Students Fight Shanghai Police
City Placed Under Military Law; Chinese Officer Seriously Mauled
SHANOHL Monday, Jan. 27.—(EE) —Sections of Shanghai were under virtual military law today following bloody fighting Between riotous students and police.
Quiet was restored in the Chapel section at 10 a.m. and the peace preservation force reoccupied the police station in the native city.
The fighting started at noon yesterday when a mob of 2,000 nationalist students stormed the Chapei police station in ihe native city and Kidnapped the officer in charge. Reinforcements Called
Police reinforcements were called, led by foreign police officers, and after repeated charges the Chinese officer was rescued. He had been beaten badly. Scores of students were clubbed.
Police said the students were led by communists.
Two battalions of the Russian regiment of the Shanghai volunteer corps were called out to patrol the international settlement.
Riotous students swarmed into the settlement repeatedly.
Police said the attack on the Chapei police station was an effort to rescue 11 students who had been jailed for “reactionary activities.” They said the rioters were attempting to hang the Chinese station commander when he was rescued.
A number of European police officers were mauled. One Chinese constable attached to the international settlement force was hurt seriously ,
Troops Ready Japanese and jther foreign warships to the river had armed blue jackets and marines ready to land if necessary.
Sikh guards around big industrial plants along the waterfront were doubled.
Student leaders have been holding secret meetings for a fortnight to protest against the central government’s program of passive cooperation with Japan in North China, where the new Hopei-Chahar political council—the government of these two provinces—is alleged to have passed completely under control of the Japanese army.

Ickes Proposes Great Changes In Works Plan
Permanent PWA Suggested
By Administrator in Washington Talk
Congress To Approve Jobs
Coast to Coast Highways Advocated as Part Of New Program
WASHINGTON, Jan. 26—(EE>— Public Works Administrator Harold L. Ickes tonight proposed that the government establish a permanent non-political construction program to prevent future unemployment emegencies.
Such a program, he told Washington’s town hall forum, should be based on “a scientific and objective determination of what undertakings should have priority for the greatest good of the country as a whole.” Permanent Projects
Ickes’ recommendation for a permanent PWA was in the face of President Roosevelt’s recent budject message which made no provision for a new public works appropriation and indicated congress would be asked to approve specific, individual projects.
“There should be no log-rolling, no trading for parochial benefits, to making up the list of projects,” Ickes said. He proposed that such public works as super-highways, river and harbor improvement and hydro-electric power projects be planned in advance so that work could be started immediately to provide jobs in case of another depression.
Super Highways Planned
“Three magnificent super-highways could be built from the Atlantic seaboard to the Pacific coast unmarred by billboards, hot dog stands or indiscriminately located service stations.” he remarked. “These longitudinal highways could be bisected by three or four similar ones running from Canada to the Mexican border or gulf coast.
“And why not consider lighting our highways? This would permit safe hauling of freight at nfcht and provide less dangerous traffic conditions in the winter months when the days are short.
“I have long desired to see the elimination of every grade crossing in the United Stsates. excepting only those on insignificant spur and branch lines that are scarcely ever used.”
Ickes did not estimate the cost of his proposed program, which also would include flood control work and Irrigation.
The Condylists were second with 60.840, the Tsaldarists third with 43.940, the Communists 12,530. and the RepubUcans, 6.323.

Akron, Macon Replacement Is Navy Proposal
WASHINGTON. Jan. 26—<IT.P>— The navy department’s science advisory board, headed by William P. Durand, professor emeritus of mechanical engineering at Stanford university, tonight recommended unanimously that dirigibles be buUt to replace the Akron and Macon.
The board was appointed by Secretary of the Navy Claude Swanson after the destruction of theMa-con to "review and analyze the past and present” of airships and to re-commed as to their future.
The report suggested that a large airship be built under a new program to be used its a “flying laboratory or flying training ship.” Despite the disasters which befell Doth the Akron and the Macon, the board said that recent improvements in airship design and construction as weU as aerodynamics have made it practicable to build large ships “with a reasonable assurance of safety and with a presumptive life which should serve to permit of a demonstration of their capacity for useful service, whether commercial, military or naval.”

