EBEL RANKS N DISSENSION Insurgent Deserters Describe Uneasiness HENDAYE. Franco-Spanish Fr oner. Jan. 16—<r.P>—Spanish Loyal-officials asserted tonight that rebel deserters who entered ;vemment lines southwest of Ter--1 had described widespread and creasing dissension in Insurgent -ritorr. Asked if there were any likeli-of a revolt soon against Gen-alissimo Francisco Franco, they ied in a written statement to loyalist officers: "We cannot foresee a revolt, for tionalist authorities exercise the itest vigilance and would not esitate to suppress any insurrec-on most rigorously. •"Hie numerous Moroccan contin-~nts. which now are held in re-erve in the rear, would be used for this repression. “But one thing is certain—there uneasiness everywhere, and the tuition is becoming unbearable. ~Ve did not want to be mixed up in lhe trouble so we deserted.” War activity was marked by Ifc-wnbing raids on both sides, and jjninor isolated skirmishes. Interfratemity Council |To Have Special Meeting I To clear up the business which pras not completed at the last meeting. the interfratemity council will {have a special session this morning, 5’red Hall, president, announced yesterday. r'”he meeting will be in the social all ot the Student Union and will In at 9:50 a an. Hal aatd that all members should prompt, as it will be necessary to tha meeting completed tr the •saembiy panod. MOSCOW, Jan. 16—(L'P)— High Soviet officials indicated tonight that the Soviet union has begun an intensive naval building program to compete with Japan in sea strength in the far east. They admitted the most of the construction was in the smaller units, but said new industrial projects now under way would make possible the addition of battleships to the Red navy in the next few years. Russia thus was plunged into the feverish world-wide naval rearmament race, involving Britain, the i United States. France, Japan. Germany. and Italy, in which every first class power is speeding naval construction to unprecedented scales. FLEETS REINFORCED Premier Vyacheslaff M. Molotov’s announcement to the Soviet parliament Saturday that “our fleets are being intensily reinforced” aroused widespread speculation in foreign circles tonight over just how strong the Soviet navy actually is. The number of ships in each category and the Soviet building program are a greater secret than any other phase of Soviet arms. It is known that while in 1934. the Soviet fleet in the far east included 12 large, fast, well-equipped submarines. this schedule has been greatly increased in the succeeding three vars. PERCENTAGES COMPARED Latest figures presented by former Admiral Orlov to the eighth congress of Soviets on November 28. 1936. were in percentages and gave no actual basis for comparison. He said: “If we take the number of submarines in 1933 as 100 per cent, then there are 715 per cent in 1936. Smaller craft number 300 per cent, coast artillery 175 per cent, coast fortifications 100 per cent and naval aviation 500 per cent.” TOKYO, Monday, Jan. 17—(U.P.)—Prince Fumimaro Kon-oye, prime minister of Japan, today summoned high government officials to a conference which is expected to embark Japan upon a “war to the death” against the Chinese regime of Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek.

Overshad- SENTIMENT FOR WAR owing the meeting will be a threat which was not there a month ago when the invitation to the white house parley was extended — Mr. Roosevelt’s demand that all business holding companies be purged from the economic structure. HOLDING COMPANIES It could not be learned tonight whether the holding company problem will be discussed. Mr. Roosevelt did not bring it up at his meeting last Friday with labor, industrial, and financial leaders headed by Thomas Lammont. a partner in the J. P. Morgan & Co. banking house, and John L. Lewis, chairman of the committee for industrial organization. PROGRAM OUTLINED Industrialists who have testified before the senate unemployment investigating committee, however, have outlined a program which they feel will inspire increased co-operative efforts to combat this and future trade slumps. They have demanded repeal or drastic revision of the undistributed profits tax, the capital gains and losses tax, the Wagner labor act; elimination of government competition with private business: a more temperate policy toward the utility industry; relaxation of stock market restrictions and decentralization of relief with communities bearing an increased cost of providing for their indigents. TO INTRODUCE ACT Meanwhile, strong sentiment was developing for an outright declaration of war against the former Nanking government. In a formal statement Sunday, the government announced that it would recall its ambassador Shigeru Kawagoe, from China and refuse to recognize the fugitive Chinese government, now based at Hankow. The statement indicated that the Japanese government, “its patience exhausted,” was prepared to carry out the conquest of all China, and to encourage the Japanese-controlled regime of Dr. Tang Er-Ho at Peiping. SUPPORT REQUESTED The prime minister’s announcement of the conference with diet leaders today said that the government would “request the fullest cooperation for the fulfillment” of the decisions of the imperial conference while “spiritual mobilization” of the Japanese people was being worked “to the highest pitch.” The announcement said the Japanese army and navy was prepared for “more vigorous punitive action.” DECLARATION URGED An outright declaration of war was urged by the organization of secretaries of members of the diet, composed of some of the members of the league on China problems. Nine members of the diet were present at the meeting which adopted a resolution urging the govern- The administration is moving ment to petition the emperor for a steadily toward meeting some of declaration of war.

