So Japan marched forward despite their pointed revolvers, and annexed Manchuria. She is now adding five more provinces to her territory. Soon the united states of Japan on one side of the Pacific Ocean will have twice the population of the United States of America on the opposite shore. The French colonies of Cochin-China will then be devoured. Mongolia or the Pacific provinces of Siberia will afterwards be swallowed.

India, with its congress-dominated provinces, is already turning her eyes toward the Land of the Risen Sun, and so-called statesmen in empires menaced by this portent, which is darkening the Eastern sky, are trying to "shoo" the marauders away with meaningless rodomontades as if they were dealing with a flight of sparrows, not of vultures. The Spanish trouble complicates the worry about China. The Chinese worry interferes with action over the Spanish entanglement of Britain and France. Both are interested in the Japanese absorption of China, but cannot give their whole mind and strength to grappling with it because of the grave threat to their position in the Mediterranean. On the other hand, they cannot cope with the Chinese problems as they ought to dc I won't say, after the Manchurian experience, "as they might do" because of demands on their resources in the Mediterranean.

Mussolini Is in an ideal position. He is enjoying himself ostentatiously. He is not bothered about the Japanese. They are his sort. His article in Popolo d'ltalia shows that he regards the bombing and annexing Jap as a brother Fascist.

They are comrades-in-arms against the namby-pambyism of the democratic sttaes. He rejoices in the dilemma of those he regards as timid, insipid, turgid champions of liberty on both sides of the Atlantic Mussolini owes a debt of gratitude to Japan for exposing so conclusively the hollowness behind the League facade. The Japanese an ing power in the hands of appointive boards. "Congress can err, but It cannot be subterranean." Although he said he was "not in any sense" forecasting his committee's report on the bill, also to be submitted to the convention today. Woll predicted the Federation would ask that Congress and state legislatures write into any labor law such wage and hour standards as they deem necessary.

"We may agree that there are areas where workers have been unable to protect themselves, where wages and hours are extortionate and brutal and where the state may be justified and required to step in for the protection of the defenseless," he said. "But where this is true, we sl-all, I feel confident, demand that any minimum wage and any figure representing maximum hours shall be written into the law."

J. Puster of the Frisco Lines nd Hill Vahle of the Beacon Paper Co. have been nominated for President UNERAL TOMORROW Asks: 'Does Mean nexed Manchuria despite its histrionic threats; he would follow their example and annex Abyssinia in defiance of the bellowing of the League Powers. They threatened they struck with wind-blown bladders which Eden, the sanctionist leader, himself burst with a pop. His chief then wrote a letter to Mussolini, asking him to shake hands over it, as we intended him no harm; that, in fact, we wished him well.

France and the rest followed suit in an apologetic procession. How the Italian dictator must despise them all! Mussolini's sole concern Is with Spain and Abyssinia. The democratic states are torn between a policy of do-little in the Mediterranean and do-something in the Pacific In the end they will do nothing in either. That's Mussolini's calculation. Is he right? His poor estimate of his opponents so far has been justified.

What Did Roosevelt Mean? Roosevelt's famous speech came as a surprise, but everyone is asking. "What exactly does it mean?" We have had so many speeches of the same kind delivered by Lord Baldwin, Simon, Hoare, Eden, which ended in fatuity, that we are skeptical as to the real purpose of the President's notable deliverance. Hitherto, leadership in all these tentative crusades has been hesitant and timorous. That accounts for their inefficiency. Is President Roosevelt proffering a new leadership to the nations? That is the question being; asked.

What answer will be given It? Chautemps, the French Premier, in a speech Thursday assumed the President's speech was an invitation to "common action" by the civilized nations of the world against aggressors. Chautemps did not give ua any clew as to what he means by "common action." I am not sure that he Is clear in his own mind as to his own meaning. Meanwhile, Japan has lost no time in making it clear she will not put in an appearance at the contemplated meeting of the signatories to the nine-power treaty; that she will not be deterred or delayed in her present military enterprise by any policy of economic sanctions. She is relying confidently on the assurance of her military leaders that the conquest of China will be an accomplished fact before any economic pressure could become effective. The only national union now in the editorial field is the Newspaper Guild, a I affiliate.

