The government of the new state of Manchukuo under Henry Pu- Yi was frankly characterized as one formed and supported artifically by Japanese military and civil officials, without genuine support from the local Man. churian population.

Dese or Manchukuo authorities and commissioners indicated they were skeptical of the genuiness of the testimony obtained from these delegations. "In some cases," they said, "persons who presented statements informed us afterward that the statements had been written or substantally revised by the Japanese and were not to be taken as expressions of their real feelings." All but two of 1550 letters received by the commission from "farmers, tradesmen, students and workers in the towns," they said, were "bitterly hostile to the new 'Manchukuo' government and the Japanese and they appeared to be sincere and spontancous expressions of opinion." China Not Blameless The commission did not hold China blameless for the situation in the east, however, and it sharply indicted the Chinese government for its weakness and for administrative disorders.

It also insisted China must have regard for Japanese economic interests in Manchuria. "The final requisite for a satisfactory solution," the report said, "is temporary international cooperation in the international reconstruction I of China. it is quite as much in the interests of the powers now as it was in 1922 to assist in the reconstruction of China and the maintenance of her sovereignty, her territorial and administrative integrity, 85 indispensable to the maintenance of peace. "The Interests of peace are the same the world over. Any loss of confidence in the application of the principles of the covenant and the pact of Paris in any part of the world diminishes the value and efficacy of those principles where." The results of the proposed advisory conference bet between China and Japan should embodied in four saparate instruments, the report suggested, as follows: 1: A declaration by the Chinese government constituting a special administration for the three eastern (Manchurian) provinces.

2. A Sino-Japanese treaty dealing with Japanese interests: 3: A Sino-Japanese treaty of conciliation, arbitration, non-aggression and mutual assistance. 4. A Sino-Japanese commercial treaty. "The interdependence of the trade of these neighboring countries," the report said, 'and the interests of both call for an economic reapproachment, but there can be no such reapproachment as long as the political relations between them are so unsatisfactory as to call for the use of military force by the one and the force of the boycott by the other."

R. RETURNS HOME AFTER 3-WEEK TRIP (Continued from Page One) he would confer this morning with John F. Curry, Tammany leader, and John H. McCooey, Brooklyn leader, over the gubernatorial situation. "I don't know what's been going here, so I can't comment on it now," the governor said when asked about the convention and the opposition to Lehman's candidacy.

Taking a last look at the railroad car which bore him so many thousands of miles, he said: "I don't think I'll ever be able to sleep in a regular bed any more." As he laughed and waved to the crowd, a friend shouted: you bring home the bacon, governor?" "You bet I did," Roosevelt replied with a chuckle. Will campaign in South Mr. Roosevelt will spend the next two weeks in New York state, going on the road again on Oct, 17. when he will begin a 10-day trip to the south and to the border states of Tennessee, Kentucky and Missouri. Tentative plans for the second long campaign trip also include visits to Indianapolis and either Pittsburgh or Philadelphia.

During the last week of the prestdential drive, Mr. Roosevelt intends going into New England. Aas has been his custom at the of all previous campaigns for public office, Mr. Roosevelt likely will end this, the sle, county seat of his home county, most important of political campaigns, with a speech at Poughkeep- I Dutchess. Mr.

Roosevelt withstood the rigors of his 21-day trip through AS many states with almost 200 platform appearances and stopovers at dozen or more cities was commented upon last night by J. Fred Essary, tr experienced political writer for the Baltimore Sun, in a brief radio talk at Detroit. No Sign of Fatigue Said Essary, "'There is not a sign of fatigue in him. as fresh as a morning glory. I Have never traveled with a candidate who could better endure the rigors of presidential campaigning and I started with Mr.

Taft in 1908." At a farewell party in Detroit last night for all of those who accompanted him on the long journey, Mr. Roosevelt called the trip "a grand time." "I hope," said he, "we can have reunions of our family after March 4 in Washington." At Detroit crowds which filled the naval armory to its capacity of 5000 and extended outside the building heard Mr. Roosevelt talk yesterday on. what he termed "social Justice, through social action." He labelled it a -political address. Two Schools of Philosophy In "our boasted modern civilization," he said there are two schools of philosophy at conflict; one which would "let things alone," and the other "that strives for something new -something that the human race never has attained- social justice through social action." The philosophy of "letting things alone," Roosevelt asserted has "resulted in jungle laws of the survival of so-called fittest." the "The philosophy of social Justice," he continued, "calls definitely, plain19 for the reduction of poverty." He enumerated social legislation toward that end as workmen's compensation, old age insurance, public health, hospitalization of the insane, child labor restriction and rehabilitation of law breakers.