Seamen To Discuss CIO Affiliation SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 16—(U.P)— Maritime union delegates from every seaboard in the country will convene here tomorrow for the purpose of forming all unlicensed sea unions into a single organization under the banner of the Committee for Industrial Organization. The meeting will be held under auspices of the National Martime Unity conference. Representatives will draw up a constitution which will govern the labor activities of more than 100,000 seamen from Atlantic, Gulf, Great Lakes, and Pacific areas. NYA Student Aid Available Applications for NYA student aid during the coming semester of February to June may be made in the eemploymnt bureau, 228 Student Union tomorrow.

Americans Await Evacuation Copyright, 1938, by United Presi SHANGHAI, Monday, Jan. 17— (L'.P)—Eighty-two Americans, a third of them children, today awaited evacuation from the Port of Chefoo on the Shantung coast as teiror spread in the wake of withdrawals of the civil government, including the police. The United States light cruiser Marblehead, dispatched from Tsing tao on the lower coast of the peninsula, hastened to Chefoo to take out the Americans if it proves necessary. The situation was regarded as critical, although reports from Che-Continued on Page Four Neutrality Law Cannot Be Invoked Far Eastern Hostilities Technically Close to Actual State of War EDITOR NERVOUS OVER JANUARY'S WAMPUS’ By the Inquiring Reporter The energetic little editor of the Wampus was so busy cleaning up his office that he didn’t here me enter.

Harder Work Proposed For California Prisons FRESNO, Jan. 16—0J.P)— More physical labor for both prison and jail inmates was recommended as a means of rehabilitating California’s penal system by Earl J. Warren, district attorney of Alameda county and principal speaker at a weekend meeting of peace officers of the San Joaquin valley. The Alameda official pointed out that most prisoners spend their time in solitude or in talking and “come out anti-social, knowing more about crime than when they went in and are more of a problem to police and law enforcement agencies.” TROJAN STAFF PHOTOS SCHEDULED FOR TODAY Photographs of Daily Trojan staff members will be taken this afternoon in the editorial office.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16 —(LT.E)— According to preliminary indications tonight President Roosevelt will abstain from invoking the neutrality law against China and Japan, although Japan’s severance of diplomatic relations with the Nanking government teechnically brought the far eastern hositilities close to an actual state of war. State department officials studied all reports available on the new and graver turn of events, but withheld specific comment. They pointed out that there has been no actual declaration of war and that Mr. Roosevelt must find that a state of war exists before he can invoke the act. OFFICIALS CONFIDENT Officials were confident that he will avoid applying the act so long as it is compatible with domestic politics because he and Secretary of State Cordell Hull are known to feel that enforcement of neutrality would handicap the United States diplomatically in dealing with the far eastern situation. It was pointed out that if the act were invoked this country would not be in a position to maintain its present influence in far eastern affairs, especially in its support of treaty rights and contingent policies which it has fostered. Also it is believed that Japan would gladly seize upon such action as an indication that the United States was withdrawing, at least partially, from the Orient. FIRM STAND TAKEN President Roosevelt thus far has taken a firm stand against invocation despite the loud clamor of peace organizations and an active minority in congress. He has been supported by a large bloc which maintains that on the surface Japan and China still are friendly and therefore war technically does not exist. The chief executive may change his views, some observers believe, especially if the new development stirs up a popular clamor. High government officials, however, place the odds against invocation at five to one. Defense Policies Upheld Chairman ol Naval Board Says Armaments 'Only Peace Assurance' WASHINGTON, Jan. 16 —(U.P)— President Roosevelt’s national defense policies were defended tonight by Chairman David I. Walsh, D., Massachusetts, of the senate naval affairs committee, and condemned by Sen. Gerald P. Nye, R., North Dakota, who termed them part of a “campaign of getting the United States ready for a slaughter of its men on foreign fields.” Speaking over a national radio forum of the Mutual Broadcasting company, Walsh asserted that strong and adequate national defense is the “best, and perhaps, the only assurance of peace.” He advocated building up the navy as the “first line of defense” as demanded by Mr. Roosevelt. PEOPLES RIGHT Nye, leader of the senate mandatory neutrality bloc and co-author of the neutrality act, said that the people have a “right to ask what in the world the administration thinks it is up to in asking for these mad increases for the navy.” Walsh said that the “American people are wholeheartedly in favor of disarmament as an avenue to peace, provided the disarmament is mutual and universal.” But. he added, the people do not favor leaving our country defenseless when all the rest of the world is in arms.” NAVY IS DEFENSE “Our navy is necessarily our first line of defense and, if impregnable, our complete defense,” he said, “because by the circumstances of our geographical position if any attack comes, it must come by way of the seas. In the event of war we must have a navy and air force ready to withstand attack immediately — at the very hour war is declared and to repel any attempts at an invasion unit! a war-strength army can be recruited and trained.” He said that in urging national defense “we must deal with realities rather than theories.” The realities of today, he added, “admit of only one construction, namely, that strong national defense is the best, and perhaps, the only assurance of peace.” The Italian conquest of Ethiopia would never have been undertaken had not Ethiopia been defenseless, Walsh charged. He said that “Japan’s present campaign to subjugate China is predicated on the preposition that China is no match for Japan’s strong military machine.” CALLS BLUM President Albert Lebrun of France, who called upon Leon Blum fo form a cabinet following the collapse of Premier Chautemp’s government. Kansas Squad To Debate Trojans and Visitors Will Vie Tomorrow In Non-Decision Meet Two visiting debaters from Kansas State college, James Gould and Edward De Clerck, will oppose the able to organize a government. Cabinet Sought By Blum Socialist Leader Called By Lebrun When Other Officials Refuse Request PARIS, Monday. Jan. 17—(U.P)— Leon Blum, stocky little socialist leader who headed the only socialist government in French history, today sought to form a cabinet which may include a former coal miner and an ex-pastry cook, in a strenuous effort to salvage the disrupted “popular front” government. Blum was hustled into the breach after two radical socialist leaders, former Finance Minister Georges Bonnet and former Premier Albert Sarraut, refused to attempt to form a government in the face of opposition from the socialist and communist groups. CABINET OVERTHROWN Blum was called to the Elysee palace, home of the president, shortly after 6 p.m. He emerged 40 minutes later and said: “Lebrun has asked me to form a cabinet. I shall try.” The 65-year-old socialist, whose cabinet was overthrown seven months ago when the French senate refused to grant him extraordinary monetary powers, was expected to reiterate the same demands if he is Federal Control Of Private T.V.A. Concerns Asked % NEW YORK, Jan. 16— <U.P>— The proposal of Wendell L. Willkie, president of the $1,162,000,000 Commonwealth and Southern corporation, that the federal government purchase all private utilities operating in the T.V.A. area was considered by financial experts today as a “master stroke” which might go a long way toward solving the perplexing power problem. Main interest in financial circles was centered in what was considered Willkie’s call for a showdown —for a complete placing of the administration’s cards on the table. The administration, experts pointed out, has contended time and again that it does not want to destroy the private utility organizations with which it is competing in the T.V.A. area, but that it has found it necessary to seek elimination of “abuses” by the power holding companies. Few believe that the administration can purchase, even if it wants to, the companies in the affected area. In the first place there have been indications that any attempt by the federal government to buy those companies might create an opposition bloc in congress to what might be considered a first step toward government ownership of utilities, the railroads and communications—toward a kind of “social- Methodist Head To Visit Forum Dr. Robert J. Taylor, professor of religious education in charge of the religious forum, will introduce Walter C. Buckner as the speaker today at the weekly meeting at 4 p. m. in Bowne room, Mudd hall. Buckner is the Methodist Episcopal superintendent of the Long Beach district. The general theme for the religious forum is “Organized Religion Building a Better World.” The speaker will tell of the plans and program of the Methodist Episcopal church for world improvement. Sponsored by the School of Religion, these lectures are open to all students, faculty members, and the general public.

