sector of the Moselle front, heavy German artillery bombardment of French positions south of Saarbruecken and war in the air over the French and German positions. French sources said that in fighting on the Western front during the past 24 hours the Germans had lost more men than in any previous engagement of the new war on the Western border. Britain, maintaining silence regarding activities of her large expeditionary force in France, claimed that her Navy has dealt crushing blows to German economy.

was seen here, Russia and Japan decided to call their truce. Japan is pre-occupied with its campaign in China and Russia is now more concerned with its Western than its Eastern front. Hence, as it was seen here, the moment was opportune to acknowledge a stalemate on Far Eastern fighting without prejudice to either side.

Troops Keep Present

Positions in Truce

TOKYO, Sept. 168 (U. P.) Japan and Russia have declared a truce on the Manchukuo - Outer Mongolia frontier and have agreed to sappoint a commission to delimit the boundary, it was announced today. Fighting ended at 4 p. m. yesterday (Indianapolis Time). It was agreed that Japanese and Russian troops should remain in the positions they occupied. (Barlv this month Japanese reported that a considerable force of Russians was on the Manchukuo

of troop positions.) Prisoners Exchanged

The first week of Britain's contraband control, enforced by a naval blockade, resulted, the Information Ministry said, | in seizure of enormous quanties of war material destined for the Reich. Seizures included petroleum, iron, manga- | nese, wood pulp, phosphate and haematite.

Belgian Ship Sunk

The newest casualty of the war on the sea was the Belgian liner Alex van Opstal, 5965 tons, which sank after an explosion off the south coast of England last night. The] vessel was torpedoed hy a German submarine or struck a German mine, the British Information Ministry asserted. | The plight of the shattered Polish Army grew worse as the Germans continued to strike in all parts of the country, but the desperate Polish resistance forced the German High Command to bring up reinforcements to strengthen its lines around the Polish forces. Nevertheless the Germans claimed to have captured Prezemysl, 60 miles west of Lwow (Lemberg), taking 8000

prisoners and 126 guns. They also took Bialystok, 100 miles atmosphere prevailing between the 7 two countries and contribute to-|

northeast of Warsaw and announced that many Polish prisoners had been sent to work on German farms.

It was feared that soon the only line of retreat for the Poles would be to the inhospitable Soviet frontier. The newspaper Paris Soir said that Germany had paid dearly for her gains in Poland and reported German losses on the Eastern Front to date as 100,000 dead and wounded. The newspaper L'Intransigeant in Paris said it had learned unofficially that since the start of hostilities the French and British fleets had sunk two and captured eight German submarines. The Paris newspaper Petit Parisien predicted that Russia would realize her ambitions regarding White Russian and Ukrainian sections of Poland “by roundabout means which will permit maintenance of the fiction of neutrality,” because of Rumania’s alliance with Poland and because all Balkan countries, notably Turkey, wow. feel threatened! by Russia's entry into the war. | The Canadian Government in Ottawa intensified its ef-|

Mr. Stimson and Mr. Butler both asked for repeal of the arms embargo, maintaining that it was unneutral and that it also placed America on the side of Nazi Germany in the present war.

Entrenched French machinegunners met the German attack and French artillery blasted German tank formations to pieces as French infantry was thrown into the Nied Valley from Filstroff and Guerstling. The hardest fighting occurred at

lage inside the border. The Germans used massed formations for the first time in the Western Front fighting but their tactics brought only increased losses as they failed to break through the French field defenses, the reports said. It was reported German infantrymen wore some sort of metal protection, but it was said German losses were five times as great as France's, The action took place a considerable distance in front of the Maginot Line,

U. S. Faces Critical

Period in Far East

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16 (U. P). —The United States today faced a possible critical period in its Far Eastern relations as a result of the

| signing of a truce halting hostili‘ties between Japan and Russia.

Some authorities here believed that the Russo-Japanese truce and indications that a non-aggression pact might be negotiated between the two nations foreshadowed a Russian “green light” to Japan for intensification of the campaign in China. These observers saw the likelihood that Japan, temporarily freed from its ancient fear of Russian action on its borders. would increase its activities against Western interests in China and attempt to end foreign concessions in conquered areas. That campaign clashes sharply with the long-established foreign policy of the United States devoted to maintaining the “open door” in ina, and its intensification could bring new tension in U. S.-Japan-ese relations. Secretary of State Cordell Hull conferred yesterday with the Japanese Ambassador, Kensuke Horin-

After the counter-attack failed, it was reported, German planes continued to fly over the French trenches at a height of only about 150 feet, machine-gunning the troops.

“The nonsense which Mr. Ane thony Biddle, who represents the | United States with the permanently moving Polish Government, has been dishing out to the American public since Sept. 1 has been exceeded only by the patent lies of his mate, half-Jew Bullitt (Ambassador William C.
