ANTI-WHITE GENERAL SEES LONG WAR AHEAD OF JAPAN IN CHINA

GENERAL KEPT HIS SECRET

Warsaw.

Nound the neck of one of Warsaw's many street beggars was hung JA placard reading: "Deaf and dumb.

Grey-haired, wearing tong black Jewish robes, he had been a familine Agurent street corners for the lust twelve years.

Like every beggar, maybe, he had a secret.

His secret was revealed this morn- Ing.

While he was walking up the sleps Warsaw Bynagogue he fell. of a Passers-by, seeing that he did not move, ran to help him. They found him dead.

Police curried him back to his side poverty-stricken room in a street, searched and found his klen-

tity papers.

They told his secret.

He was Count Tinolej Muralow, sixty-eight years old, famous as a Czurist generni who was a notor ious Jew-balter.

le had shared his secret with hi only friend, smother old beggar, who told the police that Muratow escaped from Russia in 1910 nearly starved to death.

Hoping to get sympathy from the Jews he pretended to be one of them

But his Jew-baiting record was a source of danger. Feeling that he might disclose his denilty if he talked he pretended that he could neither speak nor hear.

The World's biggest dam is now being completed in the Columbia River, near the Spokane River in Washington. An idea of the dimen- sions of the damn may be gained from the size of the people working on it.

CHIANG'S LIFE AT STAKE IF

HE SURRENDERS "BY the desperate expedient of reforming the Central

Government, the Chinese leaders apparently hope to cope with the situation arising from the severe reverses suffered by their forces,” said Adm. N. Suetsugu, Japanese Interior Minister, whose sensational anti-White outburst is still engaging world attention, în an inter- view in Tokyo..

"Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek is in a quandary because if he surrenders to Japan his life will be in danger, while if he leaves the present situation as it is China will be dominated by Communistic influence,

"Therefore," went on Adm. Suetsugu, "Japan must be pre- pared for long-term hostilities. The capture of Nanking does not mean the end of the Sino-Japanese conflict,"

Though regretting Adm. Suctsugu's anti-White dc- clarations, informed circles in London stress the fact that they were published be- fore the Admiral became a Minister, and therefore the declarations are unlikely to bring a diplomatic dem- arche.

The indifference of British officiul circles, says the French Javas Agency, is explained by the fact that on the day of publication of the Japanese Admiral's decturations, the Japanese authorities alfirmed to the British Government that the inter- view represented the purely personal opinions of Adm. Suetsugu which were entirely different from those of the Japanese Government.

The Parls newspaper Epoque says that the declarations are highly in- structive as they show that Japan in- tends to attempt to drive out of China not only the British, Freneli and Americans, but also the Ger- mans and Italians.

The Journal goes on to appeal to European nations to form a bloe for the defence of the common interests of western civilisation.

The Right Wing newspaper Le Jour suys that Adm. Suctsugu's utterances are all the more important since the

¡Admiral is regarded as the likely suc-

cessor the premler, Prince Konoye, and since it is further known that his views reflect those of the Japanese |General Stift, says Havas.

Adm. Suctsugu's statements were not published by the German press and semi-oficial circles in Berlin decline to comment, reports Havas.

Nationul-Socialist circles merely recall that Dr. Walter Gross, head of the Germon Racial Welfare Office, defined in 1933 Germany's position to- wards foreign races when he declared that differences among races are a scientific Justinention of Germany's racial policy.

"I la impossible to Bay whether someone belonging to another race is better or worse. Thus we admit for others the same rights which We claim for ourselves," it was stated.

For the last six months experl- ments have been made in combining meats and herbs. At the end of October, the competitors supplied their masterpieces to the eating houses of the town.

Under the supervision of a special eating committee, the entries were reduced to three, and last night, at a distre

great sausage feast nt which three kinds, were served, hot and cold, fresh and smoked, victory went to-a-truly noble delicacy.

It was given the simple name of Augsburg Sausage, and it is hoped to filch the world fame that hitherto has been Frankfort's.