"The followers of the philosophy of let alone," the Democratic nominee continued, "the people who have been decrying all these measures of social welfare, what do they call them? "They call them All right if they are paternalistic, I am a father." After private philanthropy, social organizations, the church, city and state have done their utmost to prevent poverty and alleviate distress, Mr. Roosevelt said "above and beyond that the national government has a responsibility." Roosevelt quoted church assertions to support his contention that social justice "now is accepted by moral leadership of all the great religious groups of the country." "Radical?" he asked. "Yes, and I will show you how radical it is. I am going to cite three examples of what the churches say, the 'radical' churches of America Protestant, Catholic and Jewish." The quotations were, first from the labor sermon sent out by the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America: "Economists now call attention to the fact that the present distribution of wealth and Income which is so unbrotherly in the light of Christian ethics, is also unscientific in that it does not furnish purchasing power to the masses to balance consumption and production in our machine age." Quotes Pope's Encyellcal Second, from the encyclical letter of Pope Plus XI last year: "It 19 patent in our days that not alone is wealth accumulated but 1m- mense power and despotic economic domination are concentrated in the hands of the few and that those few frequently are not the owners but only the trustees and directors of invested funds which they administer at their good pleasure. "This concentration of power has led to a three fold struggle for domination; first, there is the struggle for dictatorship in the economic sphere itself; then thee fierce battle to acquire control of the government so that its resources and authority may be abused in the economic struggle and finally the clash between the governments themselves." Third, from a statement by Rabbi I tral social Edward justice conference L.

Israel, of commission American chairman of the of rabbis: ceil- the "What we need is the stabilization of human justice and happiness and the permanent employment of economic policies which will enable us to preserve the essential human values life amid the changing 85- pects of the economic order." of AUTO PLUNGES INTO COOS BAY; 2 BODIES FOUND (Continued From Page One) rifles, a shotgun and complete hunting and fishing equipment were found in the car.

The president's friends expect him to devote much of his speech in Dee Molnes to the agricultural problem, which was discussed by Governor Roosevelt in the same state only last week. To Discuss Other Issues White house aldes said, however; that the president also would discuss other current issues and Republican leaders expected him to touch on some of the subjects expounded by the Democratio candidate. Coincidentally, the Republican candidate is leaving for his first campaign trip the same day the Demooratio candidate is returning to Albany from his first travels of the campaign, and both sorties were into the west. In contrast, however, President Hoover's trip will be a speedy jump out to Iowa and back, while Governor Roosevelt spent three weeks tit an extended tour of the middle west and far westro Stop at Davenport The president and his party were expected to leave the capital in afternoon, reaching Des Molnes about 4 o'clock tomorrow afternoon! A stop will be made at Davenport, Iowa, tomorrow to pick up Governor Turner and an official reception party and the trip will be interrupted briefly at West Liberty, Iowa City and Newton. The president spent his last hours in Washington revising his speech and conferring with party leaders.

Aides said the address might not be completed until a few hours before he reached Des Moines. Mr. Hoover conferred yesterday with Henry M. Robinson, chairman of the executive committee of the 12 banking and industrial committees, who had Just returned from Chicago where he presided over a meeting devoted the farm mortgage situation. He atso conferred with George Akerson, his former secretary, wha is now publicity director for the Republican campaign in the eastern states.

The Republican national committee has announced plans for delegations from half a dozen farm states to meet President Hoover in Des Moines and listen to his discussion of the agricultural problem. Expect Crowd of 150,000 The committee has estimated that President and Mrs. Hoover will be greeted by a crowd of 150,000 persons at Des Moines. Plans for a parade of 25,000 persons to escort the presldent and his wife to the governor's mansion, have been made. From there he will go to the coliseum to make his address and then to a hotel for a reception.

Phases of President Hoover's address at Des Moines which will deal with the farm situation were gone over today by the chief executive and Secretary Hyde. "I feel that the speech would sppeal to the farmer," Hyde said later. Hyde, who has returned from a swing through the middle west including Ohio, Michigan, Indiana; and Illinois, said he told the president he felt the situation in this states was improving and the Republicans Were setting up effective organizations in preparation for the last minute campaign drive. may just as well be used as a playroom for children or as an emergency guest room.