Green termed a I trick" the complaint of the Guild to the National Labor Relations Board charging the Los Angeles Examiner with coercing its employes into joining the new A. F. of L. organization. He said the Federation had charter applications from newspaper writers In Albany and Utica, N.

Seattle, St. Louis and several Southern cities. Green said he personally knew of no basis for reports among convention delegates that James F. Dewey, Labor Department conciliator, and Senator Berry Tennessee, might be surveying for President Roosevelt the possibilities of ending the A. F.

of I fight. Nevertheless, these reports continued to circulate. 26th National Safety Congress. KANSAS CITY, Mo, Oct. 1L Addresses by A.

COMMITTEE Continued From Page One. Union of ore miners in the Tri-state region of Missouri, Oklahoma and Kansas. The Progressive Miners' Union is a rival organization to Lewis' United Mine Workers in Illinois. The blue card union occupies territory claimed by the International Union of Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers, another CIO of- filiate. The Federation's executive council referred to President William Green for investigation a request from the blue card union for an international charter.

Such a charter would permit the union to invade CIO territory outside the tri-state Woll on Wage-Hour Matthew Woll, vice-president of the Federation, denounced the Roosevelt wage-hour bill in a speech at the convention. He said the Federation "will never again voluntarily submit itself or workers in general to the whim of bureaucratic decisions and findings of any Federal board." The bill, still pending when Congress adjourned, provides for appointment of a board to fix minimum wages and maximum hours. Woll proposed that wage and hour Standards be specified in the Jaw itself. "The people have recourse to Congress, but practically none to a board or bureau," he said. Emphasizing that "we do not question the intention of the administration to build toward a better social order," Woll said of the wage-hour bill: "We have found through bitter experience that social and labor progress does not result from plac- loAUEuiWPE Wrrlily Sailing Direct to IRELAND, ENGLAND, FRANCE, GERMANY On America's largest fastest liners Washington Oct.

Debutantes competed yesterday afternoon in out-of-door games, at a "grand rally" given at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Hermann von Schrenk in Florissant. Mr. von Schrenk, complete in red flannel jacket and beret, superintended games, assisted by Clarkson Carpenter, who with Mrs.

Carpenter were co-host and hostess. The first event of the afternoon, "a bottle race for 1937 maids," was tied by Miss Sarah Jane Avant and Miss Grizelda Polk, the latter a debutante of last year. Miss Anne Stickney and William Julius Polk were winners in a. "three- legged race for two-legged people which was followed by a "hop, skip and jump race for 1937 fillies," in which Miss Elizabeth Hoerr crossed the finish line at least two hops in front of her contemporaries. A sack race, always an rcasion for nu merous spills, was won by Miss Anne Wendling in the girls' class, and by Tom Taylor for a similar race run by boy3.

Two heats were run in the "back ward dance for snappy girl sprint ers," Miss Eunice Holderness and Miss Frances McPheeters, both special Veiled Prophet maids, coming in winners. An egg race, with boys competing, was run as escorts tried balancing hard-boiled eggs in a spoon, and results in the two heats showed Harlan Pierpont, formerly of Worchester, and now of St. Louis, and Jimmy James as winners. For the next event, debutantes lined up, each holding a marshmal-low on a string, and with their es corts acting as judges, each tried to eat their marshmallow first, in spite of the yard of string between them and their prizes. Miss Eunice Holderness again won this event.

with Miss Frances McPheeters coming in second. An uproarious game was the "lover's leap for men only," when boys dived from a stepladder into a huge pile of hay, prizes going to that boy who landed with the most agility. Andrew Jackson Lindsay Jr. was decided most graceful of the escorts, and as a reward received a living model done up in a fancy package the model being Miss Ann Wendling, and the package, a paper sack. Giand finale of the games was a horse race but wo'oden duck decoys raced on canvas marked Into squares, each moving one space as decreed by the roll of big wooden dice.

Later in the afternoon a four-piece orchestra played German folk music, and couples danced in true German style, led by William Jul-lius Polk and his sister. Miss Grizelda.