New Drive by Italy Seen by Military Heads
ROME. Jan. 28—(UJJ)—A smashing drive towards Addis Ababa, with a good chance of success, was seen tonight by military experts at Italy's next objective to Ethiopia. It would come from the south, by way of two alternate routes, and Gen. Rodolfc Graziani is only awaiting word from Rome to go ahead.
The possible routes of attack are:
1. Through the southern GaUa country to the city of Allota and thence directly north to the ancient kingdom’s capital.
2. By way of Harar and the French owned Djibouti-Addis Ababa railroad.
Authorized press dispatches from Negheili tonight oaid the Gen. Gro-ziani has ordered airplanes and motorized units to proceed to Allata, only 150 miles south of Addis Ababa. NeghelU was captured last week during the SomaUland army’s crushing offensive in which 11,000 Ethiopians were killed or wounded and which was followed closely by the Tembien battle to the north where 5,000 Ethiopians feU before the Italian onslaught.

President Said Reconciled
Hobart Urges 40 Solons To ‘Suport Roosevelt’ in Final Balloting
WASHINGTON. Jan. 26. — (EP)— The 17-year struggle to force immediate payment of the $2,237,000,-000 soldier bonus is expected to end
victoriously tomorrow when the senate meets determined to override President Roosevelt’s veto of ths compromise bill.
Abandoned by all but one of his leaders, Mr. Roosevelt lost the first round of the closing fight on Friday when the house rejected his crisp, hand-written veto by a vote of 321 to 61. The senate passed the biU 74 to 16 indicating there would be ample votes to that body to approve the measure over the chief executive’s objections.
“Who’s Running Country?"
A zero hour attempt to stiffen the senate’s spine was made by Henry H. Curran, director of -the national economy league, to a tjle-gram to the 40 senators who voted last May to sustain Mr. Roosevelt's veto of the Patman “greenback” bonus biU.
Attacking the compromise bill as “dangerously expensive” and “frankly discriminatory,” Curran appealed to the 40 senators to etand firm and again support the president.
“Who Is running this country— the America people or ths American legion?” the telegram asked.
Donald A. Hobart, national commander of the American veterans association, to a speech warned that the “cowardly surrender” of congress to the cx-service men’s lobby opens ths door to a campaign for world war pensions which ultimately will cost the country $100,000,000-0J0.”
“More And More Pensions”
The first move in this direction already has been made, Hobart said. It was contained ta a bill by Rep. John Rank, D„ Miss., to pension widows of all world war veterans who die from causes ta no way related to their miUtary service.
The president is said to be reconciled to defeat. His veto message, written as he lay in bed Fridav morning, contained only 210 words in contrast with the lengthy message which he read before a joint session of ths houses last May in rejecting the Patman bilL
Citing members of both houses to this message, Mr. Roosevelt said his convictions “are as impelling now as they were then.” Thus he kept his position consistent.
Already inflationists are rallying their strength to force payment of the bonus in “green-backs.” Members of the silver bloc want the treasury to issue more currency to pay the debt, recommending that the government utilize its profits under the silver-purchase act.
Worried house leaders soon will poll members on potential strength of the Frazier-Lemke farm mortage refinancing bill. It authorizes issuance of $3,000,000,003 to greenbacks to refinance all farm mortgages at a low rate of interest. Even if the measure is approved by the house it is extremely doubtful it could pass the senate.
Six Indicted
By United Press.
Six men indicted by a San Francisco grand jury on charges of using the mails to defraud to connection with the West American Consolidated Mines. Inc., are expected to surrender to the U. S. marshall today.
Jaye Brower, Phi Sigma Kappa, who last Friday took over the Trojan Squires, sophomore service organization, at the regular semiannual election of officers.

Mexican Troopers Fire on Kidnapers
MEXICO CITY, Jan. 26—(ED— Desperate bandits fled with Max L. Quin, kidnaped American mine manager, tonight after fighting off an attack by federal troops.
The soldiers pursued the band closely after killing three of the kidnapers to a short fierce battle.
Quin, who for 20 years has been manager of El Cubo mine, 18 miles from Guanajuato in the state of the same name, was seised by the bandits Friday at the mine. His captors left a demand for 10,000 pesos ransom.
Authorities were notified Immediately and troops look up the trail. They caught up with them today after the bandits Iiad entrenched themselves on a small hill.
Conservative Government Approved by S.C. Students
Conservative government was unconditionally approved here last week by School of Journalism students voting in Time magazine’s copyrighted current affairs test.
The embroyo newshawks and newshens, registering their opinions in a list of 13 statements of policy anent poUtics, labor, internationalism, finance, and art, were almost two to one agreed that “to the long run the best government is a conservative government.”
The journalists also denounced so-called liberal government in three other opinions, to wit:
1. They voted 32-3 that “the budget should be balanced not by more taxes, but by a reduction of government expenses.”
2. By a 2o-5 vote they declared themselves opposed to “further inflation cf currency ta this country.”
3. By a smaUer margin, 21-12, but no less definite, they decided that “the United States Constitution ls . . . flexible enough to permit the government to deal adequately with present day conditions.”
Other tenets which the test disclosed as finding most favor were that the recent Ineffectiveness of the League of Nations has not demonstrated the futility of all attempts
at international government, and
That more cooperation by ths United States with other nations would not materially lessen the danger of another World War.
Italy’s Ethiopian aggression was frowned on when the students voted 28-7 against spreading “the advantages of civilization . . to such nations as Ethiopia even at the price of war.”
Ths 30-hour week for all industry was approved, and it was decided that labor unions are not a menace to American industry.
In the field of art and Uterature, the test revealed an overwhelming sentiment against creation ot a federal board of censors to pass on all art, literature, and drama. Twen-ty-two voted against the statement, “Because modem paintings are not photographic they violate the basic principles of art.” Five agreed, and four could muster ro opinion whatever on ths point.
The test was given the entire School of JournaUsm by Prof. Roy L. French ta conjunction with the editors of Time magazine. It Is given twice yearly, and S. C. results are consistently higher than the national average, a school official said Saturday.

