PEIPING, Nov. 22. Forces of the Japanese army were reported in various quarters tonight to be concentrating along China's great wall coincident with renewed agitation for the autonomy of north China. Chinese sources expressed concern at what they said was the massing of Japanese cavalry and infantry troops seventy miles north of Peip- ing. The latest concentration was said to be at Kupeikow and to be receiving reinforcements constantly.

Party Adopts Measures. Significance was attached here to the adoption by the congress of the Kuomintang (national government party) at Nanking of measures providing for "a great emphasis on the enforcement of local self-government throughout the country." A Shanghai dispatch said it was reported there Japanese militarists are reopening negotiations with factions seeking north China's autonomy and that uneasiness there was increased. JAP LEADERS DEBATE. Opposing Views on Autonomy of Chinese Provinces Heard by Cabinet. TOKIO, Nov.

22. Japan's minister of war and her foreign minister debated opposing views on autonomy of five provinces in north China before the Cabinet today while Tokio diplomats insisted the separatist dispute was "a matter of Chinese politics." The war minister, Yoshiyuki Ka-washima, urged acceptance of Japanese military views at a Cabinet session which also heard the "report" of Foreign Minister Koki Hirota. Political experts, who said the life of the present government might depend on the autonomy discussions, asserted the Cabinet debate involved the issue between a strong army element which is insisting that plans for secessions of north China be carried out, and civilian leaders who temporarily have restrained the Japanese military in China from enforcing the separatist movement. The foreign minister generally was expected to support a compromise suggested by Akira Ariyo-ehi, Japanese ambassador to China, which would permit the Nanking, or Chinese central government, to retain much authority in the disputed area. 30 DEAD AS STORM RIPS ITALY, SICILY Buildings FallMount Etna Menaces Loss $800,000 Earth Shakes.
