London, Oct. 28.

It is understood that Russia has notified the Non-Inter- vention Committee that she does not wish to contribute any

the further funds towards the Non-Intervention Board and Spanish Coast Control schemes, but will remain a member of the committee.

It is believed M. Ivan Malsky notified Mr. Anthony Eden to this effect last night.

Dr. C. T. Wang Says Nation Bound To Fight To Finish

Washington, Oct. 20. "The Japanese are warring on us new because they wish to stop our Wang, Progress," said Dr. C. T. | Ambassador to Washington, when addressing the National Press Club luncheon to-dny,

He said: "The Chinese have made more progress during the last decade than for centuries. We are ahead of the Japanese in many respects, and they are afraid we will finish them. They cannot stop us. The Chinese people have made up their minds to fight to the last man and the last | büllet."—Reuter.

MAKING FRIENDS 7

Washington, Oct. 28.

Dr. C. T. Wang, in his address to the National Press Club ridiculed the claim made by Japan that she "ouly wanted to make friends with Clina".

"We Chinese cannot believe that, and I do not think the world bellevos it. Never are friends made by attack. If a man culs you, he doesn't make you his friend. He either makes you. his slave, or kills you”—United Press,

HOARDED MILLIONS

(Continued from Page 6.)

In these days of compulsory education there is no excuse for people who hoard money, at least fri Great Britain, where the banks are as Orm as rocks. But it is to be feared that hoarders are illogical, and, as Britain is still the home of freedom and individualism, it is very unlikely that hoarding will ever completely cease.

---It is a queer survival-in-mudern man of an old instinct "to have and to hold," and present. economic and financial conditions have strongly revived it.

To some peopic £1,000 in a safe or a secret hiding-place is much moro' satisfying than a prosale entry In a bank passbook.