Students Fight Shanghai Police City Placed Under Military Law; Chinese Officer Seriously Mauled SHANOHL Monday, Jan. 27.—(EE) —Sections of Shanghai were under virtual military law today following bloody fighting Between riotous students and police. Quiet was restored in the Chapel section at 10 a.m. and the peace preservation force reoccupied the police station in the native city. The fighting started at noon yesterday when a mob of 2,000 nationalist students stormed the Chapei police station in ihe native city and Kidnapped the officer in charge. Reinforcements Called Police reinforcements were called, led by foreign police officers, and after repeated charges the Chinese officer was rescued. He had been beaten badly. Scores of students were clubbed. Police said the students were led by communists. Two battalions of the Russian regiment of the Shanghai volunteer corps were called out to patrol the international settlement. Riotous students swarmed into the settlement repeatedly. Police said the attack on the Chapei police station was an effort to rescue 11 students who had been jailed for “reactionary activities.” They said the rioters were attempting to hang the Chinese station commander when he was rescued. A number of European police officers were mauled. One Chinese constable attached to the international settlement force was hurt seriously , Troops Ready Japanese and jther foreign warships to the river had armed blue jackets and marines ready to land if necessary. Sikh guards around big industrial plants along the waterfront were doubled. Student leaders have been holding secret meetings for a fortnight to protest against the central government’s program of passive cooperation with Japan in North China, where the new Hopei-Chahar political council—the government of these two provinces—is alleged to have passed completely under control of the Japanese army. tit rfl] that authorities decided to ^jep the nail of kings open all t.ght.

Ickes Proposes Great Changes In Works Plan Permanent PWA Suggested By Administrator in Washington Talk Congress To Approve Jobs Coast to Coast Highways Advocated as Part Of New Program WASHINGTON, Jan. 26—(EE>— Public Works Administrator Harold L. Ickes tonight proposed that the government establish a permanent non-political construction program to prevent future unemployment emegencies. Such a program, he told Washington’s town hall forum, should be based on “a scientific and objective determination of what undertakings should have priority for the greatest good of the country as a whole.” Permanent Projects Ickes’ recommendation for a permanent PWA was in the face of President Roosevelt’s recent budject message which made no provision for a new public works appropriation and indicated congress would be asked to approve specific, individual projects. “There should be no log-rolling, no trading for parochial benefits, to making up the list of projects,” Ickes said. He proposed that such public works as super-highways, river and harbor improvement and hydro-electric power projects be planned in advance so that work could be started immediately to provide jobs in case of another depression. Super Highways Planned “Three magnificent super-highways could be built from the Atlantic seaboard to the Pacific coast unmarred by billboards, hot dog stands or indiscriminately located service stations.” he remarked. “These longitudinal highways could be bisected by three or four similar ones running from Canada to the Mexican border or gulf coast. “And why not consider lighting our highways? This would permit safe hauling of freight at nfcht and provide less dangerous traffic conditions in the winter months when the days are short. “I have long desired to see the elimination of every grade crossing in the United Stsates. excepting only those on insignificant spur and branch lines that are scarcely ever used.” Ickes did not estimate the cost of his proposed program, which also would include flood control work and Irrigation. The Condylists were second with 60.840, the Tsaldarists third with 43.940, the Communists 12,530. and the RepubUcans, 6.323. On the basis of returns so far. the standing of parties to the parliament is: Condylists and Tsaladarists combined. 145 seats; Venizelists, 125 Legal experts are almost unanimous in believing Hauptmann has exhausted his appeals to federal and state courts, aid that, therefore, [the court of pardons is the last [hope.
