Hanging Starts Series of Riots In North Ireland By Service. BELFAST, Sept. hanging of Thomas Williams, 19-year- old mcmbei of the outlawed Irish Republican army, at A. M. today, loosed a series of disorders, Including anti-British demonstra tlons and a strike.

Rioting begun Immediately after Williams was executed for the murder of a constable. Crowds, made up moitly of women and young girls, formed processions and marched through the main streets singing Republican songs and booing British army officers and Ulster policemen. A clash between Republican and Ulster crowds forced police to charge. Some Ulster women brushed the police aside and taunted Republican women kneeling and telling their rosaries near the prison. The Ulster faction tried to drown the shouts of the Republicans by singing "God Save the King," and "There Will Always Be an England," The police charged again and this time succeeded in scattering both crowds.

Republican girls reformed to parade. They surrounded every British army officer and Ulster policeman they met, booing and hissing. Some of the girls even raised their arms In an approximation of the Nazi salute. The procession i the city lor two miles. Police did not interfere.

The strike occurred at a Belfast mill where hundreds of employes refused to go to work because of Williams' execution. Although Williams' last wish reportedly was that his death ibou'd not have a stormy aftermath, tension was heightening hourly. It was generally felt that the IRA, which is a strong organization in North Ireland despite being Illegal, would use violence to avenge Williams. Armored cars patrolled the streets and all Belfast was covered by special police, tommygun squads. Large police reinforcements were brought In from other parts of the country.

JESSE HERBERT RUSH SCOTTDALE, Sept. 2 Word has been received here of the sudden death of Jesse Hubert Hush at his home at Hawkins- vllle, Sunday morning He was born at Ohiopyle, the son of the late John and Sarah Rush.

Even Hie Bcilln announcement Hint Japanese Foreign Minister Togo had resigned was construed In ofllcial quarter, as a sign that the Nipponese are considering seriously a change In policy toward Husila. Togo formerly was ambassador to Russia. There always Is a possibility that the Japanese high command at the last moment may decide against such a move unless it is virtually certain of a quick victory because the assault undoubtedly would precipitate immediate reprisals in the form of bombing raids against Tokyo.

The feeling has been growing In Wuehlngton, however, that the pretent alignment In the world war cannot continue with Japan definitely on the Axis tide while pretending to be friendly with Russia and at the time conducting a war agninit the United States and Great Britain, With Germany blasting away at Husiiun lines on the European front and moving again in Egypt and Jupan In position for a quick lUb Siberia, the belief mounted that developments of far-reaching importance are in the making. War analysts who have been following progress of the conflict closely have been reiterating one significant phrase for days: "Watch Siberia."
