Lunghai Objective
British officials denied reports of
arrangements to send all British
| residents from Tsingtao.
Recent land and air operations of
! the Japanese have made evident
j their purpose to seize or render use-
l less all China’s railways. Already
I the Japanese army holds some 2,750
| miles of the 6,000-mile system, the
' only two major lines are in Chinese
hands.
Evidently the next Japanese ob-
jectives are the Lunghai Railway,
the main East-West trunk line, and
the Canton-Hankow Railway, vital
because it carries most of the war
supplies reaching China through
her southern ports and British
Hongkong.
Service Maintained
In spite of terrible punishment
from the air both lines thus far
have been able to maintain irregu-
lar service.
China’s only other avenues of ex-
port are the difficult overland
routes across mid-Asia from Rus-
sia and the narrow gauge railways
from French Indo-China into Yun-
nan and Kwangsi provinces.
China faces the prospect of try-
ing, with only primitive means of
communication and transport at her j
command, to stand against an in-
vader capable of turning her own
system against her.
The fall of Hangchow Christmas
Eve ended the usefulness of rail line
in the coastal provinces south of
Shanghai.
Tavern Moves
Around Corner;
Law Satisfied
VSLETA. (UP)—As the result of
a ruling of the Texas Liquor Con-
trol Board on what constitutes 300
feet measurement from a public in-
stitution for a beer and wine shop,
Frank Candelaria, local tavern op-
erator, stepped around the cornel
and back into business.
A resolution was passed recently
by the Commissioners’ Court pro-
hibiting liquor dispensaries from
operating within 300 feet of a pub-
lic school, church or hospital.
Carl Longuemare, agent for the
board, clamped down on Candelar-
ia’s bar after tape line measure-
ment along property lines showed
the bar within the restricted area
as applied to the Ysleta grade
school.
After Candelaria protested and
appealed to the board for a ruling
on measurement, C. A. Paxton, chief
enforcement agent, advised Longue-
mare that the 300-foot measure-
ment applied from the front door-
step of the school to the bar’s en-
trance.
If Candelaria wants to move the
doors around the corner of his
building so that they are more than
300 feet from the school in the pre-
scribed lines, it is all right with the
board, members told Longuemare.
In compliance with the law, Can-
delaria proceeded to cut a door on
the opposite side of the building tc
make a new entrance.
Big Business-
(Contmued from Page One)
A few hours earlier at his press
conference, when questioned about
his attitude concerning the Jack-
son and Ickes speeches, Mr. Roose-
velt replied indirectly. He cited the
experience of Theodore Roosevelt
under similar circumstances, using
what he termed a parable to show
that the present campaign was not
being levelled at business as a whole
but only against what the earlier
Roosevelt had called certain “male-
factors of great wealth.” He said
the present situation reminded him
of that instance. He then pointed
out that Theodore Roosevelt had
not mentioned all persons of great
wealth as malefactors. This was in-
terpreted as showing that he, too,
feels that some elements are at-
tempting to link the present cam-
paign with an attack on all wealth.
The president said his “parable”
was a pretty good illustration of
how he feels about the Jackson and
Ickes speeches and tended to draw

Without Food
Morgan, a house-boy who some-
f how had managed to charter the
yacht for a two-day cruise to Santa
Catalina Island, severely rationed
the scant supply of food and water
'to the others, but took plenty for

Hanson.

“He was awfully brutal to little

from the engine filled the cabin
and overcame the boy.

Federal men also said they had
been informed Faulding made a
fight for his life.
When Morgan first confronted
him, the officers said, Faulding ap-
parently thought Morgan was
drunk and tried to reason with him.
Morgan’s answer was a bullet.
Faulding dropped the wheel, ran to
his cabin and returned firing his
own pistol, but Morgan mowed him
down as he came back on deck.
