Japanese efforts to, exploit the resources of their of occupation in China have been grave- ly handicapped by wha.t to a world-wide credit embargo. Financial Insiders say that Japanese applications for Credit have been rejected by every major bank in New York, San Francisco, London, Paris, Amsterdam and Geneva, de- 1 spite sweeping assurances of protection and prompt repayment. Rome and Berlin can't help Tokyo ori this 'problem, even if they wanted to. as they no cash capital to spare. The Japanfsj, however, are- pa-, tient and persistent, and they haven't quit trying yet.

Their military authorities are cooperating (by being' as polite and unprovoca-tlve as possible towards American pay for the properties taken over from Commonwealth Southern, Serious doubts have now arisen about that. The R.F.C. is evidently not sure it has legal authority to make a loan for this pur-posce and Jesse Jones shows no enthusiasm whatever about putting up the dough. The T.V.A. is therefore in the uncomfortable position of having committee itself to pay $54,000,000 for private plants and lines without knowing where the money is coming from.

As we' recently reported," the House Military Affairs Committee will probably recommend a com-, promise that will enable the agency the finance its Tennessee Electric Power transaction, but no others. Congress would vote for that with a sigh of relief. But conservative legislators and New York bus-, iness interests hope that the delay and uncertainty will teach the T.V.A. to be more cautious about A. if MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The Associated Press is exclusively entitled to the use rcr publication of all newa dispatches to it, or we otherwise credited in this, paper and also the local news pub-Jif bed herein.

PIS AGREEMENT v' The Indefinite postponement of the Investment banking phase of the inquiry, originally scheduled for last week, has stirred plenty of caustic comment in financial New York. A number of leading investment bankers had been subpoenaed to com, to Washington and expiain to tho Temporary National Economic Committee why 'so much private capital is idle. The boys were all set tp tell the committee plenty about the effect of New Dea policies when they were suddenly notified that the party was off. 1 For once, this was a great disappointment to the prospective witnesses They felt they had a lovely open ing and they Intended to make the most of it. Embittered WaU Street-ers remark that Washington can "dish it out" but evidently cant "take it." Insiders understand there was a sharp difference of opinion between S.E.C.-ers Jerome-Frankr-and -LeoB Henderson about the wisdom of the postponement.

Henderson is said: to have wanted to go ahead regardless, while Frank figured dis-. cretion was the better, part Of polit hi a 2b fcXxEs OF SUBSCRIPTION (By (Please Turn tQ Page Seven) One year, in advance Six months, fa advance. month' m.zz-Z..ZZ'';M Ce week .20 (By Mail Outside Newsboy Delivery) One year, in advance The JIST Six months, in ,2.50 If "i Tnree months, in L50 iBive service 1 'v- NON-DELIVERY 1 vVcA r- 1 City subscribers, who, or any reason all to receive their copy of the paper Will please cU 47, before ical valor.

If for no other than selfith ESSENTIAL The bill to authorize, the Tennessee Valley Authority to sell of its own bonds to finance the purchase of private power properties Is stil bottled up in the House Military Affairs Committee, The T.VA.-ers are privately getting worried about it. They aren't at all sure they can complete their deal with Commonwealth Southern unless Congress acts soon. The agency already has power to Issue $50,000,000 in bonds to construct power facilities and more to. buy transmission lines. But T.V.A.'s purchase of Tennessee Electric Power involves generating plants, which were not Included in the law conferring this authority.

Moreover, some of the properties to be' acquired are In the Cumberland River- valley, and there is' a technical legal, question whether they are also in the Tenn-see valley the only area in which the agency is lawfully qualified to operate. Amendments covering these points are essential before T.VA. can safely go ahead with its bond sales. lit 0 dm 5 A Tale of a Ship, Both Symbolic and Realistic The plight of a ship load of German Jews, refugees from the Fatherland, rejected by Cuba and returning, to a land that despises them, makes a pathetic chapter in modern history. This ship load of Jewish people is symbolic of people that are persecuted in many nations, robbed, kicked, abused and insulted because they happened to be descendants of the Nomadic Abraham.

