CHINA SEA ISLANDS SEIZED BY FRANCE TO BALK JAPAN (Continued From First Page) sion of an quota imports from Japan. This was the second time in flva years France had taken over islands of the South China Sea in which Japan had at least a strategic interest. Seven Islands Seized in 1933 In July, 1933, France occupied seven previously ownerless islands some 500 miles southeast of the Paracels between Palawan, one of the Philippine Islands, and Indochina. Japan protested on the basis that a Japanese fertilizer company bad collected phosphates there several years previously and thereby had established Japan's interest. At that time the French foreign office promised to respect Japan's interests in the islets, chief of which wer Tempest and Thitu.

That group also was considered to have value as bases for seaplanes and small naval craft. The 1933 occupation was undertaken only after consultation with the United States interested because of the nearness of the Philippines.

July 4 (JD The Intervention of the National Labor Relations Board and five similar state boards greatly reduced the use of "force, violence, espionage 'and Intimidation against labor" the American Civil Liberties Union reported today in its eighteenth annual survey. "The national labor- relations act is in substance a civil liberties document," the report said. "How fair the administration of the act has been is demonstrated by the Supreme Court's support of the board's action in every case which has come before it, and in the almost unanimous support of the board's orders by the circuit courts of appeal.

"While resistance to the act and its administration is widespread, it reflects obviously only a minority of employers who command avenues of propaganda out of all proportion to their size." Nail Interference Cited The union found more interference with the civil rights of German-American Nazis than with Communists. Upon a "blacklist" of civil liberties, the union gave first place to Jersey City, N. "where repression is so continuous as to clearly stand out over others." The city, said the report, is "dominated by the political machine of Mayor Frank Hague in the interest of open shop business." Next on the blacklist was Harlan County, "for its long reign Of terror against unionization of the local miners. Memphis, "where city officials have banned activities of CIO organizers" and San Antonio, "where a political machine dominating the police department has a long record of attacks on the rights of Mexican workers and tin-employed" followed. Others on "Blacklist' Noted Other cities and areas on the blacklist were Tampa, "under control of public officials dominated by the Ku Klux Chicago "where a police department controlled by a political machine is a constant menace to civil Boston, "where an unparalled censorship of periodicals, books, plays and movies ha.s long been Puerto Rico, where a quasi-colonial government under a military government has long Interferred with the civil rights of independence and Gallup.

REQUESTS BAFFLE PARLEY SPONSORS France Sends Champagne, Britons Ask for Ale But Vassar Bans Such Drinks NEW YORK, July 4 IJF) Ale for the English, champagne for the French, water for the Bulgarians and a great big headache for the local committee of the second World Youth Congress. The Congress opens next month at Vassar College with 500 delegates from 45 countries.

And the headache derives from this: That although Vassar was originally endowed with money made from a brewery, its charter forbids alcoholic liquors in the dormitories or on the college grounds. The local committee, happy in its chance to hold the congress amid such lovely surroundings, was going ahead with its smoothly running plans until word came from the French. Some enterprising wine growers of France, with estimable generosity, decided to provide cham pagne for the delegates. And since the congress Is to dis cuss world peace, the matter of saying "no" to the French puts the committee in a ticklish situation. To complicate it further the Eng lish sent advance information that the five British delegates desire ale with their meals.

And to tax the wits of the com mittee more, they were reminded that R. Chosseloff is coming from Bulgaria as representative of the abstinent youth organizations. Hopefully the committee is waiting for Miss Betty Shields-Collins, international secretary of the con-cress, due to arrive here this week from Geneva. With all her skill in diplomacy, the committee thinks, she will settle the question of wine. ale, water and the headache.