Accompanied by Coach Simmers, the visitors are making an extended tour of the West Coast. Besides the University of Denver and Utah, they have opposed teams from California and Stanford university, encountering the latter on Saturday. After meeting the Trojans, the Kansas squad will face debaters from the University of Arizona and Texas. From Texas they return home, after having completed a schedule of seven debates. Gould and De Clerck represented Kansas State college in a non-decision debate against Livingston and Atkinson while the Trojans were touring the east over the holidays. Using the same topic, "Resolved: that the several states should adopt the unicameral form of legislation,” the visitors this time will have the negative side. AMERICAN HELD IN JERUSALEM JERUSALEM. Jan. 16 —(UJ?)— Police held a man who gave his name as Issa Kteini. reportedly an American citizen, for investigation tonight after a bomb exploded outside a cooperative restaurant in the center of the city. The explosion narrowly missed a group of Jewish laborers. The situation was regarded as extremely critical, even if Blums should succeed in forming a cabinet, since radical socialists have made their support to Blum contingent upon his pledge of monetary freedom. FEVERISH ACTIVITY Blum’s acceptance ended 24 hours of feverish activity at the Elysee palace, during which Bonnet. Sarraut. Chautemps, and Blum were in almost constant conference. Bonnet informed the president early today that he was unable to salvage support of the socialists and communists in the face of the opposition of labor and left wing groups to his financial policies, and declined the offer of premiership. President Lebrun summoned Blum and it was understood the smiling little socialist leader was offered two alternatives: 1. To attempt to form a cabinet himself. 2. To support Albert Sarraut, former premier and a radical socialist Blum suggested that Sarraut be asked to form the government, and it was understood his appointment would have been acceptable to the three powerful groups in the “popular front’’ bloc—socialists, radical Continued on Page Foor FRENCH SEEK 'CSAR' LINK Mysterious Blonde Implicated in Bombing PARIS, Jan. 16—<U.P)—A myster- Police reports said an automobile 10US blonde woman who may be 1 able to supply a link between the bearing United States license plates, driven by Kteini. passed the restaurant almost at the time of the explosion.
