Will Defend Chinchow NANKING. China, 31. (AP Eugene Chen. China's new foreign minister, told the Associated Press today that the government is determined to defend Chinchow against any Japanese attack. Manchuria never can be independent, he said, because the 30 000,000 Chinese who produce the wealth of that territory have made it so vital a part of China that it never en be separated.

INUKAI ASSURES AMERICA OF EARLY CHINESE PEACE ''I By JAMES A. MIIX (Associated Press Staff Correspondent) lasi. By The Associated Press BOMBAY. Jan. 1 (Friday) Ma-hatma Gandhi informid Viceroy Lord Willingdcn today that he would withhold renewing the civil disobedience campaign of warfare against the British government if the Viceroy would grant him an interview for the discsussion of recent restictive ordinances.

"If you think it worthwhile to aee me." Mr. Gandhi said in reply to a telegram in which ths Viceroy warned him the government would ruthlessly crush agitators, "the working committee of the all-India Congress will suspend operation of a resolution renewing civil disobedience which, at my suggestion, the committee tentatively outlined." This resolution said that in the absence of any satisfactory response from the govern-aent to the contrary, the committee will consider that the government has reduced the Delhi truce to nullity. Parley or Fiyht Alternative In that event, the resolution summoned the nation to resume not only civil disobedience, but also non-payment of taxes, boycott on foreign clothes and picketing of liquor shope. and to begin again the unlicensed manufacture and collection of salt. The resolution also contained a grim command to the followers of the Congress that "if processions and demonstrations are organized, only those should join who will stand lathi (staff) charges and bullets without moving from their places." The resolution rejected Prime Minister MacDonald'g final declaration at the recent round-table conference as wholly unsatisfactory and inadequate.

"Nothing short of complete Independence, carrying full control over defense, external affairs and finance, with such safeguards as may be demonstrably necessary in the interest of India, can be regarded by the congress as satisfactory," the resolution said. It demanded that the government institute an impartial public inquiry into the events leading up to repressive ordinances in various provinces. "You demand cooperation from the congress without returning any on behalf of the government," Mr. Gandhi said in his message to the viceroy. "I can read in no other way your peremptory refusal to discuss the ordinances.

'The Congress is at one with the government in condemning assassinations and should heartily cooperate with the government in exterminating such Crimea. "On your own narration of the events on the northwest frontier, there is no warrant for the arrest of popular leaders like Abdul Gaflar Khan, for passing extra-legal ordinances making life and property utterly Insecure, and for shooting unarmed and peaceful crowds for daring to demonstrate against the arrest of their trusted leaders.

In welcoming 1932 I ha many Impressions but, first of all I want to tep Into th new world.

The present government confronting two urgent questions, namely Manchuria and the economic problem at home. Both ar temporary matters. The confusion and excitement lit Manchuria might be compared with a neighborhood fire which for the time being rouses all local Inhabitants. The fire will soon be out and peace and order, restored! The more Important question at the moment is what is to be. done concerning permanent relations between China and Japan.

The Man-churian affair is purely a local incident and we hope will be settled in the near future, but of course arriving at a definite aereement generally with the Chinese is a more com plicated affair and of necessity will require time for solution. The real motive of Sun Yat Sen'a revolution in Chin was to bring China and Japan closer together. I believe therefore it is the duty of the Japanese people to strive for Improvement of relations with China for the maintenance of peace In th far east. I believe the intelligent class of Chinese people quite agree with me in this matter. Japan is ready enter into direct negotiations with China whenever a strong government is established on a sound foundation.

China and Japan should shake hands for the assurance of peace, not only in the far east. but in the interests of the world generally, suffering from economic strife USE VICK PLAN BETTER XOMTROL OF COLDS" 4753 Charges of Drunkenness Made; One More Than Previous Period A total cf 20,083 arrests during 1931. tn increase of 4753 over the jar 1S30 was made by the Wilmington police.

MANY MOTORISTS HERE AWAIT 1932 LICENSES A number of motorUts who saw" the id wane last night without having received their licenses for 1932 gathered at the pcitoffice to see if they had arrived in the later mails. Postoffiee clerks told them, however, that it would be impossible to deliver the licenses until this morning. Several hundred arrived on the train from Dover at 6 o'clock and a number more on later trains. Wilmington magistrates were kept busy all day yesterday issuing license tags to persons who had waited until the last minute to have their machines registered. Some of the magistrates remained open until last last night, and several of them will ketp their offices open for a half day today.

The limit for using 1931 tags expired at midnight, and attaches at the Secretary of State's office announced that since motorists had been given of December in which to purchase 1932 tags and half of the month in which to use them, no extension of time will be granted for the use of tags.

722 KING STREET JAMES F. HEARS Kaakalwier Fwoerat Darertwr. rhoae For over two years a committee of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, with the aid of specialists various branches of science, has been preparing a series of twent.j- even science booklists. They have been prepared not for the technical experts in the various branches of science but f3r the amateur student, for those whose interest is mainly that of enthusiasm not that of a career. The books selected.

theTefcre, are popular though not ephemeral. Funds fcr printing the lists have been provided by the Carnegie Corporation of New York and they are to be distributed free, within certain limitations, by public libraries, college libraries, museums, etc. The Free Library has received one set of these lists and is asked to let the association know how many copies of each list tbe library can distribute without waste. In order to get an approximate idea of the number of copies to call fcr the librarian requests anyone whi is interested in any cf the following subjects to notify the library at once. Perhaps some may be interested in several subjects that the librarian can send lists to those who have requested them.