How such an anti-Semitic movement got under way in a world supposed to be enlightened and intelligent is dif ficult to understand. From Hitler, Father Coughlin, General Moseley' and other such fanatics, one would imagine the Jews Were a malignant, evil power, threatening to "bestride this harrow world like a colossus." Those who are silly enough to agree with Hitler, Coughlin and Moseley must think the rest of mandkind is inferior. There are 15,000,000 members of the Jewish race 'scattered without racial organization, without a national government, in a world peopled by nearly souls. The truth is that those who profess fear of the Jewish people are either demagogues, narrow-minded fanatics, or are possessed with inferiority complex. There are outstanding Jewish people who have contributed much to the world and to the nation to which they swear allegience.

As in all humanity, some Jewish people are outstanding, some are average, and some are below average.

Their "unforgivable sin" is that they happened to be born of the race that produced Judas, the traitor, which likewise produced Jesus, the Savior. Hitler Speaks Again Chancellor Hitler, who has maintained a long silence, for him, is being heard from again. The German dictator, speaking before a vast crowd of German war veterans Sunday, warned that Britain and France were pursuing a policy of "encirclement." He said their actions are reviving international practices that led to the last World War. We wonder if the shrewd former corporal timed his speech. It came after Russia rejected Britain's proposal for a military alliance and while France and Britain were renewing efforts to attract the Soviet Power.

Was it timed to warn other nations against joining the bloc? Was it calculated to thwart Britain's and France's plans? We don't believe Hitler is mad enough to plunge Germany in war if the pact with Russia is completed. What Hitler wants above all other things right now is to prevent the. alliance and keep Germany's potential, foes scattered. It is his technique to deal with nations marked for liquidation, one at a time at his convenience. Hence a pact "one for all and all for one" would upset any future expansion by force.

Until the British-French-Russian alliance is completed, we may expect to hear much from Hitler from time to time.

Least of all do they anticipate immediate moves to balance the budget, lower taxes, abolish subsidies. Their mail convinces them that the majority of the people are still strong for the spending spree F.D.R. inspired.

Letters from acknowledged Republicans who hate Roosevelt contain paragraphs of praise for A.A.A., P.W.A., W.P.A. and 65.B. A farm constituent may condemn W.P.A. expenditures, but he usually winds up with a request for larger agricultural appropriations. A business man may demand lower taxes for himself, but he often recommends higher levies for the fellow across the street.

For this reason Senator Vanden-berg's one-term proposal doesn't seem so fantastic to working members of Congress.

Vice President Garner has decided definitely to become a candidate for the Democratic nomination for President. His name will be submitted before state primaries and at the national convention whether or not President Roosevelt decides to run for a third term. A "stop-Garner" move will be launched immediately, with the nomination being kept clear for Mr.

Roosevelt, if he should decide he wanted it. The Texan will be branded as a and a betrayer. The year 1939 has indications that a bitter party split in in the making. The President, regardless of whether he wants a third term, will do all in his power to prevent the nomination of the Vice President. To him the man known in .1932 as "wild," has become the spirit of conservatism.

For Gamer, despite the vice presidency which usually dooms a man to political oblivion, has become the outstanding conservative Democrat. He, more than any other public official, has spiked New Deal legislation. The President possibly does not want to succeed himself as Democratic standard bearer, but he is so sold on the principles of the New Deal that he would probably accept the nomination if he is convinced no other man of his political faith could succeed. So it looks like" a real fight between the President and the Vice President for party control and possibly for the Presidency. Such a fight would do more to -elect a Republican than all the combined efforts of the G.O.P.

And DUD New York City's experiment as a free trade zone has proved so discouraging that Congress- and other ports are souring on the proposition. Thus another reform under the Roosevelt-LaGuardia aegis has apparently blown up.A Original scheme was to create a port where foreign goods could be stored free of duty pending reship-ment within the United States or to other countries.

It was expected to boost trade and provide a fresh source of profits for New York handlers and merchant men, also to serve as a model Jor other ports Philadelphia, New Orleans, Francisco. But the city made a contract with a single warehouse corporation to handle the goods at a figure far below the regular price.
