New Deal Foe Plans Legislaiion To Purge Bank Holding Concerns
WASHINGTON, Jan. 24 — (l'.E> —
President Roosevelt’s drive against bank holding companies took an unexpected turn today when Sen. Carter Glass. D.. Va.. usually a foe of the New Deal, disclosed that he is preparing legislation to purge all such financial units over a five- j year period.
Glars said he has discussed his proposal with Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau, Jr., I but has not. yet taken it up with! the president. Morgenthau, declaring himself in “complete accord"! with Glass, said a sub-committee of i the inter-departmental banking committee will meet this week to discuss legation aimed not only at banking holding companies but similar companies in the utility industry.
"UNHEALTHY SITUATION”
The cabinet officer described as “an unhealthy situation” one in which holding companies are allowed to hold bank stock. The extent of these holdings was revealed in a survey by the federal deposit insurance corporation showing that . 23 major bank holding companies, through 400 banks, control one-eighth of the total deposits in the na‘ion's 15.000 banks.
Meantime, Robert H. Jackson, assistant attorney general in charge I of the New Deal's trust-busting campaign, and Benjamin V. Cohen, roung administration lawyer who participated in the writing of the public utility “death sentence” act, ronferred with the president. They k-ould not sav whether thev dis-

Planes Wreck Chinese 'Life-Line' in Attempt To Cut Off Hong Kong
SHANGHAI, Jan. 24— (U.P)—Japan carried her war against China to the south coast today, sending fleets of bombing planes to wreck the Can-ton-Hankow railroad, China’s “life j line,” and attempting to cut off rail coommunications with the British | crown colony of Hong Kong.
For nearly nine hours Japanese airplanes, working in relays, bombed stations along the Canton-Han-kow railway and then cut across and bombed the Canton-Kowloon line connecting Canton with Hong Kong.
LONGEST ATTACK
It was the most prolonged attack suffered thus far in the Canton | area. The raids started at 6:30 a. m., and shortly after 9 o’clock a ‘ squadron of Japanese planes bomb- j ed Kongtsun, five miles north of : Canton. At noon another Japanese squadron bombed the northwestern suburbs of the city, dropping 14 bombs.
More than 20 persons were reported killed in the raids on Canton’s suburbs, which drew heavy antiaircraft fire.
United States authorities meanwhile were reported to be planning to reduce the American military forces in the Shanghai area by 50

Medical School's Work On Infantile Paralysis Lauded by Biscailuz
Sheriff Eugene Biscailuz, in an 1 interview over 25 radio stations of the Mutual-Don Lee Pacific coast network with Al Gordon, chairman of the U.S.C. “Fight Paralysis” committee, praised the scientific contributions of the U.S.C. medical school, made in its war against infantile paralysis. He also expressed the j-hope that with the recent grant of $25,000, in addition to many local contributions, for poliomyelitis research. U.S.C. would take even further steps toward the eventual conquest of the dread malady.
“Give a kid a chance to walk,” was the sheriff’s plea, as he appealed for unanimous support of the national infantile paralysis foundation’s nation-wide campaign. Biscailuz also expressed his belief that the 5000 red, white, and blue “Fight Paralysis” buttons, which the university accepted as its quota, would prove insufficient.

“Carl von Dittersdorf was one of the first to attempt the program symphony. About 1784 he composed twelve symphonies with such titles as ‘The Four Age6 of the World,’ ‘Jason and the Golden Fleece,’ etc.
“With such pictorial music as Dvorak's ‘New World' and Tschai-kowski’s ‘Pathetique’ ringing in our ears, we would not regard Dittersdorf’s works as other than absolute music,'*'*but it must be remembered that in the orchestra of pre-classic and classic days, only the strings were to be relied upon; wood-wind and brass instruments were still in the elementary technical and tonal stages," Sessions explained.

Dr. Knopf, acting as chaplain, will give a brief talk on the practical subject of taking our religion to the examination. He will deal with possible value of religion in the everyday life of the student.

Engineers Plan Mountain Trip
Engineering students are planning an outing at one of the nearby mountain resorts between semesters, Charles Schweitzer, president, announced yesterday.
Engineers who have paid their dues are invited to attend the snow party, the president explained. Although a final selection has not been made for the place of the short vacation, Big Pines is expected to be the ultimate choice.
The student engineering council will meet this morning at 10 o’clock to discuss the holiday plans, Schweitzer said. The meeting will take place in 1 Bridge hall.
The engineers will leave on Friday, February 5, but it has not yet been decided how long the outing will last. Those who are interested in going should see the president this week.
Chinese Crew Refuses To Sail Ship To Japan
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 24—(HE) —The Chinese crew of the SJS. Federal today staged a sit-down strike and refused to sail the freighter to Osaka, Japan, with a cargo of steel rails.
Through a spokesman the 39 crew members said they had t--~en taken from Hongkong several months ago to New Orleans under the impression they were to sail the Federal from New Orleans via San Francisco to Shanghai with supplies tor the Chinese government
When the crew learned the ship was destined for Osaka, they refused to sail it and demanded United States government intervention.
Captain Jack Crossett, veteran skipper of China seas, commanding the Federal, conferred on the matter with both the British consulate and Federal officials. The ship is under British registry.
A Chinese on the ship who spoke English declared:
“The ship is now going* to be taken to Japan and scrapped. It will make bullets to kill our countrymen. We will not help them do that.”
The Chinese pointed out that the crew felt death was certain if they sailed the ship.
“We will be made prisoners in Japan and probably shot,” he said. “Even if we are allowed to return to China, we will be arrested and shot as traitors to our country.”