Prompt action is necesrary since a small charge for the lists will be made after this first free distribution. It is probable that the Free Library will not have all the books recommended on these list. Among books now available are; Science Today, History and Biography of Science, Exploring For Science. Mathematics For the Layman, Wonders of the Sky Astronomy, Geology, Minerals, Geography, Wind and the Weather, Modern Physics, Chemistry in the Life of Today, Microbes and Microscope. Science of Life Biology, Botany For the Layman, Wi't Flowers, Ferns, Mosses and Fungi, Tlrees and Shrubs, Science of Animal Life Zoology, Our Friends and Animals, Our Friends the Birds, Insect Life, Sea and the Shore.

IN 1932 HOOVER ASSERTS (Continued From First Page s. have arisen during the past year to vex a weary world than during any year within cur memory," his message said.

"Unleased forces cf economic and financial depression, with consequent political unrest, haa taxed the ingenuity of those world leaders who have fought and are fighting with great earnestness to maintain the ideal of peace and to achieve the return of normal economic condition. Sees Depression Breaking "While a break in the clouds is apparent cn the horizon, the shadow of depression which weighs down men's hearts has not yet passed away. It remains our duty, thsrefore, to redouble our efforts to restore commerce, industries and shipping to normality and to inspire friendship, tolerance and peace in the minds of men." Secretary Lamont of the Commerce Department said evidence was accumulating "that liquidation has largely run its course and that natural up-building forces are beginning to take hold." From Secretary Doak of the Labor Department came an assertion that while things "are not what we would wish them to be," he thought there were "signs of improvement." EUROPE FACES NEW YEAR WITH CONFIDENCE, HOPE LONDON, Dec. 31 (AP) As 1932 dawns in Europe the wheels of the complicated machinery of international life are throbbing with new energy for settlement of world economic and political troubles. Associated correspondents from Finland to th; Mediterranean, from Soviet Russia to the Saorstat.

from Ulster to far Turkey have surveysd the continental scene. Instead of despair strong undercurrents and hope for the new year were revealed in many countries. In Berlin, Paris and Geneva, and Basel, new forces are digging at the roots of problems born of the world war. Italy, despite tremendous financial obligations to American bankers, is buoyant and enthusiastic over the coming celebrations marking ten years of Fascist, government. Spain, the newest republic, having dethroned Alfonso and acclaimed Niceto Alcala Zamora as president, rides the crest of a wave of confidence that the new regime will cure her ills.

Soviet Russia, which is more than half the continent territorially, has been too busy with her "five year plan" of gigantic industrialization to bother with the rest of Europe's trouble. Bent on completing the five year plan in four years Russia knows no unemployment, no depression, no crisis in the European sense of the word. The tangle of Franco-German relations still persists. Germany confidently expects 1932 to bring a new deal in world reparations. Across the Rhine, the fundamental point of French national policy is the Insistence that Germany will continue to make good the damage caused by war invarion.

Great Britain's troubles are a part of the larger world Beset by unemployment, forced off the gold OBITUARY NOTES HOWARD L. BOYD Chief of Police Boyd is receiving congratulations today on his birthday anniversary. He is one of the youngest chiefs of police of a major city in the United States. He became a member of the Bureau of Police on August 1, 1922, and during the ensuing nine years worked his way from patrolman to chief. standard and plagued by her adverse balance of trade.

Great Britain is going ahead with renewed vigor. The prerent active phase of the European crisis started with the proposed Austro-German customs union. It has spread to cover disarmament, World War debts and reparations, currency and tariff questions, economic problems of ail kinds. Geneva epitomizes the hope and the uncertainty of Europe. The disarmament conference and the reparations conference, scheduled for Lausanne will assume an importance and significance transcending any International gatherings yet held in the opinion ct international observers.

SLOAN SHUNS FORECAST, BUT VOICES CONFIDENCE NEW YORK. Dec. 31 (AP). Alfred P. Sloan president of the General Motors Corporation, is one of many industrial leaders who at the end of the old war are reluctant to forecast the likely trends in the new.

Fundamental bases which provide the strongest basis of confidence for the future, he said, are furnished, however, by the "desire to possess and the willingness to work to possess." To visualize the trends of any new year is difficult, even under ordinary circumstances," Mr. Sloan stated. "With all the problems that exist tcday, with their dominating influence on our economic situation, any expression of opinion can have no basis of fact." N. Y. TRADERS SPEED 1931 WITH SONG, CHEERS YORK.

Dec. 31 (AP) A popular radio orchestra helped the New York Stock Exchange speed out 1931 during the traders' annual celebration held on the floor toward the close of the year's last market today. A favorite tune was "Happy Days Are Here Again." Eulls and bears joined forces on this occasion to sing the refrain. Confetti was thrown by members on the floor, and also from the gallery. While the combination of singing and orchestral music furnished evidences of good cheer, several members remarked that it was the cheer that came from seeing a drab year gone, as much as the hope of a better year to come, that occasioned me rejoicing.

UTILITY HEAD PREDICTS EARLY STABILIZATION EAST PITTSBURG, Dec. 31 (APi. A bread survey of the business outlook for 1932 brings the con- i elusion that "plans and economic forces now at work all tend toward I early stabilization," in the opinion of A. W. Robertson, chairman of the board of Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company.

"I personally believe." Mr. Robertson said today, "that industrial leaders are but surely massing their forces on a new frontier of business. I further believe that changes made, and in process, presage an entirely new economic alignment simpler, surer, safer and flexible enough to meet the rapidly changing conditions in world business."
