Japanese bluejackets advanced in Chapei under the protection of naval airplanes and a bombardment from the rifle range to the north.
An artillery duel in the Kiang¥ wan sector was resulting ln many
casualties. The Chinese units west of Kiangwan were pouring a flre into the village which was causing many Japanese casualties. Jap anese artillery returned the flre and Japanese warships in th* Whangpoo river dropped shells Into Chinese territory in the sector.

lie was ao described la*t Satf urday night by Prof. William B> Munro, who translated the address which Klnstain delivered.
The meeting, sponsored hy It presidents of college student bo*: les In southern California, wan officially known as “a program ln the interest of public opinion." Francla Bushard represented SC-More than 5,000 people, half of them students, packed tbs nev Pasadena Civic auditorium to hear Einstein and two other Internationally known speaker*-—Dr Robert A. Millikan, and Prof. Charlea A. Iteard.
Einstein launched Into a plan for a planned economic organise tion as a prerequisite for peace. "Why roust each person and eaoh nation tremble for their existence? Because each seeks his miserable monetary advantage and will not subordinate himself for the good and prosperity of the community.” Both Dr. Millikan and Professor Beard agreed with Einstein that nations must make some concessions In order to secure peace ‘if western civilization and the white race are to survive, wa must find some way of settling our international dlfflcultle*,'* Millikan said.
The machinery, he pointed <ut, already is at hand—everything except the evecutive machinery to enforce the conditions of peace. This can be made available, he believes, by agreements among nations to act In common against any treaty violator—by embargo, boycott, blockade, or any other method suggested by expert*— when the violator has been designated after proper judicial procedure.
